Hi Rami,

Yes, I mean “uio_pci_generic” kernel module.

I will update the change accordingly.

Thanks.

module

Hi Tone,

The three kernel modules which can be used for DPDK binding are vfio-pci, 
uio_pci_generic and igb_uio. Don't you mean here uio_pci_generic ?

When binding the devices used by DPDK to the "uio-pci" kernel module,
the IOMMU should be disabled in order not to break the
because of the virtual / physical address mapping.

The patch clarifies the IOMMU configuration on both x86_64 and arm64
systems.
