+igb_uio can not be used when running l3fwd-power
+------------------------------------------------
+
+**Description**:
+ Link Status Change(LSC) interrupt and packet receiving interrupt are all
enabled in l3fwd-power
+ APP. Because of UIO only support one interrupt, so these two kinds of
interrupt need to share
+ one, and the receiving interrupt have the higher priority, so can't get the
right link status.
+
+**Implication**:
+ When insmod ``igb_uio`` and running l3fwd-power APP, link status getting
doesn't work properly.
+
+**Resolution/Workaround**:
+ Use vfio-pci when LSC and packet receiving interrupt enabled.
+
+**Affected Environment/Platform**:
+ ALL.
+
+**Driver/Module**:
+ ``igb_uio`` module.
