Hello, Yes, sorry, the code flow I've presented was taken from investigation of vfio_pci, but I'm not sure which hardware exactly (I've tested also some other HWs). If it still doesn't make sense, maybe those are wrong assumptions.
Should I resent this question to u...@dpdk.org ? I don't want to cause confusion now when it's here already.
