Log:
   SR-IOV support added to igb

   What this provides is support for the 'virtual function'
   interface that a FreeBSD VM may be assigned from a host
   like KVM on Linux, or newer versions of Xen with such
   support.

   When the guest is set up with the capability, a special
   limited function 82576 PCI device is present in its virtual
   PCI space, so with this driver installed in the guest that
   device will be detected and function nearly like the bare
   metal, as it were.

   The interface is only allowed a single queue in this configuration
   however initial performance tests have looked very good.

   Enjoy!!


do these extra devices turn up in a standard ifconfig output?
in other words, can we assign them to jails using vimage?
