No description
Sometimes it is not desirable to bind SR-IOV VFs to drivers. This can save host side resource usage by VF instances that will be assigned to VMs. Add a new PCI sysfs interface "sriov_drivers_autoprobe" to control that from the PF. To modify it, echo 0/n/N (disable probe) or 1/y/Y (enable probe) to: /sys/bus/pci/devices/<DOMAIN:BUS:DEVICE.FUNCTION>/sriov_drivers_autoprobe Note that this must be done before enabling VFs. The change will not take effect if VFs are already enabled. Simply, one can disable VFs by setting sriov_numvfs to 0, choose whether to probe or not, and then re-enable the VFs by restoring sriov_numvfs.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
