Just to clarify one point - you have an application running which was using the 
NICs with DPDK while you remove the uio driver and replace it with ixgbe? I 
would expect doing such a thing to cause problems as stopping the device does 
not cause the NIC BAR memory to be unmapped from the DPDK process. Therefore 
removing the driver providing that memory map and getting another driver to 
start using those same BARs would not be recommended.
