I did not know this, so I tried with VFs:

 # echo 2 > /sys/class/net/hge1/device/sriov_numvfs
 # echo switchdev > /sys/class/net/hge1/compat/devlink/mode

 # dpdk-testpmd -v -a '0000:05:00.1,representor=[0-1]' -- -i

Still no luck. However, there is this message 3-times in the log:

 mlx5_pci: No available register for Sampler.

It looks like it might be related. What does it mean?
