Hello: I am an engineer of Insyde Software Corp that doing BIOS work.
In the past few days, I tried to test SR-IOV function by using your Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 operating systems. When I finished installing the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 operating systems, and used Xen virtual-machine to install guest OS (windows xp and vista), I found that the network controller is not the physical device in guest OS (windows xp and vista). The network controller becomes a virtual device (Realtek RTL8139). Is there any step that I have to enable SR-IOV function in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4? Here is my hardware device list: Cpu: Xeon W5580 Network controller: IntelR Gigabit ET Dual Port Server Adapter (IntelR 82576 Gigabit Ethernet Controller suppert SR-IOV) Virtual-machine: Xen Guest OS: windows xp and vista And BIOS already enable SR-IOV Best Regards, Peter Chiu Insyde Software Corp.(Taichung Office) Office phone: 886-4-2260-2808 Ext:3227 Fax: 886-4-2261-2555 Addr: 32F No. 789 JHONG MING S.
