--- Comment #1 from Patrick Robb ([email protected]) --- After discussing this subject with various DPDK developers:

Testing SR-IOV in DPDK does not actually necessitate passing the VF through to the VM. i.e. we can just create virtual functions and test them as is on the baremetal OS (which is currently supported as of 25.07).

Similarly, the first testing we should provide with virtio does not necessitate creation of a VM, as we can just launch a vhost backend and virtio frontend on the baremetal.

If we support VM creation in DTS in the future, it will be for virtio, not sriov passthrough.
