DTS: Modprobe vfio and vfio-pci at testrun setup

Bug ID: 1614
Summary: DTS: Modprobe vfio and vfio-pci at testrun setup
Product: DPDK
Version: 25.03
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: Normal
Component: DTS
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---

Currently users have to modprobe vfio-pci before running DTS. I figure it is best if we have:

if config.dut.os_driver_for_dpdk == "vfio-pci":
send "modprobe vfio" to dut
send "modprobe vfio-pci" to dut

If os_driver_for_dpdk == "mlx5_core" of course the vfio modprobe is not needed.

And, I assume we do not need to support igb_uio.
