-    For some devices which lack support for legacy interrupts, e.g. virtual function
-    (VF) devices, the ``igb_uio`` module may be needed in place of ``uio_pci_generic``.

    If UEFI secure boot is enabled, the Linux kernel may disallow the use of
    UIO on the system. Therefore, devices for use by DPDK should be bound to the
