-A small kernel module to set up the device, map device memory to user-space and register interrupts.
-In many cases, the standard ``uio_pci_generic`` module included in the Linux kernel

-    ``uio_pci_generic`` module doesn't support the creation of virtual functions.

-As an alternative to the ``uio_pci_generic``, there is the ``igb_uio`` module
-which can be found in the repository `dpdk-kmods <http://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-kmods>`_.

-   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
