Hi,
I am trying to update to these drivers(ixgbe-3.18.7.tar.gz
, ixgbevf-2.11.3.tar.gz)  from existing versions of drivers.

With my existing drivers, I can see multiple virtual function for each
physical port  properly created.

for eg:  modprobe ixgbe max_vfs=2
This creates two virtual functions for each Physical port.
eth0, eth2, eth3 every physical contains two virtual functions. I can
verify this with lspci, ethtool -i bus info.

I have replaced existing drivers with ixgbe-3.18.7.tar.gz
, ixgbevf-2.11.3.tar.gz, (by updating them in /lib/modules/.. )
then tried , modprobe ixgbe max_vfs=2

This creates two virtual function only for "FIRST PORT".
In my case eth0 only contains two virtual function.  eth2, eth3 are not
showing any Virtual function .
Any idea about this ?  Is there any issue with these drivers ?? I need to
load them in any other way ??
Please let me know.
Thanks.

PS: Although virtual function are properly created in existing driver,
 other functionality is not working.
