** Description changed: In order to have the correct VF driver to support SR-IOV in Azure, the Mellanox OFED distribution needs to be included in the kernel and the image. Mellanox's drivers are not upstream, but they are available from here: https://www.mellanox.com/page/products_dyn?product_family=26&mtag=linux_sw_drivers&ssn=3nnhohirh5htv6dnp1uk7tf487 While this configuration is not explicitly listed as supported in the release notes, Microsoft and Mellanox engineers are working on the - corresponding Windows Server 216 PF driver to support this VF driver in + corresponding Windows Server 2016 PF driver to support this VF driver in operation in Ubuntu guests. I file file a corresponding rebase request to pick up the PCI passthrough and other SR-IOV work done for the Hyper-V capabilities in the upstream 4.9 kernel. Only 64-bit support for Ubuntu 16.04's HWE kernel is needed.
