Hi Ales,
what do you mean with "not maintained for a long time"?
DPDK is heavily developed and make the linux network extremely fast.
I don't think, that SR-IOV can replace it, because packets must be still processed by the kernel, which is really slow and CPU demanding.

Sure,
the feature was only experimental and not maintained for a long time. The replacement is to use SR-IOV
which is supported by oVirt.
Thanks,
Ales
