    modules: Add kmod-ixgbevf kernel module for Intel(R) 10GbE Virtual Ethernet support
    
    These adapters support SR-IOV. Thus the host can assign Virtual Functions
    (VFs) to different VMs by the PCI-E Passthrough (e.g. VFIO for KVM), to
    gain different advantages (performance, VF to VF communications, host
    kernel offload, etc.).
