            Bug ID: 229435
           Summary: ixv SR-IOV currently broken (affects EC2)
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: cperciva at FreeBSD.org

SR-IOV support in the ixv driver is currently broken.  As a result, FreeBSD
12.0 is unable to access the network on EC2 instances where this hardware is
used.

If this is not fixed before the release, we should remove the --sriov flag from
src/release/Makefile.ec2 so that the AMIs will be marked as not supporting the
ixv hardware (at which point those EC2 instances will provide a Xen virtual
network device instead).
