John McNamara	ccf5fd6045	doc: warn about UIO not working with UEFI secure boot Added notes to the documentation warning that if UEFI secure boot is enabled the Linux kernel may disallow the use of UIO on the system, and a suggested workaround of using the vfio-pci kernel module instead of igb_uio or uio_pci_generic.

Shahaf Shuler	0db52e6694	doc: move kernel drivers to a new chapter The UIO and VFIO sections should not be part of the "Compiling the DPDK Target from Source" chapter, as it is PMD specific and not true for all PMDs. Instead, moving those sections to a new chapter which include all kernel drivers being used along with the different PMDs.

doc: warn about UIO not working with UEFI secure boot

Added notes to the documentation warning that if UEFI secure boot
is enabled the Linux kernel may disallow the use of UIO on the
system, and a suggested workaround of using the vfio-pci kernel
module instead of igb_uio or uio_pci_generic.

doc: move kernel drivers to a new chapter

The UIO and VFIO sections should not be part of
the "Compiling the DPDK Target from Source" chapter,
as it is PMD specific and not true for all PMDs.

Instead, moving those sections to a new chapter
which include all kernel drivers being used along with
the different PMDs.
