I have a DL380p G9 with 4port onboard NIC adapter. While the manufacturer says it supports SR-IOV. I am not seeing the capabilities in the OS command output. I intend to use 3 ports for VMs and 1 port for host.
How can I get this adapter to support PCI PAssthrough (or SR-IOV)?
Thank you.

The host interface supports a separate PCI Express function for each
LAN interface. The BCM5719 includes I/O Virtualization (IOV) features
such as 17 receive and 16 transmit queues, and 17 MSI-X vectors with
flexible vector-to-queue association. These IOV features enable the
BCM5719 to support the VMWare® NetQueue and Microsoft® VMQ
technologies.

For HP Broadcom NICs that support Single Root I/O Virtualization
(SR-IOV), virtual functions can be created on the virtualization hosts
and assigned to the virtualized guests.

I am not seeing the capabilities. Is it a driver issue?
