Hei, I've been recently playing around with bhyve passthru and wonder if I could passthru a single port of a dual port NIC to a vm. From a logical point of view I guess that should work, since both ports should get their specific pci bus/port assigned. Otherwise, I'm unsure if such dual port...

Hello, all! I have an interesting setup that I'm hoping to get a little bit of help with. Before I start: please yell at me if some of my formatting is wonky-- I'm used to markdown, but not so much the styling that the FreeBSD Forums asks for, so if I've done something that needs to be...
