Hi, ALL
If the raid controller supports SR-IOV, does storport supports VFs?
Do i need to add special codes in the miniport driver to enable the VFs?

WIdows only supports SRIOV for network adapters.
Is that means the raid controller with SR-IOV cannot be used under Windows
currently?

The controller definitely CAN be used, but SR-IOV feature will not be used.
I guess there is not much gain of that, because HBAs can run DMA to memory that belong to the VM, anyway. It’s just a bit of cost of passing CDBs from a VM to HyperV.
