not able to see the card, and I've got message as below

[ 5.920756] ixgbe: Intel(R) 10 Gigabit PCI Express Network Driver - version 3.19.1-k

[ 5.920786] ixgbe: Copyright (c) 1999-2014 Intel Corporation.

[ 5.920873] ixgbe 0000:03:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 40 (level, low) -> IRQ 40

[ 5.920908] ixgbe 0000:03:00.0: setting latency timer to 64

[ 5.938627] ixgbe 0000:03:00.0: failed to load because an unsupported SFP+ or QSFP module type was detected.

[ 5.938690] ixgbe 0000:03:00.0: Reload the driver after installing a supported module.

[ 5.938760] ixgbe 0000:03:00.0: PCI INT A disabled

[ 5.938830] ixgbe 0000:03:00.1: PCI INT B -> GSI 44 (level, low) -> IRQ 44

and there is something I find out from lspci commnad that the flag is not marked as bus master, so I am wondering if they are related

I also set allow_unsupported_modules=1, it seemed fine, but the cards cannot see the traffic
