Hi Shunli,

I am not aware of any prevailing python utils for this. An alternative is to 
shell out Linux commands to collect the information. After a quick search, it 
looks xenapi [1] uses “lspci -vmmnk” to collect PCI device detail info and “ls 
/sys/bus/pci/devices/<pci_device>/” to detect the PCI device type (PF or VF). 
FWIW, you might find it helpful to refer the implementation of Nova’s xenapi 
driver for gettiing PCI resources [2]. Hope it helps.

Best regards,

Subject: [openstack-dev] [zun][unit test] Any python utils can collect pci info?

Hi all,

For https://blueprints.launchpad.net/zun/+spec/support-pcipassthroughfilter 
this BP, Nova use the libvirt to collect the PCI device info. But for zun, 
libvirt seems is a heavy dependecies. Is there a python utils that can be used 
to collect the PCI device detail info? Such as the whether it's a PF of network 
pci device of VF, the device capabilities, etc.

Note: For 'lspci -D -nnmm' , there are some info can not get.


Thanks
