Subject: Re: [Openstack] [Neutron]Can Neutron support multiple mechanism 
drivers on the same compute node

It can as long as they use different vnic_types. When the agent-based mechanism 
drivers determine if they can bind a port on the compute node they examine the 
host as well as the vnic_type.

This function is what an agent-based mech driver uses:

thought the answer was “no”. But I start to doubt when I read configuration 
guide about SR-IOV driver. Particularly the following bugs:
SR-IOV port doesn’t reach OVS port on same compute node: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1492228
No connectivity when Launching an instance with Openvswitch interface when 
using SR-IOV: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1174864

Can anyone kindly help me to clarify it? Thanks a lot!
