Ian, I hope that you guys are in agreement on this. But take a look at the wiki: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/PCI_passthrough_SRIOV_support and see if it has any difference from your proposals. IMO, it's the critical piece of the proposal, and hasn't been specified in exact term yet. I'm no

Hi Yongli, Thank you for addressing my comments, and for adding the encryption card use case. One thing that I want to point out is that in this use case, you may not use the pci-flavor in the --nic option because it's not a neutron feature. I have a few more questions: 1. pci-flavor-attrs is con

Yunhong, Just try to understand your use case: -- a VM can only work with cards from vendor V1 -- a VM can work with cards from both vendor V1 and V2 So stats in the two flavors will overlap in the PCI flavor solution. I'm just trying to say that this is something that needs to be

In any case, we don't have to decide this now. If we simply allowed the whitelist to add extra arbitrary properties to the PCI record (like a group name) and return it to the central server, we could use that in scheduling for the minute as a group name, we wouldn't implement the APIs for flavors
