 Hello All,
 We would like to extend the nova 'vhost-user' plug API to attach the port
 to Cisco Nexus 1000v, which supports vhost-user interface. Currently the
 plug-API supports attaching to OVS. The code I'm referring to is
 'plug_vhostuser()' API in 'nova/virt/libvirt/vif.py'.

 I would like to submit changes for this. But One of my colleague mentioned
 there is a proposal to make the NOVA VIF driver more generic. Can some one
 please elaborate on this (or) point to blue-print? I would like to look and
 discuss on the proposal.


This was discussed at the nova mid-cycle, and the plan of record is for Jay
Pipes to push his os_vif repo [1] out for review once he addresses some
feedback he's received already. This will make it easier to do what you're
looking to do Kiran.

Thanks,
Kyle
