commit 53ab6068a318079757fa76db37fc9838db2b4f24 Author: Ludovic Beliveau <[email protected]> Date: Mon Jul 4 09:45:07 2016 -0400 Don't parse PCI whitelist every time neutron ports are created The neutronv2 API is calling the method get_pci_device_devspec() everytime a neutron port is created in order to get a PciDeviceSpec for a given PCI device. This method creates a new Whitelist (based on the config CONF.pci_passthrough_whitelist) and parses it every time it is called. This is not a huge overhead but this is obvioulsy not needed and a waste of cycles. Since only neutronv2 API uses get_pci_device_devspec(), this commit removes the method in favor of using the Whitelist object directly (like it is done in the PciDevTracker). Change-Id: Idee4e9edecff0672680f323a916201aee8eeeabd Closes-Bug: #1598843 ** Changed in: nova Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo! Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1598843 Title: PCI whitelist is getting parsed every time neutronv2 API create or update a port Status in OpenStack Compute (nova): Fix Released Bug description: Description: ============ This method: def get_pci_device_devspec(pci_dev): dev_filter = Whitelist(CONF.pci_passthrough_whitelist) return dev_filter.get_devspec(pci_dev) is parsing the PCI whitelist eveytime it is called. It's not possible to change the whitelist at runtime (when nova compute is running). Only neutronv2 api calls this method. Whenever a new instance is launched, it is calling the method above to get the device spec corresponding to a PCI device.
