Public bug reported: https://review.openstack.org/275616 Dear bug triager. This bug was created since a commit was marked with DOCIMPACT. Your project "openstack/neutron" is set up so that we directly report the documentation bugs against it. If this needs changing, the docimpact-group option needs to be added for the project. You can ask the OpenStack infra team (#openstack-infra on freenode) for help if you need to.
commit 8ff25e725e148acf83ef6e1f6a3c445da00e3932 Author: Moshe Levi <[email protected]> Date: Mon Jan 4 11:14:58 2016 +0200 hardware offload support for openvswitch In Kernel 4.8 we introduced Traffic Control (TC see [1]) hardware offloads framework for SR-IOV VFs which allows us to configure the NIC [2]. Subsequent OVS patches [3] allow us to use the TC framework to offload OVS datapath rules. This patch allow OVS mech driver to bind direct (SR-IOV) port. This will allow to offload the OVS flows using tc to the SR-IOV NIC and gain accelerate OVS.
