12:45:31 alex_xu nova api meeting is in 15 mins at #openstack-meeting-4
12:50:32 claudiub moshele: hello. around? :)
12:51:04 moshele claudiub: hi
12:51:34 claudiub moshele: great. :) If you have a couple of minutes, I have a couple of questions regarding sr-iov
12:51:48 moshele claudiub: ok
12:51:53 claudiub and more explicitly, some implementation details.
12:52:45 claudiub moshele: so, whatever guides i've found online are kind of outdated, or do not contain all the information i need. :)
12:53:56 claudiub moshele: well, first of all: let's say I have a NIC with SR-IOV capabilities, and I have a couple of free VFs. I'm already reporting them to nova in the virt driver as PCI devices with the type type-VF.
12:54:32 moshele claudiub: yes if they are in the whitelist
12:54:41 claudiub and they're whitelisted in the compute node's conf and nova-api's conf
12:54:45 claudiub up to this point, that should be fine IMO.
12:55:08 moshele whitelisted in the compute conf not need in the nova api
12:55:19 claudiub moshele: aliased, sorry. :)
12:55:29 claudiub aliased in the api conf file
12:55:45 moshele the alise should be in nova-api and nova-cmpute
12:56:13 claudiub oh, ok. i only knew about the alias in the nova-api. how does the alias help in the compute node?
12:56:50 claudiub now... I was thinking that I could claim those VFs the same way I would claim other PCI devices: through flavor extra_specs pci_passthrough:alias="the_alias:1"
12:56:58 moshele claudiub: for resize and migration
12:57:56 claudiub moshele: hmm, meaning that the nova compute manager will check if the destination has those aliases as well?
12:58:23 moshele claudiub: yes
12:58:36 claudiub moshele: hm, interesting. i did not know that. :) good to know.
13:00:31 claudiub anyways, continueing my idea. so, I would end up spawning an instance, and that instance would have in the instance.pci_requests.requests an VF. Now, I've been told before that all I have to do is just plug that VF into the VM and that's it
13:02:11 claudiub but that VF would not be tied to any neutron port, meaning that it there won't be normally any dhcp server serving it. I've been told that "the users would have to take care of that". is that ok?
13:02:35 claudiub nor would it have security groups applied to it.
13:07:05 openstackgerrit Rawan Herzallah proposed openstack/nova master: Adding NVMEoF for libvirt driver https://review.openstack.org/482640
13:10:42 claudiub moshele: also, the alias is quite limiting, IMO. for example, I have 2 identical SR-IOV NICs, which means same vendor id and same product id, but they're actually connected to different networks. the alias config option only allows the following fields: vendor_id, product_id, dev_type, name (alias). which means that I don't have any way to specify which network I actually want. :)
13:10:49 moshele claudiub: see this https://docs.openstack.org/mitaka/networking-guide/config-sriov.html

13:13:06 openstackgerrit Stephen Finucane proposed openstack/nova master: doc: Use consistent author, section for man pages https://review.openstack.org/482960
13:13:41 moshele claudiub: there is SR-IOV for networking solution is work with the sriovnicswitch mechanism driver which is linux ip link based so maybe you need to add support there to windows
13:14:25 cdent avolkov`++
13:14:38 moshele claudiub: what you talking is pci passthrough when neutron is not aware of the SR-IOV network interface
13:14:56 stephenfin jaypipes: IF you get a chance to look through that doc-migration series again, I'd be mighty appreciative. Fixed the issue efried pointed out
13:15:07 stephenfin Sorry - gibi
13:15:24 jaypipes stephenfin: you mean the one you just rebased and pushed above?
13:15:37 claudiub moshele: are both cases viable?
13:16:18 stephenfin jaypipes: Yup https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:doc-migration+project:openstack/nova+status:open
13:16:58 jaypipes stephenfin: sure thing :)
13:17:01 efried stephenfin So that wasn't intended to be to my attn?
13:17:03 moshele claudiub: yes both of them should work
13:17:17 stephenfin efried: Nope, as always you can ignore me :)
13:18:00 claudiub moshele: aham. interesting. well, i'll look into the neutron side as well then. :) thanks for the help. :)
13:18:19 moshele claudiub: np :)
