Hi Navdeep,

The errors you are pointing out shouldn't cause  error while creating instance with SR-IOV/PCI passthrough.
They are part of the SR-IOV nic capabilities feature which is not completed yet.

Libvirt "virsh nodedev-list" command will show you the list of nic and this method [1] will look it in the hypervisor.
For some reason you have a mismatch here. You need to compare them.  Anyway if there is a mismatch it just won't report the capabilities of the nic.
As I mentioned above I think this is not the issue for the error while creating instance

Subject: [Openstack] Openstack SRIOV and PCI passthrough error while creating instance

Dear All,

I am getting an error while creating SRIOV enabled instances following the guide from Openstack pike https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/pike/admin/config-sriov.html<https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.openstack.org%2Fneutron%2Fpike%2Fadmin%2Fconfig-sriov.html&data=02%7C01%7Cmoshele%40mellanox.com%7C7035d805a74d45ff0bbe08d56692fd3e%7Ca652971c7d2e4d9ba6a4d149256f461b%7C0%7C0%7C636527703870300090&sdata=Oljh3%2Ff1B%2FLCsNxHIUkS%2FgLzTBkpOY3XaWBixYKWOaQ%3D&reserved=0>



I want to start an instance on openstack pike with SRIOV enabled NICs. However, I am getting a Libvirt error regarding the node name. The error looks weird as the node name is not matching the interface name on the host machine or in the configuration files.

The correct interface name is enp129s0f0. However, I am getting the node name as net_enp129s2_b2_87_6e_13_a1_5e' which i believe is the reason behind the failure of vm creation on openstack. Please if someone could help me understand how the node name is passed on to the Libvirt from openstack or how can I resolve this issue.
