Hi all, In cyborg pre-PTG meeting conducted last week[0],shaohe from Intel introduced SmartNIC support integrations,and we've reached some initial agreements: The workflow for a user to create a server with network acceleartor(accelerator is managed by Cyborg) is: 1. create a port with accelerator request specified into binding_profile field NOTE: Putting the accelerator request(device_profile) into binding_profile is one possible solution implemented in our POC. Another possible solution,adding a new attribute to port object for cyborg specific use instead of using binding_profile, is discussed in shanghai Summit[1]. This needs check with neutron team, which neutron team would suggest? 2.create a server with the port created Cyborg-nova-neutron integration workflow can be found on page 3 of the slide[2] presented in pre-PTG. And we also record the introduction! Please find the pre-PTG meeting vedio record in [3] and [4], they are the same, just for different region access.
