Open Stack

Chuck's is not the only summit session:

http://summit.openstack.org/cfp/details/81 (the Quantum side of things if
you're mapping network devices)

... and I know Mellanox have also been working on that particular side of
things too.  Perhaps we could all get together at the summit before the
sessions for a show and tell?  We could equally work it all out in the
sessions, but it seems it would be hard to lead a session like that without
having some knowledge up front of what other people have done.

To be fair, our code is basically Vladimir Popovski's (Zardara Storage's)
work, tidied up and with a scheduler check to make sure there are actually
available SRIOV functions on the node before scheduling.  It's there, it's
actually a patch against Folsom at the moment, and it works, but I wouldn't
lay claim to it necessarily being the One True Way to implement this (and I
don't think it has tests enough to pass a review).
