Hi All,
I want the Ethernet Card to be used for PCI Passthrough device. Note that,
I have installed openstack-mitaka release on host (Cent OS 7.2).
[root at localhost ~(keystone_admin)]# lspci -nn | grep 154d
07:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation Ethernet 10G 2P X520
Adapter [8086:154d] (rev 01)
07:00.1 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation Ethernet 10G 2P X520
Adapter [8086:154d] (rev 01)
[root at localhost ~(keystone_admin)]#
Here goes the configurations done in nova.conf
pci_alias={"vendor_id":"8086", "product_id":"154d",
"device_type":"type-PCI", "name":"a1"}
pci_passthrough_whitelist = [{"vendor_id":"8086","product_id":"154d"}]
scheduler_default_filters=RetryFilter,AvailabilityZoneFilter,RamFilter,ComputeFilter,ComputeCapabilitiesFilter,ImagePropertiesFilter,CoreFilter,PciPassthroughFilter
MariaDB [nova]> select pci_stats from compute_nodes;

MariaDB [nova]>
There is a check in Nova ( get_device_type in
https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py)
that determines if a given PCI device is:
1) A normal PCI device,
2) An SR-IOV physical function (PF); or
3) An SR-IOV virtual function (VF).
If it's a normal PCI device or a virtual function it's considered for
passthrough, if it's a PF it's not (considered to be owned by the
host/hypervisor).
What I understand, currently it is not possible to pass through a physical
function to an OpenStack instance. Furthermore I have configured the
“device_type”: “type-PCI” as stated above in nova.conf. Then why it
shows “dev_type:
type-PF” in MariaDB?
Can anyone please let me know is it a bug in openstack-mitaka release or I
have missed anything ? Please feel free to let me know if additional
information is needed.
Regards,
Chinmaya
