[libvirt] RFC exposing SRIOV PF<->VF relationships

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It would be helpful to have an API that exposes the relationship between SR IOV physical functions (PFs) and virtual functions (VFs). I'm thinking of implementing three new API calls and adding a small amount of additional information in the node device pci device capability, as in the attached patch. Let me know what you think.

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Added basis of SR IOV PF<->VF relationship support

* Added three functions to node device API
* Added a little additional information to the node device PCI device capabilities to track the PF<->VFs relationships.
