pci_passthrough_whitelist in nova.conf can only filter PCI devices by product_id and vender_id

[Young]

I want to use SR-IOV in Openstack.
I have one NIC with two slots. Only one slot is plugged in. So the NIC has two Physical Function. I enabled sr-iov on this machine. So I got 32 virtual functions(16 virtual function for each physical function).
Now I want to make openstack only use the 16 virtual functions for the physical functions which is plugged in. However, I found that only product_id and vender_id can be the filter criteria when I looked up the code in pci/pci_whitelist.py(Line 40, _WHITELIST_SCHEMA).
I hope I could filter PCI devices by physical functions like this pci_passthrough_whitelist=[{ "vendor_id":"8086","product_id":"1515", "phys_function.0.3": "0x0"}].

There is a same problem for the pci_alias. I can't use extra_info to define the pci_alias filter(The physical function info is in extra_info)

patch from review works ok with icehouse release like this:

pci_alias = { "name": "sriov_eth0", "vendor_id": "14e4", "product_id": "16af", "extra_info.phys_function": "0000:01:00.0" }
pci_alias = { "name": "sriov_eth1", "vendor_id": "14e4", "product_id": "16af", "extra_info.phys_function": "0000:01:00.1" }
pci_passthrough_whitelist = [{"vendor_id": "14e4", "product_id": "16af"}]

nova flavor-key sriovtest2 set "pci_passthrough:alias"="sriov_eth0:1,sriov_eth1:1"
