Brief Description
-----------------
The configuration for SR-IOV network device plugin has changed as following:
https://github.com/intel/sriov-network-device-plugin#configurations
For now StarlingX uses its own docker image and doesn’t need to change the configuration. But in the future, this will be a bug when StarlingX updates the docker image to newer version. Because the old version configuration is not supported by latest code.
Severity
--------
Major
Steps to Reproduce
------------------
1.Set up StarlingX AIO Simplex
2. assign the sriovdp label
system host-lock controller-0
system host-label-assign controller-0 sriovdp=enabled
system host-unlock controller-0
vi /etc/pcidp/config.json
Expected Behavior
------------------
The configuration file has changed in upstream as following:
{
"resourceList": [{
"resourceName": "intel_sriov_netdevice",
"selectors": {
"vendors": ["8086"],
"devices": ["154c", "10ed"],
"drivers": ["i40evf", "ixgbevf"]
}
},
{
"resourceName": "intel_sriov_dpdk",
"selectors": {
"vendors": ["8086"],
"devices": ["154c", "10ed"],
"drivers": ["vfio-pci"],
"pfNames": ["enp0s0f0","enp2s2f1"]
}
},
{
"resourceName": "mlnx_sriov_rdma",
"isRdma": true,
"selectors": {
"vendors": ["15b3"],
"devices": ["1018"],
"drivers": ["mlx5_ib"]
}
}
]
}
Actual Behavior
----------------
The configuration file in StarlingX is still old version:
{
"resourceList": [
{
"resourceName": "pci_sriov_net_physnet1",
"rootDevices": [
"0000:41:00.0"
],
"sriovMode": true,
"deviceType": "vfio"
}
]
}

Test Activity

Developer Testing
At some point, we will discuss whether we should move to a new version of the sriov device plugin. But this is not considered stx.2.0 gating as the current image included in stx is working.
