implement sriov token server chain element #246
Comments
@pperiyasamy Would it make sense here to simply include the token in the Mechanism returned by the NSE? |
@edwarnicke just returning token id might work for dedicated VF case (i.e. one VF per client connection). I thought storing (via resource pool client communicating assigned VF pci address back into NSE with another service request) and then sending VF pci address into mechanism parameter might be useful for VLAN sub interface case. can we implement this later ? or you have other thoughts ? |
The sdk-sriov repo already contains sriov token client chain element which can be used by NSCs to create service request with tokenID to request for VF attachment.
But there is no server chain element exists so that NSEs can issue available token id via mechanism parameter for every client connection request, this token id can be later used by forwarder to attach a dedicated VF for every client connection. This chain element should be also an idempotent for the existing client connection. When no tokens are present for new client connections, then consider skipping it and execute subsequent chain element.
