sriov network device plugin in a virtualized environment #289

Open adrianchiris opened 3 years ago

adrianchiris commented 3 years ago

What issue would you like to bring attention to?

PR#272 added support for VFIO with no_iommu option,

I noticed there is no documentation about the support scope of sriov-network-device-plugin in a virtualized environment.

Are we just missing documentation here? or sriov-network-device-plugin does not support other virtualized scenarios

What is the impact of this issue?

Users are unclear of if/how sriov-network-device-plugin works in a virtualized environment.

Do you have a proposed response or remediation for the issue?

Add additional documentation for sriov-network-device-plugin in a virtualized environment.

@adrianchiris there is a section about Virtual Deployments in Readme. it was added when the common selector pciAddress introduced. Do you think we shall add more content/examples?

adrianchiris commented 3 years ago

I requested to add the preface of virtual deployments in PR#272.

to me it seems (documentation wise) we jumped straight to no-iommu support, i think we are missing the non-dpdk use case and examples assuming we officially support it.

PR #307 adds additional information around CNI

@martinkennelly do you know any existing igb_uio in VM doc that we can link to in sriov device plugin doc?
