This patch implements a new driver for Intel Nic Card. It can discover the device and report it to Placement service with CUSTOM_NIC resource class and specific traits. Operator should specify the device and correspond profile in a config file so that nic's driver can read the info from this file. Please check the test report in the following link: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Cyborg/TestReport/IntelNic Change-Id: Ida0ba8f24b9e226da7f3d7a85fc372247e5281a5 Implements: blueprint sriov-smartnic-support

The Intel nic driver defines the Intel x710 NIC's data model in
|
|
Cyborg. It also proposes a standard configuration format to manage
|
|
networking related devices. The Intel X710 NIC supports DDP(Dynamic
|
|
Device Personalization) which provides the ability to reconfigure the
|
|
packet processing pipeline to support a broader range of traffic types.
|
|
It also supports SR-IOV technology, each physical card can be virtualized
|
|
into mulitiple VFs.
