Apart from FPGA and GPU, we support other device types today and will add more in the future. Most of the operations are common to the drivers we support. For example, all drivers support device discovery, VM creation/deletion, etc. None of them support firmware/shell update today. Also, we need to include the supported product families and any special notes for the driver. So this update removes the per-device-type files for FPGA and GPU, and instead adds per-driver notes.

Cyborg Support Matrix
Cyborg supports specific operations on VMs with attached accelerator resources, which are generally a subset of the full set of VM operations supported by Nova (nova-vm-ops).
In this release, these operations have a dependency on specific Nova patches (nova-patches). They can be expected to work in Cyborg only if and when these Nova patches get merged without significant changes. These operations are not supported in this release since the dependencies are not met.
VM Operation | Command |
---|---|
VM creation | openstack server create |
VM deletion | openstack server delete |
Reboot within VM | ssh to VM and reboot in OS |
Soft reboot | openstack server reboot --soft |
Pause/Unpause | openstack server pause ,
openstack server unpause |
Lock/Unlock | openstack server lock ,
openstack server unlock |
Operations not listed here may or may not work.
