When we worked on H release, we target for basic PCI support like accelerator 
card or encryption card etc. I think SR-IOV network support is more complex and 
requires more effort, in both Nova side and Neutron side. We are working on 
some enhancement in Nova side now. But the whole picture may need more 
time/discussion.

Thanks
