All After further review with Siva the use case is for connecting SR islands over RSVP-TE core.
So this is for stitching SR-TE on the edge islands binding SID to core RSVP-TE tunnel. One major gap of RSVP-TE is the VRF / VPN coloring capability that in order to achieve per VRF coloring mapping of VRF to a discrete TE tunnel requires a separate loopback and static routes to egress PE so it does not scale. So for as many RSVP mapped tunnels that exist you need that many loopbacks and static routes for the next hop rewrite to the RSVP tunnel next hop. So this Major gap is filled with SR VRF and app flow coloring capability that with SR-TE Policy BSID bound to candidate path can provide the scalability per VRF coloring. So at the edges you may have many 100s of colored RSVP tunnels but as the core does not scale you can not provide a 1-1 mapping of SR-TE tunnel to RSVP tunnel. So you would have many to 1 mappings of SR-TE tunnels to single or aggregate. So in my mind to only way the BSID would come into play is if you could do a 1-1 mapping of SR-TE tunnel to RSVP tunnel. Technically that is not possible. For PCE to compute end to end path in this scenario does RSVP-TE require the BSID for the stitching even if a many SR-TE colors to single RSVP-TE tunnel mapping. I would not think so. If we think that for PCE to build the end to end path even for the end to end path in this scenario requires BSID binding to the RSVP-TE single path to make contiguous end to end then I agree technically we do need to make this inclusive of RSVP-TE. I think we need to clear this up and if this use case is really not feasible then we should remove any mention of BSID use with RSVP-TE tunnel.
