This bug was created since a commit was marked with DOCIMPACT. Your project "openstack/neutron" is set up so that we directly report the documentation bugs against it. If this needs changing, the docimpact-group option needs to be added for the project. You can ask the OpenStack infra team (#openstack-infra on freenode) for help if you need to. commit 2c60278992d5a217241054444ed0ca6e1d2f3e5c Author: Brent Eagles <beag...@redhat.com> Date: Mon Nov 9 09:26:53 2015 -0330 Adding a VNIC type for physical functions This change adds a new VNIC type to distinguish between virtual and physical functions in SR-IOV. The new VNIC type 'direct-physical' deviates from the behavior of 'direct' VNICs for virtual functions. While neutron tracks the resource as a port, it does not currently perform any management functions. Future changes may extend the segment mapping functionality that is currently based on agent configuration to include direct types. However, the direct-physical VNICs will not have functional parity with the other SR-IOV VNIC types in that quality of service and port security functionality is not available. APIImpact DocImpact: Add description for new 'direct-physical' VNIC type.
