Report the maximum possible number of VFs for an SRIOV PF, like this:
<capability type='virtual_functions' maxCount='7'>
...
</capability>
I've just discovered that the virtual_functions and physical_functions
capabilities are not supported in the virNodeDeviceParse functions,
only in virNodeDeviceFormat (I suppose because they are only reported,
not set from XML). This should probably be remedied, but is less
immediately useful than the current patch.

<h1>Node devices XML format</h1>

<h2><a name="NodedevAttributes">Node Device XML</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
There are several libvirt functions, all with the
|
|
prefix <code>virNodeDevice</code>, which deal with management of
|
|
host devices that can be handed to guests via passthrough as
|
|
<hostdev> elements
|
|
in <a href="formatdomain.html#elementsHostDev">the domain XML</a>.
|
|
These devices are represented as a hierarchy, where a device on
|
|
a bus has a parent of the bus controller device; the root of the
|
|
hierarchy is the node named "computer".
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
When represented in XML, a node device uses the
|
|
top-level <code>device</code> element, with the following
|
|
elements present according to the type of device:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt><code>name</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>The name for this device. The name will be alphanumeric,
|
|
with words separated by underscore. For many devices, the
|
|
name is just the bus type and address, as in
|
|
"pci_0000_00_02_1" or "usb_1_5_3", but some devices are able
|
|
to provide more specific names, such as
|
|
"net_eth1_00_27_13_6a_fe_00".
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>parent</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>If this element is present, it names the parent device (that
|
|
is, a controller to which this node belongs).
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>capability</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>This node appears for each capability that libvirt
|
|
associates with a node. A mandatory
|
|
attribute <code>type</code> lists which category the device
|
|
belongs to, and controls which further subelements will be
|
|
present to describe the node:
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt><code>system</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Describes the overall host. Sub-elements include:
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt><code>product</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>If present, a simple text string giving the product
|
|
name of the system.</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>hardware</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Describes the hardware of the system, including
|
|
sub-elements for <code>vendor</code>, <code>version</code>,
|
|
<code>serial</code>, and <code>uuid</code>.</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>firmware</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Describes the firmware of the system, including
|
|
sub-elements for <code>vendor</code>, <code>version</code>,
|
|
and <code>release_date</code>.</dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>pci</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Describes a device on the host's PCI bus. Sub-elements
|
|
include:
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt><code>domain</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Which domain the device belongs to.</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>bus</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Which bus within the domain.</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>slot</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Which slot within the bus.</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>function</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Which function within the slot.</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>product</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Product details from the device ROM, including an
|
|
attribute <code>id</code> with the hexadecimal product
|
|
id, and an optional text description of that id.</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>vendor</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>Vendor details from the device ROM, including an
|
|
attribute <code>id</code> with the hexadecimal vendor
|
|
id, and an optional text name of that vendor.</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>iommuGroup</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
This optional element describes the "IOMMU group" this
|
|
device belongs to. If the element exists, it has a
|
|
mandatory <code>number</code> attribute which tells
|
|
the group number used for management of the group (all
|
|
devices in group "n" will be found in
|
|
"/sys/kernel/iommu_groups/n"). It will also have a
|
|
list of <code>address</code> subelements, each
|
|
containing the PCI address of a device in the same
|
|
group. The toplevel device will itself be included in
|
|
this list.
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>capability</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
This optional element can occur multiple times. If it
|
|
exists, it has a mandatory <code>type</code> attribute
|
|
which will be set to
|
|
either <code>physical_function</code>
|
|
or <code>virtual_functions</code>. If the type
|
|
is <code>physical_function</code>, there will be a
|
|
single <code>address</code> subelement which contains
|
|
the PCI address of the SRIOV Physical Function (PF)
|
|
that is the parent of this device (and this device is,
|
|
by implication, an SRIOV Virtual Function (VF)). If
|
|
the type is <code>virtual_functions</code>, then this
|
|
device is an SRIOV PF, and the capability element will
|
|
have a list of <code>address</code> subelements, one
|
|
for each VF on this PF. If the host system supports
|
|
reporting it (via the "sriov_maxvfs" file in the
|
|
device's sysfs directory) the capability element will
|
|
also have an attribute named <code>maxCount</code>
|
|
which is the maximum number of SRIOV VFs supported by
|
|
this device, which could be higher than the number of
|
|
VFs that are curently active <span class="since">since
|
|
1.3.0</span>; in this case, even if there are
|
|
currently no active VFs the virtual_functions
|
|
capabililty will still be shown.
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>numa</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
This optional element contains information on the PCI device
|
|
with respect to NUMA. For example, the optional
|
|
<code>node</code> attribute tells which NUMA node is the PCI
|
|
device associated with.
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt><code>pci-express</code></dt>
|
|
<dd>
|
|
This optional element contains information on PCI Express part of
|
|
the device. For example, it can contain a child element
|
|
<code>link</code> which addresses the PCI Express device's link.
|
|
While a device has its own capabilities
|
|
(<code>validity='cap'</code>), the actual run time capabilities
|
|
are negotiated on the device initialization
|
|
(<code>validity='sta'</code>). The <code>link</code> element then
|
|
contains three attributes: <code>port</code> which says in which
|
|
port is the device plugged in, <code>speed</code> (in
|
|
GigaTransfers per second) and <code>width</code> for the number
|
|
of lanes used. Since the port can't be negotiated, it's not
|
|
exposed in <code>./pci-express/link/[@validity='sta']</code>.
