*** Rahul has joined #openstack-cyborg14:15
*** Rahul is now known as Guest7311114:15
Guest73111Hi All, My Name is Rahul and i am working on Cyborg for my project.  I have some questions on the latest code of cyborg.14:16
Guest73111I saw FPGA integration code uploaded in Cyborg github14:17
Guest73111along with a test framework for unit test14:17
Guest73111My question is,14:18
Guest731111.  As i can see, Deployble and accelerator operations happening in two different ways. RPC serive is peridically checking for deployble and once a new get introduced, it is insert or update into database. On the other hand, Accelerator operations solely dependednt on curl command. How this two are related. I cant see any connection in codebase between Deployble and accelerator operations14:22
Guest731112nd question, How program function of IntelFPGADriver will get called. In test framework, IntelFPGADriver getting mocked and using that obj, program function is getting called. But in codebase, there is no call to the fpga driver's function14:24
Guest73111How, it will get called and from which component? is it agent?14:24
*** zhipeng has joined #openstack-cyborg14:31
zhipengh[m]Hi Rahul14:32
zhipengh[m]For question 1, accelerator refers to the data model of the basic functionality of an accelerator card , for example a typical PF14:33
zhipengh[m] Deployable refers to the VFs14:34
zhipengh[m]That is why you see RPC calls for  deployable (called by cyborg internal modules ) , and curl for accelerator (called by outside world )14:35
zhipengh[m]Per question 2, the program functionality is not supported in Queens :) and will be in Rocky14:37
Guest73111First i have a question for the last answer, As you said, queens will not support program functionality. Then, how a function ( which is written inside IntelFPGADriver), will get called?14:39
Guest73111i mean, how you are planning to trigger any function (written inside intelFPGADriver)14:39
Guest73111Let say, i want to use discover function written in intelFPGSDriver.. How it will get called? There is no call in current code, other than call from test framework14:41
zhipengso for our current code, we treat Intel FPGA card as a QAT card14:42
zhipengwhich is just a PCIe card with pre-programed logic14:42
zhipengso there will be no discovery of the functions, so to speak14:43
zhipengyou could use the driver to discover the overall metadata of the whole card14:43
Guest73111Thanks Zhipeng for the prompt answer.  This is so far understood.14:47
zhipengGuest73111 no problem :)14:47
Guest73111what i try to understand is in the future, if i use cyborg api(which just represent accelerators), how this will be interacting with the deployables.14:49
zhipengGuest73111 so we plan to support programability in Rocky, that means user should be able to call cyborg-api to initiate a new VF in a FPGA card14:53
zhipengso from api point of view, there should be no differency14:55
zhipengthe user just created a new acceleration resource14:55
zhipeng however the difference will be reflected on the data model, which means deployable tables will represent this newly created VF14:55
