waleed mousa 2c7f95e3ac update NVIDIA NIC firmware images and settings by ironic-python-agent 
Add "update_nvidia_nic_firmware_image" and "update_nvidia_nic_firmware_settings"
clean steps to MellanoxDeviceHardwareManager.

By adding those two steps, we can update the firmware image and
firmware settings of NVIDIA NICs by ironic-python-agent using
manual cleaning command
The clean steps require mstflint package installed on the image.
The "update_nvidia_nic_firmware_image" clean step requires to pass
"images" parameter to the clean command
The "images" parameter is a json blob contains
a list of images, where each image contains a map of:
  * url: to firmware image (file://, http://)
  * checksum: checksum of the provided image
  * checksumType: md5/sha512/sha256
  * componentFlavor: PSID of the nic
  * version: version of the FW

The "update_nvidia_nic_firmware_settings" clean step requires to pass
"settings" parameter to the clean command
The "settings" parameter is a json blob contains
a list of settings, where each settings contains a map of:
  * deviceID: device ID
  * globalConfig: global config
  * function0Config: function 0 config
  * function1Config: function 1 config

Ironic Python Agent

Team and repository tags

Overview

An agent for controlling and deploying Ironic controlled baremetal nodes.

The ironic-python-agent works with the agent driver in Ironic to provision the node. Starting with ironic-python-agent running on a ramdisk on the unprovisioned node, Ironic makes API calls to ironic-python-agent to provision the machine. This allows for greater control and flexibility of the entire deployment process.

The ironic-python-agent may also be used with the original Ironic pxe drivers as of the Kilo OpenStack release.

Building the IPA deployment ramdisk

For more information see the Image Builder section of the Ironic Python Agent developer guide.

Using IPA with devstack

This is covered in the Deploying Ironic with DevStack section of the Ironic dev-quickstart guide.
