The [pci]alias configuration option now accepts two new optional fields: * resource_class: that can be used to request PCI device by placement RC name. * traits: a comma separated list of placement trait names that can be used to filter placement PCI resource provider by traits. These fields has the matching counterpart in [pci]device_spec implemented already. These fields are matched by the Placement GET allocation_candidates query therefore these fields are ignored when PCI device pools are matched against IntancePCIRequest by nova. Note that InstancePCIRequest object spec field is defined as a list of dicts. But in reality nova creates the request always with a single dict. So we restricted the placement logic to handle a single spec. blueprint: pci-device-tracking-in-placement Change-Id: I5c8f05c3c5d7597175e60b29e4ab2f22e6496ecd

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
