Public bug reported:

I want to use SR-IOV in Openstack.
I have one NIC with two slots.  Only one slot is plugged in. So the NIC has two Physical Function.  I enabled sr-iov on this machine. So I got 32 virtual functions(16 virtual function for each physical function).
Now I want to make openstack only use the 16 virtual functions for the physical functions which is plugged in.   However, I found that only  product_id and vender_id can be the filter criteria when I looked up the code in  pci/pci_whitelist.py(Line 40,  _WHITELIST_SCHEMA).
I hope I could filter PCI devices by physical functions like this  pci_passthrough_whitelist=[{ "vendor_id":"8086","product_id":"1515", "phys_function.0.3": "0x0"}].

There is a same problem for the pci_alias.  I can't use extra_info to
define  the pci_alias filter(The physical function info is in
extra_info)
