[Bug 1403626] [NEW] SRIOV mechanism driver doesn't support flat networks

 

Public bug reported:

The SRIOV mechanism driver only supports vlan networking at present.  It
would be useful to support flat networking as well.

I have a report that omitting the vlan id from the libvirt xml (by
commenting out [1]) allows flat networking to work.  It's not clear
whether neutron providing a vlan id of 0 would have the same effect.
