  Dear bug triager. This bug was created since a commit was marked with DOCIMPACT.
  Your project "openstack/neutron" is set up so that we directly report the documentation bugs against it. If this needs changing, the docimpact-group option needs to be added for the project. You can ask the OpenStack infra team (#openstack-infra on freenode) for help if you need to.

      sriov-mech: Introduce a new VIF type for PF vnic type
      
      We need to tell Nova to use a specific VIF type for full PF passthrough
      (this is the recently added VNIC_DIRECT_PHYSICAL vnic type).
      
      Make sure that when binding ports with this vnic type, we set the
      appropriate vif type for Nova to be able to provision those ports
      correctly.
      
      Nova change that adds a vif driver for this vif type:
