nfv-kvm installation requirement
Project Name: (nfv-kvm)(NFV Hypervisors-KVM)
Project Lead: Don Dugger (donald.d.dugger@intel.com)
Target Release: B release
List of proposed requirements:
1) Install Kernel package with NFV enhancement support
2) Install QEMU package with NFV enhancement support
3) Provide a method so that user can input platform specific parameters.
OPNFV release: Brahmaputra
Timeline: In order to integrate into CI and fix bugs we would require implementation
at least 2 months prior to B-release
Purpose:
Special kernel/QEMU functions may be needed to meet advanced NFV usage requirements,
like real time, live migration etc. The nfv4kvm project provide such functionality,
so it will be good to integrate the kernel/QEMU into the installer.
Proposed requirements:
1) Nfv-kvm would provide kernel source and QEMU source that meet NFV requirement,
including real time, live migration etc. The installer can install the kernel/qemu
package build from the kernel/qemu repo code.
2) Grub entry would be updated to adding NFV specific kernel parameters like "isolcpus",
"nohz_full" etc. The installer should get input from user for such parameters.
