Hello Gianluca,
Thank you for the links.
I read the documents and understood SR-IOV is supported.
This is a question apart from NFV, I need RDMA (InfiniBand) and RDMA (Ethernet) using Mellanox ConnextX-6 cards.
Do you (or does anyone) know if RDMA (InfiniBand) and RDMA (Ethernet) work on oVirt environment?
I found following MLNX_OFED documentation and it seems that RDMA will work with SR-IOV.

Hello everyone,
I've checked the documentation of oVirt, but cannot find if following function can work on oVirt or not.
- NFV (Network Functions Virtualization)
Does someone know NFV can work on oVirt?
For your reference, Red Hat OpenStack Platform seems to support NFV as follows
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/12/html-single/network_functions_virtualization_product_guide/index

I think you can find useful information here for RHV 4.4, that should be applicable to oVirt 4.4 too:
I don't know if it is supported to also use NFV with OVN external provider in oVirt/RHV
HIH,
