Hello Community, Ironic and Neutron projects have become integrated even closer with multitenancy implementation in Ironic.
There are 2 bugs that require separate ML2 driver specifically for Ironic needs: - Booting ironic instance, Neutron port remains in down state [0] - Ironic needs to synchronize port status change events with Neutron [1] I was told (commented) that keeping code in Neutron tree is not right approach [2]. Of course I agree that Neutron has powerful and flexible support of out-of-tree ML2 drivers and such functionality must be a separate ML2 plugin. So the question to consult with the whole community: Do we need a new networking-ironic-* ML2 driver? To fix [0] and [1] we can use existing networking-generic-switch [3] ML2 driver [4,5]. It was designed specially for Ironic case. It already helps us to test Ironic multitenancy on the gates. My team would prefer supporting one driver without multiplying entities.
