> When multiple logical router ports on the same router share a connected
> prefix and BFD is enabled on each port, northd generates BFD helper routes
> with identical matches but different actions.
>
> ovn-controller represents desired flows with the same OpenFlow match using
> a single installed flow, so only one of these routes becomes active.  The
> selected route can also change after a full recompute.  As a result, BFD
> traffic for one logical router port can be routed through another port and
> redirected to a different gateway chassis.
>
> BFD packets generated by pinctrl already carry the BFD logical router port
> as MFF_LOG_INPORT.  Include that logical inport in the BFD helper route
> match so that each BFD session selects the route associated with its own
> logical router port.
>
> Avoid adding the inport twice for IPv6 link-local connected routes, which
> are already scoped to their logical router port.
>
> Add a northd regression test with two logical router ports in the same
> IPv4 subnet and ECMP+BFD routes to the same nexthop.  Also add a packet
> test with two gateway chassis that captures controller-generated BFD
> traffic at the provider uplinks.  Verify each session uses its own LRP
> before and after controller recompute, and after moving the LRPs onto
> the same chassis and back.  The same-chassis check detects the wrong
> source MAC independently of conflicting flow ordering.
>
> All four BFD tests pass with the fix.  Both variants of the new packet
> test fail when run with ovn-northd built without the fix.  In one run,
> BFD traffic follows the correct path initially but is redirected to
> the wrong gateway after controller recompute.

> Changes in v2:
> - Add a packet-forwarding regression test for BFD sessions on LRPs
>   sharing a connected subnet, including controller recompute and
>   gateway placement changes.
> - Verify both packet-test variants fail without the fix and all four
>   BFD tests pass with the fix.
> - Add Assisted-by and update the testing description.
