We can't backport the fix since it changes default configuration values,
which is against stable policy.

Title:
OpenStack SDN corrupts a few networking packets under load
Status in neutron:
Fix Released
Bug description:
It appears that some combination of OpenStack SDN under load can
silently corrupt exactly 50 bytes of TCP payload data. Only observed
with VMs that run on the OpenStack control node which is apparently
out of line with OpenStack best practices for production.
Environment was RDO OpenStack Kilo, CentOS 7, Neutron/Openvswitch.
Openvswitch Neutron plugin version is 2015.1.0-1.el7, linux is
SLES11SP3 (kernel 3.0.76) 64 bit on VMware.
Steps To Reproduce:
Generate high network traffic.
From the sender:
<pre>
sender:~ $ dd if=/dev/zero count=1000000 bs=1000 | netcat 172.16.12.100 139
1000000+0 records in
1000000+0 records out
1000000000 bytes (1.0 GB) copied, 12.5841 s, 79.5 MB/s
^C
From the receiver:
Out of laziness using SMB port so shutdown Samba on the receiver
before repro'ing.
If OpenStack does not corrupt the networking stream:
receiver:~ $ netcat -l -p 139 > out.bin; hexdump -C out.bin
00000000 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................|
*
1dcd6500
If OpenStack *does* corrupt the packets over the network, the
corruption will be shown in the hexdump. Out of 10 tries, a few
attempts yielded corruption so it is readily reproducable, but not
that often. Two examples:
receiver:~ $ netcat -l -p 139 > out.bin; hexdump -C out.bin
00000000 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................|
