commit 26d8702b9d7cc5a4293b97bc435fa85983be9f01 Author: venkata anil <[email protected]> Date: Thu Aug 4 07:14:47 2016 +0000 l2pop fdb flows for HA router ports This patch makes L3 HA failover not depended on neutron components (during failover). All HA agents(active and backup) call update_device_up/down after wiring the ports. But l2pop driver is called for only active agent as port binding in DB reflects active agent. Then l2pop creates unicast and multicast flows for active agent. On failover, flows to new active agent is created. For this to happen - all of database, messaging server, neutron-server and destination L3 agent should be active during failover. This creates two issues - 1) When any of the above resources(i.e neutron-server, .. ) are dead, flows between new master and other agents won't be created and L3 Ha failover is not working. In same scenario, L3 Ha failover will work if l2pop is disabled. 2) Packet loss during failover is higher as above neutron resources interact multiple times, so will take time to create l2 flows. In this change, we allow plugin to notify l2pop when update_device_up/down is called by backup agents also. Then l2pop will create flood flows to all HA agents(both active and slave). L2pop won't create unicast flow for this port, instead unicast flow is created by learning action of table 10 when keepalived sends GARP after assigning ip address to master router's qr-xx port. As flood flows are already created and unicast flow is dynamically added, L3 HA failover is not depended on l2pop. This solves two isses 1) with L3 HA + l2pop, failover will work even if any of above agents or processes dead. 2) Reduce failover time as we are not depending on neutron to create flows during failover. We use L3HARouterAgentPortBinding table for getting all HA agents of a router port. HA router port on slave agent is also considered for l2pop distributed_active_network_ports and agent_network_active_port_count Closes-bug: #1522980 Closes-bug: #1602614 Change-Id: Ie1f5289390b3ff3f7f3ed7ffc8f6a8258ee8662e ** Changed in: neutron Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo! Engineering Team, which is subscribed to neutron. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1522980 Title: L3 HA integration with l2pop assumes control plane is operational for fail over Status in neutron: Fix Released Bug description: Note: This is a soft requirement for DVR + L3 HA. L3 HA did not work with l2pop at all, and that was fixed here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1365476 via https://review.openstack.org/#/c/141114/. However, the solution is sub optimal because it assumes the control plane is operational for fail over to work correctly. Without l2pop, L3 HA can fail over successfully if the database, messaging server, neutron-server and destination L3 agent are dead. With l2pop, all four are needed. This is because for fail over to work, the destination L3 agent notices that a router has transitioned to master, and notifies neutron-server via RPC. At which point neutron-server updates all of the internal router port's 'binding:host' value to point to the target node, and l2pop code is executed in order to update the L2 agents. Instead, I'd like fail over to rely solely on the data plane regardless if l2pop is on or off. One such solution would be something similar to patch set 9 of the patch: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/141114/9//COMMIT_MSG. The idea is to tell l2pop to treat HA router ports as replicated ports (Which they are), so that tunnel endpoints would be created against all nodes that host replicas of the router, and the destination MAC address of the port would not be learned via l2pop, but via the fallback regular MAC learning mechanism. This means that we lost some of the advantage of l2pop, but I think it is essential to correct operation of L3 HA.
