commit 8e6d5d404cf49e5b68b43c62e7f6d7db2771a1f4 Author: Sahid Orentino Ferdjaoui <[email protected]> Date: Thu Aug 24 09:13:09 2017 -0400 libvirt: slow live-migration to ensure network is ready In Neutron, commit b7c303ee0a16a05c1fdb476dc7f4c7ca623a3f58 introduced events sent during a live migration when the VIFs are plugged on destination node. The Linux bridge agent mechanism driver is detecting new networks on the destination host only when the TAP devices are created, and these tap devices are only created when libvirt starts the migration. As a result, we must actually start the migration and then slow it as we wait for the neutron events. This change ensures we wait for these events.

However the VIF creation scheme between nova-compute and neutron-ovs-agent drops these RARPs: 1. nova creates a port on OVS but without the internal tagging. 2. At this stage all the packets that come out from the VM, or QEMU process it runs in, will be dropped. 3. The QEMU sends five RARP packets in order to allow MAC learning. These packets are dropped as described in #2. 4. In the meanwhile neutron-ovs-agent loops every POLLING_INTERVAL and scans for new ports. Once it detects a new port is added. it will read the properties of the new port, and assign the correct internal tag, that will allow connection of the VM. The flow above suggests that: 1. RARP packets are dropped, so MAC learning takes much longer and depends on internal traffic and advertising by the VM. 2. VM is disconnected from the network for a mean period of POLLING_INTERVAL/2 Seems like this could be solved by direct messages between nova vif driver and neutron-ovs-agent To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1414559/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
