commit b4243ad3f72b3dc7ef5f291a85a3dd084d6c1c00 Author: Hamdy Khader <[email protected]> Date: Thu Jul 26 17:40:53 2018 +0300 Add Smart NIC representor port to integration bridge In case of Smart NIC vNIC type neutron should mimic nova-compute that plug the port to the ovs bridge. Extend the Neutron OVS mechanism driver and Neutron OVS Agent to bind the Neutron port for the baremetal host with Smart NIC. This will allow the Neutron OVS Agent to configure the pipeline of the OVS running on the Smart NIC and leverage the pipeline features such as: VXLAN, Security Groups and ARP Responder.

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to neutron. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1785608 Title: [RFE] neutron ovs agent support baremetal port using smart nic Status in neutron: Fix Released Bug description: Problem description =================== While Ironic today supports Neutron provisioned network connectivity for Bare-Metal servers through ML2 mechanism driver, the existing support is based largely on configuration of TORs through vendor-specific mechanism drivers, with limited capabilities. Proposed change =============== There is a wide range of smart/intelligent NICs emerging on the market. These NICs generally incorporate one or more general purpose CPU cores along with data-plane packet processing accelerations, and can efficiently run virtual switches such as OVS, while maintaining the existing interfaces to the SDN layer. The goal is to enable running the standard Neutron Open vSwitch L2 agent, providing a generic, vendor-agnostic bare metal networking service with feature parity compared to the virtualization use-case. * Neutron ml2 ovs changes: Update the neuton ml2 ovs to bind bare metal port with smartNIC flag in the binding profile. * Neutron ovs agent changes: Example of SmartNIC model:: +---------------+ | Server | | | | +A | +------|--------+ | | +------|--------+ | SmartNIC | | +-+B-+ | | |OVS | | | +-+C-+ | +------|--------+ | A - port on the baremetal B - port that represent the baremetal port in the SmartNIC C - port to the wire Add/Remove Port B to the ovs br-int with external-ids This part is mimc the nova-compute that plug the port to the ovs bridge.
