commit d41bd58f31e259fe408c8c059b31299fdfe81127 Author: Slawek Kaplonski <[email protected]> Date: Fri Aug 16 13:44:09 2019 +0000 Initialize phys bridges before setup_rpc Neutron-ovs-agent configures physical bridges that they works in fail_mode=secure. This means that only packets which match some OpenFlow rule in the bridge can be processed. This may cause problem on hosts with only one physical NIC where same bridge is used to provide control plane connectivity like connection to rabbitmq and data plane connectivity for VM. After e.g. host reboot bridge will still be in fail_mode=secure but there will be no any OpenFlow rule on it thus there will be no communication to rabbitmq. With current order of actions in __init__ method of OVSNeutronAgent class it first tries to establish connection to rabbitmq and later configure physical bridges with some initial OpenFlow rules. And in case described above it will fail as there is no connectivity to rabbitmq through physical bridge. So this patch changes order of actions in __init__ method that it first setup physical bridges and than configure rpc connection.

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to neutron. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1840443 Title: [OVS agent] Physical bridges can't be initialized if there is no connectivity to rabbitmq Status in neutron: Fix Released Bug description: In some deployments it may be that same external bridge (br-ex for example) is used to provide data plane connectivity connectivity for vms but also connectivity for control plane, e.g. neutron openvswitch agent uses it to connect to rabbitmq. That may lead to "dead lock" after e.g. host reboot. It happens like that because br-ex is set by neutron agent to be in faile_mode=secure and that means that if there are no openflow rules added for bridge, it will not proceed any packets. And as there is no connection to rabbitmq, neutron-ovs-agent is failing on setup_rpc method (here: https://github.com/openstack/neutron/blob/30a60d04f098581340f83b38b7a79104308c66bc/neutron/plugins/ml2/drivers/openvswitch/agent/ovs_neutron_agent.py#L198) so will never configure initial rules for physical bridges which is done here: https://github.com/openstack/neutron/blob/30a60d04f098581340f83b38b7a79104308c66bc/neutron/plugins/ml2/drivers/openvswitch/agent/ovs_neutron_agent.py#L212 To fix this problem, we should do initialization of physical bridges before setup rpc.
