#openstack-nova - 2017-04-20
00:34:57 clarkb (thought that might confuse people greatly)
00:35:48 kevinbenton clarkb: yeah, that also makes detection harder because i wouldn't be using a different vif_type on the neutron side
00:36:18 kevinbenton it would be hard to distinguish in the agent if a given nova port was going to try to plug itself into a bridge
00:36:38 clarkb gotcha
00:37:04 clarkb (you only need to attach to the bridge if on a network connected to something?)
00:37:27 imacdonn https://libvirt.org/formatnetwork.html <- trying to comprehend this .. I think it's saying that it only works for libvirt-managed networks
00:38:10 imacdonn "Network types not specifically mentioned here don't support having an MTU set in the libvirt network config."
00:38:58 kevinbenton clarkb: we attach ports to bridges that were created by agents. we leave attaching to bridge up to nova for compute ports
00:39:22 kevinbenton clarkb: so we skip based on device_owner 'compute' right now
00:39:42 kevinbenton clarkb: ideally i want to get rid of that, but for one cycle i will need to know about old compute ports trying to plug themselves in
00:40:32 kevinbenton clarkb: so with my current approach we just set the vif_type='tap' for any newly bound linux bridge ports
00:40:48 kevinbenton clarkb: and that will make it easy to tell
00:41:38 clarkb and is there a reason you can't set the mtu on the bridge when it is created (because you don't know what the mtu of the devices that attach to it later will be?)
00:42:08 kevinbenton clarkb: we could
00:42:11 imacdonn linux doesn't seem to allow that .. at least the kernel I'm running
00:42:13 kevinbenton clarkb: but that leads to the other bug
00:42:28 kevinbenton clarkb: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1399064
00:42:28 openstack Launchpad bug 1399064 in linux (Ubuntu) "bridges cannot have a mtu > 1500 by themselves" [Medium,Triaged]
00:42:35 clarkb ah
00:42:50 clarkb we set them lower in the multinode tests when we used linux bridges and not ovs
00:42:53 clarkb good to know thanks
00:45:20 kevinbenton imacdonn: yeah, that doesn't sound promising for libvirt
00:45:28 imacdonn ack
00:46:16 kevinbenton imacdonn: i suppose we can put the logic back in the neutron agent
00:46:30 kevinbenton the tap device inherits from the bridge, right?
00:46:44 imacdonn it appears so, yes
00:47:01 imacdonn well...
00:47:08 kevinbenton so once the bridge is embiggened, we don't reduce by adding a tap device
00:47:12 imacdonn it picks up the bridge's MTU when it gets added to the bridge
00:47:12 kevinbenton :)
00:47:21 imacdonn if you change the bridge later, I don't think the tap will follow
00:47:27 kevinbenton yeah, that's fine
00:47:37 kevinbenton i'm just trying to make sure the bridge wouldn't shrink every time
00:47:44 imacdonn right
00:47:47 kevinbenton until the agent went through and corrected
00:47:58 kevinbenton ok, then we can fix this in neutron
00:48:07 kevinbenton imacdonn: if you file a bug i can revert that patch
00:48:18 kevinbenton well not revert
00:48:26 kevinbenton but put in logic to match to the network MTU
00:48:59 imacdonn hang on
00:49:09 imacdonn I might have been looking at the wrong libvirt doc
00:49:26 imacdonn https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#mtu
00:49:55 imacdonn this is fairly new .. I'm on libvirt 1.2.x
00:50:28 imacdonn well, a mix of 1.2.x and 2.0.x, but not 3.1
00:52:37 kevinbenton i gtg for a bit. if it's not looking good for libvirt, just let me know
00:52:51 kevinbenton the logic should probably exist in linuxbridge agent anyway to deal with older ones
00:52:52 imacdonn I'll file the bug anyway .. think we at least need something to get us by until your other solution
00:53:23 imacdonn yeah, I think that requiring libvirt 3.1.x would be a problem for many
00:53:45 imacdonn thanks! I'll get the bug in
