Package: openvswitch-switch
Version: 2.6.2~pre+git20161223-3
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
at system startup, ifup of an openvswitch interface hangs because of
the following situation in the process table:
| /bin/sh /etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch start
| \_ ifup --allow=ovs switch0
| \_ /bin/sh -c /bin/run-parts --exit-on-error /etc/network/if-pre-up.d
| \_ /bin/run-parts --exit-on-error /etc/network/if-pre-up.d
| \_ /bin/sh /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/openvswitch
| \_ /bin/sh /etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch start
| \_ /bin/systemctl --no-pager
--job-mode=ignore-dependencies start openvswitch-switch.service
Essentially, the first line blocks the last line. This happens
because /usr/share/openvswitch/scripts/ifupdown.sh checks
"/etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch status" and tries to execute
"/etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch start" if that fails. As the startup
script (first line) has not exited yet, systemd considers the unit not
to be up yet, the status check fails and the command in the last line hangs.
Eventally it will time out and the unit will be marked as failed.
Here's my /etc/network/interfaces:
| auto lo
| iface lo inet loopback
|
| allow-switch0 enp5s0
| iface enp5s0 inet manual
| ovs_type OVSPort
| ovs_bridge switch0
| ovs_options vlan_mode=access tag=109

| accept_ra 0
