Hey Valentine,
Agent stopped setting this flag, here is the commit:
https://github.com/Juniper/contrail-controller/commit/df02316b355b4666e4018254ba44bee754b72dd2
Thanks,

Hi everyone,
I'm looking at OpenContrail (3.1 if that matters) code to figure out how
BGPaaS flows are installed in the vRouter. This is what I've got so far:
Config phase:
-------------
- InterfaceNH::CreatePacketInterfaceNh() creates two next hops (nh) for
pkt0: one with policy disabled and one with policy enabled
- VnTable::AddIPAMRoutes() creates a route to the VN's default gateway
via the policy-enabled nexthop, as "we want to trap BGPaaS flows" (as
the comment says).
- NHKSyncEntry::Encode() pushes NH_FLAG_FLOW_LOOKUP to the kernel if
both policy and relaxed_policy are enabled for the interface.
Runtime phase - vRouter Agent:
------------------------------
- VrouterControllerInterface::Process() captures a packet from pkt0,
decodes agent headers and sends it to the PktHandler::Process()
- PktHandler::ParsePacket() is called which checks if this packet was
trapped due to TRAP_FLOW_MISS or TRAP_ACTION_HOLD (or TRAP_ECMP_RESOLVE,
actually). If so, it checks if it is a BGP SYN packet, creates the
corresponding NAT flow for BGPaaS and pushes it to the kernel.
So far, so good. Now, let us see what happens inside vRouter:
- Both TRAP_FLOW_MISS and TRAP_ACTION_HOLD are set in vr_trap_flow()
- vr_trap_flow() is called from vr_enqueue_flow()
- vr_enqueue_flow() is called from vr_do_flow_action() if
VR_FLOW_ACTION_HOLD is set
- vr_do_flow_action() is called from vr_flow_lookup(), which also sets
VR_FLOW_ACTIOB_HOLD on the flow if it's a new one (true for the SYN
packet) **UNLESS** the corresponding next hop has NH_FLAG_FLOW_LOOKUP flag.
Bang! We set the NH_FLAG_FLOW_LOOKUP flag to trap new BGP sessions to
agent, and this very flag prevents them from being trapped with an
appropriate reason.
I doubt it's a bug as I have an impression BGPaaS works in 3.1, at least
to some extent.
So which piece of a puzzle am I missing?
Sukhdev, you are a kind of point of contact in the TSC: may I ask you to
summon a Juniper's BGPaaS expert in this thread? :-) Many thanks!
Cheers,
Valentine
