This series adds support to run multiple ovn-controller instances using the same vswitchd instance. This may be used to reuse a single host level vswitchd installation to run multiple CMS (e.g. k8s and openstack), each having its own OVN stack running on a separate integration bridge.
This setup may, in some instances, simplify administration of the system, since the admin no longer needs to maintain separate vswitchd installations (e.g. in separate containers). This is also helpful when running different datapath types for the mixed setup. v1: initial series v2: change tunnel port naming scheme: include "chassis index" instead of its name for source chassis. v2: formatting adjustments. v3: fixed build due to ovs_abort missing arguments. v3: added documentation to CLI and system-id-override file. v3: added documentation for chassis specific db config options. v3: documented the ability to run multiple controllers on the same host, while mentioning that this support is highly experimental. v3: updated NEWS file to include the note about the new experimental issue. v3: rebased. Ihar Hrachyshka (7): Include "chassis index" into tunnel port name Support ovn-...-<chassis> specific global ovsdb options Allow to override system-id via file Support passing chassis name via CLI Don't touch tunnel ports from a different br-int Add connectivity test for 2 controllers on the same host Document experimental support for co-hosted controllers NEWS | 2 + controller/chassis.c | 164 ++++++++++------ controller/chassis.h | 9 +- controller/encaps.c | 83 +++++---- controller/encaps.h | 3 +- controller/ovn-controller.8.xml | 31 +++- controller/ovn-controller.c | 226 +++++++++++++++++------ controller/patch.c | 6 +- controller/physical.c | 2 +- lib/ovn-util.c | 87 +++++++++ lib/ovn-util.h | 26 +++ tests/automake.mk | 1 + tests/ovn-macros.at | 6 +- tests/ovn.at | 318 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ tests/ovs-macros.at | 2 + 15 files changed, 813 insertions(+), 153 deletions(-) -- 2.34.1 _______________________________________________ dev mailing list d...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
