Great. I'll have something up for review tomorrow or early next week,
and we'll see where we get to.

If the patches look good before the official release,  then I've no objection

Numan, thank you so much for the review and for providing such a
detailed and complete counter proposal, this is most appreciated.

I agree with you completely and have started working on such an approach.

This does mean I will most likely miss the 21.09 release with this
series, which is unfortunate for me, but that's ok. Better to get it
into a great shape for the next one than taking risks or cutting
corners for this one.

Cheers!

Hi Frode,

I've a few comments with the approach taken in this patch.
This patch calls the plug_port APIs from binding.c.  This complicates
the already complicated binding.c code and I think plug_port() related stuff
can be handled separately.  I don't see a need for binding.c to be aware of
plugging feature.  For binding.c to claim a port, the ovs interface should
have external_ids:iface-id set to the port binding lport_name.

Below is how I would see this can be done:

1.  Add a new file called - controller/plug.c  which will handle port binding
changes - plug_handle_port_binding_changes (and possibly ovs
port/ovs interface changes).

2.  The function plug_handle_port_binding_changes() will iterate through the
 tracked port bindings and if the port binding has the required options set
(i.e requested-chassis and plug-type) it will call plug_port APIs and create
or delete OVS ports.  This function can  access the lbinding data
stored in the runtime data.

3.   For recompute scenarios,  there can be a function - plug_run() which will
 iterate through all the port bindings and create/delete ovs ports.

4.  When the OVS ports are created / deleted in (2),  in the next run,
the binding module
 will claim or release the port binding.  binding.c module
wouldn't need to care
 if the port binding / ovs port is created by the plug module or
by some other
mechanism.

5.  The functions plug_handle_port_binding_changes() can be either called by
 runtime_data_sb_port_binding_handler() (i.e runtime engine node)
 or another engine node for plug handling can be created which will handle
 port binding  changes (and possibly ovs port/interface changes).
 Similarly for full recompute,  either runtime_data_run() can call
plug_run()
 or a new engine run function can call it.  Having a separate engine node
 seems better but then it needs to have runtime data as input
 to access the lbinding information.

6.  If you think plug.c should handle ovs port/interface changes,  then you
 can add handlers for it too.


What do you think ? Would this proposal work ?   Let me know if
something is not clear
and I can try to explain better.

Thanks
Numan

[ovs-dev] [PATCH ovn v4 8/9] binding: Consider plugging of ports on CMS request.

2021-09-03 Thread Frode Nordahl
When OVN is linked with an appropriate plugging implementation,
CMS can request OVN to plug individual lports into the local
Open vSwitch instance.

The port and instance record will be maintained during the lifetime
of the lport and it will be removed on release of lport.
