Public bug reported: crashing / killing ovs-vswitchd doesn't clean up vhost_user sockets
If a crash occurs the subsequent automated restart of openvswitch by its monitor runs into collisions with the existing sockets. Messages are like: Apr 07 11:36:43 horsea ovs-vswitchd[21481]: VHOST_CONFIG: socket created, fd:346 Apr 07 11:36:43 horsea ovs-vswitchd[21481]: VHOST_CONFIG: fail to bind fd:346, remove file:/var/run/openvswitch/vhost-user-979 and try again. Note: this was discussed on the mailing list a while ago, we need to check if/what the supposed handling should be. The DPDK code gets a path to the socket from openvswitch - it is debatable if ovs or dpdk should remove that file if a collision occurs. ** Affects: dpdk (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Status: Triaged ** Affects: openvswitch-dpdk (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: dpdk (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: dpdk (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Also affects: openvswitch-dpdk (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1567383 Title: crashing / killing ovs-vswitchd doesn't clean up vhost_user sockets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpdk/+bug/1567383/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
