Public bug reported: /etc/default/openvswitch allows setting OVS_CTL_OPTS but that gets applies to all daemons. If we want to set ovs-vswitchd specific options we need a way to pass them through. ovs-ctl [1] has variables like OVS_VSWITCHD_OPTIONS that get set to '' with no regard for globals so cannot currently be set in /etc/default/openvswitch. We propose the following change to [1] to allow these overrides to be set in /etc/default/openvswitch:
340c340 < OVS_VSWITCHD_OPTIONS= --- > OVS_VSWITCHD_OPTIONS=${OVS_VSWITCHD_OPTIONS:-''} This will allow us to do e.g. OVS_VSWITCHD_OPTIONS="-vnetdev_offload:dbg -vnetdev_offload_tc:dbg" in /etc/default/openvswitch.
