Bug description:
Bug found in Octavia (master)
Octavia creates at least 2 ports for each load balancer:
- the VIP port, it is down, it keeps/stores the IP address of the LB
- the VRRP port, plugged into a VM, it has the VIP address in the
allowed-address list (and the VIP address is configured on the interface in the
VM)
When sending an ARP request for the VIP address, the VRRP port should
reply with its mac-address.
In OVN the VIP port is marked as "type: virtual".
But when the VIP port is updated, it loses its "port: virtual" status
and that breaks the ARP resolution (OVN replies to the ARP request by
sending the mac-address of the VIP port - which is not used/down).
Quick reproducer that simulates the Octavia behavior:
===========================
import subprocess
import time
import openstack
conn = openstack.connect(cloud="devstack-admin-demo")
network = conn.network.find_network("public")
sg = conn.network.find_security_group('sg')
if not sg:
sg = conn.network.create_security_group(name='sg')
vip_port = conn.network.create_port(
name="lb-vip",
network_id=network.id,
device_id="lb-1",
device_owner="me",
is_admin_state_up=False)
vip_address = [
fixed_ip['ip_address']
for fixed_ip in vip_port.fixed_ips
if '.' in fixed_ip['ip_address']][0]
vrrp_port = conn.network.create_port(
name="lb-vrrp",
device_id="vrrp",
device_owner="vm",
network_id=network.id)
vrrp_port = conn.network.update_port(
vrrp_port,
allowed_address_pairs=[
{"ip_address": vip_address,
"mac_address": vrrp_port.mac_address}])
time.sleep(1)
output = subprocess.check_output(
f"sudo ovn-nbctl show | grep -A2 'port {vip_port.id}'",
shell=True)
output = output.decode('utf-8')
if 'type: virtual' in output:
print("Port is virtual, this is ok.")
print(output)
conn.network.update_port(
vip_port,
security_group_ids=[sg.id])
time.sleep(1)
output = subprocess.check_output(
f"sudo ovn-nbctl show | grep -A2 'port {vip_port.id}'",
shell=True)
output = output.decode('utf-8')
if 'type: virtual' not in output:
print("Port is not virtual, this is an issue.")
print(output)
===========================
In my env (devstack master on c9s):
$ python3 /mnt/host/virtual_port_issue.py
Port is virtual, this is ok.
port e0fe2894-e306-42d9-8c5e-6e77b77659e2 (aka lb-vip)
type: virtual
addresses: ["fa:16:3e:93:00:8f 172.24.4.111 2001:db8::178"]
Port is not virtual, this is an issue.
port e0fe2894-e306-42d9-8c5e-6e77b77659e2 (aka lb-vip)
addresses: ["fa:16:3e:93:00:8f 172.24.4.111 2001:db8::178"]
port 8ec36278-82b1-436b-bc5e-ea03ef22192f
In Octavia, the "port: virtual" is _sometimes_ back after other
updates of the ports, but in some cases the LB is unreachable.
(and "ovn-nbctl lsp-set-type <vip-port-id> virtual" fixes the LB)
=== Ubuntu SRU Details ===
[Impact]
This bug causes loadbalancer vip ports to lose their "virtual" type in ovn
and results in broken connectivity to amphora vms after failover. There are two
patches, one that fixes new ports and one that retroactively fixes existing
ones. We are backporting the former since it is clean and simple but the latter
does not apply cleanly so we will defer.
[Test Case]
* deploy openstack ussuri or victoria with neutron + ovn and octavia
* create a loadbalancer
* check ovn-nbctl for the vip port and check that type is virtual
* failover the loadbalancer
* check ovn-nbctl for the vip port and check that type is still virtual and
that lb vip is reachable
[Where things could go wrong]
There are not anticipated to be any regressions from this backport.
