2019-01-27 | [ovs] Start ovs services before networking | 1 | -1/+1 | ||
Fix broken systemd service unit dependecies: - OVS should start before networking service; - OVS ports & bridges should not be automatically ifup-ed by networking service to avoid races, so drop 'auto' for both (OVS ports are automatically handled when part of an OVS bridge); - explicitly ifup OVS bridges as part of networking service, but after all Linux interfaces have been handled; - use 'allow-ovs br-prv' to let OVS handle br-prv and avoid another race condition; While at it, fix some other related issues: - make OVS service start after DPDK service (if present); - bump OVS-DPDK compute VMs RAM since since switching from MTU 1500 to jumbo frames for virtual PODs a while ago failed to do so [1]; - avoid creating conflicting reclass linux.network.interfaces entries for OVS ports by using their name (drop 'ovs_port_' prefix): * for untagged networks they will override existing common defs; * for tagged networks, they will create separate entries; - DPDK scenarios: make gtw01 br-prv members OVS ports to avoid race conditions after node reboot by letting OVS handle them; [1] https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2018/03/16/\ ovs-dpdk-hugepage-memory/ Change-Id: I0266ba67f3849b6f7e331a758146b331730bae55 Signed-off-by: Alexandru Avadanii <Alexandru.Avadanii@enea.com> | |||||
2019-01-09 | Bring in FDIO (VPP+DPDK) scenario | 1 | -0/+135 | ||
- cmp, gtw: bump RAM allocation to accomodate hugepages/VPP; for now we overcommit, gtw01 resources can probably be lowered; - submodule: add salt-formula-neutron so we can locally patch it; - repo: * FD.IO repos for VPP packages; * networking-vpp PPA for python-networking-vpp Neutron driver; - use vpp-router for L3, disable neutron-l3-agent; - baremetal_init: apply repo config before network (otherwise UCA repo is missing when trying to install DPDK on baremetal nodes); - arm64: iommu.passthrough=1 is required on ThunderX for VPP on newer kernels; Design quirks: - vpp service runs as 'neutron' user, which does not exist at the time VPP is installed and initially started, hence the need to restart it before starting the vpp-agent service; - gtw01 node has DPDK, yet to configure it via IDF we use the compute-specific OVS-targeted parameters like `compute_ovs_dpdk_socket_mem`, which is a bit misleading; - vpp-agent requires ml2_conf.ini on ALL compute AND network nodes to parse per-node physnet-to-real interface names; - vpp process is bound to core '1' (not parameterized via IDF); Change-Id: I659f7dbebcab7b154e7b1fb829cd7159b4372ec8 Signed-off-by: Alexandru Avadanii <Alexandru.Avadanii@enea.com> |
