Now it compiles again. This raises a philosophical issue. Currently OVN requires something else in the system, that runs before ovn-controller starts, to create the integration bridge. This seems reasonable enough, but ovn-controller could do it itself. Similarly, OVN could require something else in the system to add the ports to the integration bridge before it starts up. That would put a little more burden on startup scripts, but it would also be more flexible (the ports wouldn't have to be patch ports, if something else is appropriate, for example). It would also mean that ovn-controller itself would need less configuration, although that would presumably get shifted somewhere else so it's net zero.
