Hi,
Great work regarding the agent. My tests with the OVS have passed
successfully. I nonetheless have some problems regarding the
linuxbridge. The problem is that if a device is created from the network
ID then it should have a "gw-" as the prefix.
I think that if you create the dnsmasq interface from the port id then
this will solve the issue. This would require a few changes to the dhcp
code. If not then we need to change the logic of the linux bridge agent.
I have added my comments to https://review.openstack.org/#/c/9064/.
Off the bat I think that there are a few options:
1. DHCP agent changes tap device to "gw-..." no changes to linux bridge.
The fact that the DNSMASQ may not be the default gateway may be a bit
misleading (I agree with what you have written in your comments)
2. Change linux bridge code to check if the tap device is contains a
network id.
3. Add a new prefix that could indicate that the device is a "dhcp"
device. This is a minor change in the linux bridge agent to support. I'd
be happy to do this.
4. DHCP agent uses the port id. No changes to linux bridge.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Gary
