The purpose of this extension is updating the FDB table upon changes of normal port instances thus enabling communication between direct port SR-IOV instances and normal port instances. Additionally enabling communication to direct port instances with floating ips. Support for OVS agent and linux bridge.

fixes:
|
|
- In order to fix the communication issues between
|
|
SR-IOV instances and regular instances
|
|
the FDB population extension is added to the
|
|
OVS or linuxbridge agent.
|
|
the cause was that messages from SR-IOV direct port
|
|
instance to normal port instances located on
|
|
the same hypervisor were sent directly to the wire
|
|
because the FDB table was not yet updated.
|
|
FDB population extension tracks instances
|
|
boot/delete operations using the handle_port
|
|
delete_port extension interface messages
|
|
and update the hypervisor's FDB table accordingly.
|
|
|
|
Please note this L2 agent extension doesn't support
|
|
allowed address pairs extension.
