Bugs

Important bugs:

- [1] neutronclient gate broken following VPNaaS infra changes
- [2] Gate failures with 'the resource could not be found'
- [3] neutron test_multi_prefix_slaac failing in the gate with ping failures starting around 7/22
- [4] Referencing a lb-healthmonitor ID for the first time from Heat would fail
- [5] security groups don't work with vip and ovs plugin

Networking Guide

On Demand Agenda

Liberty-RC1
- https://launchpad.net/neutron/+milestone/liberty-rc1
Concrete plan to merge back pecan work
- Need to do this very early after Liberty-2 is cut this week
Mitaka Design Summit Sessions
- Collecting ideas on the following etherpad
- https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/neutron-mitaka-designsummit
Need decision on how to handle test jobs for Neutron client
- Email with details: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-August/072772.html
Vendor decomposition
- Which vendors have not started final decomposition?
  - Should we maintain a list of stragglers in devref until they are all done?
  - Send an email notice about decomposition to -dev: what should it say?
- Does anything need to be left in the tree for packaging?
  - Currently requirements.txt is left in the vendor dir with the name of the vendor package, but no one seems to know if it is needed.
nova-network compatibility tasks
- Summit session(s) in Vancouver were very productive
- Tasks tracked here: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/YVR-nova-network
- Need to find owners for a few of these
  - Rolling upgrades (mostly a grenade patch)
  - Distributed SNAT with DVR
  - "Get me a network (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/184857/) (kevinbenton to own this)
  - ARP Spoof patch series is stalled, need to make a decision on how to proceed. (kevinbenton will do this after beating requirements out of markmcclain)

-* macvtap ml2 driver and agent - will land in neutron tree. Question is how to procede with agent code (scheuran)
-** '''Aug 17 2015 update''' - sc68cal is working with scheuran in this gerrit topic https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/neutron+branch:master+topic:bug/1468803,n,z
-** 1) Copy (duplicate) required agent code like in the past.
-** 2) Extract a common base class for macvtap, linuxbridge and sriov-nic (impls are close to each other). Purpose: Sharing base agent code. Starting with macvtap only in liberty. Moving others to common base class in Mitaka. New agent base class cannot be used for OVS, as it already diverged too much from others.
-*** Liberty: only methods that are obious common and only differ in details that can be abstracted (_setup_rpc, _report_state, _device_info_has_changes, _process_network_devices)
-*** Mitaka: Methods that have a lot of common code, but require fruther thinking (treat_devices_added_updated, scan_devices, daemon_loop)
-*** N: Having a common agent with interface drivers?
-** Modular l2 agent (spec not in a good shape) and agent extension (is just for extending existing agents) is is not an option
-* Need decision on how to handle test jobs for Neutron client
