Bugs
Important bugs:
- [1] neutron test_multi_prefix_slaac failing in the gate with ping failures starting around 7/22
- [2] neutron.tests.functional.agent.test_l3_agent.MetadataL3AgentTestCase.test_access_to_metadata_proxy times out intermittently
- [3] Referencing a lb-healthmonitor ID for the first time from Heat would fail
- [4] sporadic test failures due to VMs not getting a DHCP lease
- [5] migrate_to_ml2 script doesn't work for Juno release
- [6] security groups don't work with vip and ovs plugin
- Two bugs are hurting the functional job in the gate:
- [7] agent.test_l3_agent.MetadataL3AgentTestCase.test_access_to_metadata_proxy times out intermittently
- [8] radvd exits -1 intermittently in test_ha_router_process_ipv6_subnets_to_existing_port
- Linuxbridge Gate Parity Bugs
- [9] nova libvirtError: Unable to add bridge brqxxx-xx port tapxxx-xx: Device or resource busy

On Demand Agenda
- 3rd party Ci systems: Can they vote -1?
- Liberty-3 BPs and reviews
- Concrete plan to merge back pecan and QoS work
- Need to do this very early after Liberty-2 is cut this week
- 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)
- 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
