LBaaS Common Agent-based Driver
Rationale
Haproxy-on-host reference implementation which is using agents is quite specific:
- with haproxy it is easier to deploy the whole loadbalancer config from scratch every time
then to create/update/delete separate components
- namespace driver needs virtual interface driver on init,
other drivers may have their own specific parameters
So it is useful to unify reference agent implementation to:
* make it suite any driver which wants to use async mechanism * have single lbaas agent type and hense single agent scheduling mechanism
Required: 1. Revision of agent API 2. Revision of agent loading device driver(s) mechanism
