Description of problem: Need to backport upstream Neutron fix 150110 "Improve DVR scale performance" to RHEL-OSP6. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL-OSP-6 (Juno) A4 (latest) How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create 5 or more instances 2. Attach floating ips to the instances 3. Delete instances Actual results: The deletion causes ERROR in l3-agent (PortNotFound), which in turn triggers ERROR 'Failed to fetch router information' for the involved router. This in turn causes 'fullsync' of all Neutron routers, which is a very cpu intensive process in an environment with ~100-1000 routers. The high load averages (70-80% system time) cause the OpenStack environment to become sluggish as the Neutron L3 agent and neutron-server are running on the 3 HA controllers (co-located with other OpenStack services). Expected results: The deletion of multiple instances should NOT cause PortNotFound error, thus avoiding unnecessary full router sync. Additional info: The issue discovered/confirmed in IRC session with Assaf Muller. According to amuller, the fix is contained in https://review.openstack.org/#/c/150110/
Patch is present in OSP 7+, we need an OSP 6 downstream backport.
Checked with openstack-neutron-2014.2.3-19.el7ost.noarch
