Description Flavio Leitner 2020-06-26 16:33:42 UTC
Description of problem:

When a core is generated, it is impossible to tell from which package it came from.

The packaging NVR is critical support information.

One idea is to change ovs_version at build time to be RPM version-release, but it may cause scripting issues, so not sure.

Perhaps it could include package_version along with ovs_version, so that ovs-vsctl command shows like below:

# ovs-vsctl show | grep version
    ovs_version: "2.13.0"
    ovs_package: <packaging ID/NVR>

And we could easily get that from core since it would be global variable.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.9.0 but it should be the same in upstream branch master

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start OVS service
2. kill -ABRT ovs-vswitchd/ovsdb-server to generate a core
3. Try to find the OVS package NVR from the core.

Actual results:
That critical support information is missing.

Expected results:
Easy to find identify which package NVR was being used.
