I am cloning this issue under the OVN Kubernetes component to see if it's possible changing https://github.com/openshift/machine-config-operator/blob/master/templates/common/_base/files/configure-ovs-network.yaml to use different name for OVS bridge/port/interface according to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1913248#c4


+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1913248 +++

Description of problem:

I am trying to create the following NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy:

---
apiVersion: nmstate.io/v1alpha1
kind: NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy
metadata:
  name: bigip-bridges
spec:
  nodeSelector:
    node-role.kubernetes.io/worker: ""
  desiredState:
    interfaces:
    - name: bond0.375
      type: vlan
      state: up
      vlan:
        base-iface: bond0
        id: 375

    - name: bigip-mgmt
      description: Linux bridge with bond0 vlan375 as a port!
      type: linux-bridge
      state: up
      bridge:
        options:
          stp:
            enabled: false
        port:
        - name: bond0.375

    - name: bond0.376
      type: vlan
      state: up
      vlan:
        base-iface: bond0
        id: 376

    - name: bigip-ha
      description: Linux bridge with bond0 vlan376 as a port!
      type: linux-bridge
      state: up
      bridge:

          stp:
            enabled: false
        port:
        - name: bond0.376


which results in the following error message:

python3-libnmstate-0.3.4-17.el8_3.noarch
nmstate-0.3.4-17.el8_3.noarc

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:

1. Deploy OCP 4.7 via baremetal IPI flow. Nodes have the following network layout: one nic used for provisioning network and 2 nics grouped in a bond used for the control plane network

2. Deploy CNV 2.6

3. Create the following NNCP

        port:

Actual results:

NNCP fails to get configured

Expected results:

NNCP is configured correctly

@fge I don't see anything wrong with the configuration, do you? Could it be a bug in nmstate? Note that br-ex (to which bond0 is connected) is an OVS bridge.

--- Additional comment from Gris Ge on 2021-01-08 05:21:29 UTC ---

nmstate-0.3 does not support applying state with OVS interface holding the same name with OVS bridge.

In my test, when br_ex does not hold DNS or routes, the state apply goes well.

Please confirm my guess on the network setup:

## Before nmstatectl run:

 * enp4s0 no idea.
 * enp5s0 and enp6s0 be bond0 slave/port.
 * bond0 be system interface of OVS bridge br_ex which also the OVS internal interface named as br_ex.
 * br0_ex OVS internal interface holding the DNS and default gateway.

## Nmstatectl run:
 * Create two vlan 375 and 376 out of bond0. And assign each vlan to a new bridge.

Found the root cause.

Base on the output of above `nmcli con`, you are using `br-ex` and `bond0` for both OVS bridge, OVS port and OVS interface.
Which cause nmstate-0.3 think `bond0, eth1 and eth2` are port/slave of OVS bridge br_ex which the triggered above exception.

I will continue my investigation on this.

--- Additional comment from Gris Ge on 2021-01-08 08:26:56 UTC ---

Even nmstate somehow supported OVS bridge/port/interface using the same name, you will still stopped by NetworkManager bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1914139

So my suggestion is change this `baremetal IPI flow` to use different name for OVS bridge/port/interface.
