Description zenghui.shi 2021-07-30 02:32:37 UTC

Description of problem:


One issue identified during debugging bz1983894 is the combined use of CT/CT(nat) for original traffic causing CT actions not to be offloaded, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1983894#c15

This bug is created to track the combined use of CT/CT(nat) issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Details about the ovs/ovn/kernel/ovn-k8s versions and ovs datapath flows analysis for asymmetric issue can be found at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1983894#c0

Additional info:

There is a similar asymmetric path issue that was found for pod to external traffic: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1953278
which has a fix proposed in ovn project

Comment 1 Marcelo Ricardo Leitner 2021-07-30 19:10:59 UTC

This bug potentially affects other use cases as well and will cause issues with CT HWOL, as Zenghui indicated.

Comment 3 zenghui.shi 2021-08-09 02:38:44 UTC

This issue (combination of CT/CT(nat)) was fixed by updating ovn version to 21.09-host-21.09.0-8.el8fdp

Detailed test result can be found at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1986662#c9
