Description Surya Seetharaman 2021-09-24 08:38:48 UTC
Description of problem:

Let's say we do two route add commands:

/usr/bin/ovn-nbctl --timeout=15 --may-exist --bfd --policy=src-ip --ecmp-symmetric-reply lr-route-add GR_ovn-worker 10.244.0.5/32 172.18.0.4 rtoe-GR_ovn-worker
/usr/bin/ovn-nbctl --timeout=15 --may-exist --bfd --policy=src-ip --ecmp-symmetric-reply lr-route-add GR_ovn-worker2 10.244.2.5/32 172.18.0.4 rtoe-GR_ovn-worker2

We'd expect two sessions: one from 0.5 to 0.4 and another from 2.5 to 0.4. Currently the way OVN creates a bfd session is:

Introduce the --bfd option to lr-route-add command.
If the BFD session UUID is provided, it will be used for the OVN route
otherwise the next-hop will be used to perform a lookup in the OVN BFD
table.
If the lookup fails and outport is specified, a new entry in the BFD table
will be created using the nexthop as dst_ip and outport as logical_port.



How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create two routes one from x1 to y1 and another from x2 to y1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
Only one session from x1 to y1 will be created. x2 to y1 will fail because OVN checks that y1 already has a bfd session and won't create a new one.

Expected results:
We should have two bfd sessions.

> rtoe-GR_ovn-worker2

we need to consider output interface as well looking for an existing bfd session.
For the time being we can create 2 different bfd seesions with different outports and then link them to the static routes with --bfd uuid

Comment 3 Surya Seetharaman 2021-09-29 11:01:22 UTC
Tested this PR on an OCP OVN-K cluster and it works as expected. I created two pods on different nodes having the same nexthop and OVN created two BFD sessions one from each of the GW routers on those nodes towards the nexthop/dst_ip.

Would be good if we could move this patch along.
