Description Aaron Park 2022-02-14 07:43:04 UTC
Description of problem:

Customers are performing validations on clusters for Verizon operators.
They load the Pods with heavy traffic, and packet loss occurs when communicating between Pods.


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

- OCP 4.8.24(OVN + IPv6)
- network
Network : 
spec:
  clusterNetwork:
  - cidr: fd01::/48
    hostPrefix: 64
  externalIP:
    policy: {}
  networkType: OVNKubernetes
  serviceNetwork:
  - fd02::/112


How reproducible:

- Packet loss occurs during communication between pods
UPP Pod -> UIP Pod

- Packets sent to UPP -> UIP are caught as dumps,
No packets were received in the UIP dump.

At UPP side:
08:46:06.602831 IP6 (class 0xe0, flowlabel 0x23553, hlim 64, next-header UDP (17) payload length: 264) fd01-0-0-5--24c5.aupf9901-uip0.cnf-aupf.svc.cluster.local.27035 > aupf9901-upp0-0.aupf9901-upp0.cnf-aupf.svc.cluster.local.27120: [udp sum ok] UDP, length 256

08:46:06.604583 IP6 (class 0xe0, flowlabel 0x67f7e, hlim 64, next-header UDP (17) payload length: 44) aupf9901-upp0-0.aupf9901-upp0.cnf-aupf.svc.cluster.local.27120 > aupf9901-uip0.cnf-aupf.svc.cluster.local.27035: [bad udp cksum 0xaeac -> 0xb07b!] UDP, length 36 <---- UIP can't receive this msg

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:

No packets were received in the UIP dump.

Expected results:

Communication should be done without packet loss.

Additional info:

- The customer has attached the data below.
  - worker node sosreport
  - must-gather
  - pcap for each pods
