Ihar Hrachyshka 06cfce3756 neutron: enable ml2 mtu calculation mechanism
Setting path_mtu to reflect mtu for physical devices that handle traffic
issued from br-tun makes ml2 plugin to calculate mtu for tenant networks
properly, considering encapsulation headers. After that, calculated mtu
values can be propagated into instances (currently, only DHCP approach
is implemented; RA support for IPv6 subnets is under review).

This change allows to run tunnelled tenant networks in multinode when
underlying physical devices don't support jumbo frames.

Note: changing the default value in neutron would not be backwards
compatible, since it could slow down east-west tunnelled traffic in
clouds that run on jumbo-aware networks.

Neutron plugin specific files

Neutron plugins require plugin specific behavior. The files under the directory, lib/neutron_plugins/, will be used when their service is enabled. Each plugin has lib/neutron_plugins/$Q_PLUGIN and define the following functions. Plugin specific configuration variables should be in this file.

  • filename: $Q_PLUGIN
    • The corresponding file name MUST be the same to plugin name $Q_PLUGIN. Plugin specific configuration variables should be in this file.

functions

lib/neutron-legacy calls the following functions when the $Q_PLUGIN is enabled

  • neutron_plugin_create_nova_conf : optionally set options in nova_conf
  • neutron_plugin_install_agent_packages : install packages that is specific to plugin agent e.g. install_package bridge-utils
  • neutron_plugin_configure_common : set plugin-specific variables, Q_PLUGIN_CONF_PATH, Q_PLUGIN_CONF_FILENAME, Q_PLUGIN_CLASS
  • neutron_plugin_configure_debug_command
  • neutron_plugin_configure_dhcp_agent
  • neutron_plugin_configure_l3_agent
  • neutron_plugin_configure_plugin_agent
  • neutron_plugin_configure_service
  • neutron_plugin_setup_interface_driver
  • has_neutron_plugin_security_group: return 0 if the plugin support neutron security group otherwise return 1
  • neutron_plugin_check_adv_test_requirements: return 0 if requirements are satisfied otherwise return 1
