* rhel: Use correct default port for OVN SB databaseLance Richardson2017-03-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Fix typo in OVN SB database TCP port number. Fixes: commit 55f36be59122 ("rhel: Firewall service files for OVN.") Signed-off-by: Lance Richardson <lrichard@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Russell Bryant <russell@ovn.org>
* packaging: Make Fedora spec file CentOS compatibleLeif Madsen2017-03-081-15/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | On CentOS, the package names aren't prefixed with python2, but rather are prefixed with simply python. This change addresses that and fixes up some documentation that was outdated, and updates the Vagrantfile to use the proper spec file and package names.

* rhel-systemd: Restart openvswitch service if a daemon crashesEelco Chaudron2017-02-273-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently if either ovsdb-server or ovs-vswitchd is crashing the daemon is not restarting leaving the system in faulty state. This patch will detect the daemon crash and will restart the openvswitch service. Here is a (bit to wide) table showing the behavior before and after the patch. Note that only the Crash behavior has changed: Before patch: | Process Status | systemctl <> status | | ovs-vswitchd | ovsdb-server | openvswitch | ovs-vswitchd | ovsdb-server | +--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+ systemctl start openvswitch* | started | started |active,exited |active,running|active,running| Crash vswitchd | crashed | stopped |inactive, dead|failed |inactive,dead | Crash ovsdb | stopped | crashed |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |failed | systemctl restart openvswitch | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running| systemctl restart ovs-vswitchd | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running| systemctl restart ovsdb-server | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running| systemctl stop openvswitch | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead | systemctl stop ovs-vswitchd | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead | systemctl stop ovsdb-server | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead | systemctl start ovs-vswitchd* | started | started |inactive, dead|active,running|active,running| systemctl start ovsdb-server* | not started | started |inactive, dead|inactive, dead|active,running| With patch: | Process Status | systemctk <> status | | ovs-vswitchd | ovsdb-server | openvswitch | ovs-vswitchd | ovsdb-server | +--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+ systemctl start openvswitch* | started | started |active,exited |active,running|active,running| Crash vswitchd | crash,started| re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running| Crash ovsdb | re-started | crash,started|active,exited |active,running|active,running| systemctl restart openvswitch | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running| systemctl restart ovs-vswitchd | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running| systemctl restart ovsdb-server | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running| systemctl stop openvswitch | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead | systemctl stop ovs-vswitchd | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead | systemctl stop ovsdb-server | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead | systemctl start ovs-vswitchd* | started | started |inactive, dead|active,running|active,running| systemctl start ovsdb-server* | not started | started |inactive, dead|inactive, dead|active,running| * These commands where executed when no ovs related processes where running.

However, it seems that some people still would rather see environment variables specified through an old-style sysconfig file. It seems harmless enough to provide, so this patch adds it.

* netdev-dpdk: Remove dpdkvhostcuse portsCiara Loftus2016-08-152-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit removes the 'dpdkvhostcuse' port type from the userspace datapath. vhost-cuse ports are quickly becoming obsolete as the vhost-user port type begins to support a greater feature-set thanks to the addition of things like vhost-user multiqueue and potential upcoming features like vhost-user client-mode and vhost-user reconnect. The feature is also expected to be removed from DPDK soon. One potential drawback of the removal of this support is that a userspace vHost port type is not available in OVS for use with older versions of QEMU (pre v2.2). Considering v2.2 is nearly two years old this should however be a low impact change.

* fedora: Prioritize OVS modules in weak-updates.Joe Stringer2016-07-291-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Out-of-tree modules are installed into the kernel's "extra" modules directory for the version that kmod-openvswitch is compiled against. For all other kernels on the system at install time, a symlink is created in the "weak-updates" directory. This provides a path for the same kernel module to be used when minor kernel updates are done on a system. However, without updating the depmod configuration the weak-update will not be prioritized, so modprobe will switch back to using upstream kernel modules when you upgrade. This patch introduces that depmod configuration to ensure that the out-of-tree module is always used when it is installed, regardless of kernel upgrades.

* rhel: Fix ifup-ovs to delete ports first.Flavio Leitner2016-07-281-8/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When ifdown isn't executed (system didn't shut down properly), ports remain in the openvswitch's database. In that case, an inconsitency is left behind when the ifcfg was modified because ovs-vsctl won't do anything to update existing port's configuration in the database. The ifup/ifdown will operate only on configured interfaces, so this patch fixes the issue by deleting the port from the database before attempt to configure it with fresh configuration.
