OVS uses a default "empty" configuration for the default queue.  This
behavior should be more acceptable when QoS is slightly misconfigured.

Before this patch, every request for a 'netdev_dev''s flags
required an ioctl call.  This occurred every time
netdev_get_carrier() was called, which theoretically was very often
if there were a large number of devices.  We were already using
netlink to keep track of the IFF_RUNNING flag. This patch
generalizes the code to keep track of all flags using the same
netlink code.

12 years agotests: Reduce risk of port collision and remove bash dependency.

tests: Reduce risk of port collision and remove bash dependency.

A few tests need a random TCP port on which to listen for connections.
Until now, the tests have used the $RANDOM bash extension to do this, but
this runs the risk of occasionally colliding with an in-use port.  This
commit removes the bash dependency by switching to using a small Perl
program to pick random ports and reduces the risk of collision by
attempting to bind the port that it chooses.

12 years agoovs-xapi-sync: Always set iface-id, not just when xs-vif-uuid changes.
Ben Pfaff [Thu, 2 Feb 2012 01:18:52 +0000 (17:18 -0800)]
ovs-xapi-sync: Always set iface-id, not just when xs-vif-uuid changes.

When XAPI moves an interface from one bridge to another, the vif script
removes the vif from one bridge and adds it to (possibly) a different
bridge in a single transaction.  The new record does not have an iface-id
initially (because the vif script never adds the iface-id initially) but
it has the same name and xs-vif-uuid as the old one, so the caching logic
in ovs-xapi-sync failed to add a new iface-id.  This commit fixes the
caching logic.

Observed on XenServer 5.6.100.  It's possible that XAPI behavior changed in
later versions so the bug cannot be triggered there, but we have not
checked.
