Introduce an alternative OpenFlow implementation, "native", implemented using Ryu ofproto python library from Ryu SDN Framework. Make it selectable with of_driver=native agent option. The aim is to replace the existing ovs-ofctl based implementation eventually. It introduces node-local OpenFlow controller embedded in OVS agent. Benefits include: * Reduce the overhead of invoking ovs-ofctl command (and associated rootwrap) * Make future uses of OpenFlow asynchronous messages (e.g. Packet-In, Port-Status, etc) easier * Make XenAPI integration simpler Highlights: * Switch to OpenFlow 1.3. * Make OVS-agent act as an OpenFlow controller * Configure OVS on the node to connect to the controller DocImpact Implements: blueprint ovs-ofctl-to-python Co-Authored-by: IWAMOTO Toshihiro <iwamoto@valinux.co.jp> Change-Id: I02e65ea7c6083b2c0a686fed2ab04da4d92b21a3 |
