neutron-api config for path-mtu gives false positive #184

Open esunar opened 2 years ago

esunar commented 2 years ago

When linting a bundle generated on fce-templates it's possible to see this error:

ERROR Application neutron-api has incorrect setting for 'path-mtu': Expected 9000, got 1558

Talking with Nobuto, this is a false positive. path-mtu should be set to <= 1550 for ovs and set to <= 1558 to ovn.

SolQA will eventually update those values on BB (Bundle Builder) to differentiate ovs and ovn.

Imported from Launchpad using lp2gh.

(by nobuto) To be more precise, it can be bigger than 1550 or 1558, but to use mtu=1500 on tenant networks, those two values are the requirement.

Using bigger value can be a problem especially with OVN when communicating with other external networks through a router because of missing: https://bugs.launchpad.net/charm-neutron-api-plugin-ovn/+bug/1947391

For the time being, the lint rule can be path-mtu >=1550 for ovs, and path-mtu >=1558 for ovn.

For the time being, the lint rule can be path-mtu >=1550 for ovs, and path-mtu >=1558 for ovn.

I've already send a patch to review that is adding two capabilities:

So right now the patch is sending a warning message if the path-mtu >= 1550 for ovs, and path-mtu >= 1558 for ovn. The message says:

"Application neutron-api has config for 'path-mtu' which is bigger than . Using bigger value can be a problem to communicate with other external networks through a router."

What do you think Nobuto?

Setting the lint rule path-mtu >= 1550 or path-matu >= 1558 would be easier, but I think it's a good feature for juju-lint be able to control custom messages and log-level.
