16:15 <mmichelson> Hi everyone, it's time to begin the weekly OVN developers' meeting.

16:16 <fnordahl> o/

16:16 <mmichelson> I can give a quick update to begin.

16:16 <mmichelson> I'm essentially finished with the lflow sync refactor I've been working on. I'm planning to put a new version of the port binding refactor up since I found a test case that passes, but it causes an ovn-northd crash.

16:17 <mmichelson> I am planning to put out point releases of supported OVN versions upstream tomorrow. I'll post the patches either later today or early (for me) tomorrow.

16:17 <mmichelson> That's all from me.

16:17 <mmichelson> Who would like to give the next update?

16:19 <mmichelson> ........is anyone else here?

16:19 <fnordahl> I can give a quick update

16:19 <mmichelson> go ahead fnordahl

16:20 <fnordahl> Still mostly downstream stuff, the most upstream-ish thing is contribution to Jakub's Neutron RFE https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2111276 and starting a ML thread on A/V spec boootstrap https://lists.openstack.org/archives/list/openstack-discuss@lists.openstack.org/thread/7SF6L2UMMXUWBY6AAKE5HYQK7XMVKWL6/

16:21 <fnordahl> Following the thread on fixes to missing error checking for NL interactions, and still intend to review mj2s multi-node test. I've seen some weirdness in route learning related to dynamic routing option in effect on multiple LRPs which we'll investigate once we get that far

16:21 <fnordahl> That's it for me

16:21 <mmichelson> Thanks fnordahl

16:22 <mmichelson> who wants to go next?

16:22 <numans> I can go real quick.

16:22 <mmichelson> go for it numans

16:23 <numans> I have been working on ovn-provider-controller

16:23 <numans> And I submitted the proposal here - https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2025-June/423862.html

16:23 <numans> thanks dceara for the comments

16:24 <numans> I forgot to mention that this service and its corresponding db needs to be run on each chassis. I'll reply to the mailing thread

16:25 <numans> I didn't get much time for reviews. I'm hoping to take a look at Network function insertion series - https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/ovn/list/?series=458355

16:25 <numans> That's it from me.

16:25 <mmichelson> Thanks numans!

16:25 <mmichelson> who would like to go next?

16:25 <dceara> numans, ah, I had missed that part, but it makes sense. The CMS usually program the provider bridge through a local connection

16:25 <dceara> mmichelson, I can go next, if that's OK.

16:25 <mmichelson> dceara, go for that.

16:25 <mmichelson> that?

16:25 <mmichelson> it!

16:26 <dceara> Going for that! :)

16:26 <dceara> Related to fnordahl report, I've been assisting Jakub (jlibosva) with his PoC to use OVN's BGP support.

16:27 <dceara> Until now it seems to be mostly working as expected, found a few small issues and sent patches for them.

16:27 <jlibosva> and I want to thank dceara very much for that :)

16:27 <dceara> The only thing is that we might want to make configurable the behavior of advertising NAT/LB IPs from all nodes (instead of only on the nodes where they reside).

16:28 <dceara> Waiting for jlibosva's confirmation but if things work ok I might send out a small feature patch for that.

16:28 <dceara> Aside from that, slowly progressing on the evpn integration front. Also did some reviews.

16:28 <dceara> That's it from me, thanks!

16:28 <mmichelson> Thanks dceara

16:28 <mmichelson> anyone else?

16:29 <imaximets> Sorry, missed most of the meeting. But don't really have much to report.

16:30 <mmichelson> imaximets, ack

16:31 <mmichelson> OK, I think that's everyone then.

16:31 <mmichelson> Since I'm finally finished with the lflow sync refactor patch, I'm hoping this frees me up for reviews and looking at numans's proposal in some more depth.

16:31 <mmichelson> Thanks everyone, and have a great day!

16:31 <fnordahl> \o thanks all, cheers!

16:31 <mmichelson> bye!

16:31 <dceara> Thanks, bye!

16:31 <imaximets> Thanks! Bye.
