[Bug 1498957] [NEW] Add a 'dscp' field to security group rules to screen ingress traffic by dscp tag as well as IP address

 

Public bug reported:

This change will add to the current security group model an additional
option to allow for traffic to be restricted to a given DSCP tag in
addition to the current IP address based restriction.  Incoming traffic
would need to match both the IP address/CIDR block as well as the DSCP
tag - if one is set.

Changes:
* DB model changes to add a DSCP tag column to security groups.
* API changes to allow for DSCP tag configuration options to be supplied to security group API calls.
* Neutron agent changes to implement configuring IPTables with the additional DSCP tag configuration.

Note: This is complimentary functionality to the "QoS DSCP marking rule
support" change which, when implemented, will provide Neutron with an
interface to configure QoS policies to mark outgoing traffic with DSCP
tags.  See also: QoS DSCP marking rule support:
