[Bug 1690165] [NEW] Gratutuious ARP updates sent by Neutron L3 agent may be ignored by Linux peers

 

Public bug reported:

An ufortunate scenario in Linux kernel explained in
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/760372/ may result in no gARP being
honoured by Linux network peers. To work the kernel bug around, we may
want to spread updates more, not to hit default kernel locktime which is
1s.
