[Bug 1754062] [NEW] openstack client does not pass prefixlen when creating subnet

 

Public bug reported:

Version: Pike
OpenStack Client: 3.12.0

When testing Subnet Pool functionality, I found that the behavior
between the openstack and neutron clients is different.

Subnet pool:

When attempting to create a /28 subnet from that pool with the openstack
client, the following error is observed:

root@controller01:~# openstack subnet create \
> --subnet-pool MySubnetPool \
> --prefix-length 28 \
> --network MyVLANNetwork2 \
> MyFlatSubnetFromPool
HttpException: Internal Server Error (HTTP 500) (Request-ID: req-61b3f00a-9764-4bcb-899d-e85d66f54e5a), Failed to allocate subnet: Insufficient prefix space to allocate subnet size /8.

However, the same request is successful with the neutron client:

root@controller01:~# neutron subnet-create --subnetpool MySubnetPool --prefixlen 28 --name MySubnetFromPool MyVLANNetwork2
neutron CLI is deprecated and will be removed in the future. Use openstack CLI instead.

The payload is different between these clients - the openstack client
fails to send the prefixlen key.

openstack client:

REQ: curl -g -i -X POST http://controller01:9696/v2.0/subnets -H "User-Agent: openstacksdk/0.9.17 keystoneauth1/3.1.0 python-requests/2.18.1 CPython/2.7.12" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "X-Auth-Token: {SHA1}ec04a71699eee2c70dc4abb35037de272523fef0" -d '{"subnet": {"network_id": "e01ca743-607c-4a94-9176-b572a46fba84", "ip_version": 4, "name": "MyFlatSubnetFromPool", "subnetpool_id": "e49703d8-27f4-4a16-9bf4-91a6cf00fff3"}}'
http://controller01:9696 "POST /v2.0/subnets HTTP/1.1" 500 160

neutron client:

REQ: curl -g -i -X POST http://controller01:9696/v2.0/subnets -H "User-
Agent: python-neutronclient" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H
"Accept: application/json" -H "X-Auth-Token:
{SHA1}b3b6f0fa14c2b28c5c9784f857ee753455c1d375" -d '{"subnet":
{"network_id": "e01ca743-607c-4a94-9176-b572a46fba84", "prefixlen":
"28", "ip_version": 4, "subnetpool_id":
"e49703d8-27f4-4a16-9bf4-91a6cf00fff3", "name": "MySubnetFromPool"}}'

This appears to stem from prefixlen missing as a query parameter and
property in the python-openstacksdk here:

https://github.com/openstack/python-openstacksdk/blob/master/openstack/network/v2/subnet.py#L32
https://github.com/openstack/python-openstacksdk/blob/master/openstack/network/v2/subnet.py#L43

The Neutron docs do not show prefixlen as a subnet as a valid property,
which could be why:

https://developer.openstack.org/api-ref/network/v2/index.html#create-
subnet

I was able to patch the openstack SDK in my environment and got the
client to work. Please let me know if you have any questions!
