[Bug 1797084] [NEW] Stale namespaces when fallback tunnels are present

 

Public bug reported:

When a network namespace is created, if the sysctl
fb_tunnels_only_for_init_net option is set to 0 (by default), fallback
tunnel devices will be automatically created if the initial namespace
had those in.

This leads to neutron ip_lib detecting namespaces as 'not empty' thus
unable to clean them up.

We need to add these devices so that they are taken into account when
determining if a namespace is empty or not.
