[Bug 1840147] [NEW] network-vif-plugged and friends are not well documented

 

Public bug reported:

network-vif-plugged and friends are not well documented.
the timing when those events are sent varies among drivers.
inter-project api like this should be defined and documented super-clearly.

the behaviour isn't consistent even within reference implementations.
nova folks call them bind-time events vs plug-time events.
https://review.opendev.org/#/c/667177/

networking-midonet always make compute ports ACTIVE. (create-time events?)
https://github.com/openstack/networking-midonet/blob/stable/stein/midonet/neutron/ml2/mech_driver.py#L178
it stopped working recently.

networking-ovn has a relevant dirty hack.
https://review.opendev.org/#/c/673803/
it has a nice bug description.
