[Bug 1879307] [NEW] Recent stable/rocky change breaks networking-calico's interface driver

 

Public bug reported:

This merge -
https://opendev.org/openstack/neutron/commit/a6fb2faaa5d46656db9085ad6bcfc65ded807871
- to the Neutron stable/rocky branch on April 23rd, has broken my team's
Neutron plugin, by requiring 3rd party LinuxInterfaceDriver subclasses
to take a new 'link_up' argument in their 'plug_new' method.

Here's the fix that I've now made: https://github.com/projectcalico
/networking-
calico/pull/21/commits/bfd54aa841abbba4c591126b0dba083b93c84536

However, this likely affects other out-of-tree plugins as well, and
there is still the likelihood of breakage if someone is running Rocky
with an affected-but-unfixed plugin, and uses the latest Rocky code.

Apparently there will not be another Rocky patch release, so I wonder if
it would be better to revert the incompatible change?
