[Bug 1978088] [NEW] After ovs-agent restart, table=21 and table=22 on br-tun openflow table is missing

 

Public bug reported:

In the following scenarios (especially in large-scale cases, when
restarting many ovs-agents at the same time), the openflow table is
missing and cannot be self-recovered

As a simple example, restarting two ovs-agent at the same time:
```
network.local_ip=30.0.1.6,output="vxlan-1e000106"
compute1.local_ip=30.0.1.7,output="vxlan-1e000107"
compute2.local_ip=30.0.1.8,output="vxlan-1e000108"

network.port=('192.168.1.2')
compute1.port=('192.168.1.11')
compute2.port=('192.168.1.141')

1. After iter_num=0, cleanup_stale_flows clears table=21 and table=22 of stale openflow tables
2. If compute1 receives rpc-4 first, tunnels_missing=False
3. rpc-1 timeout not received 
4. As a result, table=22,priority=1, output is missing output="vxlan-1e000106" and table=21,priority=1 is missing 192.168.1.2 arp responder table
5. Missing flow tables will always be missing, resulting in VMs under this network not being able to communicate with VMs under the network node at layer 2
