[Bug 2059716] [NEW] [ovn] Multihomed backend (IPv4 + IPv6) with floating IP unreachable

 

Public bug reported:

We've got an interesting scenario where one of the backends of a load
balancer is not reachable given the following test environment:

2x networks
- provider network, IPv4 + IPv6 subnets
- tenant network (Geneve), IPv4 + IPv6 subnets

3x VMs
- 2x single port, 2 IP addresses on the tenant network
- 1x single port, 2 IP addresses on the tenant network + floating IP (IPv4 only) attached

Load balancer:
- Using single tenant network, with floating IP (IPv4 only) attached
- OVN provider

With the setup above, the VM with the floating IP attached will not be
reachable by the load balancer (aka, hitting it multiple times will
timeout 1/3 of the time).  If you remove the floating IP and re-attach
it, it works.

In troubleshooting, we've noticed that when removing the IPv6 subnet
from the tenant network resolves this, so I suspect that it's somehow to
do with that.
