This is usefule when external_ids:ovn-monitor-all is set to true.

Hi Han,

Looks good to me.

I also tested this (together with your previous patch) on a scaled setup
with 150 ovn-fake-multinode nodes and ovn-monitor-all enabled.

With OVN master I see high CPU usage on ovn-controllers from time to time:

With your changes this happens less often:

Thanks Dumitru for reviewing and testing it out.
Are you seeing high CPU only after applying this patch? In theory I think
this patch should not contribute to CPU spike.
Enabling ovn-monitor-all can result in higher CPU in ovn-controller in
circumstances when not all datapaths are local. In your test case, is the
topology ideal for ovn-monitor-all? I.e. does each node cares about all
datapaths? If the answer is yes, then could you try enabling
ovn-monitor-all only on half of the nodes, and see if the nodes with
ovn-monitor-all enabled are with higher CPU than others?

In addition, did you see any difference of CPU usage on SB DB?

Thanks,
Han

Hi Han,

In my test topology all datapaths are local (i.e., all logical switches
are connected to a single cluster logical router).

The test machine I used initially was oversubscribed so I ran the tests
again on a setup with more physical machines:

1. With OVN master, ovn-monitor-all=false, bringing up 300 nodes (300
logical switches + one VIF per switch):
- SB DB CPU usage is high after a certain number of nodes come up.
Running perf on the setup points to ovsdb_monitor_get_update that takes
up to 70% CPU time (including children). This due to each ovn-controller
subscribing to OVSDB updates for all datapaths individually.
- ovn-controller CPU usage is normal, i.e., no visible CPU spikes.

2. With OVN master, ovn-monitor-all=true, bringing up 300 nodes:
- SB DB CPU usage is low, no visible CPU spikes.
- ovn-controller CPU usage is normal as well.

3. With OVN master + your patches, ovn-monitor-all=true, bringing up 300
nodes:
- SB DB CPU usage is low, no visible CPU spikes.
- ovn-controller CPU usage is normal as well.

In conclusion all seems fine to me and even in the worst case scenario,
when all datapaths are local, ovn-controller cpu usage is not affected
by the extra datapath lookups introduced by your changes.

Thanks,
Dumitru

Hi Dumitru, thanks for the testing and sharing! I applied the patch to
