NAME
ovn-controller - Open Virtual Network local controller
SYNOPSIS
ovn-controller [options] [ovs-database]
DESCRIPTION
ovn-controller is the local controller daemon for OVN, the Open Virtual
Network. It connects up to the OVN Southbound database (see ovn-sb(5))
over the OVSDB protocol, and down to the Open vSwitch database (see
ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5)) over the OVSDB protocol and to ovs-vswitchd(8)
via OpenFlow. Each hypervisor and software gateway in an OVN deployment
runs its own independent copy of ovn-controller; thus, ovn-controller’s
downward connections are machine-local and do not run over a physical
network.
ACL LOGGING
ACL log messages are logged through ovn-controller’s logging mechanism.
ACL log entries have the module acl_log at log level info. Configuring
logging is described below in the Logging Options section.
OPTIONS
Daemon Options
--pidfile[=pidfile]
Causes a file (by default, program.pid) to be created indicating
the PID of the running process. If the pidfile argument is not
specified, or if it does not begin with /, then it is created in
.
If --pidfile is not specified, no pidfile is created.
--overwrite-pidfile
By default, when --pidfile is specified and the specified pid‐
file already exists and is locked by a running process, the dae‐
mon refuses to start. Specify --overwrite-pidfile to cause it to
instead overwrite the pidfile.
When --pidfile is not specified, this option has no effect.
--detach
Runs this program as a background process. The process forks,
and in the child it starts a new session, closes the standard
file descriptors (which has the side effect of disabling logging
to the console), and changes its current directory to the root
(unless --no-chdir is specified). After the child completes its
initialization, the parent exits.
--monitor
Creates an additional process to monitor this program. If it
dies due to a signal that indicates a programming error (SIGA‐‐
BRT, SIGALRM, SIGBUS, SIGFPE, SIGILL, SIGPIPE, SIGSEGV, SIGXCPU,
or SIGXFSZ) then the monitor process starts a new copy of it. If
the daemon dies or exits for another reason, the monitor process
exits.
This option is normally used with --detach, but it also func‐
tions without it.
--no-chdir
By default, when --detach is specified, the daemon changes its
current working directory to the root directory after it de‐
taches. Otherwise, invoking the daemon from a carelessly chosen
directory would prevent the administrator from unmounting the
file system that holds that directory.
Specifying --no-chdir suppresses this behavior, preventing the
daemon from changing its current working directory. This may be
useful for collecting core files, since it is common behavior to
write core dumps into the current working directory and the root
directory is not a good directory to use.
This option has no effect when --detach is not specified.
--no-self-confinement
By default this daemon will try to self-confine itself to work
with files under well-known directories determined at build
time. It is better to stick with this default behavior and not
to use this flag unless some other Access Control is used to
confine daemon. Note that in contrast to other access control
implementations that are typically enforced from kernel-space
(e.g. DAC or MAC), self-confinement is imposed from the user-
space daemon itself and hence should not be considered as a full
confinement strategy, but instead should be viewed as an addi‐
tional layer of security.
--user=user:group
Causes this program to run as a different user specified in
user:group, thus dropping most of the root privileges. Short
forms user and :group are also allowed, with current user or
group assumed, respectively. Only daemons started by the root
user accepts this argument.
On Linux, daemons will be granted CAP_IPC_LOCK and
CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICES before dropping root privileges. Daemons
that interact with a datapath, such as ovs-vswitchd, will be
granted three additional capabilities, namely CAP_NET_ADMIN,
CAP_NET_BROADCAST and CAP_NET_RAW. The capability change will
apply even if the new user is root.
On Windows, this option is not currently supported. For security
reasons, specifying this option will cause the daemon process
not to start.
Logging Options
-v[spec]
--verbose=[spec]
Sets logging levels. Without any spec, sets the log level for
every module and destination to dbg. Otherwise, spec is a list of
words separated by spaces or commas or colons, up to one from each
category below:
• A valid module name, as displayed by the vlog/list command
on ovs-appctl(8), limits the log level change to the speci‐
fied module.
• syslog, console, or file, to limit the log level change to
only to the system log, to the console, or to a file, re‐
spectively. (If --detach is specified, the daemon closes
its standard file descriptors, so logging to the console
will have no effect.)
On Windows platform, syslog is accepted as a word and is
only useful along with the --syslog-target option (the word
has no effect otherwise).
• off, emer, err, warn, info, or dbg, to control the log
level. Messages of the given severity or higher will be
logged, and messages of lower severity will be filtered
out. off filters out all messages. See ovs-appctl(8) for a
definition of each log level.
Case is not significant within spec.
Regardless of the log levels set for file, logging to a file will
not take place unless --log-file is also specified (see below).
For compatibility with older versions of OVS, any is accepted as a
word but has no effect.
-v
--verbose
Sets the maximum logging verbosity level, equivalent to --ver‐‐
bose=dbg.
-vPATTERN:destination:pattern
--verbose=PATTERN:destination:pattern
Sets the log pattern for destination to pattern. Refer to ovs-ap‐‐
pctl(8) for a description of the valid syntax for pattern.
-vFACILITY:facility
--verbose=FACILITY:facility
Sets the RFC5424 facility of the log message. facility can be one
of kern, user, mail, daemon, auth, syslog, lpr, news, uucp, clock,
ftp, ntp, audit, alert, clock2, local0, local1, local2, local3,
local4, local5, local6 or local7. If this option is not specified,
daemon is used as the default for the local system syslog and lo‐‐
cal0 is used while sending a message to the target provided via
the --syslog-target option.
--log-file[=file]
Enables logging to a file. If file is specified, then it is used
as the exact name for the log file. The default log file name used
if file is omitted is /usr/local/var/log/ovn/program.log.
--syslog-target=host:port
Send syslog messages to UDP port on host, in addition to the sys‐
tem syslog. The host must be a numerical IP address, not a host‐
name.
--syslog-method=method
Specify method as how syslog messages should be sent to syslog
daemon. The following forms are supported:
• libc, to use the libc syslog() function. Downside of using
this options is that libc adds fixed prefix to every mes‐
sage before it is actually sent to the syslog daemon over
/dev/log UNIX domain socket.
• unix:file, to use a UNIX domain socket directly. It is pos‐
sible to specify arbitrary message format with this option.
However, rsyslogd 8.9 and older versions use hard coded
parser function anyway that limits UNIX domain socket use.
If you want to use arbitrary message format with older
rsyslogd versions, then use UDP socket to localhost IP ad‐
dress instead.
• udp:ip:port, to use a UDP socket. With this method it is
possible to use arbitrary message format also with older
rsyslogd. When sending syslog messages over UDP socket ex‐
tra precaution needs to be taken into account, for example,
syslog daemon needs to be configured to listen on the spec‐
ified UDP port, accidental iptables rules could be inter‐
fering with local syslog traffic and there are some secu‐
rity considerations that apply to UDP sockets, but do not
apply to UNIX domain sockets.
• null, to discard all messages logged to syslog.
The default is taken from the OVS_SYSLOG_METHOD environment vari‐
able; if it is unset, the default is libc.
PKI Options
PKI configuration is required in order to use SSL for the connections
to the Northbound and Southbound databases.
-p privkey.pem
--private-key=privkey.pem
Specifies a PEM file containing the private key used as
identity for outgoing SSL connections.
-c cert.pem
--certificate=cert.pem
Specifies a PEM file containing a certificate that certi‐
fies the private key specified on -p or --private-key to be
trustworthy. The certificate must be signed by the certifi‐
cate authority (CA) that the peer in SSL connections will
use to verify it.
-C cacert.pem
--ca-cert=cacert.pem
Specifies a PEM file containing the CA certificate for ver‐
ifying certificates presented to this program by SSL peers.
(This may be the same certificate that SSL peers use to
verify the certificate specified on -c or --certificate, or
it may be a different one, depending on the PKI design in
use.)
-C none
--ca-cert=none
Disables verification of certificates presented by SSL
peers. This introduces a security risk, because it means
that certificates cannot be verified to be those of known
trusted hosts.
--bootstrap-ca-cert=cacert.pem
When cacert.pem exists, this option has the same effect
as -C or --ca-cert. If it does not exist, then the exe‐
cutable will attempt to obtain the CA certificate from
the SSL peer on its first SSL connection and save it to
the named PEM file. If it is successful, it will immedi‐
ately drop the connection and reconnect, and from then on
all SSL connections must be authenticated by a certifi‐
cate signed by the CA certificate thus obtained.
This option exposes the SSL connection to a man-in-the-
middle attack obtaining the initial CA certificate, but
it may be useful for bootstrapping.
This option is only useful if the SSL peer sends its CA
certificate as part of the SSL certificate chain. The SSL
protocol does not require the server to send the CA cer‐
tificate.
This option is mutually exclusive with -C and --ca-cert.
--peer-ca-cert=peer-cacert.pem
Specifies a PEM file that contains one or more additional
certificates to send to SSL peers. peer-cacert.pem should
be the CA certificate used to sign the program’s own cer‐
tificate, that is, the certificate specified on -c or
--certificate. If the program’s certificate is self-
signed, then --certificate and --peer-ca-cert should
specify the same file.
This option is not useful in normal operation, because
the SSL peer must already have the CA certificate for the
peer to have any confidence in the program’s identity.
However, this offers a way for a new installation to
bootstrap the CA certificate on its first SSL connection.
Other Options
-h
--help
Prints a brief help message to the console.
-V
--version
Prints version information to the console.
CONFIGURATION
ovn-controller retrieves most of its configuration information from the
local Open vSwitch’s ovsdb-server instance. The default location is
db.sock in the local Open vSwitch’s "run" directory. It may be overrid‐
den by specifying the ovs-database argument as an OVSDB active or pas‐
sive connection method, as described in ovsdb(7).
ovn-controller assumes it gets configuration information from the fol‐
lowing keys in the Open_vSwitch table of the local OVS instance:
external_ids:system-id
The chassis name to use in the Chassis table. Changing
the system-id while ovn-controller is running is not di‐
rectly supported. Users have two options: either first
gracefully stop ovn-controller or manually delete the
stale Chassis and Chassis_Private records after changing
the system-id.
external_ids:hostname
The hostname to use in the Chassis table.
external_ids:ovn-bridge
The integration bridge to which logical ports are at‐
tached. The default is br-int. If this bridge does not
exist when ovn-controller starts, it will be created au‐
tomatically with the default configuration suggested in
ovn-architecture(7).
external_ids:ovn-bridge-datapath-type
This configuration is optional. If set, then the datapath
type of the integration bridge will be set to the config‐
ured value. If this option is not set, then ovn-con‐‐
troller will not modify the existing datapath-type of the
integration bridge.
external_ids:ovn-remote
The OVN database that this system should connect to for
its configuration, in one of the same forms documented
above for the ovs-database.
external_ids:ovn-monitor-all
A boolean value that tells if ovn-controller should moni‐
tor all records of tables in ovs-database. If set to
false, it will conditionally monitor the records that is
needed in the current chassis.
It is more efficient to set it to true in use cases where
the chassis would anyway need to monitor most of the
records in OVN Southbound database, which would save the
overhead of conditions processing, especially for server
side. Typically, set it to true for environments that all
workloads need to be reachable from each other.
Default value is false.
external_ids:ovn-remote-probe-interval
The inactivity probe interval of the connection to the
OVN database, in milliseconds. If the value is zero, it
disables the connection keepalive feature.
If the value is nonzero, then it will be forced to a
value of at least 1000 ms.
external_ids:ovn-openflow-probe-interval
The inactivity probe interval of the OpenFlow connection
to the OpenvSwitch integration bridge, in seconds. If the
value is zero, it disables the connection keepalive fea‐
ture.
If the value is nonzero, then it will be forced to a
value of at least 5s.
external_ids:ovn-encap-type
The encapsulation type that a chassis should use to con‐
nect to this node. Multiple encapsulation types may be
specified with a comma-separated list. Each listed encap‐
sulation type will be paired with ovn-encap-ip.
Supported tunnel types for connecting hypervisors and
gateways are geneve, vxlan, and stt.
Due to the limited amount of metadata in vxlan, the capa‐
bilities and performance of connected gateways and hyper‐
visors will be reduced versus other tunnel formats.
external_ids:ovn-encap-ip
The IP address that a chassis should use to connect to
this node using encapsulation types specified by exter‐‐
nal_ids:ovn-encap-type.
external_ids:ovn-bridge-mappings
A list of key-value pairs that map a physical network
name to a local ovs bridge that provides connectivity to
that network. An example value mapping two physical net‐
work names to two ovs bridges would be: phys‐‐
net1:br-eth0,physnet2:br-eth1.
external_ids:ovn-encap-csum
ovn-encap-csum indicates that encapsulation checksums can
be transmitted and received with reasonable performance.
It is a hint to senders transmitting data to this chassis
that they should use checksums to protect OVN metadata.
Set to true to enable or false to disable. Depending on
the capabilities of the network interface card, enabling
encapsulation checksum may incur performance loss. In
such cases, encapsulation checksums can be disabled.
external_ids:ovn-encap-tos
ovn-encap-tos indicates the value to be applied to OVN
tunnel interface’s option:tos as specified in the
Open_vSwitch database Interface table. Please refer to
Open VSwitch Manual for details.
external_ids:ovn-cms-options
A list of options that will be consumed by the CMS Plugin
and which specific to this particular chassis. An example
would be: cms_option1,cms_option2:foo.
external_ids:ovn-transport-zones
The transport zone(s) that this chassis belongs to.
Transport zones is a way to group different chassis so
that tunnels are only formed between members of the same
group(s). Multiple transport zones may be specified with
a comma-separated list. For example: tz1,tz2,tz3.
If not set, the Chassis will be considered part of a de‐
fault transport zone.
external_ids:ovn-chassis-mac-mappings
A list of key-value pairs that map a chassis specific mac
to a physical network name. An example value mapping two
chassis macs to two physical network names would be:
physnet1:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff,physnet2:a1:b2:c3:d4:e5:f6.
These are the macs that ovn-controller will replace a
router port mac with, if packet is going from a distrib‐
uted router port on vlan type logical switch.
external_ids:ovn-is-interconn
The boolean flag indicates if the chassis is used as an
interconnection gateway.
external_ids:ovn-match-northd-version
The boolean flag indicates if ovn-controller needs to
check ovn-northd version. If this flag is set to true and
the ovn-northd’’s version (reported in the Southbound
database) doesn’t match with the ovn-controller’’s inter‐
nal version, then it will stop processing the southbound
and local Open vSwitch database changes. The default
value is considered false if this option is not defined.
external_ids:ovn-ofctrl-wait-before-clear
The time, in milliseconds, to wait before clearing flows
in OVS after OpenFlow connection/reconnection during
ovn-controller initialization. The purpose of this wait
is to give time for ovn-controller to compute the new
flows before clearing existing ones, to avoid data plane
down time during ovn-controller restart/upgrade at large
scale environments where recomputing the flows takes more
than a few seconds or even longer. It is difficult for
ovn-controller to determine when the new flows computing
is completed, because of the dynamics in the cloud envi‐
ronments, which is why this configuration is provided for
users to adjust based on the scale of the environment. By
default, it is 0, which means clearing existing flows
without waiting. Not setting the value, or setting it too
small, may result in data plane down time during up‐
grade/restart, while setting it too big may result in un‐
necessary extra control plane latency of applying new
changes of CMS during upgrade/restart. In most cases, a
slightly bigger value is not harmful, because the extra
control plane latency happens only once during the Open‐
Flow connection. To get a reasonable range of the value
setting, it is recommended to run the below commands on a
node in the target environment and then set this configu‐
ration to twice the value of Maximum shown in the output
of the second command.
• ovn-appctl -t ovn-controller inc-engine/recompute
• ovn-appctl -t ovn-controller stopwatch/show
flow-generation
external_ids:ovn-enable-lflow-cache
The boolean flag indicates if ovn-controller should en‐
able/disable the logical flow in-memory cache it uses
when processing Southbound database logical flow changes.
By default caching is enabled.
external_ids:ovn-limit-lflow-cache
When used, this configuration value determines the maxi‐
mum number of logical flow cache entries ovn-controller
may create when the logical flow cache is enabled. By de‐
fault the size of the cache is unlimited.
external_ids:ovn-memlimit-lflow-cache-kb
When used, this configuration value determines the maxi‐
mum size of the logical flow cache (in KB) ovn-controller
may create when the logical flow cache is enabled. By de‐
fault the size of the cache is unlimited.
external_ids:ovn-trim-limit-lflow-cache
When used, this configuration value sets the minimum num‐
ber of entries in the logical flow cache starting with
which automatic memory trimming is performed. By default
this is set to 10000 entries.
external_ids:ovn-trim-wmark-perc-lflow-cache
When used, this configuration value sets the percentage
from the high watermark number of entries in the logical
flow cache under which automatic memory trimming is per‐
formed. E.g., if the trim watermark percentage is set to
50%, automatic memory trimming happens only when the num‐
ber of entries in the logical flow cache gets reduced to
less than half of the last measured high watermark. By
default this is set to 50.
external_ids:ovn-trim-timeout-ms
When used, this configuration value specifies the time,
in milliseconds, since the last logical flow cache opera‐
tion after which ovn-controller performs memory trimming
regardless of how many entries there are in the cache. By
default this is set to 30000 (30 seconds).
external_ids:ovn-set-local-ip
The boolean flag indicates if ovn-controller when create
tunnel ports should set local_ip parameter. Can be hepl‐
ful to pin source outer IP for the tunnel when multiple
interfaces are used on the host for overlay traffic.
external_ids:garp-max-timeout-sec
When used, this configuration value specifies the maximum
timeout (in seconds) between two consecutive GARP packets
sent by ovn-controller. ovn-controller by default sends
just 4 GARP packets with an exponential backoff timeout.
Setting external_ids:garp-max-timeout-sec allows to cap
for the exponential backoff used by ovn-controller to
send GARPs packets.
ovn-controller reads the following values from the Open_vSwitch data‐
base of the local OVS instance:
datapath-type from Bridge table
This value is read from local OVS integration bridge row
of Bridge table and populated in other_config:datapath-
type of the Chassis table in the OVN_Southbound database.
iface-types from Open_vSwitch table
This value is populated in external_ids:iface-types of
the Chassis table in the OVN_Southbound database.
private_key, certificate, ca_cert, and bootstrap_ca_cert from
SSL table
These values provide the SSL configuration used for con‐
necting to the OVN southbound database server when an SSL
connection type is configured via external_ids:ovn-re‐‐
mote. Note that this SSL configuration can also be pro‐
vided via command-line options, the configuration in the
database takes precedence if both are present.
OPEN VSWITCH DATABASE USAGE
ovn-controller uses a number of external_ids keys in the Open vSwitch
database to keep track of ports and interfaces. For proper operation,
users should not change or clear these keys:
external_ids:ovn-chassis-id in the Port table
The presence of this key identifies a tunnel port within
the integration bridge as one created by ovn-controller
to reach a remote chassis. Its value is the chassis ID of
the remote chassis.
external_ids:ct-zone-* in the Bridge table
Logical ports and gateway routers are assigned a connec‐
tion tracking zone by ovn-controller for stateful ser‐
vices. To keep state across restarts of ovn-controller,
these keys are stored in the integration bridge’s Bridge
table. The name contains a prefix of ct-zone- followed by
the name of the logical port or gateway router’s zone
key. The value for this key identifies the zone used for
this port.
external_ids:ovn-localnet-port in the Port table
The presence of this key identifies a patch port as one
created by ovn-controller to connect the integration
bridge and another bridge to implement a localnet logical
port. Its value is the name of the logical port with type
set to localnet that the port implements. See exter‐‐
nal_ids:ovn-bridge-mappings, above, for more information.
Each localnet logical port is implemented as a pair of
patch ports, one in the integration bridge, one in a dif‐
ferent bridge, with the same external_ids:ovn-local‐‐
net-port value.
external_ids:ovn-l2gateway-port in the Port table
The presence of this key identifies a patch port as one
created by ovn-controller to connect the integration
bridge and another bridge to implement a l2gateway logi‐
cal port. Its value is the name of the logical port with
type set to l2gateway that the port implements. See ex‐‐
ternal_ids:ovn-bridge-mappings, above, for more informa‐
tion.
Each l2gateway logical port is implemented as a pair of
patch ports, one in the integration bridge, one in a dif‐
ferent bridge, with the same external_ids:ovn-l2gate‐‐
way-port value.
external-ids:ovn-l3gateway-port in the Port table
This key identifies a patch port as one created by
ovn-controller to implement a l3gateway logical port. Its
value is the name of the logical port with type set to
l3gateway. This patch port is similar to the OVN logical
patch port, except that l3gateway port can only be bound
to a paticular chassis.
external-ids:ovn-logical-patch-port in the Port table
This key identifies a patch port as one created by
ovn-controller to implement an OVN logical patch port
within the integration bridge. Its value is the name of
the OVN logical patch port that it implements.
external-ids:ovn-startup-ts in the Bridge table
This key represents the timestamp (in milliseconds) at
which ovn-controller process was started.
external-ids:ovn-nb-cfg in the Bridge table
This key represents the last known OVN_South‐‐
bound.SB_Global.nb_cfg value for which all flows have
been successfully installed in OVS.
external-ids:ovn-nb-cfg-ts in the Bridge table
This key represents the timestamp (in milliseconds) of
the last known OVN_Southbound.SB_Global.nb_cfg value for
which all flows have been successfully installed in OVS.
external_ids:ovn-installed and external_ids:ovn-installed-ts in
the Interface table
This key is set after all openflow operations correspond‐
ing to the OVS interface have been processed by ovs-
vswitchd. At the same time a timestamp, in milliseconds
since the epoch, is stored in external_ids:ovn-in‐‐
stalled-ts.
OVN SOUTHBOUND DATABASE USAGE
ovn-controller reads from much of the OVN_Southbound database to guide
its operation. ovn-controller also writes to the following tables:
Chassis
Upon startup, ovn-controller creates a row in this table
to represent its own chassis. Upon graceful termination,
e.g. with ovs-appctl -t ovn-controller exit (but not
SIGTERM), ovn-controller removes its row.
Encap Upon startup, ovn-controller creates a row or rows in
this table that represent the tunnel encapsulations by
which its chassis can be reached, and points its Chassis
row to them. Upon graceful termination, ovn-controller
removes these rows.
Port_Binding
At runtime, ovn-controller sets the chassis columns of
ports that are resident on its chassis to point to its
Chassis row, and, conversely, clears the chassis column
of ports that point to its Chassis row but are no longer
resident on its chassis. The chassis column has a weak
reference type, so when ovn-controller gracefully exits
and removes its Chassis row, the database server automat‐
ically clears any remaining references to that row.
MAC_Binding
At runtime, ovn-controller updates the MAC_Binding table
as instructed by put_arp and put_nd logical actions.
These changes persist beyond the lifetime of ovn-con‐‐
troller.
RUNTIME MANAGEMENT COMMANDS
ovs-appctl can send commands to a running ovn-controller process. The
currently supported commands are described below.
exit Causes ovn-controller to gracefully terminate.
ct-zone-list
Lists each local logical port and its connection tracking
zone.
meter-table-list
Lists each meter table entry and its local meter id.
group-table-list
Lists each group table entry and its local group id.
inject-pkt microflow
Injects microflow into the connected Open vSwitch in‐
stance. microflow must contain an ingress logical port
(inport argument) that is present on the Open vSwitch in‐
stance.
The microflow argument describes the packet whose for‐
warding is to be simulated, in the syntax of an OVN logi‐
cal expression, as described in ovn-sb(5), to express
constraints. The parser understands prerequisites; for
example, if the expression refers to ip4.src, there is no
need to explicitly state ip4 or eth.type == 0x800.
connection-status
Show OVN SBDB connection status for the chassis.
recompute
Trigger a full compute iteration in ovn-controller based
on the contents of the Southbound database and local OVS
database.
This command is intended to use only in the event of a
bug in the incremental processing engine in ovn-con‐‐
troller to avoid inconsistent states. It should therefore
be used with care as full recomputes are cpu intensive.
sb-cluster-state-reset
Reset southbound database cluster status when databases
are destroyed and rebuilt.
If all databases in a clustered southbound database are
removed from disk, then the stored index of all databases
will be reset to zero. This will cause ovn-controller to
be unable to read or write to the southbound database,
because it will always detect the data as stale. In such
a case, run this command so that ovn-controller will re‐
set its local index so that it can interact with the
southbound database again.
debug/delay-nb-cfg-report seconds
This command is used to delay ovn-controller updating the
nb_cfg back to OVN_Southbound database. This is useful
when ovn-nbctl --wait=hv is used to measure end-to-end
latency in a large scale environment. See ovn-nbctl(8)
for more details.
lflow-cache/flush
Flushes the ovn-controller logical flow cache.
lflow-cache/show-stats
Displays logical flow cache statistics: enabled/disabled,
per cache type entry counts.
inc-engine/show-stats
Display ovn-controller engine counters. For each engine
node the following counters have been added:
• recompute
• compute
• abort
inc-engine/clear-stats
Reset ovn-controller engine counters.
