Re: [PATCH net 2/2] selftests: add openvswitch selftest suite

Previous commit resolves a WARN splat that can be difficult to reproduce, but with the ovs-dpctl.py utility, it can be trivial. Introduce a test case which creates a DP, and then downgrades the feature set. This will include a utility 'ovs-dpctl.py' that can be extended to do additional work.

Hey, Aaron and Kevin. Selftests sounds like a very important and long overdue thing to add. Thanks for working on this!

I have some worries about the libnl3 library though. It doesn't seem to be maintained well. It it maintained by a single person, it it was at least 3 different single persons over the last 7 years via forks. It didn't get any significant development done since 2015 as well and no commits at all for a last 1.5 years. It is not packaged by any major distributions. I'm talking about https://github.com/coolshou/libnl3 . Please, correct me if that is not the right one. There are too many libraies with the name libnl out there... That is also not a great sign.

The C library libnl (https://github.com/thom311/libnl) seems to be well maintained in general. It has experimental python bindings which are not really supported much. Python bindings received only 2 actual code-changing commits in the last 7 years. Both of them are just python 2/3 compatibility changes. Maybe that is not that big of a deal since it's not really a real python library, but a wrapper on top of a main C library. However, I didn't find these python bindings to be packaged in distributions. And they seem to be not available in pip as well. So, building them is kind of a pain.

There is another option which is pyroute2. It positions itself primarily as a netlink library and it does include an pyroute2.netlink module indeed: https://github.com/svinota/pyroute2/tree/master/pyroute2/netlink See the __init__.py for usage examples.

This one looks to me like the most trustworthy. It is actively used by everyone in the python networking world, e.g. by OpenStack. And it is actively developed and maintained unlike other netlink-related python projects. It is also packaged in most of the main distributions, so it's easy to install and use. Many people already have it installed for other purposes.

TBH, I didn't compare the functionality, but I'd expect that most of the things we need are implemented.

What do you think?

On the other note, I'm not a real python developer, but the code looks more like a C than a python even for me. Firstly, I'd say that it would be great to maintain some coding style, e.g. by checking with flake8 and/or black. See some issues/suggestions provided by these tools below.

Secondly, we shouldd at least use argparse for argument parsing. It's part of the standard library since python 3.2, so doens't require any special dependencies to be installed.

Some parts of the code can probably be re-written to be more "pythonic" as well, but I won't dive into that for now. I didn't review the code deep enough for that.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.
