[Openstack] tapXXX already exists on bridge brqXXX with linuxbridge ml2 plugin

Hi everyone,

I'm using ML2 plugin with linuxbridges. My requirement is to use
"flat" networks with public IPs (1.2.3.248/29) in the subnet.
"physical_interface_mappings" in ML2:linuxbridge plugin is as simple
as ['physnet1:eth0.4035']. Here, eth0.4035 is a 4035 vlan tagged
interface on CentOS.

When I execute "nova boot", I can see
* instance getting the IP assigned
* Neutron port also gets created.
* The brqXXX and tabXXX interface also gets created.

But, linuxbridge agent on compute node complains about tapXXX already
existing. I'm confused because linuxbridge is the one that created the
interface so how does it not know about the tap device.

Full log can be seen here: http://paste.openstack.org/show/138845/ .
I'll appreciate any kind of guesses and possible solutions.

"nova list" shows the error as: "Build of instance
6e4ddb50-8630-4a4d-b400-477517721de7 aborted: Failed to allocate the
network(s), not rescheduling.".
