ML2 mechanism driver for Huawei EVS

Registered by Yuxin Zhuang

EVS is a switching software in huawei's virtualization/cloud product. It can provide switching function with different mechanisms, e.g. software virtual switch, passthru. This blueprint is to add an ML2 mechanism driver to support EVS.

In Huawei's hypervisor product, each computing node has agents running on it, listening RPC. These agents will be in charge of EVS config on the node. This BP aims to implement an ML2 mech driver for it.

21-Feb (markmcclain): This seems like a duplicate of https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/huawei-ml2-mechanism-driver. Unless this is separate work, the blueprint will be removed when Juno opens.
24-Feb (zhuangyuxin): Mark, thanks for the reminder. This is different than the BP you mentioned. Would you please leave it open? If we decide this BP is not needed, I'll remove it later.
