    Description

      Description of problem:

      [ovn] [ocp 4.10.z] Service `spec.externalTrafficPolicy` does not trigger rules update in ovnkube-node pod handlers on edit, even though it does successfully update the rules if deployed explicitly with that spec value set, or if you delete the handler pods for ovn (forces a refresh).

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      observed in 4.10.32 and 4.10.40, tested on azure platform.

      How reproducible:

      every time

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Deploy a test pod with curlable resource in a test namespace
      
      2. create a service from yaml exposing pod at internal clusterIP (example yaml provided by customer below)
      ~~~ 
      apiVersion: v1
      kind: Service
      metadata:
        labels:
          run: test
        name: test
        annotations:
          service.beta.kubernetes.io/azure-load-balancer-internal: "true"
          service.beta.kubernetes.io/azure-load-balancer-internal-subnet: paas1
      spec:
        allocateLoadBalancerNodePorts: true
        externalTrafficPolicy: Cluster ##MODIFY THIS SPEC VALUE AND OBSERVE FAIL CONDITION
        internalTrafficPolicy: Cluster
        ipFamilies:
        - IPv4
        ipFamilyPolicy: SingleStack
        ports:
        - port: 8000
          protocol: TCP
          targetPort: 8000
        selector:
          run: test
        sessionAffinity: None
        type: LoadBalancer
      ~~~
      
      3. curl against service succeeds
      4. edit service to change `spec.externalTrafficPolicy: local`
      5. observe externalIP does not change, but healthz port updates
      6. curl against same externalIP:port time out indefinitely, no response.
      
      //workaround: 
      
      delete service and redeploy with spec line set already to `local`, or delete ovnkube-node pod serving pod(s) to force refresh the local ruleset and allow traffic (curls subsequently will succeed).

      Actual results:

      spec change appears to update properly in the database but does not send a notification to update the ovnkube-node pod handlers (or similar) to allow traffic through once the externalTrafficPolicy spec value is changed.

      Expected results:

      spec change to service yaml should be immediately updated in DB AND update ovnkube-node handlers for same.
