| 14:15:56 | Li_Liu | g8t | |
| 14:16:26 | Sundar | https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/neutron-stein-ptg Thu 3:15-4:15 pm | |
| 14:16:40 | Sundar | zhipeng: Yes | |
| 14:16:52 | zhipeng | nice ! | |
| 14:17:26 | Sundar | There is also an Ironic/Neutron session on smart NICs. Not sure how far Cyborg will be involved there. But, since I am involved in that project, I'll be there too | |
| 14:17:29 | zhipeng | but we could align internally on Mon or Tuesday | |
| 14:17:41 | Sundar | Sure | |
| 14:18:18 | Sundar | As always, please give feedback in the etherpad early :) | |
| 14:19:39 | Sundar | We should have another session on broadening Cyborg scope to PCI devices. You might have seen Eric's question on whether we can handle IB for e.g. I think we can, without much architectural effort | |
| 14:19:59 | Li_Liu | Yes, that one | |
| 14:20:04 | Li_Liu | looking forward to it | |
| 14:20:12 | Sundar | The actual implementation, of course, can be left to whoever has the knowledge and resources for that :) | |
| 14:21:06 | Sundar | Also, how will Cyborg handle infrastructure offload? Like OVS offload? | |
| 14:21:27 | Sundar | Perhaps this is Neutron area, or may be Cyborg needs to be involved. One can argue both ways | |
| 14:21:45 | zhipeng | ya offload is another interesting area | |
| 14:21:57 | zhipeng | ovs/dpdk/ebpf offloading | |
| 14:22:23 | zhipeng | so what do we like for Monday morning ? | |
| 14:22:32 | zhipeng | retrospect of course | |
| 14:22:35 | zhipeng | and ? | |
| 14:23:09 | Sundar | Internal discussions -- lke db schemas? | |
| 14:23:38 | Coco_gao | after this, we can summarize what need to change in DB model and OVOs to make it more general. | |
| 14:23:47 | zhipeng | sounds good | |
| 14:24:14 | Sundar | RSD (composable arch) can also be Cyborg-internal to start with | |
| 14:24:26 | Li_Liu | Is Brian from Xilinx coming? | |
| 14:24:34 | zhipeng | i've no idea | |
| 14:25:02 | Li_Liu | I will follow up with him then, also the update on the Xilinx device drivers | |
| 14:25:10 | dolpher | Brian mentioned he could attend, but not confirmed with him | |
| 14:25:21 | wangzhh | We also need to disscuss how to handle different Arch. and system in cyborg. | |
| 14:26:22 | Sundar | wangzhh: can you elaborate? ^ | |
| 14:28:01 | wangzhh | Such as x86, power(different) or libvirt, xen(different hypervisor). | |
| 14:28:47 | wangzhh | different Arch... Sorry. | |
| 14:29:15 | wangzhh | Some operations like attach and detach | |
| 14:29:37 | Coco_gao | I suggest we discuss the "evolution" after "General Accelerator Management", It don't know whether this will have impact on DB. | |
| 14:30:03 | Sundar | wangzhh: Nova folks say that the instane attach and hypervisor-specific but not device-specific) ops should be left to Nova virt (and possibly os-acc but even that is debated) | |
| 14:30:04 | Coco_gao | what wangzhh said just now may also have impact on DB | |
| 14:30:46 | zhipeng | the general mgmt will be a long way to go | |
| 14:31:04 | Sundar | Better to have Disaggregated servers as a separate topic | |
| 14:31:04 | zhipeng | and I want to make sure Eric Fried got time to join :P | |
| 14:31:06 | shaohe_feng__ | #info shaohe_feng_ | |
| 14:31:34 | zhipeng | Sundar maybe under drivers ? | |
| 14:32:09 | Sundar | It will include representation etc. | |
| 14:32:34 | wangzhh | Sundar, It is vendor driver which handle these. | |
| 14:32:37 | Sundar | We can club it in any session :) as long as we know it will be wide-ranging | |
| 14:32:54 | zhipeng | ah alright :) | |
| 14:33:05 | Sundar | RSD is not vendor-specific :) Many OEM vendors support composable arch, | |
| 14:33:36 | Sundar | There is a large RSD+OpenStack effort outside of devices abd Cyborg | |
| 14:33:40 | Sundar | *and | |
| 14:34:13 | Sundar | We need to figure out how Cyborg fits in with Nova and others for that | |
| 14:34:38 | zhipeng | understood | |
| 14:35:04 | shaohe_feng__ | Sundar: does ironic support to compose a RSD node, now? | |
| 14:35:33 | Coco_gao | @jiapei | |
| 14:36:41 | Sundar | The composition is separate from whether it is provisioned as a bare metal server. But I think Ironic + RSD is already on the cards | |
| 14:37:29 | Sundar | There is a RSD openstack client to compose nodes: https://github.com/openstack/python-rsdclient | |
| 14:39:31 | shaohe_feng__ | yes, Do we need to integrate this client to ironic first？ | |
| 14:39:58 | Sundar | Where do we fit infrastructure offload in these sessions? | |
| 14:40:50 | shaohe_feng__ | Sundar: I have submit in another project called mogan to support RSD. REF https://review.openstack.org/#/c/523052/ | |
| 14:41:07 | Sundar | shaohe_feng: The client does not depend on Ironic, AFAIK. It works with RSD infra (Pod manager) to compose the node | |
| 14:41:55 | zhipeng | would be nice to migrate some of the mogan stuff over | |
| 14:43:25 | Sundar | shaohe: The RSD folks know about this effort, right? | |
| 14:43:26 | shaohe_feng__ | yes. but we need a project to support the RSD server | |
| 14:44:23 | Li_Liu | can we leverage Cyborg to support it? | |
| 14:44:30 | shaohe_feng__ | Sundar: I have not followed RSD in openstack for a long time. With discuss with dolpher about the progress. | |
| 14:45:37 | zhipeng | okey moving on | |
| 14:45:48 | zhipeng | plz take a look at the agenda etherpad | |
| 14:46:01 | zhipeng | feel free to propose your topic | |
| 14:46:19 | zhipeng | next topic, team dinner :) | |
| 14:46:32 | zhipeng | Tuesday night works for everyone ? | |
| 14:46:36 | Li_Liu | Shall we assign time slot on the topics? tho I don't think people will follow anyways :) | |
| 14:46:59 | zhipeng | Li_Liu haha we could assign that | |
| 14:47:01 | Sundar | Tuesday night is a conflict with Intel dinner :) | |
| 14:47:10 | zhipeng | Monday night ? | |
| 14:47:37 | dolpher | I'll check if we can have the RSD folk to give a brief introduction on RSD+cyborg plan/design | |
| 14:48:38 | Sundar | Dolpher: I am the one dricing RSD+Cyborg within ntel :) | |
| 14:48:45 | Sundar | *driving | |
| 14:48:59 | Sundar | zhipeng: Mon night is fie by me | |
| 14:49:13 | Sundar | *fine | |
| 14:49:45 | zhipeng | everyone else ? | |
| 14:49:56 | zhipeng | Monday night for team dinner ? | |
| 14:50:19 | dolpher | Sundar: I mean ask Lin(working on RSD) to give a introduction, it's also fine if you volunteer to do that :) | |
| 14:50:23 | Li_Liu | damn.. you guys have fine :( | |
| 14:50:56 | dolpher | I'm fine with Mon night | |
| 14:51:05 | Coco_gao | It's better to have a introduction,~ | |
| 14:51:16 | wangzhh | Zoom dinner with u. Li_Liu | |
| 14:51:28 | Sundar | Sorry to revert back to a previous point briefly: #link https://github.com/openstack/python-rsdclient/blob/master/doc/source/user/User_Guide.pdf The user composes a node first and then enrolls it in Ironic using the ironicclient. The two steps are independent | |
| 14:51:31 | Li_Liu | lol. that sounds fun | |
| 14:51:34 | Sundar | Lin is working with me :) Sure. | |
| 14:52:29 | dolpher | Sundar: I know that :) | |
| 14:53:41 | zhipeng | dolpher wangzhh Coco-cao | |
| 14:53:45 | zhipeng | team dinner | |
| 14:53:52 | zhipeng | is the time ok ? | |
| 14:53:56 | Coco_gao | OK | |
| 14:54:00 | dolpher | ok | |
| 14:54:18 | Sundar | ok | |
| 14:55:27 | zhipeng | Monday it is :) | |
| 14:55:30 | wangzhh | ok | |
| 14:55:54 | zhipeng | we could go to the Irish pub where the first cyborg team dinner happened :P | |
| 14:56:04 | zhipeng | one year ago, with Rushil and Justin | |
| 14:56:44 | Coco_gao | Sounds good. | |
| 14:57:20 | zhipeng | okey then | |
| 14:57:28 | zhipeng | #topic AoB | |
