#openstack-cyborg - 2026-03-19
19:46:56 sean-k-mooney :)
19:47:12 sean-k-mooney https://www.openstack.org/openstack-for-ai-white-paper implies cyborg is more useful today then it really is
19:47:28 sean-k-mooney but that does nto mean it cant evovle to have a larger role in the future
19:47:35 fungi i'm still enough of an engineer that i don't like to lie about things, but i feel like there are exciting things to say while sticking to the facts
19:48:22 fungi and sometimes we just need to make seemingly-unexciting things exciting
19:48:46 fungi like... driver documentation
19:49:08 fungi (from my perspective, it's great when anyone cares about documentation at all, so that's a clear win)
19:50:14 sean-k-mooney ya specs are grate but oen of the thing is want to improve in general is the intree devleoper docs and user/admin ones too to capture more of the why and how it wors type content
19:50:33 sean-k-mooney the user/admin ones need to be more how you use it focused
19:51:09 sean-k-mooney but i think improving the contributor docs is also important so that future contibutor undersand how and imporantly why thigns work
19:51:13 sean-k-mooney the way they work
19:51:42 fungi that would all be great for project updates, absolutely
19:51:55 sean-k-mooney i partly considered if moving the cyborg-spec into the docs like placement did would be good long term but that was too low a priority to change right away
19:52:24 fungi from a "what's in 2026.1/gazpacho?" angle, there's less to cover for cyborg at the moment, hence gravitating toward the driver config guide
19:53:00 sean-k-mooney ya the main things that change were oslo.db comatablity, eventlet removal and a cople of bug fixes
19:53:14 fungi of the highlights, the only other maybe user-facing one was placement integration
19:53:24 sean-k-mooney partly because the focus was "get somethign releaseable" rather then adding end user value via new features ectra
19:53:44 fungi but that's a bit harder to get marketing people to turn into a good press blurb
19:53:48 sean-k-mooney the placement fix was more an operator highlight
19:54:24 fungi sounds like there may be some great nuggets to include in 2026.2/hibiscus press though
19:54:38 sean-k-mooney but yes there isnt a lot to highlith for actull end users this cycle
19:55:08 sean-k-mooney hopefully
19:55:53 fungi yeah, you and i both know that's the most important thing, it's just sadly not the sort of thing news articles are likely to focus on
20:00:24 sean-k-mooney ya so as you said along as what they include is correct i think haveing a minimal refence to cybrog is fine. i know there is a tempation to include it because of the ai connection but i think most of that will come in 2026.2, 2027.1 or later releases as we properly get going again
20:03:39 sean-k-mooney the only ai usecase not supproted driectly in nova form https://www.openstack.org/openstack-for-ai-white-paper is fpga provisiong. that is the only thing that cybrog really brings to the tabel today.
20:04:58 sean-k-mooney we are currently trying to source some hardware for a potical third party ci to test some gpu usecase going forward

14:03:34 bogdando[m] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cyborg-specs/+/982276 --specs-repo openstack/cyborg-specs --cross-ref https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/967515'
14:03:34 bogdando[m] jgilaber: hi, I provided comments to the cyborg mdevs driver support spec based on cross-project issues discovered by an AI tool. I've made my best to post-process them before commenting, but there are still could be gaps in my expertise for both projects. FTR I used my fork of this tool https://github.com/melwitt/nova-spec-summarizer, and the command 'python nova_spec_summarizer.py -v --url
14:05:25 jgilaber thanks for the feedback bogdando[m]! I definitely have gaps, particularly in the nova side. Next week I'll be on PTO, but I'll go through both specs once I'm back and update them
#openstack-cyborg - 2026-03-30
13:10:28 chandankumar sean-k-mooney: Hello, https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cyborg/+/981754/1#message-3ee08cf51f9710d8e2c8000e48b6e2f6047e36f7 on 2025.2 tox pep8 job is failing while checking for cherry picks here. It worked in 2026.1 but it fails in 2025.2 and 2025.1
13:11:34 sean-k-mooney that is because i have not cherry picked the cherry pick helper script to those yet
13:11:58 sean-k-mooney https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cyborg/+/982300 need to be merged first then i need to pull it to 2025.2 adn 2025.1 before that will pass
13:12:15 sean-k-mooney sorry wrong link
13:12:44 sean-k-mooney https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cyborg/+/981529
13:13:17 sean-k-mooney https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cyborg/+/981754 and https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cyborg/+/977838 shoudl fix it but i need to update the latter
13:15:07 chandankumar sorry tox -e pep8 failing on cherry-pick script itself i.e. 981754: Fix check-cherry-picks.sh for numeric stable branches | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cyborg/+/981754
13:15:48 sean-k-mooney ill need ot look into it unless you have time but any fix needs to be made on master first
13:16:19 sean-k-mooney i saw the comment that perhaps i need to defautl to HEAD or and replied that a better fix woudl be to remove the ""
13:16:33 chandankumar let me try with removing ""
13:16:53 sean-k-mooney without it when the viarble is not defiend hte partmer just wont be passed to the command
13:16:56 sean-k-mooney so that should work
13:17:22 sean-k-mooney we could default to HEAD but that might break in other ways
13:18:01 sean-k-mooney this script came form nova and there we do not defualt to HEAD but we also do not quote https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/tools/check-cherry-picks.sh
13:18:26 sean-k-mooney so i think that is hte regression
13:20:09 sean-k-mooney if you fix it on master we cna backport that quickly to the branches where its already merged and update the unmerged ones to squash in your fix
