15:00:28 openstack The meeting name has been set to 'openstack_cyborg'
15:00:51 zhipeng meetbot still on vacation ?
15:01:11 Li_Liu Happy New Year guys!
15:01:17 Yumeng__ Hi
15:01:23 jkilpatr happy new year

15:03:33 jkilpatr meetbot seemed to have worked the first time?
15:03:49 zhipeng ah looks like my network's problem
15:04:27 zhipeng who do we have here?
15:04:32 zhipeng #topic Roll Call

15:04:49 jkilpatr #info Justin
15:05:30 mpaolino #info Michele
15:06:51 zhipeng and also #info liliu and yumeng
15:07:07 zhipeng #topic Queens Release Prep
15:07:26 zhipeng folks entering Jan we are officially in the mode for release prep
15:07:28 vipparthy here is Vipparthy
15:07:42 zhipeng so we need to accelerate our progress
15:08:08 zhipeng let's run through the open patches, see what is still missing and what could be closed
15:08:18 zhipeng #link https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/cyborg
15:08:34 zhipeng #info code freeze is Feb 5
15:08:57 zhipeng #info 1. Internal API spec
15:09:01 zhipeng #link https://review.openstack.org/525598
15:09:12 zhipeng jkilpatr any update on this one ?
15:09:50 jkilpatr zhipeng, waiting on feedback, I'm pretty happy with it.
15:10:11 zhipeng i think we should keep it open as we flash out the api/conductor/agent extension update ?
15:10:29 jkilpatr sounds good to me, talk about what you want in the review.
15:11:15 zhipeng no problem, I think we should go back to the spec after we land zhuli's API patch
15:11:36 zhipeng ok next up
15:11:56 zhipeng #info 2. CRUD api extension
15:12:07 zhipeng #link https://review.openstack.org/527396
15:13:03 Li_Liu #info Li
15:13:22 zhipeng TL; DR for this patch is that
15:13:52 zhipeng for Queens we will need a working API/DB that implements the resource provider data model
15:14:06 zhipeng this patch is the attempt to achieve that
15:14:16 jkilpatr I'll review today
15:14:27 crushil zhipeng, The generic driver depends on this patch. Once this patch merges, I can add the implementation for the CRUD to the generic driver too
15:14:38 crushil And it doesn't have unit tests yet
15:14:45 zhipeng so I think as I mentioned before, the implementation should align with jkilpatr's internal API spec
15:15:15 zhipeng crushil ya I saw your comment
15:15:36 zhipeng I will work with zhuli and let's land this patch this week
15:15:55 crushil I have already added create functionality to the generic driver
15:16:00 jkilpatr I need to look at my own commit again, it's been a while.
15:16:09 zhipeng i know :P
15:16:34 zhipeng okey without further a due
15:16:42 zhipeng #info 3. generic driver
15:16:47 zhipeng #link https://review.openstack.org/525057
15:16:56 zhipeng crushil take away
15:17:51 crushil So, as I already mentioned this patch depends on https://review.openstack.org/527396 and once that patch merges, I can add functionality for the other use cases for Cyborg.
15:19:20 zhipeng we also need unit test for this one right ? I mean later
15:19:29 crushil yup
15:20:27 zhipeng how generic should we expect for the driver when we release it ? Can we have very simple demo on NVIDIA GPU ?
15:21:07 crushil That's the goal
15:21:23 crushil We can do a simple POC at the OS summit
15:21:43 zhipeng cool
15:22:06 zhipeng ok now let's move on two the relative two new specs
15:22:19 zhipeng #info 4. FPGA data modeling spec
15:22:29 vipparthy can you please plan for Demo online, so we can join and view functionality , Thank you
15:22:29 zhipeng #link https://review.openstack.org/526559
15:22:50 zhipeng this is actually the spec that zhuli is implementing in his patch
15:23:12 zhipeng vipparthy we could discuss that at Dublin PTG for sure
15:23:27 zhipeng Li Liu you there ?
15:23:33 Li_Liu yup
15:23:36 vipparthy Thank you Zhipeng
15:23:37 zhipeng Li_Liu
15:24:02 zhipeng could you briefly introduce the spec ?
15:24:07 Li_Liu sure
15:24:13 zhipeng so that everyone gets up to speed
15:25:57 Li_Liu Basically, the spec introduces a way to describe hierarchy accelerator structure
15:26:08 Li_Liu One of the most typical usage is FPGA
15:26:28 Li_Liu We plan to add a new table called Deployables
15:27:16 Li_Liu It represent any accelerators that can be discovered/deployed
15:27:54 Li_Liu The key is it has 2 pointers, parent_id and root_ir
15:28:02 Li_Liu root_id*
15:28:27 Li_Liu parent_id points to the parent Deployable row
15:28:40 Li_Liu root_id points to the root Deployable row
15:29:16 Li_Liu This way, we can form nested tree structures
15:29:28 Li_Liu For instance, in the case of FPGA
15:30:02 Li_Liu Each FPGA can have multiple Physical Functions
15:30:29 Li_Liu Each Physical Functions can have multiple Virtual Functions
15:32:13 Li_Liu Also, we have a Attribute table which stores k-v pairs referencing back to the Deployables table
15:32:45 zhipeng is this aligned with the nested resource provider spec ?
15:32:50 Li_Liu this way, we can track arbitrary type of attributes for generic types
15:32:55 zhipeng (which expected to be done in Queens)
15:33:20 Li_Liu It does, actually
15:33:40 zhipeng cool
15:34:00 zhipeng thx for the intro, everyone plz help review the spec
15:34:08 Li_Liu the Deployable is counterpart to resource providers in NOVA
15:34:13 zhipeng zhuli will also reflect the changes in the spec on the fly
15:34:19 Li_Liu Thanks a lot guys
15:35:30 zhipeng moving on to the next
15:35:43 zhipeng #info 5. Intel's FPGA device driver
