17:09:03 melwitt okay
17:09:03 TheJulia what jroll said :)
17:09:16 jroll TheJulia: that only comes from spawn(), right?
17:09:33 jroll maybe not :/
17:09:56 efried mriedem (or anyone): Are you aware of an recent changes in nova or elsewhere that would make instance.uuid stop responding to isinstance(str)?
17:10:17 melwitt yeah, I guess duh, the methods that were added have a cleanup with it already too https://review.openstack.org/#/c/468353/19/nova/virt/driver.py
17:10:20 TheJulia jroll: I just spotted https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/manager.py#L2214
17:11:11 mriedem efried: nope
17:11:16 efried k
17:11:17 jroll efried: uuid.uuid4() or whatever will yield some object rather than a string, we tend to use uuidutils.generate<tab>, could be it
17:11:30 jroll TheJulia: ah, yeah
17:11:49 dansmith jroll: instance.uuid will coerce it to a string thouigh
17:11:57 jroll ah ok
17:12:17 efried yeah, see, that's what seems not to be happening anymore in a certain code path for us.
17:15:38 openstackgerrit melanie witt proposed openstack/nova stable/queens: DNM: testing the ceph job https://review.openstack.org/563175
17:16:02 gibi Kevin_Zheng: I have an approved bp that could be interesting for you if you have time: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/add-full-traceback-to-error-notifications
17:17:11 gibi Kevin_Zheng: it is totally OK if you don't have time either, I just wanted advertise the opportunity
17:20:01 jroll melwitt: dansmith: jaypipes: thanks for the help, btw :)
17:20:21 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Add periodic task to clean expired console tokens https://review.openstack.org/325381
17:20:40 jaypipes jroll: I feel like I did nothing but add confusion to the situation, honestly.
17:21:04 jroll jaypipes: thanks for trying to help? :P
17:21:05 dansmith jroll: jaypipes needs a hug
17:21:12 jroll or a pug
17:21:20 melwitt pug hug
17:21:26 dansmith or a pug hug
17:22:23 TheJulia Pug hugs sound far better than cat cuddles... and walking away bleeding
17:24:23 jroll jaypipes: do aussies also cheer you up? https://i.imgur.com/Yswxtpy.jpg
17:24:32 melwitt heh. not our cat. we think he might be part ragdoll
17:24:34 dansmith jroll: I think he only likes ugly dogs
17:24:42 jroll ha, fair
17:25:05 jaypipes jroll: ++ aussie's are a good cheerup.
17:25:11 jroll :)
17:25:18 melwitt jroll: that's adorbz
17:25:26 dansmith jaypipes: but. but.. their eyeballs are fully contained within their heads...
17:25:53 jroll melwitt: thanks, make sure you pass it along to james :)
17:25:59 TheJulia It is side conversations like ^^^ why I love this community
17:26:27 melwitt jroll: forwarding it now
17:27:03 jaypipes dansmith: details, details...
17:27:20 jaypipes dansmith: they are furry, fluffy and perfect.
17:27:31 jaypipes dansmith: even if they are missing googly eyes.
17:27:45 jaypipes heh
17:32:51 TheJulia jroll: Any thoughts on continuing your poc forward or just rewrite mine?
17:33:23 jroll TheJulia: I could do it, or you could take it over, or you could rewrite yours, whatever you'd like to do :)
17:34:56 TheJulia I've got it on the brain so I'll pickup yours and continue it along
17:36:23 jroll awesome, thanks! happy to review if needed
17:36:43 jroll TheJulia: fyi I probably picked up your bug from patchset 1 where you needed the patch wrapped in []
17:37:27 TheJulia my brain is currently trying to think of any other ways we could be leaking vifs and thus blocking future deploys outside of tearing down an instance and I'm not thinking of any
17:37:39 openstackgerrit Jay Pipes proposed openstack/os-traits master: Add compute capabilities traits https://review.openstack.org/546713
17:37:58 TheJulia jroll: easy fix :)
17:38:11 jaypipes artom_, gibi, efried: addressed the rewording in https://review.openstack.org/#/c/546713/.
17:38:14 melwitt mriedem: why do you think we can't drop the API code until T? I thought once all computes are upgraded to rocky, then things are guaranteed to all be using the database backend, so removal would be in Stein? https://review.openstack.org/#/c/325414/31/nova/compute/api.py@3613
17:38:25 jroll TheJulia: yep, just a heads up so you don't wait an hour for CI to find it :)
17:39:14 gibi jaypipes: thanks, +2
17:39:31 mriedem melwitt: i might have been overthinking it
17:40:18 melwitt k, just trying to make sure there's not something I'm missing
17:40:33 mriedem replied to clarify
17:41:16 melwitt cool thanks
17:43:32 sean-k-mooney melwitt: sorry i was in meeting for the last 4 hours. did ye resolve the issue ye were having?
17:44:11 melwitt sean-k-mooney: yeah, I think so. we were talking about, when is a port guaranteed to have an IP allocated to it? maybe never, but it sounded like after host binding it has to?
17:45:46 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Extract generate_hostid method into utils.py https://review.openstack.org/555282
17:45:52 sean-k-mooney melwitt: right so with multi segment, l3 routed networks the allocation of the ip happens only when the port is bound to a specific host. for the general case the port will get an ip when it is created but you can have ports that only have mac adresses
17:46:36 melwitt sean-k-mooney: gotcha. thanks
17:46:37 sean-k-mooney melwitt: so after you do port binding it should have an ip if it is connected to a neutron network that has a subnet
17:47:28 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Network bandwidth resource provider https://review.openstack.org/502306
17:49:26 melwitt sean-k-mooney: okay, so it's not ever necessarily guaranteed (would a neutron network ever not have a subnet?). we were looking at some code in the ironic driver where they need to get the IP in order to hand it to the volume connector (some volume backends require the IP before attaching). and we were wondering, at what point could one reliably query for the IP
17:50:42 sean-k-mooney melwitt: neutron allows your to have interfaces with no ips. nova used to require one for a neutron port to be used with an vm/instance but that requrement was removed.
17:51:03 sean-k-mooney melwitt: the reason it was removed was to cater for non ip networking e.g. infinaband over ethernet
17:51:07 melwitt I see
17:52:27 sean-k-mooney melwitt: it sound like in the ironic case there is a hard requirement for an ip presuable you are using it to configre iscsi targest for the baremtal not or something like that?
17:53:57 melwitt sean-k-mooney: yeah must be a hard requirement. it's already doing it like this https://review.openstack.org/#/c/468353/19/nova/virt/ironic/driver.py but yeah need the IP to set in the volume connector
17:55:07 sean-k-mooney in general l2 only connectivity is not common in neutron so this is an extream edgecase.
17:55:33 melwitt and the problem was that they have to do their equivalent of "plug_vifs" first in order to get the IP and that's happening outside their node reserve lock and there are races happening. so at first we were talking about "can we get the IP before plugging the vif" but it ended up not mattering and the solution needs to be to reserve the node first before doing anything with the networking
17:58:28 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Address nits in I00d29e9fd80e6b8f7ba3bbd8e82dde9d4cb1522f https://review.openstack.org/561493
18:00:36 sean-k-mooney from a ironic perspective i think its prefectly resonable to scope the cinder volume support to jsut instance with ips at a first pass. volumes attached over infinaband is something in the storage space where we might not have ips but that is less common.
18:01:35 melwitt yeah, that's what they've done
18:05:10 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova stable/ocata: Add regression test for persisted RequestSpec.retry from failed resize https://review.openstack.org/560162
18:05:17 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova stable/ocata: Don't persist RequestSpec.retry https://review.openstack.org/560167
18:05:23 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova stable/ocata: only increment disk address unit for scsi devices https://review.openstack.org/561613
18:09:20 efried cdent: yt?
18:09:30 cdent efried: hi, yup
18:09:56 efried cdent: Good evening to you. Do you know of any reason Instance.uuid would or would not respond to isinstance(str) ?
18:11:09 cdent I read you talking about that a bit earlier, but didn't chase it. Is it showing up in a particular piece of code that I can poke at? Have you been able to find out what type it is when that happens? Or is it a racey thing that you've got no easy replication for?
18:13:30 sean-k-mooney efried: cdent jaypipes-lunch i need to run very soon but was a decision reached on the mailing list of how to proceed with resouce provider groups?
18:14:11 efried sean-k-mooney: You mean whether numbered groups are separate by default or unrestricted?
18:14:25 cdent sean-k-mooney: I think you mean this https://review.openstack.org/#/c/562687/
18:14:28 sean-k-mooney efried: yes. last i read was matt suggesting that its explcit
18:14:59 efried sean-k-mooney: Yup, what cdent said - that guy has (all the links to) all the info you need.
18:15:30 efried cdent: This is what I'm chasing down: http://184.172.12.213/58/557958/10/check/nova-out-of-tree-pvm/c1d7e99/logs/n-cpu.txt.gz?#_Apr_20_08_51_16_452651
18:15:38 sean-k-mooney cdent: thanks im out of office tomrow but ill print out the current version and review tomrow.
18:15:41 cdent thanks efried
18:15:55 sean-k-mooney efried: im glad ye found a path forward
18:15:56 cdent woah, colors finally merged
18:16:30 sean-k-mooney cdent: colors?
18:16:30 efried cdent: No, I think that's just because it's in our CI env and I have that patched in there (cause that's where I was testing it)
18:17:07 efried cdent: But you should definitely tell everybody how much you like it in https://review.openstack.org/524744 so they might merge it.
18:17:33 cdent oh, sorry, didn't recognize that was your ci efried
18:17:49 openstack Launchpad bug 1765748 in OpenStack Global Requirements "webob-1.8.1 breaks projects" [High,In progress] - Assigned to Matthew Thode (prometheanfire)
18:17:49 melwitt cdent: I had wanted to bring this bug to your attention, in case you might have some idea why the test_wsgi stuff would fail with webob 1.8.1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1765748
18:18:23 efried cdent: Anyway, the deal here is that powervm has a utility method that accepts either an integer ID or a UUID. It detects which one it is and then behaves accordingly. The code that does that hasn't changed in yeeears.
18:18:47 efried The code path that calls it is when we're disconnecting a disk, which (I think) also hasn't changed in yeeeears.
