#openstack-nova - 2018-05-16
12:33:09 efried alex_xu: I started this series, which bhagyashris is working on finishing up: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/560444/
12:33:36 efried alex_xu: bhagyashris is having trouble with the functional testing. I've got it on my backlog to help out there, but haven't gotten to it yet.
12:34:06 mriedem ok so i'll skip the cpu features bp this time for a runway slot since it's not ready
12:34:21 alex_xu efried: got it, thanks
12:34:32 alex_xu mriedem: yea, thanks, let us skip this time
12:35:30 mriedem naichuans: i've put https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/vgpu-rocky into a runway slot for the xenapi driver changes
12:35:34 mriedem https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/nova-runways-rocky
12:35:46 mriedem dansmith: we have a few new runway entries so should probably update the channel topic
12:35:46 efried alex_xu: If you wanted to help with that, it would be welcomed. Here's the test case bhagyashris has so far: http://paste.openstack.org/raw/720752/ (test_servers.py)
12:37:46 bhagyashris efried: Hi, i will push the patch soon
12:38:04 efried bhagyashris: Okay. Sorry I haven't gotten to that yet. Have you made progress?
12:46:28 alex_xu bhagyashris: let me know if you still have question
12:50:06 bhagyashris efried: no issue yes
12:50:18 bhagyashris alex_xu: thank you :)
12:50:18 efried great

13:44:42 dansmith jaypipes: on this: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/568613/5
13:45:00 jaypipes dansmith: yes?
13:45:01 dansmith jaypipes: isn't not allowing reserved=total just a bug? I feel like maybe we don't need the whole microversion dance
13:45:28 dansmith like someone did < instead of <= in some code somewhere?
13:45:30 jaypipes dansmith: I feel the same way.
13:45:50 dansmith jaypipes: does anyone not feel that way?
13:45:53 mriedem lyarwood: you +2ed the ocata backport but not the pike one :) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/568369/
13:46:15 dansmith my feeling is that there is no client that would depend on total=reserved returning a 400
13:46:17 mriedem dansmith: i brought it up when it was being discussed,
13:46:23 mriedem because no one knew why the capacity check was that way
13:47:21 mriedem and its a behavior change in the api, so you kind of need to know when you can make that kind of request and expect it to be ok
13:47:22 lyarwood mriedem: appears I closed the tab before gerrit actually updated the review, noice!
13:48:01 dansmith mriedem: but microversions aren't for providing bug-for-bug compatibility right? that's why we don't do one to fix a 500?
13:48:22 mriedem this isn't a 500
13:48:31 dansmith I know
13:48:51 dansmith but really, if we do it and get a 400, we can fall back to the same behavior as today
13:48:56 dansmith I dunno, this just seems overkill to me
13:49:13 mriedem i don't think i ever said i was going to block this when we talked about it in -placement weeks ago,
13:49:21 mriedem i -2ed the change this week because there is a spec up,
13:49:29 mriedem if people don't care about the api behavior change, then whatever
13:50:22 dansmith I would think that if this is a bug, with no microversion, that we'd backport the fix as .. a fix
13:50:54 mriedem meh - this doesn't even fix any real problem right now does it?
13:51:09 dansmith just MHO, I'm not strongly against a microversion I guess, I just .. I dunno.
13:51:09 mriedem the actual bug was already fixed some other way is my understanding
13:51:40 dansmith it fixes some logic that prevents nova from setting total=reserved when that should be totally legit
13:52:01 dansmith I dunno, I don't want to argue about it, but I definitely think total=reserved should be legit
13:52:04 dansmith and should have always been legit
13:52:04 mriedem so instead of doing ^ it deletes the node inventory right?
13:52:05 mriedem during cleaning
13:52:15 dansmith it doesn't now,
13:52:20 dansmith it just punts
13:52:21 dansmith well, wait,
13:52:30 dansmith it doesn't if there are no nodes, that's the failure/startup case I guess
13:52:37 dansmith so maybe it's still deleting inventory currently I guess
13:52:38 mriedem my understanding is we worked around the problem by deleting the inventory during cleaning
13:53:04 dansmith yeah, probably, I'm confusing the startup zero-day or ironic-is-down case, but anyway
13:53:31 mriedem i tend to think if this isn't needed to actually fix anything, and it's a behavior change, then it's a microversion
13:53:43 dansmith from the placement point of view,
13:53:54 dansmith I feel like it's a fix to a piece of logic that was wrong
13:54:11 dansmith sure, nova could continue to do the thing it does today to work around it, but
13:54:32 dansmith anyway, whatever, I'd rather just get it done regardless
13:55:59 mriedem do what y'all want, i will step aside on this one
13:57:33 dansmith no, it's not that big of a deal, we've got a spec, let's just roll
13:57:37 dansmith getting it working is the important thing
14:00:34 openstackgerrit Vladyslav Drok proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Allow having placement inventories with reserved value equal to total https://review.openstack.org/568613
14:01:30 BobBall mriedem / naichuans: Naichuan is on PRC time but yes, the XenAPI bits of the vgpu-rocky series are definitely ready for a runway slot.
14:05:25 dansmith vdrok: see my latest feedback on your spec? if it's not clear, I can just tweak the wording myself so we can land that
14:05:46 mriedem BobBall: yeah it's in the runway now,
14:05:54 vdrok dansmith: yeah just noticed that, I'll add a couple sentences there, thank you
14:05:56 mriedem i know they are in china, just dropping pings here for later reading
14:06:03 mriedem BobBall: but thanks for following up
14:06:08 dansmith vdrok: cool
14:07:12 BobBall mriedem: Thanks :) I was in a nice 2 hour meeting so didn't see the message until late
14:09:00 openstackgerrit Vladyslav Drok proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Allow having placement inventories with reserved value equal to total https://review.openstack.org/568613
14:12:50 dansmith mriedem: so, how is the virt driver going to know if it should return no inventory or reserved=total?
14:13:10 dansmith or I guess we'll just require the new microversion and fail if not
14:13:13 dansmith so nevermind
14:13:40 mriedem yar
14:16:25 dansmith mriedem: jaypipes: let's get this over with: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/568613/7
14:17:31 jaypipes dansmith: I'll let mriedem do that. I'm supportive of it.
14:18:49 mriedem will look in a bit
14:21:32 mriedem random question,
14:22:25 mriedem on the rare days that the sun comes up here, at 6am or so, i find myself waking up early, and not wanting to get in the shower right away because everyone else is still sleeping, so i go unshowered until like mid morning, is that a normal work-from-home trajectory when summer starts?
14:22:29 stephenfin efried: No idea what's going on here, I'm afraid. Might be worth reaching out to infra about that https://review.openstack.org/#/c/568065/
14:23:01 efried mriedem: How often do you shave?
14:23:05 mriedem hells bells,
