#openstack-nova - 2018-06-07
13:05:11 openstackgerrit Jan Gutter proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Spec to implement vRouter HW offloads https://review.openstack.org/567148
13:23:05 openstackgerrit Chris Dent proposed openstack/nova master: Use nova.db.api directly https://review.openstack.org/543262
13:28:48 mdbooth mriedem: Related, but not strictly the same thing I think. I was checking how we end up unsetting the 'detaching' state and I came across this:
13:28:51 mdbooth http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/cinder/tree/cinder/volume/api.py#n1567
13:29:41 dansmith mriedem: yep
13:29:52 mdbooth In the tempest test, we swap one of the volumes, then we check if Nova still thinks that the other server is still attached to the original volume, which it apparently does
13:30:04 mdbooth However, I think this code might mean that *cinder* thinks it's not
13:30:54 mdbooth It looks like cinder is doing a detach(old)/attach(new) for all attachments, even though we only migrated one of them.
13:38:06 mdbooth However, the above would only be in the case of the direct nova call, because if it went via cinder there would be a migration record
13:43:41 mriedem mdbooth: that's only if nova calls that migration completion code
13:44:12 mriedem https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/manager.py#L5626
13:44:29 mriedem https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/manager.py#L5661
13:44:48 mriedem if the swap isn't initiated from cinder for a retype or volume migration, we don't call that callback method in cinder
13:53:11 mdbooth mriedem: Good point. I wonder where we unset that detaching state, then.
13:53:42 mdbooth ..we explicitly delete the attachment
13:56:04 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova stable/queens: Change consecutive build failure limit to a weigher https://review.openstack.org/573239
13:56:43 mriedem mdbooth: i think when the attachment record is deleted http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/cinder/tree/cinder/volume/api.py#n2188
13:57:05 mriedem if there are no more attachments, the volume is available
13:57:13 mriedem if there are other attached attachments, the volume goes back to in-use
13:57:49 mriedem mordred: it's time that we need some API super users to peruse this spec https://review.openstack.org/#/c/557369/ - i'm going to put it on the ML too
13:58:07 mriedem mordred: what nova api should do when listing servers and we have down cells
14:02:16 mordred mriedem: I have it open to read
14:02:26 mriedem <3
14:06:33 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova stable/pike: Change consecutive build failure limit to a weigher https://review.openstack.org/573248
14:09:05 mriedem dansmith: we should backport https://review.openstack.org/#/c/569127/ to queens probably
14:09:16 mriedem it would help with your backport https://review.openstack.org/#/c/573239/ too
14:09:51 dansmith well I already fixed the conflict, but okay
14:10:58 dansmith I guess that means I have to do both of these over
14:11:29 mriedem the pike one shouldn't have any impact from that max attempts thing
14:11:31 mriedem since that was queens only
14:11:43 dansmith the hash will change
14:11:48 dansmith on the queens one
14:11:50 mriedem sure
14:14:25 mriedem you can use this for that max_attempts backport https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1775625
14:14:27 mriedem for the paperwork
14:14:27 openstack Launchpad bug 1775625 in OpenStack Compute (nova) queens "nova-scheduler calculates alternative hosts incorrectly" [Medium,Triaged]
14:14:28 efried wtf dansmith this is like the second time this week you're online before 8.
14:15:07 dansmith efried: up at 6am every.single.day.dude.
14:17:20 mdbooth Does anything ever create RequestContext except n-api?
14:18:03 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova stable/queens: Change consecutive build failure limit to a weigher https://review.openstack.org/573239
14:18:04 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova stable/queens: Fix interpretation of max_attempts for scheduling alternates https://review.openstack.org/573254
14:18:13 dansmith mriedem: ^ does that make you happy?
14:18:45 mdbooth dansmith: happy seems like a stretch goal :)
14:19:32 dansmith mdbooth: it was a setup for him to say nothing makes him happy
14:19:47 mriedem i'm currently unable to stand up in polite company
14:19:47 mdbooth dansmith: And I ruined it... Sorry dude.
14:19:55 dansmith mriedem: lol
14:20:04 dansmith mriedem: too far.
14:20:06 mdbooth haha
14:20:15 mriedem hey, you threw the softball
14:21:31 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova stable/pike: Change consecutive build failure limit to a weigher https://review.openstack.org/573248
14:33:29 kashyap Hi folks, when someone gets time, can anyone else comment on the 'params' dict thing here: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/567258/
14:34:02 kashyap The "tests pass", etc. But I'm undecided on that single point.
14:37:50 stephenfin kashyap: I'd be inclined to agree too. However, if you want to keep it to a separate cleanup patch, I imagine that would be ok (and maybe better - it's beefy enough as-is)
14:39:06 kashyap stephenfin: Okay, good to know. Making an additional patch on top of it means, removing what I just added in this one. That doesn't sound so clean.
14:39:25 kashyap But yeah, I also didn't wanted to make this existing patch already too clumsy and big.
14:39:53 stephenfin kashyap: Your call :)
14:40:35 kashyap But I also don't want to forget the "keep changes relatively small and split up patches" to make reviewing easy. :-)
14:40:49 kashyap Okido, I'll work something out tomm. and post it.
14:40:52 kashyap Thanks for the comment.
14:44:03 openstackgerrit Chen proposed openstack/python-novaclient master: Remove PyPI downloads https://review.openstack.org/573278
14:45:43 mriedem booya https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:remove_pypi_downloads+(status:open+OR+status:merged)
14:47:00 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: add mtu to libvirt xml for ethernet and bridge types https://review.openstack.org/553072
14:52:12 openstackgerrit John Garbutt proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Add PENDING vm state https://review.openstack.org/554212
15:00:13 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Send resource allocations in the port binding https://review.openstack.org/569459
15:28:58 johnthetubaguy bauzas looking at the comments you made on the rebuild cell0 instance spec: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/554218
15:29:09 johnthetubaguy and gibi: ^
15:29:21 bauzas yup ?
15:29:22 johnthetubaguy you make some great points, but not sure how we move things forward
15:29:58 johnthetubaguy I was wondering about data migrations, after adding a new field, is that needed? probably not till we want to bump the object version I guess?
15:30:24 bauzas johnthetubaguy: about the persisted networks you mean ?
15:32:59 bauzas johnthetubaguy: the online data migration you ask is for setting the field for the existing req_spec records, right?
15:33:17 bauzas johnthetubaguy: that's why I thought about a lazy-loadable attribute
15:33:38 bauzas because there are two things
15:34:05 bauzas 1/ the instance is being created but then not getting a compute, then going into cell0
15:34:18 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova stable/pike: Change consecutive build failure limit to a weigher https://review.openstack.org/573248
15:34:20 bauzas so, then, we're sure, the requested_networks is good
15:34:44 mriedem dansmith: ^ updated the commit message to note the other difference in that backport
15:34:54 bauzas 2/ the instance is now rebuilded, so there are some new possible networks
15:35:02 bauzas then, the field could be stale
15:35:30 bauzas johnthetubaguy: but for the data migration just because of a new field, we don't need it
15:35:57 johnthetubaguy bauzas: yeah, I just went through a similar though process, I think its fine without the migration
15:36:07 dansmith mriedem: oh actually I didn't notice that got faulted in
15:36:19 dansmith not sure that's going to work as-is
15:36:25 mriedem we don't have requested_networks on request spec today, and gibi is adding them in but not persisting them for the bw based scheduling stuff
15:36:37 johnthetubaguy bauzas: so block_device_mapping, isn't it the same deal, its just the initial one in there?
15:36:51 mriedem bdms aren't in reqspec eithre
15:37:09 mriedem however,
15:37:13 mriedem i believe bdms get stored in cell0 o nfailure
15:37:13 johnthetubaguy so I keep getting build_request and request_spec mixed up maybe
15:37:20 mriedem build_request is gone once the instance is in a cell
15:37:33 gibi johnthetubaguy, mriedem: yes, as I want to avoid the situation when a later operation reads the requested_networks from the RequestSpec taht is stale
15:37:47 johnthetubaguy yeah, maybe build request is where we want this
15:38:07 mriedem https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/conductor/manager.py#L1074
15:38:18 mriedem bdms get put into cell0 on failure so we can detach volumes when you delete the failed server
15:38:30 mriedem s/detach/unreserve/
15:38:48 mriedem https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/api.py#L1971
15:38:59 bauzas the question is, can we discover the requested networks for existing req_spec records ?
15:39:13 bauzas we have the instance field, right?
15:39:16 mriedem requested networks are not persisted
