#openstack-nova - 2018-12-14
17:27:46 melwitt yeah, I understand
17:28:27 kashyap At the risk of being banned from the channel, if I might say ... I'm a bit old-fashioned in the sense that: A commit should explain without requiring network access :-)
17:28:45 melwitt heh
17:29:10 kashyap Sorry, it's a habit I learnt from the "mailing list" folks.
17:29:17 melwitt these days it feels like there's nothing you can do without network access
17:29:45 kashyap That's why I try to not "break people's flow of reading" by saying: here you must click on this link, and then, get distrated by the Reddit tab next to it
17:29:59 kashyap And then forget that you were reading the commit message :D
17:32:19 melwitt I'll put this bp (after you create it) on the "first week of jan" list since it sounds like the code change is simple, just a matter of docs and capturing details
17:33:09 kashyap Thanks, one messy thing (even the libvirt storage folks said) is the item I noted in the 1023434th line on the commit:
17:33:17 kashyap "Figure out _which_ combination of migration flags are valid. E.g. VIR_MIGRATE_NON_SHARED_INC + VIR_MIGRATE_TLS: To migrate the NBD stream over TLS. And what about VIR_MIGRATE_NON_SHARED_DISK?"
17:33:49 kashyap I need to carefully re-review what flags Nova uses, and what combinations we allow.
17:34:04 kashyap It's actually not "messy"; just a logic thing I need to work out.
17:35:22 melwitt ok
17:38:33 kashyap melwitt: When you get a minute: one comment on benchmarks
17:39:15 kashyap Benchmarks of non-native TLS vs. "native TLS", i.e. DanPB did some of it when he was doing the QEMU work
17:39:34 kashyap But I don't have the URL ready; I'll check w/ him and add that details in the "Q&A" with the reviewers
17:39:42 kashyap Hope it's not a "hard requirement"
17:45:41 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Record requester in the InstancePCIRequest https://review.openstack.org/625310
17:45:42 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Ensure that bandwidth and VF are from the same PF https://review.openstack.org/623543
17:45:42 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Add pf_interface_name tag to passthrough_whitelist https://review.openstack.org/625311
17:45:56 melwitt kashyap: I don't think so, since it's opt-in via conf option
17:50:58 openstackgerrit Jan Gutter proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Spec to implement os-vif generic datapath offloads https://review.openstack.org/607610
17:52:56 kashyap melwitt: Okido, noted.
17:53:36 melwitt would be certainly nice to include in the docs and/or spec when you find it
17:55:14 jangutter dansmith: so... I'm looking for a place to jot down the stuff I learned about ovo and versioning before I forget it and have to rediscover it.
17:55:52 jangutter dansmith: mostly the things about the great "composition vs inheritance" debate of 2018.
17:56:16 dansmith jangutter: yeah, I'm not sure what to tell you, but it seems like somewhere in ovo is the right place
17:57:07 jangutter dansmith: even if it ends up being an abandoned doc review, want to do something in January or so...
17:57:40 dansmith jangutter: january sounds god :)
17:57:41 dansmith *good
17:58:41 openstackgerrit Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova master: libvirt: Add workaround to cleanup instance dir when using rbd https://review.openstack.org/618478
17:59:30 jangutter dansmith: I was half-afraid that "just do it as a blog post" would be the go-to thing, but I'll try to make it generic enough that it's not a pain to update.
18:00:14 dansmith jangutter: yeah docs somewhere would be better I think, even if it has to start in nova, but just a text file in ovo would be better than nothing
18:00:43 kashyap melwitt: When you have a moment, as promised: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/support-qemu-native-tls-for-live-migration
18:00:59 melwitt thanks
18:01:27 melwitt aw, I was expecting a paste of your commit message in there
18:01:28 kashyap melwitt: Does it make sense? My eyes are weary from reading my own sentences
18:01:47 kashyap melwitt: I thought it's not "allowed"?
18:01:54 melwitt why not?
18:02:03 kashyap Can post the rest of it there as well. As the Blueprint says "this is shown in feature texts"
18:02:10 kashyap Implying: "be mindful what you post"
18:02:22 kashyap Okay, let me go post the rest
18:02:31 melwitt oh, I didn't know that. it's not shown in any of our docs
18:03:01 kashyap Ah, okay, then.
18:03:18 melwitt we use launchpad just for the milestone tracking and such, for organizing things
18:11:23 kashyap Yep, noted.
18:11:49 kashyap melwitt: When you can, please refresh and see if it's better
18:12:35 kashyap No ... he is a good mood today; I even got the Christmas present of a hug from him
18:12:53 kashyap Err, that "/me" sentence got borked. Let me rewrite
18:16:14 melwitt kashyap: looks fine to me. I didn't think anyone would have a problem with it, so if someone does, sorry for leading you astray. tell them it's my fault :)
18:16:29 kashyap Hehe
18:16:56 kashyap melwitt: No problem. If people ask me questions & convince me to write a spec, and I can't defend myself, I will of course write one without making excuses :-)
18:17:10 kashyap Okay, I'll make dinner, then
18:18:50 melwitt kashyap: yeah, I think the thought is, either way we want the details documented somewhere. so you can either add docs changes to your patch that explains all the version needed, flags to use, benchmark link, reference material link, etc. or, you can put that stuff in a spec. for now, I thought since you wrote that commit message, why not paste it in the blueprint for a starting point
18:19:29 melwitt you'll need a release note too, in your patch
18:20:59 kashyap Yeah, absolutely
18:21:09 kashyap Was just writing that in the TODO :-)
18:38:42 openstackgerrit Kashyap Chamarthy proposed openstack/nova master: libvirt: Support native TLS for migration and disks over NBD https://review.openstack.org/625216

19:50:56 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: libvirt: add live migration timeout action https://review.openstack.org/619143
20:15:46 melwitt started the "first week of jan" etherpad here https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/nova-stein-blueprint-spec-freeze
20:16:03 melwitt will send it to the ML when I have more filled out
20:16:28 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: Fix up force live migration completion docs https://review.openstack.org/625339
20:27:11 mriedem dansmith: so i want to test triggering a post-copy in the gate, but the problem is these tiny cirros instances live migrate in less than a second, and our completion timeout is in seconds (integers) so i need it to take at least a second. wondering if you're aware of any libvirt guest APIs where I can inject something into the guest to basically stall the live migration and force the timeout and switch to post-copy
20:27:19 mriedem i know sahid had that bandwidth thing...
20:30:33 mriedem hey we even have a config option for this... live_migration_bandwidth
20:33:33 dansmith mriedem: the only thing you can do to stall it from the inside is to dirty memory like a banshee
20:33:51 dansmith iirc, danpb had a little C program that would behave badly
20:34:03 dansmith but it'd be pretty dependent on how fast the machine was that you're testing on
20:34:44 dansmith but no, not aware of anything libvirty to help with that
20:35:08 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: DNM: test for force complete live migrate with post-copy https://review.openstack.org/625343

20:36:04 mriedem yeah ok maybe that won't work then
20:36:06 mriedem but i tried!
20:44:15 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Spec to implement os-vif generic datapath offloads https://review.openstack.org/607610
21:02:50 pbandark hi.. i am facing issue while creating instance on openstack. the instance is getting created. but, when I check the console logs of the vm, i can see kernel panic. https://pastebin.com/dZ2uTuFa any suggestion would be really helpful.

21:51:34 mriedem beekneemech: heh forgot about the functional test
21:52:13 mriedem dansmith: replied to your replies and new questions in the cross-cell resize spec https://review.openstack.org/#/c/616037/ - good things in there again, thanks. good news is since i wrote that, i think quite a bit of this is at least more clear, so some of the open questions are closing, which is nice.
21:52:15 beekneemech mriedem: Yeah, looks like it just got moved so it wouldn't have shown up in the conflict list.
21:52:29 mriedem dansmith: so you can exit for the year knowing it's sort of coming together
21:53:13 mriedem probably hairiest issue is how much existing code do we want to hack vs just writing something entirely new from scratch
21:53:44 mriedem i'm not sure i'll have the energy to poc an alternative next week, but maybe
21:53:59 mriedem i have already split a bunch of shit out
22:01:44 mriedem calling it quits o/
