#openstack-nova - 2019-04-22
19:32:46 sean-k-mooney other vms worked fine so im wondering if this is related to load/memory pressure.
19:41:39 mriedem d15ab1ed-0000-0000-0000-00000000000 :)
19:43:32 efried sean-k-mooney: speaking of CI...
19:44:08 sean-k-mooney what did i break now :)
19:44:15 efried I got an extremely vague question from within the blue walls today about what kinds of tests the PCI job ought to be running.
19:44:25 efried I hadn't a clue, but thought you might.
19:46:07 sean-k-mooney ideally pci passthough via alaise in the flavor + neutron sriov interface, then it would be nice to alos test cold migration/resize and possibly live migration in the neutron case
19:46:18 efried someone said something like the PCI job was just setting up devstack and not running any actual tests. I'm not sure how accurate that could be, or if they were looking at the wrong thing, or if at some point we disabled all the actual tests while we were working on the infra, or what.
19:46:32 sean-k-mooney i would just run the standared tempest test with tweeked flavors and different vnic_types
19:46:58 sean-k-mooney efried: it runs test but it boots like 1 vm or very few tests
19:48:02 efried was the PCI job just hitting SR-IOV?
19:48:17 efried Cause there's an SRIOV job that runs against neutron
19:48:22 efried not sure if those are related
19:49:17 sean-k-mooney the pci job was ment for testing QAT integration with flavor bassed passthough
19:49:29 sean-k-mooney there was a seperate one for neutron sriov testing
19:49:53 sean-k-mooney looking at http://52.27.155.124/pci/482200/7/
19:50:07 sean-k-mooney there are not test in the test repofrt
19:50:35 sean-k-mooney but im not sure that means threare are not test
19:51:18 sean-k-mooney it looks like some test are run http://52.27.155.124/pci/482200/7/console_status.log.gz
19:52:48 efried I can't tell if they pass
19:54:21 sean-k-mooney nor can i
19:54:46 sean-k-mooney looking at the devstack output and the tempest config i cant see tehm creating any custom flavor either
19:55:55 efried how did you know where to find these logs?
19:56:11 efried the CI is running, just not reporting?
19:56:41 sean-k-mooney i clicked on an old log got a 404 and went up one directory
19:57:13 efried how did you know this patch had any results? Did you search for reviewedby:Intel PCI?
19:57:52 sean-k-mooney i looked at one of my patches that i knew it had commented on in the past
19:58:08 sean-k-mooney http://52.27.155.124/ you can see the rest of the logs are here for the other intel cis
19:58:28 efried IC
19:59:00 sean-k-mooney this is a ovh log server that i used ot own/payfor via intel for the ci logs
19:59:49 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: DNM: debug config opts infinite recursion https://review.opendev.org/654468
20:00:11 sean-k-mooney or maybe it moved
20:00:16 sean-k-mooney it used to be http://intel-openstack-ci-logs.ovh
20:00:37 efried I think the 52. is aws
20:01:18 sean-k-mooney ya the pci ci used an aws log server. they moved to using our ovh one for a while i guess it moved back to aws at some point
20:01:20 efried yeah, that whole class A is amazon's. Not sure if that means aws, but probably
20:01:54 sean-k-mooney basicaly it just had to be a server that was not on the intel network
20:02:06 efried right, so the outside world could see it.
20:02:45 sean-k-mooney actully no os that you did not have to go through a 3 level security review to host an external facing service on the coperate network
20:03:10 efried yeah, that too
20:03:33 sean-k-mooney if its not on the copreate network it was way eaiser aslo the pci ci was originally in china which casued issues
20:04:07 efried okay, I'm going to dive over the firewall and throw some of this intel back at intel. Thanks for the help.
20:04:52 sean-k-mooney cool anyway my adivice would be to do something like im doing in the nfv ci test job
20:05:19 sean-k-mooney e.g. run standared tempest test but use a custom flavor or tweek teh vnic_type used in the tempest config
20:05:31 sean-k-mooney that will test 90% of the edgecases
20:05:50 sean-k-mooney at that point if the ci is stable it can be extended to test more neich things
20:07:13 mriedem dansmith: despite my typo in https://review.opendev.org/#/c/640197/ i'd like to get that in so we can move the grenade live migration job in-tree (this is under the queens backport) - because of devstack changes in queens + grenade i have to disable the ceph stuff in the grenade case, but it's either that or just drop the job altogether from queens which i'd like to avoid
20:07:48 mriedem the commit message attempts to explain the mess and reasoning for just punting and disabling the ceph case
20:09:26 dansmith okay
20:14:54 sean-k-mooney mriedem: speaking of ceph we have a downstream request to backport two of your patches to newton wich is eol upstrema. https://review.opendev.org/#/q/topic:bug/1635008+(status:open+OR+status:merged) i know its been quite a while but are you aware of any reaon of the top of your head why that woudl be a bad idea.
20:15:28 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: Add functional recreate test for regression bug 1825537 https://review.opendev.org/654066

20:15:34 sean-k-mooney it looked resonable to me at first glance but just said i woudl ask
20:15:58 mriedem sean-k-mooney: yes
20:16:20 mriedem there was a regression introduced
20:16:39 sean-k-mooney oh im glad i asked :)
20:16:50 mriedem for $5 i'll tell you the secret

20:18:08 mriedem that might be the other one
20:18:37 mriedem https://review.opendev.org/#/q/Ieba216275c07ab16414065ee47e66915e9e9477d
20:19:01 sean-k-mooney ok so it did not handel olde connection info. so if we are to backprot it we need to backport the fixes for the regression too
20:19:35 mriedem sure
20:19:48 mriedem or just tell the bank to upgrade
20:20:16 sean-k-mooney i mean if i could i would but...
20:20:44 sean-k-mooney that said depending on how invasive the other fixes are that might be answer
20:23:28 sean-k-mooney huh the last one was only fixed recently in the grand scheme fo things
20:41:44 efried sean-k-mooney: I can see whitelist/alias stuff in the nova.confZ
20:42:04 efried pci_passthrough_whitelist = [{"vendor_id":"8086","product_id":"1520"}]
20:42:05 efried pci_alias = {"name":"pci_network_card","vendor_id":"8086","product_id":"1520"}
20:42:23 efried Presumably that does no good without a flavor requesting something at that alias?
20:42:51 efried well, I mean, I guess it at least proves that the parts of the pci subsystem that parse those and generate the list of legal devices don't explode.
20:43:58 efried Do you have any idea where a guy could find the script that's running the show here?
20:47:00 sean-k-mooney correct
20:47:21 sean-k-mooney unless the flavor request the alaise it does not do anything
20:47:41 sean-k-mooney for the device to be useable for neutron the physnet would have to be set in the whitelist
20:48:21 sean-k-mooney they could be using a local.conf like i am. my guess would be it burried in a jenkins job somewhere
20:48:33 efried that's what I figured
20:48:47 efried I also really, really don't want to get too deeply involved here.
20:48:59 sean-k-mooney ha to late :P
20:49:04 efried I recognize it's a Learning Opportunity
20:49:25 sean-k-mooney well its being converted to zull v3 right
20:49:26 efried but if I go start debugging the CI, my life is over.
20:49:29 efried yes, afaik
20:49:51 sean-k-mooney so i woudl ignore how its currently running
20:50:02 sean-k-mooney and plan for how it will run
20:50:07 efried I sort of get the impression that there was someone competent doing all the work here, and then whoever that is left the company.
20:50:58 efried And those left behind are scrambling to figure out wtf is going on.
20:51:17 sean-k-mooney well yes but that happened liek 2 years ago :P
20:51:23 efried oh
20:51:34 sean-k-mooney actully the pci ci was always different
20:51:46 efried well, I know it would take *me* at least two years to figure out how this stuff works...
20:52:01 sean-k-mooney but the nfv ci was run by me an waldek but he left to joing redhat 2 years ago
20:52:48 sean-k-mooney the pci ci was run by a team of 1 person out of the PRC site but they had other respociblityes
20:53:05 efried different topic: "completing numa affinity polices for neutron sriov interfaces." <== on the PTG agenda. What's the status of this? Bullet says you were going to write a spec or something?
20:53:26 sean-k-mooney ya basically what i want to get out of that topic it the direct
20:53:36 sean-k-mooney i could just repopose the old spec
20:53:51 sean-k-mooney which say use a flavor/image property to specify the policy
