08:08:40 sean-k-mooney or traits changes
08:09:34 kashyap sean-k-mooney: It is not just about 'compat check'. The resulting CPU + flags will be more _useful_ and _useable_
08:09:46 sean-k-mooney how
08:10:22 kashyap I explained it in the spec. I wonder if you even read that.
08:10:24 sean-k-mooney the set of flag we get back for what the host support wont change
08:10:30 sean-k-mooney yes i did
08:10:36 sean-k-mooney you did not explain it well
08:10:44 sean-k-mooney in terms of how its more useful to nova
08:10:57 sean-k-mooney beyond we can as if the value in the config are valid
08:12:09 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Did you read this at all?
08:12:11 kashyap [quote]
08:12:12 kashyap - While determining guest CPU models, Nova can take into account several other aspects, e.g. the type of virtualization (pure emulation vs. hardware-accelerated), QEMU binary's capabilities, guest machine type, and CPU architcture to construct a better-informed guest CPU.
08:12:16 kashyap [/quote]
08:12:20 kashyap What is unclear about that?
08:12:38 kashyap Your "how" is answered by the above.
08:12:42 sean-k-mooney what is uncleare is what does "better-informned guest cpu" mean
08:13:13 sean-k-mooney will the cpu flag in the guest (via lscpu) change
08:13:31 kashyap Please wait.
08:13:38 kashyap One thing at a time.
08:14:35 kashyap You get a "better-informed guest CPU" because: the newer API, when calculating baseline, baselineHypervisorCPU() will *filter out* CPU features that are not supported by QEMU on the host.

08:52:29 openstackgerrit Surya Seetharaman proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Support server power state update through external event https://review.opendev.org/636132
11:21:39 alex_xu emm...US evus enrollment not compatible with google chrome :(
11:46:20 jangutter alex_xu: Could be worse, according to https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/1090/~/technical-difficulties-submitting-my-esta-application the ESTA system supports IE 5 SP 2, or Netscape 6.2
11:53:21 sean-k-mooney jangutter: firefox worked for me but ya government sites then to be updated infrequently
12:01:57 jangutter (the versions of Netscape and IE probably correspond to the date that the original software was delivered by the contractors.)
12:02:40 sean-k-mooney ya the current maintainer (if there is one) proably has never seen that page

12:13:39 mriedem i need a stable core to hit this queens backport https://review.opendev.org/#/c/640198/
12:22:12 openstackgerrit sean mooney proposed openstack/nova master: [WIP] Libvirt: add nfv job https://review.opendev.org/652197
12:26:48 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: DNM: debug config opts infinite recursion https://review.opendev.org/654468
12:26:49 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: Don't run tempest/devstack jobs on nova/test.py only changes https://review.opendev.org/655121
12:32:53 aspiers vcpu:1
12:32:57 aspiers oops
12:40:24 kashyap aspiers: When you're about -- remind me again, are you planning to cache the result of getDomainCapabilities(), as part of SEV work?
12:41:20 aspiers kashyap: not just planning, but https://review.opendev.org/#/c/633855/12/nova/virt/libvirt/host.py already does that
12:41:56 kashyap aspiers: Ah:
12:41:57 kashyap machine_type, virt_type)
12:41:57 kashyap self._get_domain_capabilities(emulator_bin, arch,
12:41:57 kashyap domain_caps[arch][machine_type] = \
12:42:02 aspiers right
12:42:11 kashyap aspiers: So something to consider:
12:43:08 kashyap aspiers: This morning, while talking to a libvirt developer (Michal Privoznik), he was saying: caching domain capabilities probably doesn't make sense -- because it will be outdated everytime libvirt and QEMU are updated.
12:43:09 arshad777 Hi everyone: I am trying to create an instance on multi-node setup. But getting error "no valid host found". For detail refer url http://paste.openstack.org/show/749631/
12:43:43 arshad777 compute services are running. Please refer url http://paste.openstack.org/show/749630/ for more detail
12:43:47 aspiers kashyap: it would only be cached in the running service, not persisted to disk
12:43:53 kashyap aspiers: As we know, there are 4 input values (path to qemu binary, guest architecture, machine type and virt type) -- so any change if one of them and we get a different set of capabilities
12:44:04 kashyap aspiers: Noted
12:44:05 aspiers kashyap: if a compute node's libvirt/QEMU gets updated, it seems reasonable to expect that nova-compute will get restarted too
12:44:19 aspiers or at least for major updates
12:44:32 kashyap aspiers: Yes, not "reasonable", it should, to avoid any surprises :-)
12:45:20 mriedem jaypipes: can you take a look at the stein regression bug fix series starting with the functional recreate test here? https://review.opendev.org/#/c/653268/
12:45:48 aspiers kashyap: qemu binary path will have a single value and is programmatically obtained
12:46:11 aspiers and virt type will presumably be fixed within the context of the libvirt driver anyway
12:46:18 aspiers so in reality it's just two values which can change
12:46:23 mriedem gibi: can you take a look at the stein regression bug fix series starting here? https://review.opendev.org/#/c/653098/
12:46:32 kashyap aspiers: True, good point. (So you're aware of it; just thought I'd notify.)
12:46:38 aspiers unless it's possible to have the libvirt driver allowing both Xen and KVM on one host
12:46:38 gibi mriedem: looking
12:46:43 aspiers which I assumed not
12:46:55 aspiers or at least that noone would be crazy enough to try that ;-)
12:47:04 kashyap aspiers: No, that's too FrankenStack to mix it like that :D
12:47:08 aspiers right
12:47:29 kashyap Okay, /me moves "office", home --> library; bbiab
12:48:57 aspiers kashyap: getting the emulator was the whole point of https://review.opendev.org/#/c/640483/
12:51:54 sean-k-mooney aspiers: what were you going to use the emulator for?
12:52:35 aspiers for calling the API as per above
12:52:38 aspiers gotta run, biab
12:54:13 sean-k-mooney aspiers: you can only have kvm and zen on the same host if you run two agents. and are happy to support it entirly yourself because noone else will touch it :)
12:56:42 sean-k-mooney kashyap: if you did not restat the agent i think we would pick you the capablity changes via the periodic task but ya it would be an ill defined state untill that happened
12:57:08 kashyap Right
13:03:16 mriedem melwitt: about 5am i was thinking about quota and rebuild from cell0 - thoughts are in the spec https://review.opendev.org/#/c/648686/2/specs/train/approved/enable-rebuild-for-instances-in-cell0.rst@96 if you can check my thinking
13:03:49 mriedem tssurya: is your locked_reason stuff ready for review? if so, can you queue it up for runways?
13:04:58 gibi mriedem: what will happen if we run the migration, run archive, run migration, run archive again. Does that second archive fail to move the marker instance due to a unique constraint on the uuid field in the shadow table?
13:05:40 openstackgerrit Nikolay Fedotov proposed openstack/nova master: Fix disappearing ironic hypervisors after rebuilding hashring https://review.opendev.org/654584
13:07:28 gibi mriedem: never mind, we dont add the unique constraint to the shadow tables
13:07:43 gibi mriedem: series starting at https://review.opendev.org/#/c/653098/ looks good to me
13:07:44 mriedem right
13:08:42 mriedem thinking about your migration + archive thing, i don't think we archive the deleted marker instance because of the fkey relationship to the vif
13:09:58 mriedem i also don't think we ever delete the marker vif even if we don't need to migrate any more records,
13:10:25 mriedem so eventually when we remove that online data migration, we'll likely also need to delete the marker vif so archiving can remove it and we can remove the hack in the api
13:13:05 gibi mriedem: hm, then I don't get how your functional test passes at https://review.opendev.org/#/c/653098/2/nova/tests/functional/regressions/test_bug_1825034.py@77
13:13:35 gibi mriedem: or we delete the marker instance but no the marker vif?
13:13:49 mriedem correct
13:14:03 mriedem the instance record is soft deleted but the marker vif is not
13:14:19 mriedem efried: i reckon anything going into a runway slot today will get an extra week because of the summit yeah?
13:14:49 gibi mriedem: I see
13:15:30 mriedem melwitt: i removed the counting quotas from placement series out of the runway slot since the time expired but feel free to queue it back up
13:17:31 bauzas mriedem: sorry was on bank holiday yesterday, how can I help with some review ?
13:17:54 openstackgerrit Lucian Petrut proposed openstack/nova master: Expose Hyper-V supported image types https://review.opendev.org/655137
13:18:13 mriedem bauzas: stein regression series starting here would be good https://review.opendev.org/#/c/653268/
13:18:30 mriedem bauzas: and i need review on this queens backport https://review.opendev.org/#/c/640198/
13:18:47 mriedem we're very close to closing out pike
