12:04:28 efried Yeah, I usually can't be bothered to type the thing out, so I run it once with a substring and no -n, and then copy the test name from that output for subsequent runs with -n
12:04:39 aspiers yeah I do that sometimes too
12:04:47 stephenfin For some reason, I expected the project-team-guide to be a docs team deliverable
12:05:18 stephenfin I'm kind of glad it's not, since we're trying to offload what we can, but still - I want my +2 rights, dammit
12:12:17 cdent stephenfin: i'm certain someone will be very happy to give them to you
12:16:45 aspiers efried: question about implementation of https://review.opendev.org/#/c/664420/11/nova/virt/hardware.py@2144 ...
12:17:03 efried was just responding to that
12:17:04 aspiers efried: requiring each caller to implement the any() logic feels wrong
12:17:11 efried don't do anything drastic
12:17:18 efried cause I had a better idea in my sleep last night.
12:17:21 aspiers ah?
12:17:31 efried will comment, stand by.
12:17:34 aspiers OK!
12:22:44 efried aspiers: responded.
12:22:48 aspiers ack
12:28:57 efried aspiers: sane?
12:29:33 aspiers efried: so ditch the need to log the exact reason *why* mem encryption has been requested?
12:29:42 rdopiera bauzas: so about https://review.opendev.org/#/c/666394/
12:29:43 aspiers I thought that was kind of useful
12:29:53 efried aspiers: no, I'm saying log that in the helper
12:29:57 efried not in the filter
12:30:00 aspiers oh, gotcha
12:30:15 efried phrased in helper-speak, not in filter-speak - see other comment
12:30:21 aspiers sure
12:30:30 aspiers so then it gets logged in the API calls too
12:30:33 efried yes!
12:30:39 bauzas rdopiera: yup, so long story there
12:30:45 aspiers even though that's only done for validation
12:30:49 efried dandy
12:30:52 aspiers OK
12:30:54 efried we're at debug, yah?
12:30:59 aspiers I guess so
12:31:12 efried If that really bothers you, add a do_log=False kwarg
12:31:18 bauzas rdopiera: basically, old microversions (<2.29) were forcing the destination when you were providing a target
12:31:21 efried but it doesn't bother me at all.
12:31:34 aspiers efried: nice idea, but yeah I guess it's fine anyway
12:31:39 bauzas rdopiera: (for live-migration and for evacuate)
12:32:10 bauzas rdopiera: that's why by default it's False in Nova
12:32:16 bauzas oops, s/False/True
12:32:31 openstackgerrit sean mooney proposed openstack/nova master: Revert resize: wait for events according to hybrid plug https://review.opendev.org/644881
12:33:01 bauzas rdopiera: but with 2.30 microversion, we pass a 'False' value unless you have the --force option
12:34:11 rdopiera bauzas: what about >2.67?
12:37:25 bauzas rdopiera: by 2.67, we removed the --force flag
12:38:23 bauzas rdopiera: https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/7aa2285e724345717a3f333adc13660d7b97dfcd
12:38:48 bauzas in particular https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/7aa2285e724345717a3f333adc13660d7b97dfcd#diff-6c3b14d3964eb808ade9d3e7c5d4676d
12:39:21 bauzas if api_version_request.is_supported(req, min_version='2.30'): force = body["os-migrateLive"].get("force", False) force = strutils.bool_from_string(force, strict=True)
12:39:56 bauzas rdopiera: so Nova API defaults the force argument to False after 2.30
12:40:22 rdopiera bauzas: so for >2.67 force=False always?
12:41:38 bauzas rdopiera: it changed a bit but https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/api/openstack/compute/migrate_server.py#L104-L105
12:42:05 bauzas rdopiera: which does the same indeed https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/api/openstack/compute/migrate_server.py#L168-L174
12:42:40 bauzas rdopiera: it's just the JSON schema which changed
12:43:01 bauzas after 2.67, it's no longer possible to pass a force field to the API
12:43:04 rdopiera so in plain words, what is your recommendation for handling that in Horizon?
12:43:15 bauzas so it always defaults to False
12:43:36 rdopiera right, so we only need a special case for 2.29?
12:43:52 bauzas rdopiera: well, looking at https://review.opendev.org/#/c/666394/2/openstack_dashboard/api/nova.py
12:44:12 bauzas rdopiera: with 2.30 and later, you don't need to pass a force flag
12:45:44 rdopiera if client.api_version == api_versions.APIVersion('2.29'):
12:45:44 rdopiera so something like
12:46:29 rdopiera os should we just make sure to request a microversion older than 2.29 instead?
12:46:34 bauzas well, you would then change the UX right?
12:47:03 rdopiera I think that was the idea behind the reported issue in the first place
12:47:13 bauzas remember, before 2.30, it wasn't possible to not force a destination
12:48:03 bauzas it was either possible to either pass a destination and then force to it without checking the scheduler *or* not pass a destination and then the scheduler would be giving you some target
12:48:06 bauzas rdopiera: ^
12:48:15 rdopiera and after 2.67 it's impossible to force it
12:48:22 bauzas correct
12:48:33 rdopiera so there is going to be a change at some point either way
12:48:44 bauzas so, I'd recommend you to not ask for a target with 2.29 and older
12:49:14 bauzas and for 2.30, accept a target by defaulting to not force to it
12:49:39 bauzas that actually depends on what kind of user experience you'd like to provide
12:50:15 bauzas the force flag was just a way to keep the same behaviour for some time
12:51:30 rdopiera personally I don't feel like I have enough knowledge about Nova to decide on user experience, I would rather ask for recommendation from people who designed it
12:52:53 rdopiera you know what, how about I just abandon that patch and close the bug with "current version" explaining that later versions of the api behave as expected?
13:23:21 mriedem o/
13:23:30 sean-k-mooney o/
13:33:10 bauzas rdopiera: whoops, missed your question
13:33:38 efried kashyap: "Book will arrive tomorrow" --Renae (aka wife aka personal shopper)
13:33:41 bauzas rdopiera: I think yeah it's a reasonable approach, as I wouldn't recommend to change an expected behaviour
13:34:04 kashyap efried: Ow, you trusted me. Thank you :-)
13:34:12 bauzas rdopiera: but this is kind of a tribal knowledge, so again it really depends on what the horizon community would like to see
13:34:31 bauzas and when I see community, I obviously mean devs *and* ops
13:34:38 bauzas (or rather users)
13:45:16 mriedem alex_xu: i replied to you here https://review.opendev.org/#/c/610727/ - i'm not sure if i misunderstood your comment
13:49:03 mriedem sean-k-mooney: is https://review.opendev.org/#/c/644881/ ready for re-review? i saw you went from PS33 to PS37 :)
13:51:02 sean-k-mooney it should be. i had to fix the unit tests and then i had to put it to grammerly to fix my spelling in the commit message
13:52:37 sean-k-mooney the changes are not really that big but i think i have adressed everything. ill respin if there are anything else you would like changed.
13:53:03 openstackgerrit Adam Spiers proposed openstack/nova master: Add extra spec parameter and image property for memory encryption https://review.opendev.org/664420
13:53:11 aspiers efried: ^^^ should address all your feedback
13:53:19 efried ack
13:56:07 aspiers rebasing ...
13:56:13 openstackgerrit Adam Spiers proposed openstack/nova master: Pass extra_specs to flavor in vif tests https://review.opendev.org/662556

13:56:15 openstackgerrit Adam Spiers proposed openstack/nova master: Detect that SEV is required and enable iommu for devices https://review.opendev.org/644565
13:56:15 openstackgerrit Adam Spiers proposed openstack/nova master: Allow guest devices to include https://review.opendev.org/644564
13:56:16 openstackgerrit Adam Spiers proposed openstack/nova master: Enable memory locking if SEV is requested https://review.opendev.org/662558
13:56:16 openstackgerrit Adam Spiers proposed openstack/nova master: Use element when SEV is required https://review.opendev.org/662557
14:01:19 aspiers efried: the way bbobrov added the code to ensure virtio devices have IOMMU enabled when SEV is requested, it was inserted within each chunk of device config creation. I'm wondering if it might be better to have a single method which is called after all device config is created if SEV is required, and iterates over each device, enabling IOMMU where required?
