13:49:48 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: rbd: use MAX_AVAIL stat for reporting bytes available https://review.opendev.org/556692
13:52:09 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Switch some GitHub URLs to point to opendev.org https://review.opendev.org/677185
13:52:17 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova stable/stein: Add useful error log when _determine_version_cap raises DBNotAllowed https://review.opendev.org/675714
13:53:11 mriedem Sundar: fair enough, i just looked through the series and the failed tests and indeed they look unrelated, just need rechecking
13:53:30 mriedem as for review, i didn't know it was ready yet - i thought most of the work was being done on the cyborg side (i see the series there isn't merged yet either)
13:53:54 donnyd efried: so it looks like changing consecutive_build_service_disable_threshold=0 solved the issues with ghost disabling of the FN hypervisors. Now I just need to find the proper weight to associate with build_failure_weight_multiplier
13:54:19 mriedem Sundar: it might be good to post something short to the mailing list given a status update, e.g. where the nova patches are (what's ready, what's not - known limitations), and what's going on on the cyborg side - and what the status is on getting a fake cyborg driver for integration testing with tempest going so we can have more confidence in the nova patches
13:55:07 mriedem donnyd: i don't think you do if you set consecutive_build_service_disable_threshold=0
13:55:17 mriedem 0 * any weight multiplier is 0
13:55:47 donnyd mriedem: I am going to set that back to an appropriate value, was just making sure that was the reason the hypervisors were being ghost disabled
13:56:31 donnyd I don't want actually broken hypervisors to be in system if nova will take care of that for me
13:57:19 donnyd But i am thinking changing it back to something reasonable, and then setting a weight that doesn't take it out of system for too long would be a good resolution
13:57:54 donnyd but I also may not fully understand how build_failure_weight_multiplier works... so I am going to science the crap out of it
13:58:45 mriedem ♪ she blinded me with science ♪
14:02:52 Sundar mriedem: Yes, but we are able to test with the Cyborg patches. We will merge them soon.
14:03:00 artom Huh, looks like the NUMA functional tests never actually used the NUMATopologyFilter...
14:03:02 bauzas stephenfin: I'm pretty done with the first patch but I'm confused about one last bit
14:03:10 stephenfin hit me
14:03:16 artom At least, based on the debug logs I'm seeing, that filter's not in there...
14:03:49 artom Err
14:03:55 artom Ignore me :(
14:03:56 bauzas stephenfin: after looking and looking the spec, can't say whether VCPU resources can potentially change or not based on the flags
14:04:07 mriedem artom: see ♪
14:04:09 mriedem damn
14:04:13 mriedem NUMAServersTestBase
14:04:22 mriedem group='filter_scheduler')
14:04:22 mriedem ['NUMATopologyFilter'],
14:04:22 mriedem self.flags(enabled_filters=CONF.filter_scheduler.enabled_filters +
14:04:32 artom mriedem, right, I know the code's there, I just thought it didn't work for some reason
14:04:52 mriedem throw a raise Exception('does this work?') into the filter and see
14:04:54 stephenfin artom: They definitely use the filter. We've got checks on its side effects
14:04:56 mriedem professional debugging
14:05:07 artom So it's just my func test then :(
14:05:31 bauzas stephenfin: previously, we were only reporting a total VCPUs
14:05:41 bauzas stephenfin: now, we're about to report both VCPU and PCPU
14:05:51 bauzas based on the flags use
14:06:10 stephenfin bauzas: So if I'm understanding you correctly...
14:06:13 stephenfin Previously:
14:06:36 stephenfin no CPU-related configuration -> report all host CPUs (online and offline) as VCPU
14:06:53 stephenfin 'vcpu_pin_set' -> report all host CPUs listed in this option as VCPU
14:06:54 bauzas correct
14:07:12 stephenfin (and there's a check to make sure everything listed in 'vcpu_pin_set' is online)
14:07:15 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: vcpu_pin_set requried all cpus to be online
14:07:23 mriedem damn melwitt is out today and tomorrow
14:07:26 sean-k-mooney if it they were not you could not start the agent
14:07:29 bauzas and dansmith too
14:07:33 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: Ooof, beaten to the punch ;)
14:07:34 bauzas mriedem: ^
14:07:46 mriedem dan is out tomorrow
14:07:49 stephenfin After:
14:07:51 mriedem i thought anyway
14:07:55 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: :)
14:08:12 bauzas gosh, those people taking perpetual PTOs...
14:08:12 stephenfin no CPU-related configuration -> report all *online* host CPUs as VCPU
14:08:30 spatel sean-k-mooney: ^^
14:08:37 spatel I need your 5 min
14:08:51 bauzas stephenfin: so, this is a non-breaking change for no CPU-related config, I agree
14:09:02 stephenfin (we now only report the online ones since it was a bug to report offline ones)
14:09:10 stephenfin 'vcpu_pin_set' -> report all host CPUs listed in this option as VCPU
14:09:11 bauzas I agree
14:09:20 bauzas stephenfin: that said, a reno file would be good
14:09:27 stephenfin I thought I had one?
14:09:53 stephenfin https://review.opendev.org/#/c/671793/16/releasenotes/notes/cpu-resources-d4e6a0c12681fa87.yaml ?
14:10:00 mriedem lyarwood: while you're doing stable reviews, can you hit this rocky regression? https://review.opendev.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/nova+branch:stable/rocky+topic:bug/1839560
14:10:04 bauzas stephenfin: sorry, I meant some notes saying we now only report 'active' CPUs
14:10:10 stephenfin ohh, yeah
14:10:14 sean-k-mooney spatel: im just getting back from lunch was about to make coffee whats the issue?
14:10:34 stephenfin bauzas: alex_xu and I discussed that earlier. I said I'd add a follow-up reno, yeah
14:10:34 bauzas anyway, back to the interesting case
14:10:45 stephenfin Was considering making it a bug but we're not going to backport this so meh
14:10:47 bauzas cool then, just adding a comment while we speak on it
14:10:49 stephenfin *filing a bug
14:10:53 stephenfin ack
14:12:05 bauzas anyway, back to the case where people were playing with vcpu_pin_set and they were getting VCPUs
14:12:16 bauzas now, we're deprecating this option
14:12:20 artom mriedem, addressed your feedback in https://review.opendev.org/#/c/635669/ btw, Zuul failure doesn't look related, despite being in the live migration job
14:12:44 bauzas stephenfin: deprecating it is good and that's what we agreed, but we should still report VCPUs, am I right?
14:12:53 mriedem artom: have you looked into why https://review.opendev.org/#/c/678887/13 is failing?
14:13:06 Roamer` mriedem, thanks for the +2 on the StorPool volume driver's native I/O change. Is there a chance it might get a +W too, or should I bother somebody else, or is it too late in the release cycle or something? it's a practically no-risk change (well, okay, obviously you'd have to trust us on that :))
14:13:22 mriedem Roamer`: takes 2 +2s so you have to find someone else
14:13:29 Roamer` mriedem, thanks
14:13:38 spatel sean-k-mooney: I have VM-1 now i want to build VM-2 on other compute nodes and want to do IP takeover
14:13:40 mriedem another core please see https://review.opendev.org/#/c/676172/
14:13:42 stephenfin bauzas: Yup, nothing changes from a placement perspective until you unset vcpu_pin_set and set cpu_dedicated_set or cpu_shared_set
14:13:44 sean-k-mooney bauzas: this bit has chagned in the last few days. if you set it we planned to report both vCPUs and pCPUs
14:13:51 lyarwood mriedem: ack will take a look now
14:13:52 artom mriedem, not yet, looking now
14:14:04 bauzas sean-k-mooney: that would have been a bug then
14:14:11 Roamer` so, yeah, anybody up for reviewing a trivial "add io=native to the StorPool volume driver" change? :) https://review.opendev.org/#/c/676172/
14:14:14 sean-k-mooney bauzas: what would
14:14:19 spatel I have tried to create fix-ip with neutron but its not letting me do that because of policy issue.
14:14:24 bauzas sean-k-mooney: given people were using vcpu_pin_set for pinning, we should stick with only VCPU in this case
14:14:40 sean-k-mooney bauzas: no that breaks upgrades
14:14:50 bauzas gosh
14:15:09 sean-k-mooney vcpu_pin_set defines the set of host cpu that can be used for pinned or floating vms
14:15:11 mriedem stephenfin: i never saw any operator replies to "More upgrade issues with PCPUs - input wanted" - i wonder if you should re-post that but tag with [nova] ?
14:15:17 bauzas sean-k-mooney: what breaks upgrades is having less VCPU between two releases with exact same config options
14:15:27 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: I think you're getting mixed up here
14:15:30 mriedem people, including myself, filter non-tagged things into a general folder and might have missed it b/c of all the noise
14:15:45 stephenfin mriedem: Good call. I need to reply with my resolution for that anyway
