10:52:53 openstackgerrit Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova master: libvirt: Correctly resize encrypted LUKSv1 volumes https://review.opendev.org/706900
10:55:40 lyarwood sean-k-mooney: ^ removed run_as_root and made it clear that the new func is privileged
10:56:56 openstackgerrit Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova master: DNM - Test TEMPEST_EXTEND_ATTACHED_ENCRYPTED_VOLUME https://review.opendev.org/707593
10:58:22 bauzas stephenfin: will try
11:11:06 openstackgerrit Brin Zhang proposed openstack/nova master: Add new default roles in os-instance-actions policies https://review.opendev.org/706470
11:56:42 sean-k-mooney lyarwood: yep reviewing your series now
11:56:59 sean-k-mooney and ya its clearer what you are doing
12:02:14 lyarwood sean-k-mooney: ack thanks
12:11:26 lyarwood stephenfin: ^ when you have time later could you hit https://review.opendev.org/#/q/topic:bug/1861071 again, I'll rebase the followups once this lands now to avoid extra churn in the gate.
12:12:02 stephenfin sure. ping me again if I don't have it done by EOD :)
12:12:23 lyarwood sure thing
12:12:33 lyarwood and thanks obviously :)
12:19:27 sean-k-mooney lyarwood: i think i reviewed them all
12:19:46 sean-k-mooney it looks like the chain is broken into 3 seriese so they shoudl all be rebased back into one
12:20:30 sean-k-mooney or at least be rebased so they are update with the bottom 4 patches
12:30:23 lyarwood sean-k-mooney: yup, I'll rebase the rest later today, just switching to something else for a whil.e
12:46:39 brinzhang johnthetubaguy: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/706470/ I used your suggestion, that looks like ok for me, I was update that you can review again if you have time ^^
12:48:20 brinzhang gmann: you can review this patch, and move the problem from your list I asked before
13:06:38 luyao gibi: are you around?
13:07:10 openstackgerrit Brin Zhang proposed openstack/nova master: Granular GET os-instance-actions API policies https://review.opendev.org/711791
13:07:14 gibi luyao: hi!
13:08:07 luyao gibi: Would you like review the vpmem live migration support? I need someone help me confirm if the implementations is OK. :D
13:08:30 luyao https://review.opendev.org/#/q/topic:support-live-migration-with-virtual-persistent-memory+(status:open+OR+status:merged)
13:08:59 gibi luyao: sure. I can try. I have to finish the review of the cyborg integration first but then I can look at your series
13:11:42 luyao gibi: Thank you. looking forward for your comments. FYI. I don't add enough testcases now, if the implementation is acceptable, I'll do that.
13:12:12 gibi luyao: OK, I will keep that in mind
13:12:42 brinzhang luyao: I will tyr to check your patch tomorrow ^^
13:13:12 luyao brinzhang: Thanks, welcome. :D
13:13:37 brinzhang luyao: I already add that to me review list, and will do later
13:14:40 brinzhang We would like this feature
13:16:13 luyao brinzhang: Great.
13:26:17 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: [Community goal] Update contributor documentation https://review.opendev.org/712420
13:27:20 gibi stephenfin: ussuri community goal doc change ^^
13:27:30 gibi stephenfin: I feel you will have comments about it
13:53:13 openstackgerrit Sylvain Bauza proposed openstack/nova master: Pass allocations to virt drivers when reverting resize https://review.opendev.org/712118
14:16:55 dansmith gibi: thoughts on the vmware deprecation patch? I'm glad it got some attention raised, but we've been a long time without vmware ci and despite some response, I feel like we probably need a deadline or something to make sure something happens
14:17:50 dansmith I'm not even sure when the last time the vmware ci commented on a nova change, but I feel like it's been a *long* time
14:23:58 sean-k-mooney dansmith: we could merge the patch propose a revert and hold it until m3. if the ci is running by m3 we merge the revert if not then leave it
14:24:31 dansmith yep, we could also convert this to just a quality warning, merge that now, and hold the deprecation warning on the ci
14:24:35 dansmith which i think is what we did for xen
14:25:47 gmann brinzhang: i will check after coffee.
14:26:10 brinzhang gmann: cool, thanks
14:30:22 mriedem we merged the deprecation warning for xen in train, it wasn't contingent
14:33:36 dansmith okay when I was looking for examples, I found a "merge quality warning" for one of the drivers before a deprecation
14:33:46 gibi dansmith: we can merge a deprecation warning without causing extra problem to hemna and undeprecate if vmware ci magicly shows up
14:33:47 mriedem looks like dan's patch has at least gotten the necessary attention,
14:33:53 mriedem whether that holds or not i guess we'll see
14:34:15 dansmith gibi: ack, well, that's what I've got up, so maybe go vote on that :)
14:34:16 gibi the real break happens if we delete something
14:34:25 gibi dansmith: will do
14:34:32 mriedem yeah the people -1ing the change are saying "please don't delete it"
14:34:35 mriedem which isn't what the patch does
14:34:52 dansmith there has still been no progress in finding a maintainer for"
14:34:52 dansmith mriedem: I quote you: " After three months since the quality warning change merged [1]
14:34:55 mriedem they can -1 the patch to remove the driver in a later release if it gets to that point
14:35:19 dansmith https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/af280ffe3098b84123eae218989ea056e9935bf1
14:35:47 mriedem good thing i was so verbose in my commit messages :)
14:35:47 dansmith but I'd rather go straight to deprecation,
14:36:06 dansmith and then we can avoid removing it if CI shows up, and un-deprecate if it looks like CI will stick around
14:36:18 mriedem i think there is more than enough ammo for vmware deprecation based on repeated attempts in the ML to figure out what's going on with CI over the last several years,
14:36:58 dansmith agree, and like I said, I'd be kinda surprised if it really works in U after all the provider stuff
14:37:06 dansmith working in queens I totally believe
14:37:58 jkulik fyi, we (SAP) reached out to VMware to get a statement on their upstream approach. they weren't ready for one, yet.
14:38:05 mriedem i forget her name but i was sending emails about the lack of CI back when the old project manager was involved
14:38:10 dansmith IMHO, to keep it we need more than just CI too.. we need support for devstack problems, like the one referenced on the mailing list and general confidence that it's working for more than just trivial CI configurations
14:38:42 mriedem jkulik: as far as i know vmware hasn't had an "upstream" team in awhile
14:38:49 mriedem cdent was the last closest person to that for nova at least
14:39:01 dansmith and honestly, it has always been a fight to keep them involved, which is pretty exhausting
14:39:33 mriedem i'm sure that team would say it was exhausting dealing with us as well :)
14:39:45 mriedem "what do you mean my bug fix needs tests?!"
14:41:39 jkulik as far as I heard: yes, they found it exhausting.
14:41:48 mriedem heh
14:41:57 dansmith yeah I have no doubt
14:42:03 mriedem i mean, quality control, who needs it
14:42:04 mriedem psh
14:42:17 jkulik main problem seems to be, that they have their own product based on openstack which works fine for them
14:42:36 mriedem VIO
14:42:39 mriedem right?
14:42:40 jkulik yes
14:42:45 mriedem sure, with patches
14:42:46 dansmith and that's cool, but we don't need to keep a broken driver in our tree, especially with people asking on the ML why it doesn't work
14:42:53 mriedem so you buy that thing and you're stuck with them for support b/c of the patches
14:43:06 jkulik sure, they need to make money off it
14:43:12 jkulik otherwise everybody could just install openstack ;)
14:43:40 sean-k-mooney jkulik: our they could enforce an upstream first poicy for all freatres and backports
14:43:47 sean-k-mooney *or
14:43:57 jkulik which they obviously still make money from, because you'd still have VMware hypervisors and stuff
14:44:17 jkulik tbh, upstream first is hard.
14:44:50 sean-k-mooney it can be but its generally worth it. i thnik the quality of the final solution is typically better
14:45:24 sean-k-mooney but it is a higher barrier to entry for enableing a feature
14:45:26 jkulik I agree. But some things you can't upstream and once you're down that road, you're not that willing to upstream the rest.
14:45:29 mriedem depends on where you want to invest time and money, up front or on the backside dealing with maintaining a fork
14:46:28 dansmith jkulik: we're not arguing that they shouldn't have a downstream.. we're arguing that if they want their base in the upstream, there's a minimum bar and we're not going to do their maintenance for free, that's all
14:46:29 mriedem and getting the team culture in place for people that aren't used to having their code reviewed
14:46:29 dansmith we all make money from openstack one way or the other, nobody here doesn't recognize that
