12:13:15 sean-k-mooney songwenping_: i think that class path will only exist if you have mdevs allocated
12:13:38 sean-k-mooney songwenping_: but as i said you cant use ubuntu as a host os for nvida grid
12:14:03 sean-k-mooney i can be the guest os but nvidia does not make the host level driver availabel for ubuntu
12:17:07 songwenping_ sean-k-mooney: yeah, i have allocated mdevs and i reinstall vgpu-kvm package.
12:17:55 sean-k-mooney songwenping_: where did you get the package for ubuntu?
12:18:38 songwenping_ nvidia official website
12:18:49 songwenping_ NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-440.107-vgpu-kvm.run
12:19:07 sean-k-mooney https://docs.nvidia.com/grid/10.0/product-support-matrix/index.html
12:19:19 sean-k-mooney according to that ubnuntu is not supported as a host os
12:20:05 songwenping_ the path is /sys/class/mdev_bus/0000\:af\:00.0/mdev_supported_types/ generate, but nothing in it.:(
12:20:42 sean-k-mooney your going to have to talk to nvidia about that
12:22:27 sean-k-mooney the offical nividia doc which was last update on the 21st of august says ubunut is not supported i think you install the ubunut guest driver on the host
12:22:28 songwenping_ sean-k-mooney, bauzas: thanks a lot. i'll try to use ubuntu guest.
12:22:57 openstackgerrit Yao wang proposed openstack/nova master: Use VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE for detach volume https://review.opendev.org/749489
12:36:59 bauzas songwenping__: FWIW, for nvidia specific issues like it, please look at their documentation for vGPUs https://docs.nvidia.com/grid/latest/grid-vgpu-user-guide/index.html#grid-vgpu-introduction
12:37:36 bauzas the openstack community is not an nvidia support team :p
12:46:04 openstackgerrit Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova stable/queens: Add regression tests for bug #1889108 https://review.opendev.org/749232
12:46:04 openstackgerrit Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova stable/queens: compute: Don't delete the original attachment during pre LM rollback https://review.opendev.org/749233
12:46:05 openstack bug 1889108 in OpenStack Compute (nova) train "failures during driver.pre_live_migration remove source attachments during rollback" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1889108 - Assigned to Lee Yarwood (lyarwood)
12:47:07 stephenfin jkulik: sure, done
13:46:04 openstackgerrit Stephen Finucane proposed openstack/nova master: WIP: Resolve issues with various HTTP status codes https://review.opendev.org/749505
13:46:43 stephenfin gmann, sean-k-mooney, gibi: There's a potential solution to our "no microversion in Victoria" conundrum ^ If that's not completely bonkers, I could probably finish it today
13:47:02 stephenfin though, in fairness, it probably is completely bonkers :)
13:47:13 gibi stephenfin: ack, will look.
13:47:33 stephenfin fair fair
13:51:35 bauzas gibi: sean-k-mooney: /me needs help of a network specialist
13:52:44 gibi bauzas: I'm not sure I can help but ask :)
13:53:14 bauzas gibi: for instance create, we're passing requested_networks here https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/b5d48043466b53fbdfe7b93c2e4efd449904e593/nova/compute/api.py#L954
13:53:37 bauzas it's a NetworkRequestList object
13:54:06 sean-k-mooney :)
13:54:13 bauzas https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/b5d48043466b53fbdfe7b93c2e4efd449904e593/nova/objects/network_request.py#L30
13:54:46 bauzas so I can try to add a new field in some object that would be NetworkRequestList
13:54:47 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: our you could just add a microverion for the api removal too
13:55:02 bauzas sean-k-mooney: gibi: for example, directly the RequestSpec
13:55:03 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: it would be no-op though
13:55:22 bauzas sean-k-mooney: gibi: but if so, I need to use the same for the other move operations
13:55:24 sean-k-mooney well no after the version you would get 404 for the apis
13:55:38 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: ill take a look at your patch after bauzas thing
13:55:45 stephenfin right, but before the version you'd get nothing too
13:55:48 bauzas sean-k-mooney: gibi: but then, we no longer have NetworkRequests, just VIF objects
13:55:53 stephenfin since XenAPI is gone and those things only worked with XenAPI
13:56:16 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: oh i guess ya
13:56:17 gibi bauzas: yeah, so for boot you have network request for move you have either the cache or you can ask neutron for the bound ports of the instance
13:56:19 bauzas sean-k-mooney: gibi: so I wonder if I can create a new NetworkRequest object by using a VIF object
13:56:40 gmann stephenfin: ack, I will check in afternoon
13:56:53 bauzas sean-k-mooney: gibi: like we do in https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/b5d48043466b53fbdfe7b93c2e4efd449904e593/nova/objects/request_spec.py#L547
13:57:24 sean-k-mooney the vifs would have everything expction the pci_request_id i think
13:57:26 bauzas sean-k-mooney: gibi: tbc, what's the difference between a VIF object and a NetworkRequest one
13:58:03 bauzas sean-k-mooney: right, see https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/b5d48043466b53fbdfe7b93c2e4efd449904e593/nova/network/neutron.py#L3064-L3076
13:58:14 sean-k-mooney no tags or pci requests https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/network/model.py#L380-L404
13:58:17 gibi I never tried to diff them, but I honeslty affraid of cached data as it might be stale
13:58:24 sean-k-mooney but it will have the network id and port id
13:59:08 gibi I might try to recreate the network request from neutron
13:59:21 bauzas gibi: do we persist it ?
13:59:26 sean-k-mooney bauzas VIF object are constructed form the info we get back form neutron
13:59:46 sean-k-mooney so they dont exist untill that point
13:59:57 sean-k-mooney the newtork request obejct are created in the api
14:00:04 sean-k-mooney based on the inital boot request
14:00:13 gibi bauzas: I think we persist the info_cache but I can be mistaken
14:00:21 sean-k-mooney yes
14:00:30 sean-k-mooney they are only persited in the info cache
14:00:39 sean-k-mooney they are also not ovo by the way
14:00:48 bauzas okay, I think we just need network_id
14:01:02 bauzas so this should work
14:01:13 sean-k-mooney yep so the VIF has a network subobject
14:01:19 bauzas ie. having a nested object be NetworkRequestList
14:01:25 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/network/model.py#L332
14:01:34 sean-k-mooney which has the network id
14:01:58 sean-k-mooney bauzas: but just to be clear this will only work for migrations
14:02:02 bauzas and when moving, valuing this field like we do for https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/objects/request_spec.py#L538 by using the VIFs objects from instance info cache
14:02:12 sean-k-mooney it will likely not work for new spawns
14:02:28 bauzas sean-k-mooney: yeah that works, because we directly have the NetworkRequest objects when spawning
14:02:38 sean-k-mooney for new spawns we dont populate the info cache untill the compute node
14:02:46 bauzas yup, that's not a problem
14:02:52 sean-k-mooney ok
14:03:02 bauzas okay, I can try to provide a new revision today then
14:03:04 bauzas thanks
14:03:22 gibi I'm OK recovering the network_id from the cache and then populate network metadata based on that
14:04:02 sean-k-mooney you will proably want to add a function on the network_metadata object to do that
14:04:21 bauzas sean-k-mooney: I don't want to modify the network_medata object
14:04:32 bauzas just the requestspec object or the destination one
14:04:41 sean-k-mooney well you could put it in the request_sep too
14:04:48 bauzas yup, either
14:04:49 sean-k-mooney which ever object your adding the filed too
14:05:02 sean-k-mooney just have a helper function to populated it
14:05:42 sean-k-mooney basically i would like that fucntion to be testable on its own is all im really asking for
14:05:51 sean-k-mooney so we dont have to do complicated mocking in unit tests
14:14:12 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: Provider Config File: Coding style and test cases improvement https://review.opendev.org/748939
14:40:14 lyarwood stephenfin: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/639934 LGTM, asked a quick question wrt to actual gate testing, I assume this isn't something we could wire up right now correct?
14:45:57 stephenfin looking
14:53:49 sean-k-mooney lyarwood: vtpm can be tested in the gate
14:54:21 sean-k-mooney we just need tempest tests with a new compute feature flag
14:54:45 sean-k-mooney to contol running them then we need to update devstack to install teh swtpm software and configure it
14:55:11 sean-k-mooney so it could be tested but we would need to do the automation
14:55:29 sean-k-mooney maybe this is somethign we can work with our qe folks to do
14:56:10 sean-k-mooney e.g. the tempest tests
14:56:53 sean-k-mooney extenting devstack is really just adding a new flag and apt/dnf instaling the package
14:56:53 lyarwood sean-k-mooney: wouldn't we need the clouds we are using to have vTPM enabled instances for us to passthrough?
14:57:01 lyarwood sean-k-mooney: or is it fully emulated
14:57:01 sean-k-mooney no
