13:47:13 bauzas gibi: any notes you'd like to see in the prelude ?
13:47:46 gibi bauzas: I have nothing specific in my mind right now
13:48:04 gibi but I will do a scan of merged renos to get a view
13:48:07 stephenfin bauzas: have you noted that XenAPI is gone?
13:48:13 stephenfin that's merging as we spak
13:48:15 stephenfin *speak
13:48:23 bauzas gibi: I'll use your own cycle highlits as a base
13:48:30 bauzas stephenfin: ah, no, gtk
13:48:48 bauzas stephenfin: in general, I take a look at the main reno master page
13:48:58 bauzas so I'll see it, I guess ;)
13:49:00 gibi bauzas: cool
13:49:15 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: i started reviewin the xenapi removeal then stop as i realed it mainly just code deletion and lyarwood and gibi? had alredy reviewed most of it
13:49:49 sean-k-mooney im glad that is going to make it :)
13:50:33 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: you might be interested in https://review.opendev.org/#/c/748533/
13:51:08 sean-k-mooney didnt i reveiew an previous version
13:51:16 sean-k-mooney i do need to take another look
13:51:22 stephenfin oh, so you did
13:51:24 stephenfin my bad
13:51:36 sean-k-mooney no its good to remind me to look again
13:52:54 stephenfin https://review.opendev.org/745605 still needs to be respun too :)
13:53:15 sean-k-mooney oh the filters
13:53:21 sean-k-mooney actully ill go do that now
13:53:31 lyarwood sean-k-mooney: some additional review on these would also be good btw, slightly out of my area tbh https://review.opendev.org/#/c/746949/
13:53:40 lyarwood artom: ^ also if you have bandwidth
13:54:06 sean-k-mooney oh the fixture change
13:54:24 lyarwood and the series on top adding the actual tests
13:54:32 sean-k-mooney am yes are they mergeragbe after today/feature freeze
13:54:56 sean-k-mooney if so ill do the filter deprecation first then ill take a look at those
13:55:43 lyarwood ah yeah of course sorry
13:56:04 sean-k-mooney no its fine i really should have reviewd that series properly by now
13:56:10 sean-k-mooney i have been putting it off
13:56:51 sean-k-mooney mainly for lack of brain power and opertunity to sit down and do it properly
13:57:28 artom lyarwood, ah, yeah, I'm slowly working my way up that series
14:05:30 lyarwood artom: cool thanks, I was fine with the house keeping stuff up until that point FWIW, I just don't have the context to know if we are asserting the right things in the actual LM tests
14:07:33 artom lyarwood, ack
14:39:05 sean-k-mooney smcginnis: oh you create the non clinet lib stable branches already
14:39:09 sean-k-mooney that is good to know.
14:40:03 sean-k-mooney we have 2 patches for os-vif to backprot to stable/victoria but they are not merged on master yet and i was going to wait a little while to ensure we dont have any issue before mergeing them anyway
14:40:32 sean-k-mooney but i guess this means i dont strictly have to wait to rc1 for master to be open for wallaby in os-vif
14:41:09 sean-k-mooney sill going to hold off for a bit however
14:48:48 smcginnis sean-k-mooney: Yep, non-client library freeze was last week. So those are already done for victoria.
14:49:04 smcginnis Sneaks up quick.
14:53:50 sean-k-mooney oh ya i know i am just used to waiting till the main project reach rc1 for the master branch to reopen and stable brances to be created
14:54:14 sean-k-mooney smcginnis: but creating the branch early also works
14:54:45 sean-k-mooney smcginnis: also its nice to not have to manually do this in gerrit anymore although i guess i have not done that in a few releases at this point
14:55:24 smcginnis Unofficial projects would need to, but anything official should all be going through the releases repo.
14:55:42 sean-k-mooney yep
15:24:38 bauzas lyarwood: gibi: we don't have better docs for glance image cloning but a spec ? https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/victoria/approved/nova-image-download-via-rbd.html
15:26:39 gibi bauzas: there is an open doc patch https://review.opendev.org/#/c/731577/
15:27:20 bauzas uh ok
15:28:08 bauzas gibi: so we have 2 different things related to RBD
15:28:14 bauzas gibi: one is the glance multistore
15:28:16 gibi yes
15:28:24 bauzas the other being the precaching
15:28:29 gibi yes
15:28:36 bauzas honestly, I'd then write two different bullets
15:28:56 bauzas because most ops probably don't give a clue about what a glance multistore is
15:29:06 bauzas and both are independent
15:29:27 bauzas ie. you can precache with or without multistore, and the other way too
15:29:35 bauzas dansmith: amirite ?
15:30:02 dansmith precache in nova has nothing to do with glance multistore
15:30:32 bauzas that's what I understood
15:30:44 bauzas the rbd dowload, that's the precache, right?
15:30:55 dansmith no
15:31:01 bauzas holy shit then
15:31:04 bauzas I'm confused
15:31:22 dansmith the rbd download thing is just letting nova download the image direct from rbd instead of streaming it through glance, if it has access to the rbd that backs glance
15:31:49 bauzas ok, that's what I understood, but then what's precaching ?
15:32:04 bauzas oh
15:32:11 bauzas pulling it to libvirt cache?
15:32:30 bauzas whether you pull it thru Glance or from the RBD directly
15:32:34 bauzas correct ?
15:32:52 dansmith yes, just triggering the image cache to download the image, separately from an actual instance boot
15:32:58 bauzas ok
15:33:06 bauzas so, what was merged in V ?
15:33:14 bauzas from the notes, I see precaching
15:33:20 bauzas ah na
15:33:22 bauzas nvm
15:33:25 dansmith all of that is separate from the glance multistore support in nova :)
15:33:30 bauzas it's RBD download
15:33:37 bauzas precaching was a U thing
15:33:45 bauzas correct ?
15:33:57 bauzas U or T, I don't remind exactly
15:34:32 dansmith I think precaching was T yeah
15:34:33 dansmith sorry, U
15:35:14 sean-k-mooney so the two new things in V are the rbd direct download and seperate the multi store support
15:35:41 dansmith yes, but I'm not sure the rbd download thing is worth a special callout in the release notes, if that's what we're discussing here
15:35:57 sean-k-mooney in the prelude ya
15:36:14 bauzas dansmith: kk, now I understand, thanks
15:36:22 bauzas yeah, for the prelude, we'll see
15:36:34 bauzas we don't have a shit ton of new stuff, even a single microversion to provide
15:36:51 bauzas but I agree, this sounds just a small improvement
15:37:01 bauzas not worth a prelude
15:37:12 bauzas (even if that went somehow to the cycle highlights :p )
15:40:39 openstackgerrit Stephen Finucane proposed openstack/nova master: tox: Enable parallel docs build https://review.opendev.org/751034
15:42:03 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: cool i basically only did the tox.ini part of that locally and didnt really know what to do for the extentions
15:42:30 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: it won't work though. oslo.config is borked
15:42:56 stephenfin I've pushed a patch for it but it could be a while before it lands. It's a bug but also not massively high priority
15:42:57 sean-k-mooney oh so they actully are not parralel safe
15:43:07 stephenfin afraid not
