17:22:47 kashyap melwitt: It looks like so; because I don't see the failure in this libvirtd log
17:22:58 kashyap And these copy failures are logged to libvirtd. So let me look in the other one
17:23:10 sean-k-mooney lyarwood: you should review gibis qos attach
17:23:16 sean-k-mooney series
17:23:20 melwitt kashyap: would there be a failure though? there was no error. it's just that the cursor never moved from the last block
17:23:41 kashyap melwitt: Not a failure per-se; but in Gate, we have libvirt log filters enabled
17:23:49 melwitt and the test timed out at the tempest level as a result of never seeing the 'available' status for the volume
17:23:50 sean-k-mooney lyarwood: im basically done with it and it looks ready to merge IMO
17:24:04 kashyap melwitt: ... so we should see more fine-grained info. And I was hoping to hurl a useful bit at one of the US-based libvirt developers :D
17:24:05 sean-k-mooney lyarwood: but it need a second core to review
17:24:17 melwitt kashyap: ack
17:25:10 kashyap melwitt: Oh, wait ... I first didn't see this error is _actually_ libvirt error. Looks like it's not
17:25:43 sean-k-mooney lyarwood: specifclly i was refering to https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:%22bp%252Fsupport-interface-attach-with-qos-ports%22+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged) if you are still lookign for somethign easy to review
17:26:15 melwitt kashyap: yeah it's not emitting an error afaik. it's just that we keep checking the job status and it shows it one block from the end and it stays that way for about 4 minutes and then we give up
17:28:38 kashyap melwitt: Have you got the instance name, please?
17:31:56 kashyap Found it
17:32:01 melwitt kashyap: uuid is 185d6573-58ee-47bc-8063-b447673db266, are you wanting the instanceNNNNNN id?
17:32:15 melwitt sorry, I was double checking whether I got the right one
17:32:29 kashyap melwitt: No-no; that's fine :-)
17:32:46 melwitt my eyes are like @_@
17:33:07 kashyap melwitt: Heh; urgh; my FF browser is hung
17:33:54 kashyap Also there's an unpleasant easter egg in there (I knew it before too): ".txt" files are actually *gzip* files that will devour your RAM, if you try open them in your browser
17:35:03 kashyap Alright it came back. And it's this: instance-00000013 (185d6573-58ee-47bc-8063-b447673db266). Let's see if there's anything useful
17:37:04 sean-k-mooney kashyap: that depend on which of the ci provider the logs are uploaded too
17:37:41 sean-k-mooney the rackspace cloud for reason has there swift cluster configured in such a way that it always compresses them but does not send the correct headers
17:37:48 sean-k-mooney for things like curl to work
17:42:51 kashyap I see
17:42:59 kashyap melwitt: So ... something interesting (at least to me) :-) --
17:43:21 kashyap I just extracted the exchange between libvirt and QEMU from the giant log here: https://kashyapc.fedorapeople.org/QMP_exchange_libvirtd_22Jan2021_NovaCI.txt
17:43:33 kashyap So ... the copy has actually *succeeded*. Here's the evidence:
17:43:46 kashyap - You `grep` for "blockdev-mirror" in there (at 2021-01-21 05:29:32.630+0000) -- that's the start of the copy job
17:44:29 kashyap - Then there's constant polling going on -- you'll see a lot of "io-status": "ok" going on there
17:44:58 kashyap - Finally, at 2021-01-21 05:34:24.571+0000
17:45:40 kashyap We get the "ready" flag (which means copy has completed: notice the values of 'len' and 'offset' are equal:
17:45:43 kashyap {"return": [{"auto-finalize": true, "io-status": "ok", "device": "copy-vdb-libvirt-5-format", "auto-dismiss": false, "busy": true, "len": 1073741824, "offset": 1073741824, "status": "running", "paused": false, "speed": 0, "ready": false, "type": "mirror"}], "id": "libvirt-843"}
17:46:40 kashyap melwitt: So, all I can say for now is the copy has succeeded. So I'm not sure why it's saying the copy is not progressing
17:47:49 kashyap melwitt: I'm out of neurons, and need to make some food ... we can continue the chat in the (future) bug
17:48:48 melwitt thanks kashyap, that's helpful. have a nice weekend o/
17:51:05 kashyap (I think it can't progress because it has reached the end of the copy -- the value in the error matches what I posted above: 1073741824. Hm, needs further digging.)
17:51:13 kashyap Have a good weekend, you too!
17:51:56 melwitt kashyap: yeah it seems the job_status api is returning the wrong thing then, or such
17:52:37 melwitt get_job_info https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/libvirt/guest.py#L863-L873
17:58:01 lyarwood is it just a race?
17:58:26 lyarwood but did libvirtd log the job as finished after n-cpu had already given up?
18:10:36 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Replace blind retry with libvirt event waiting in detach https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/770246
18:11:13 melwitt lyarwood: I will check
18:15:54 gibi have a nice weekend folks! o/
18:16:01 lyarwood and you gibi \o
18:16:16 lyarwood o/ all
18:16:19 sean-k-mooney o/
18:17:05 melwitt lyarwood: interesting, it looks like in libvirtd log it shows current == end but what we get in nova when we query is not, it's current == end - 1
18:17:29 melwitt lyarwood: and also o/
18:18:52 sean-k-mooney gibi: finished reviewing you qos series, +1 on most of it but left two -1s nothing major just look to confirm detach will work too and a minor issue with comments
18:19:22 sean-k-mooney gibi: but ya enjoy your weekend
18:26:15 gmann lbragstad: 1 comment on this https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/760240/15/placement/tests/functional/gabbits/resource-provider-legacy-rbac.yaml#20
18:27:11 gmann lbragstad: we should check all persona for legacy policy also.
18:27:22 gmann basically checking all those tokens with enforce_scope false and true
18:27:42 sean-k-mooney ok im going to finish there too o/
18:30:05 lbragstad gmann ok - i was thinking you only wanted testing for the default personas that were supported prior to secure RBAC?
18:30:34 lbragstad gmann does nova test system personas and reader personas with enforce_scope=False and enforce_new_defaults=False?
18:30:45 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova-specs master: Update spec for configurable-instance-hostnames https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/772065
18:31:05 gmann lbragstad: yeah we test all those with all those combination of config
18:31:38 gmann lbragstad: is there any admin-or-owner rule?
18:31:58 lbragstad for placement?
18:32:03 gmann yeah
18:32:14 gmann for nova I added all persona to check owner thing basically
18:32:20 lbragstad no - all of placement was protected with rule:admin_api which just checks role:admin essentially
18:32:56 gmann ok, in that case system-admin will also be able to access if enforce_scope is false
18:33:09 gmann as no project-id is checked there
18:33:36 lbragstad correct - system-admin will be able to access placement APIs
18:34:42 gmann admin is ok but reader we can make sure if new reader (project or system) cannot access in case of enforce_scope=false because we care changing the check_str to system_reader
18:35:02 gmann does it make sense?
18:35:31 sean-k-mooney we generally dont want project admins to be able to access placment by the way
18:35:50 sean-k-mooney and im not sure domain admins should eb able to either
18:36:30 sean-k-mooney plamcnet is one of those things that really only system admins should have access too
18:36:37 gmann sean-k-mooney: with new policy rigtht?
18:36:49 sean-k-mooney well system member would be ok too
18:36:53 sean-k-mooney gmann: yep
18:36:54 gmann yeah. that is lbragstad change does
18:37:10 gmann legacy Admin to SYSTEM_ADMIN
18:37:14 sean-k-mooney basically we need to enforce system scope
18:37:22 sean-k-mooney ya
18:37:35 gmann yeah
18:37:50 lbragstad well - there was a note in placement about exposing the usage API to project users
18:38:02 sean-k-mooney there may be uses for system reader or system member/user at somepoint
18:38:05 lbragstad from when mriedem refactored placement's policy enforcement and moved default policies into code
18:38:23 lbragstad stephenfin thought we should address that comment while we're in there mucking with the secure RBAC changes...
18:38:31 sean-k-mooney lbragstad: well currenlty plamcnet is not recommended to be exposed to endusers at all
18:39:06 sean-k-mooney at least in a public cloud case its provide a view into your infrastucre that you dont want normal tenants to have
18:39:22 lbragstad ok - in that case we should let stephenfin know? i'm assume i'm the person with the least amount of placement context
18:39:54 lbragstad https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/771964/1
18:40:24 sean-k-mooney there is perhaps a usces with unified limits
18:40:42 sean-k-mooney where if we are counting quots with lmits some endpoint might be ok
18:40:58 sean-k-mooney the RP endpoint and allocation candiates endpoint no
18:41:12 sean-k-mooney but looking an allocations for your instance might be ok
18:41:55 gmann but does not it give usages for requested project
18:41:57 sean-k-mooney each resouce provider has the hostname as its name so we cant allow project user to do an RP show for example
18:42:57 sean-k-mooney i though the usage endpoint was teh usage of an invetory
18:43:42 sean-k-mooney ok https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/placement/?expanded=list-usages-detail#list-usages
18:43:52 sean-k-mooney would be ok for project users
