#openstack-nova - 2021-09-07
09:07:42 kashyap I see
09:08:02 kashyap This seems to be a "forced" ABI break - because of an external vendor
09:08:06 kashyap But yeah, a break nonetheless
09:08:33 sean-k-mooney well yes they chose to do this to enable a new feature in the future
09:09:02 sean-k-mooney we adapted on master a long time ago and the backports where held on review bandwith for some time
09:09:23 sean-k-mooney now that they have actully landed we can do a realase for them
09:09:51 bbezak yesterday ussuri was merged, but I think older ones are still waiting for +2s
09:10:12 bbezak and/or rechecks
09:10:16 sean-k-mooney i think train was reviewed. i should now have stable branch rights so ill take a look
09:10:50 sean-k-mooney ah you are right
09:10:54 sean-k-mooney they are still pending
09:12:31 sean-k-mooney its in the governace repo
09:12:43 bauzas ok, then it's not needed
09:13:02 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/governance/blob/master/reference/runtimes/xena.rst
09:13:41 sean-k-mooney technically i guess these are minimume but 3.6-3.8 is what is tested
09:14:04 sean-k-mooney technially i think we can mostly run on 3.5
09:14:57 sean-k-mooney bbezak: i have rechecked the train version ill take a look at them again later today
09:15:22 sean-k-mooney bbezak: are you going to porpos a release to the git repo or would you like me to do that
09:17:40 bbezak sean-k-mooney: thx, I will try to propose git release for victoria/ussuri
09:45:02 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: DNM: check nova job results with placement transaction fix https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/807558
10:07:12 bbezak ussuri, victoria os-vif release has been proposed, as per docs - https://releases.openstack.org/reference/using.html#using-new-release-command. PTL needs to approve those, please take a look gibi:
10:07:15 bbezak https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/807694 https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/807696
10:17:36 sean-k-mooney gibi: i have reviewed both for those ^ and they look good to me. we dont have any other pending backports that i see that we should wait for
10:18:26 sean-k-mooney i have some patch for master that i plan to backport but we can do another release for those in a few weeks they are not urgent and release are pretty cheap so i have no issue with defering them for now
10:18:28 bauzas gibi: permission to rewite your cycle highligts for the prelude ?
10:39:49 gibi bauzas: grandted :)
10:40:06 gibi sean-k-mooney: I will check them soon
11:10:29 gibi bauzas: when you need some distraction there is two doc / reno patch up for review https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/807564 and https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/705667
11:25:21 gibi stephenfin, sean-k-mooney: I added a topic about tox.ini basepython pinning to the PTG etherpad https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-yoga-ptg L81
11:42:28 gibi lyarwood: if you have time I could use your oppinion on https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1942766
11:54:53 lyarwood gibi: yeah live and then persistent could be an option but ultimately a hard reboot would recover the situation so it's a `low` bug at best IMHO
11:55:37 gibi lyarwood: as the hard reboot will regenareate the xml from the db?
11:56:15 lyarwood gibi: correct it destroys the live domain and undefined the persistent domain before recreating everything based on what we have in the db
11:56:21 lyarwood undefines*
11:56:47 gibi cool, thanks
12:45:46 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Add more retries to TestMigrateFromDownHost tests https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/807714
12:52:41 gibi lyarwood: a further tuning on these tests ^^
12:52:59 gibi ohh I see you already checked
12:53:02 gibi thanks
12:53:08 lyarwood gibi: yup already reviewed, I did see a gate failure with this last week but didn't get time to look, thanks for sorting that again
12:53:35 gibi lyarwood: no problem, I like hunting down these :)
12:53:53 gibi and I think there is no way to avoid races sometime, nova is complex
12:53:54 lyarwood we all have our vices :D
12:54:03 gibi :D
13:35:55 bauzas man, I wish generated sphinx errors were simplier to debug with reno
13:40:49 kashyap bauzas: What's the error that's giving you grief?
13:41:10 bauzas /home/sbauza/git/openstack/nova/releasenotes/source/unreleased.rst:40: WARNING: Bullet list ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.
13:41:45 kashyap Ah, I've seen this enough no. of times that it is now written into my brain's ROM
13:42:30 bauzas also, running the tox releasenotes target takes a while
13:42:38 bauzas it's repopulating all the releases
13:48:32 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Avoid unbound instance_uuid var during delete https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/805605
14:28:38 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova master: fup: Print message logging uncaught nova-manage exceptions https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/807358
14:29:10 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova master: console: Improve logging https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/778407
14:31:10 gibi cores: do we support providing the adminPassword to the guest via the metadata service?
14:31:39 gibi I see that the metadata service trying to fetch the password from instance.system_metadata https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/402fe188b4e7ff76109e8a5ea1f24a5e915eaa09/nova/api/metadata/password.py#L37
14:31:52 gibi but I don't see we ever store the adminPassword there
14:32:31 gibi asking for due to https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1942709
15:50:53 gibi FYI: nova meeting starts in 9 minutes here in the channel
15:59:01 bauzas gibi: I'll be a bit late, daughter's homework helping
15:59:08 gibi ack
16:00:10 opendevmeet The meeting name has been set to 'nova'
16:00:10 opendevmeet Useful Commands: #action #agreed #help #info #idea #link #topic #startvote.
16:00:10 opendevmeet Meeting started Tue Sep 7 16:00:10 2021 UTC and is due to finish in 60 minutes. The chair is gibi. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot.
16:00:10 gibi #startmeeting nova
16:00:53 gibi o/
16:01:43 dansmith o/
16:03:31 gibi #topic Bugs (stuck/critical)
16:03:46 gibi no critical
16:03:50 gibi #link 13 new untriaged bugs (-4 since the last meeting): #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?search=Search&field.status=New
16:03:57 gibi we have 1 bugs marked with xena-rc-potential tag #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?field.tag=xena-rc-potential
16:04:03 gibi https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1942345 fix is going through the gate
16:04:33 gibi and we have the placement transaction scope issue https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2009159 that is being worked on in https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/807014
16:04:54 gibi I guess we should mark that as RC critical too
16:05:34 gibi I think melwitt's solution is OK but we cannot really make a reproduction test working in the functional env
16:05:40 gibi so I started running nova jobs against the fix
16:05:58 gibi in https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/807558
16:06:16 gibi so far the runs there are not producing the error
16:06:48 gibi so probably we will land that fix without the reproduction test
16:07:24 gibi is there any other bug we should consider as RC critical?
16:07:37 dansmith you're saying that we can't repro the failure in functional,
16:07:51 dansmith but that's kinda expected and normal for these kinds of load-based heisenbugs right?
16:08:25 gibi dansmith: yes, it is a race that is hard to reproduce in a clean env (it needs mysql and it needs parallel transactions)
16:08:29 bauzas dansmith: the problem is about mysql
16:08:34 dansmith gibi: yeah
16:08:36 bauzas hah, jinxed
16:08:55 bauzas difficult to write a correct parallel test
16:09:11 dansmith yeah, just sounded like gibi was expecting we wouldn't land until we had a repro test
16:09:18 dansmith and I'm saying I'd have expected that to be impossible
16:09:26 gibi we tried the repro test but we faild
16:09:32 gibi so I'm OK to land this without a repro
16:10:13 bauzas "I guess we should mark that as RC critical too" > yes, please
16:10:42 gibi bauzas: OK, I will. It is already in the tracking etherpad https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-xena-rc-potential
16:11:19 gibi so if there is no other bug for the RC then I have a question about https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1942709
16:11:35 gibi do we support providing the adminPassword to the guest via the metadata service?
16:11:40 gibi I see that the metadata service trying to fetch the password from instance.system_metadata
16:11:43 gibi https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/402fe188b4e7ff76109e8a5ea1f24a5e915eaa09/nova/api/metadata/password.py#L37
16:12:07 gibi but as far as I see we dont store the password in instance.system_metadata on master
16:12:20 gibi and I was not able to track down changes around this in the git history
16:13:05 dansmith I don't remember if this works with libvirt
16:13:09 dansmith I want to say no
