#openstack-nova - 2022-07-07
11:27:50 sean-k-mooney ok its because we have linuxbrdge in the default mech drivers in those jobs in addtion to ovs
11:33:11 sean-k-mooney ok i sent a mail to the list please hold of recheks in nova until i fix this
11:33:45 sean-k-mooney ill file a gate bug then fix the job configs and reference the neuton change that broke things in the commit once i find it
11:43:16 sean-k-mooney https://bugs.launchpad.net/os-vif/+bug/1980948
11:43:35 sean-k-mooney or https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1980948
11:43:44 sean-k-mooney im going to use the same bug for both and fix both
11:49:49 opendevreview sean mooney proposed openstack/nova master: update nova-next and nova-ovs-hybrid-plug to disable linuxbridge https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/848948
11:56:45 opendevreview sean mooney proposed openstack/os-vif master: update ci since linuxbridge is now experimental https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/os-vif/+/848949
11:59:38 sean-k-mooney ci is still pendign but gibi stephenfin bauzas can you review those
13:05:47 gibi sean-k-mooney: +2 on both thanks for detecting and fixing it
13:09:44 sean-k-mooney gibi: thanks
13:14:15 TheJulia sean-k-mooney: and that requires finding time to do so, unfortunately
13:37:30 bauzas gibi: sean-k-mooney: sorry I got a network issue with my F36 upgrade :(
13:48:17 opendevreview Amit Uniyal proposed openstack/nova master: Adds check, if admin has set compute service down https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/848886
13:54:23 gibi bauzas: ack
14:36:56 Uggla gibi, can you keep some time for me tomorrow morning. I'm blocked with notification.
14:37:21 gibi Uggla: yes, I can. We can have a session.
14:38:22 gibi Uggla: I think I will be available from 10:00 CEST til 17:30 CEST tomorrow
14:38:32 Uggla gibi, great it will be good.
14:41:59 Uggla gibi, are you aware of any specific stuff regarding cells in TestInstanceNotificationSampleWithMultipleCompute ?
14:42:57 Uggla gibi, sorry my bad TestInstanceNotificationSample
14:46:23 gibi Uggla: cells in func test are coming from https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/512fbdfa9933f2e9b48bcded537ffb394979b24b/nova/test.py#L393-L419 when the compute service is created. As far as I see TestInstanceNotificationSample does not specify any cell so all compute is created in cell1 by default
14:52:38 gibi so if you need computes in different cells then you have to create compute services will cell_name parameter provided
15:10:21 opendevreview Merged openstack/os-vif master: update ci since linuxbridge is now experimental https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/os-vif/+/848949
16:07:33 sean-k-mooney[m] my laptop decided to power off
16:08:31 sean-k-mooney[m] im not sure why but im starting it again
16:16:36 bauzas sean-k-mooney1: our laptops are fun
16:17:08 bauzas I have a T14s with 8 CPUs but it's still playing worst than my old 8-year laptop
17:09:11 opendevreview Rajesh Tailor proposed openstack/nova stable/yoga: Remove return from rpc cast https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/848993
20:46:57 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova master: update nova-next and nova-ovs-hybrid-plug to disable linuxbridge https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/848948

04:58:36 opendevreview Amit Uniyal proposed openstack/nova master: Adds check, if admin has set compute service down https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/848886
07:34:47 bauzas good Friday Nova
08:04:10 Uggla bauzas, hello did you upgrade to F36 ?
08:04:17 bauzas yup
08:04:31 bauzas had an issue with my network, but this was on me
08:05:00 bauzas my perf issues with Wayland and any video stream eating all my CPU aren't fixed
08:05:51 bauzas I have to try to see whether I could use hardware acceleration (I have an intel gpu) for those streams
08:06:01 bauzas intel soc I mean
08:06:53 Uggla bauzas, any diff if you use xorg ?
08:07:06 bauzas Uggla: haven't tested yet
08:07:18 bauzas but I need a reproducible test
08:07:28 bauzas I'll use webrtc
08:07:47 bauzas sar gives me a lot of information
08:08:07 bauzas but this is clear this is just a CPU-bound task, that's it
08:08:12 bauzas not a lot of context switching
08:08:24 bauzas my sys % is high, about 20%
08:08:30 bauzas and user % is about 60%
08:08:36 bauzas so I straced
08:08:41 bauzas and I see lots of polling
08:08:47 gibi good morning
08:09:31 Uggla bauzas, mine is also slow sometime when it is getting hot. I think the cooling system is a bit limited.
08:09:36 Uggla gibi, o/
08:09:49 bauzas Uggla: good point, I should dig sar's power information
08:10:12 gibi d
08:10:12 gibi Uggla: give me 20 mins and I'm all yours if neede
08:10:17 bauzas and yeah, in general, my fan is yelling
08:10:44 bauzas I suspected that the CPU is stepping down
08:10:51 bauzas hence the perf issues
08:11:05 bauzas but that's a guess
08:11:06 Uggla bauzas, in such case, I can not switch the power balance to performance, it sticks to balanced.
08:11:24 bauzas Uggla: me too, can't modify it
08:11:46 bauzas this is like I was running my laptop unplugged
08:11:59 bauzas which shouldn't be the rule
08:12:22 bauzas if my laptop is plugged, I shall expect max performance and CPU power not stepping down
08:12:47 bauzas but yeah, haven't checked the temperature
08:12:56 bauzas you make me realize a thing
08:13:13 bauzas I think my fan was yelling because the CPU was intensively high
08:13:17 bauzas thought*
08:13:24 bauzas but that could be the contrary
08:13:40 bauzas if the temperature rises, then the fan yells and then the CPU could step down
08:14:11 bauzas all of this seems tied to Fedora power management tools
08:14:37 bauzas but yeah, needs a reproducer to validate
08:14:54 bauzas Uggla: either way, I was having performance trouble with F35 already
08:15:00 bauzas so F36 isn't a regression
08:15:28 Uggla bauzas, I think it is what happened in my case. And that's dramatically long when you run the openstack tests suite.
08:16:10 bauzas point is, the TB3 system doesn't help
08:16:20 bauzas previously with my other laptops, those were docked
08:16:33 bauzas so the fan was having room for air
08:16:52 bauzas now, with the tb3 plug, the laptop is just sit down
08:16:54 Uggla clearly
08:17:42 bauzas will continue to dig into it
08:17:50 bauzas there are actions I could do
08:17:57 bauzas and I'd like to verify
08:18:25 bauzas maybe the cooling system is sufficient and this is only Fedora which is too much conservative in terms of power consumption
08:18:40 bauzas having the fan burning isn't a problem
08:18:52 bauzas that's the CPU stepping down which is an issue
08:19:32 Uggla yep I think so as well.
08:19:46 gibi I also have perf issues with google meet (on T14, debian sid, xorg, i3, chrome). During our calls sometimes chrome starts to hogg the CPU and the audio and video starts lagging, and clipping. I haven't figured out yet what triggers the CPU hogging
08:20:28 gibi but as CPU get hot, thermal throttling kicks in and worsen the situation
08:21:10 Uggla gibi, welcome to the club :)
08:21:20 gibi then after 1 minute chrome stops hogging the CPU and after an additional minute google meet audio/video recovers
08:21:47 gibi I suspect that in my case it is chrome that does something crazy
08:23:40 Uggla bauzas, maybe we should have a look to firmware as well.
08:24:22 Uggla *has
08:25:13 Uggla gibi, have you a moment to look at my issue ?
08:25:20 gibi yes, I'm ready now
08:25:47 gibi lets test some google meet ;)
08:25:53 Uggla yep
08:25:54 Uggla :)
08:34:22 bauzas ok, I tuned sar to report my CPU clock freq
