11:59:05 opendevreview Takashi Kajinami proposed openstack/placement master: Drop db migration tool https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/932324
12:02:05 tkajinam ^^^ I wonder if we can drop the migration script directly or we need deprecation step (I feel like no one may use it from master so direct removal doesn't annoy real users)
12:22:49 sean-k-mooney tkajinam: i assuem we have a placement-manage db_sync command so it shoudl not be in use but im not sure. i have never checked that
12:23:06 sean-k-mooney oh
12:23:20 sean-k-mooney this is the tool to migrate form in nova placment to split out placemnet
12:23:57 sean-k-mooney that a good question we have not requried this for so long that enven the unmaintaiend brances shoudl not need it
12:24:09 sean-k-mooney so i feel like a direct removal would be ok
12:24:53 sean-k-mooney we are talking about somethign that shoudl have been done when upgrading to stien so i dont think deprecation of a shel script really shoudl be required at this point
12:42:54 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Revert "Test live migration between hosts with differnet cpu_shared_sets" https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/932327
12:43:13 gibi sean-k-mooney: ^^ revert to stabilize CI
12:43:30 sean-k-mooney gibi: ah yep thanks i ment to do that for two weeks now and have been putting it off
12:43:53 sean-k-mooney it fiail infrequetly but it will increase as more raxflex host come online
12:43:57 gibi I got hit by it twice in a row so got enough motivation to at least push the revert
12:44:29 sean-k-mooney do we need another to +w i added +2
12:44:43 gibi bauzas: could you put a +w to ^^
12:44:54 gibi it is a revert for CI stablization
12:44:59 bauzas okay
12:45:16 sean-k-mooney ill be changign which jobs to what anyway when i get time to work on this again
12:45:45 gibi thanks
12:55:31 tkajinam sean-k-mooney, yeah that's the tool to pull placement tables from old nova db.
17:19:01 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova master: Revert "Test live migration between hosts with differnet cpu_shared_sets" https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/932327
18:50:07 melwitt sean-k-mooney: you had mentioned that scatter_gather_cells is not currently waiting for timeout in the main thread but I thought it is? this is using the eventlet.timeout.Timeout context manager in the main thread right? https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/741e1b38705efecc083f091c51164b3cafb9697c/nova/context.py#L437
19:07:47 dansmith melwitt: I think in uwsgi mode it can't since we're not running the eventlet hub right?
19:08:14 dansmith IIRC that's what sean-k-mooney was referring to.. it "waits" but the timeout will never fire in fully uwsgi mode
19:08:18 melwitt dansmith: oh, ok I didn't realize that was why
19:08:45 melwitt I see. thanks
22:11:48 sean-k-mooney[m] it was related to a comment gibi made
22:14:09 sean-k-mooney ... peopel changed my topic
22:15:00 sean-k-mooney melwitt: i was refering to this comment thread https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/905284/comment/ea51fb75_6013c0cd/
22:15:53 sean-k-mooney im pretty sure that the entire query_wrapper can go away and the timeout logic can move as we only use it for one thing
22:17:24 sean-k-mooney its been a month since i looke at it but i think i was leaning towards puting the timeout here https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/01b207e50d307a7e7650b5839535fbd3ad40bc1b/nova/context.py#L421 or https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/01b207e50d307a7e7650b5839535fbd3ad40bc1b/nova/compute/multi_cell_list.py#L262
22:17:52 melwitt sean-k-mooney: I remember that thread but I didn't realize that today the timeout doesn't work because of no eventlet hub in full uwsgi mode
22:18:35 sean-k-mooney im not sure if that is true or not
22:19:08 sean-k-mooney when run under uwsig today we are monkey patching so i think we have a hub but honestly i have not looked at that in a long time
22:19:31 sean-k-mooney we were not starting the hub at one point
22:19:47 sean-k-mooney but i think matt booth changed that as a bugfix?
22:20:47 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/3c5e2b0e9fac985294a949852bb8c83d4ed77e04
22:21:48 melwitt ok well ... if the timeout context manager works then it seems to me the timeout is in the right place in today's code (in the main thread and kills the child threads if the timeout fires). and I'm not making an opinion about where the timeout should go as part of eventlet removal
22:22:32 sean-k-mooney so i htink the issue is the timeout fires on the main thread but does not kill the child threads
22:23:02 sean-k-mooney again i dont currently have the context loaded form gibi's testing but i blieve we need the timeout to fire on the child thread?
22:23:51 melwitt I thought gibi was testing with native threads not eventlet?
22:24:19 sean-k-mooney yes but with this patch we are using native treads too
22:24:20 melwitt yeah, gibi's comment is about the code proposed in your patch
22:24:34 sean-k-mooney right that is what i was brignin up today
22:24:55 melwitt ok, maybe I misunderstood what you said. I thought you said the timeout doesn't work at all today
22:25:08 sean-k-mooney when we remove eventelte we need to ensure the timeout still works for the treads in the tread pool
22:26:13 sean-k-mooney baisicly what we want to have happen is if the timout expires we want the thread to be killed and clean up by the timeout expction when resumed by the kernel
22:26:29 melwitt right. I had thought you were commenting on what's in tree right now. I misunderstood that you were talking about future stuff, my bad
22:26:50 sean-k-mooney by startign the timer in the child thread if we dont get io before it expires then the kernel shoud resume it whtn the timer interupt fires
22:27:16 sean-k-mooney no worries, ya i was talking about the unresolved comments in the current series
22:27:49 melwitt I agree the timer needs to be in the child thread with native threads
22:27:51 melwitt we don't have the ability anyway to kill them from the parent
22:27:55 melwitt *them = native threads
22:28:02 melwitt ok, gotcha. sorry about that
22:28:57 sean-k-mooney right fi we used processes we could but because native thread could be holding locks (even if this is not) it would be unsafe to kill them form the parent even if we coudl do that without hacks
22:29:48 melwitt right
22:30:54 sean-k-mooney the other thing i brought up is https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/console/websocketproxy.py#L169-L172
22:31:43 sean-k-mooney the nova/cmd moduels for the proxy dont call eventlet but we do import that moduel here https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/904424/13/nova/cmd/standalone/baseproxy.py#29
22:32:05 melwitt ah, yeah. that one I haven't known what it's for, none of the work I did on the proxy was related to it
22:32:35 sean-k-mooney so it was added by https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/cb25bc4530323aaa33d5c42eb01f998d463f2106
22:33:25 sean-k-mooney which is apprently for https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1193031
22:33:57 melwitt oh, huh.
22:34:06 sean-k-mooney The solution is to either not monkey_patch for /cmd/nova-novncproxy and do the rpc call that validates the token with the consolauth service in a separate process that is monkey_patched (the rpc won't work without it), or to make openstack/common/rpc/amqp/multicall not use green-threads for this particular call (ie. block the caller).
22:34:19 sean-k-mooney so consolauth is dead
22:34:26 sean-k-mooney and we are trying to not monkeypatch
22:34:39 sean-k-mooney so maybe we just delete that and we are good?
22:35:50 melwitt delete all of consoleauth? sure, what could go wrong
22:36:03 sean-k-mooney i ment the hub
22:36:12 sean-k-mooney but also didnt you remove the console auth service
22:36:19 sean-k-mooney we now do auth in the cell db
22:36:47 melwitt oh, the console auth service, yeah that is no longer used
22:37:51 melwitt for some reason I was thinking the db call but yeah that doesn't use rpc
22:38:24 sean-k-mooney well even if it did we could deal with this differently
22:38:45 melwitt oh wait, there is an rpc call for "validating the console port
22:39:50 melwitt https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/741e1b38705efecc083f091c51164b3cafb9697c/nova/console/websocketproxy.py#L133
22:40:00 melwitt that's the only one AFAICT
22:40:22 sean-k-mooney so we are changing the oslo messaging executor to threading
22:40:42 sean-k-mooney so im not sure it that will be a problem or not but ok this is somethign we need to test
22:42:32 melwitt ok, yeah. I would think it should work fine if you delete the hub at the same time as the switch to native threads in oslo.messaging. I agree, definitely something to test
22:43:53 sean-k-mooney that is tomorrows problem o/
22:44:20 melwitt yes o/
23:14:16 sean-k-mooney[m] so i reinstalled my home openstack and entirly redidi my sotrage to use nova lvm instead of cinder lvm, most of the speedu is form other change but i wend form about an 80 minute devstack install to about 21 minutes
23:15:02 sean-k-mooney[m] im hoping with a liitlme more turning to shave another miniute or so but thats closer to the speed i would expect on this host
23:15:53 sean-k-mooney[m] i used to reliable be able to get a fresh vm deployed in about 18-20 mins so that pretty close already
23:19:52 sean-k-mooney[m] although there isnt much standing out as a bottle neck to be honest although i think i can speed up the disk io slightly more. beyond that i would likely need a local mirror/cache but the install time for package is already pretty good https://paste.opendev.org/show/825791/

07:17:07 gibi sean-k-mooney[m]: melwitt: I skimmed the discussion above above about the threading in scatter gather. Yes, my comment about the timer was only about the proposed native thread based code.
