| 16:10:15 | Uggla | #link 955657: Preserve vTPM state between power off and power on | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/955657 | |
| 16:11:35 | Uggla | Concerning the later one, jssfr woould like reviews or feedbacks. | |
| 16:12:12 | tkajinam | regarding the first one, I've addressed initial feedback by Uggla and appreciate reviews | |
| 16:13:04 | Uggla | tkajinam, I did not manage to spend a lot of time on it. But I'll try to do it before the end of the week. | |
| 16:13:43 | tkajinam | thx | |
| 16:13:51 | tkajinam | I'm concerned that it might be too tricky to be merged in a few days, but any opinion about possibility to get FFE would be also appreciated. | |
| 16:16:11 | Uggla | There are not a lot of patches so maybe it will be possible. | |
| 16:16:26 | Uggla | Anyway we will see. | |
| 16:16:31 | tkajinam | yup | |
| 16:16:49 | Uggla | moving on to next topic | |

| 16:18:25 | Uggla | elodilles, I give you the mic. | |
| 16:18:32 | elodilles | thanks | |
| 16:18:39 | elodilles | #info stable branches (stable/2025.1 and stable/2024.*) seem to be in OK state | |
| 16:18:52 | elodilles | #info stable branch status / gate failures tracking etherpad: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-stable-branch-ci | |
| 16:19:15 | elodilles | and that's all (plus i'm going to prepare the new stable release patches) | |
| 16:19:35 | elodilles | Uggla: back to you | |
| 16:19:59 | Uggla | thx elodilles | |
| 16:20:06 | elodilles | np | |
| 16:22:05 | Uggla | I'm going to skip next topic due to pto. | |
| 16:22:13 | Uggla | #topic Gibi's news about eventlet removal. | |
| 16:22:15 | gibi | o/ | |
| 16:22:23 | Uggla | #link Blog: https://gibizer.github.io/categories/eventlet/ | |
| 16:22:30 | gibi | Both n-sch and n-api and n-metadata API patches landed so these services can be switched to native threading and nova-next is running them that way already on all patches. My large series is now for the unit test fixes but that can wait. | |
| 16:22:48 | gibi | There is a bunch of small patches that I want to promote to land: | |
| 16:22:56 | gibi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/957424 Ask for pre-prod testing for native threading | |
| 16:23:01 | gibi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/947260 Remove nova.service.process_launcher | |
| 16:23:05 | gibi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/950991 Centralize cooperative yield | |
| 16:23:09 | gibi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/950992 [hacking] N374 do not use time.sleep(0) to yield | |
| 16:23:14 | gibi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/954990 Remove eventlet timer from multi_cell_list | |
| 16:23:36 | Uggla | \o/ | |
| 16:23:37 | gibi | and tomorrow is pulic holiday here so I will not be able to run the weekly eventlet sync call | |
| 16:23:53 | gibi | so feel free to skip it or do it without me | |
| 16:24:22 | gibi | I know Kamil updated the nova-conductor series after my feedback but I had no time to go back to it yet | |
| 16:24:30 | gibi | that is all from me | |
| 16:24:33 | gibi | back to you Uggla | |
| 16:24:45 | Uggla | Cool thanks Gibi ! | |

| 19:28:25 | gibi | melwitt: dansmith: responded in https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/942502/13#message-cf59c0d4f875b19c85c544c81fa76210786ca184 | |
| 19:28:48 | gibi | unfortunately I had less time today for this than I wanted and I will be away until next Monday. | |
| 19:35:02 | gibi | anyhow I lean towards using the host level default temporarily if possible. I offered some suggestion how. | |
| 19:36:24 | melwitt | thank you gibi. I will read through | |
| 19:41:38 | dansmith | melwitt: I don't have the brain power to think this through completely right now, so let me muse here in semi-persistent land | |
| 19:41:51 | dansmith | something gibi mentioned makes me think... | |
| 19:42:15 | dansmith | we're kinda depending on the scheduler doing the right thing for much of the enforcement of the policy (maybe more than I'd like even, as I noted, but alas) | |
| 19:42:37 | dansmith | maybe the better thing here is to think about the reqspec as the authoritative thing instead of sysmeta | |
| 19:43:36 | dansmith | like maybe we have a default (configurable or just default to host) or we require a policy on the flavor/image for new instances | |
| 19:44:02 | dansmith | and we just stamp it into the sysmeta on the way down | |
| 19:44:29 | dansmith | and handle the migration of existing instances differently.. either: | |
| 19:44:55 | dansmith | 1. stamp them as user and make them resize if they want "out". That's somewhat fitting in that right now the flavor they booted with doesn't have migrate ability, resize to a flavor that does fixes the problem | |
| 19:45:34 | dansmith | 2. make hard reboot pass down a default *or* have some other way for them to stamp a policy (either choice or agree to the default) | |
| 19:46:17 | dansmith | and then just focus on reqspec being the authoritative thing and sysmeta just becomes basically the write-once-read-many record of what was chosen so we know where to find a secret, but never change it (at the compute level) | |
| 19:50:40 | melwitt | I will need to think through these ... and I note that it feels like most of the spec is being rewritten (and the implementation thusly rewritten). not sure if this can realistically make FF :/ | |
