| 08:22:20 | amorin_ | hello team, we used to tune api-paste.ini in nova, neutron etc. to enable some custom middleware in our platform. I will have to perform the same on placement, but AFAICS placement is not using paste-deploy so that wont be possible. Do you have a rough idea on the best way to achieve similar thing in placement? | |
| 08:29:33 | jkulik | amorin: iirc, you'd have to change the code. afaics, all middleware get loaded here: https://github.com/openstack/placement/blob/5e61583504c4911ac862e1d0f2d7eb79e37066d0/placement/deploy.py#L89-L117 | |
| 08:31:05 | amorin | oh nice! | |
| 08:31:26 | amorin | thank you for the hint | |
| 08:32:46 | gibi | amorin: agree with jkulik, unfortunately placement has no configurable way to add a middleware. I think it is a valid feature request if you want to change it | |
| 08:36:03 | gibi | gmaan: I explained why PS14 was not affected but 15 is affected by that unit test failure. I will respin and fix it today https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/966016/15#message-5e9654d20672cf2d1cbacf6d015cfecd9de5333e | |

| 09:26:33 | amorin | thank you gibi | |
| 11:07:20 | sean-k-mooney | gibi: so on paste deploy in general its not really maintianed anymore so there has been dicssion about what we will eventually replace ti with. teh way api-paste.ini works is slightly problemtaic in that no other repalcement really supprot that kind of configuablity so one of the propasl was to remove midelware customeisation entirly or implemen a subset of it in oslo.wsgi, | |
| 11:07:22 | sean-k-mooney | that the is the new oslo project stephenfin was proposing to hlep project move. | |
| 11:07:58 | sean-k-mooney | quite a few project like placement and watcher never supproted middleware customisation so adding sopport for that today kind fo feels like addign supprot for eventlet to a project | |
| 11:08:23 | sean-k-mooney | in its current form it woudl be adding technial debt that we may not be able to maintian in the long term | |
| 11:09:23 | sean-k-mooney | so it could be a posibel feature but its not one i woudl rush to implement unit we have a long term plan for what to do with the paste/past-deploy stack | |
| 11:10:58 | sean-k-mooney | one of the suggestion i hasd was ot replace it with an oslo.config list of midelware isntead in the service .conf file or similar but i dont know if there is any concreate propals in genarl beyond the mailing list dicussion that stpehn started last year | |
| 11:15:58 | gibi | sean-k-mooney: note that I did not advocated directly for paste.ini but just for configurable middleware. I'm fine selecting a tool that is futureproof for that. | |
| 11:17:09 | sean-k-mooney | ack. its not exacty hard to implent a parser for paste.ini to supprot that as well in general | |
| 11:17:46 | sean-k-mooney | just pointing out that there is technial debt in that area so commmiting to supproting past.ini in a project is less tirvial then it would be if it was activly maintianed | |
| 11:19:12 | gibi | ack, I still think that configurable middleware is a valid feature request for placement, while I agree that we should not implement it via paste.ini as in nova due to valid maintainability concerns you raised | |
| 11:25:22 | sean-k-mooney | the oauth midelwayre that had the cve is not enabled in nova sdefault piple lien is it? | |
| 11:25:41 | sean-k-mooney | i dont see it in https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/etc/nova/api-paste.ini although i dont really know what i should be lookign for | |
| 11:27:44 | sean-k-mooney | placement presumable does not use ExternalAuth2Protocol either? | |
| 11:28:06 | sean-k-mooney | well external_oauth2_token | |
| 11:30:45 | sean-k-mooney | https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystonemiddleware/+bug/2129018/comments/35 | |
| 11:31:05 | sean-k-mooney | gibi: https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystonemiddleware/+bug/2129018 is the tacker for it | |
| 11:31:18 | sean-k-mooney | it went public this week | |
| 11:32:49 | sean-k-mooney | based on zigo's comment would have to configure nova to accpate oauth2 tokens in the first place to enable the vulnerbale middlware | |
| 11:32:52 | sean-k-mooney | [pipeline:main] | |
| 11:32:54 | sean-k-mooney | pipeline = ext_oauth2_token | |
| 11:32:56 | sean-k-mooney | [filter:ext_oauth2_token] | |
| 11:32:58 | sean-k-mooney | paste.filter_factory = keystonemiddleware.external_oauth2_token:filter_factory | |
| 11:33:24 | sean-k-mooney | if that is correct the placment and watcher would nto be affected sicnce they are using hard coded midellware adn we dont config that o my knowlaage | |
| 11:38:06 | sean-k-mooney | tracker and keystone seam to be the only thigns that reference it https://codesearch.opendev.org/?q=external_oauth2_token&i=nope&literal=nope&files=&excludeFiles=&repos= | |

| 18:50:37 | sean-k-mooney | gmaan: you might take a look at https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/973438 if you have time. it should fix the test instablity in threading mode | |
| 18:51:11 | sean-k-mooney | it can wait till next week but you reviewed the orgianl so you likely have more context then most | |
| 18:51:24 | gmaan | sean-k-mooney: ack, not sure I can check today but will take a look later | |
| 18:51:30 | gmaan | sure | |
| 18:52:25 | sean-k-mooney | no worries its getting late on a firday so im goign to be heading off soon anyway | |
| 18:53:11 | gmaan | yup, have a nice weekend | |

| 07:50:54 | do3meli | hi, can someone please help to get workflows triggered for https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/972276 ? | |
| 08:01:04 | stephenfin | gibi: o/ any chance you can look at https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/971460 again? I replied to your question | |

| 08:43:45 | gibi | stephenfin: done. And as I see we did it in parallel with bauzas :) so you are now double approved | |
| 08:43:50 | bauzas | lol | |
| 08:44:40 | bauzas | tkajinam: I'll look at gibi's comments today, you'll get a merge conflict on the top of your series due to the fact we just approved another unrelated patch fyi | |
| 08:50:16 | gibi | bauzas: is the conflict due to the parallel refactor series? If so we can decide on the landing order to limit the number of conflicts | |
| 08:53:21 | bauzas | gibi: I explained it in the top-level comment for 971460, my opinion is that we can quickly merge stephenfin's patch because tkajinam's series is still actively under review | |
| 08:54:18 | bauzas | gibi: I just saw you made good comments on the firmware autodetection patches, mostly the one about the default XML setting we should or shouldn't set | |
| 08:54:22 | gibi | ahh OK so it is not the mem encryption context refactor | |
| 08:55:02 | bauzas | nope | |
| 08:55:06 | gibi | cool then | |
| 08:55:38 | gibi | stephenfin's patch is landing and that is just a single patch so no further decision needed | |
