#openstack-nova - 2026-01-30
18:43:37 gmaan i know release_write_lock does not raise exception other then other writter try to unlock them but 1. its 3rd party so changes can happen there 2. resting internal state before actually releasing lock seems odd to m,e
18:46:40 gmaan gibi: let's discuss on Monday about the DB/object changes for new RPC topic. I was thinking the same as you commented but proposed the changes because old field 'topic' was in DB/object. I will comment in review too.
18:49:00 gmaan dansmith: maybe you remember if any rational or it is from starting, we have RPC 'topic' field in DB/Object but it is not user facing or changable things - https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/59a7093915298973c72b6d1749a6acd27e0045a9/nova/objects/service.py#L328
18:49:27 gmaan as I am adding a new RPC server for graceful shutdown, I proposed to add that new topic field 'topic_alt' in DB/object - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/975240/2
18:50:01 sean-k-mooney gmaan: ok ill do that quickly then before i leave
18:50:17 dansmith I don't remember specifically, I suspect it's a holdover from much longer ago where "everything was pluggable"
18:50:48 gmaan ohk, In that case, we can leave this old field but not add the new topic field as no use case as of now
18:50:51 gmaan sean-k-mooney: ack
18:51:27 dansmith yeah doesn't appear to be used anywhere
18:52:20 gmaan k, will abandon my change, if we need it can be added in future anyways
18:52:31 dansmith ah, looks like it may have been a nova-network thing
18:52:43 dansmith like, to get the network manager for a host, which may be shared
18:53:29 dansmith gmaan: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/icehouse-eol/nova/network/manager.py#L249
18:53:34 dansmith that's a deep cut :)
18:55:12 gmaan ohk, I see that. I tried to find history in but did not go that old. :) thanks
18:55:54 dansmith objects were maturing around icehouse so I usually use that as the point to look for pre-object histopry :)
18:56:44 gmaan i remember icehouse that was the release I started my upstream work :)
18:56:58 dansmith you're such a newb ;P
18:57:22 gmaan :)

#openstack-nova - 2026-02-02
08:02:31 obre Hi! There is a BP (add-amx-traits) thats been lying around since 2023, which describes a feature I would like to see in nova, and that I guess Im able to implement. The BP is not approved, and posted by someone else. Should I in some way update the BP and assign it to myself, or should I create a new one to get it approved and then Implemented?
08:17:39 mkuroha gibi: Please take another look when you have time. I’ve addressed your comments. https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/948304
08:41:21 ykarel bauzas, auniyal can you check os-vif release patch https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/975181
10:03:22 elodilles auniyal bauzas Uggla : hi, sorry for pinging, but there are a couple of release patches that would require a release liaison review o:) if you have some spare time, then please take a look: https://review.opendev.org/q/project:openstack/releases+reviewer:self+is:open
11:15:59 gibi gmaan: thanks for the review on the eventlet removal side. I see you went back and forth about waiting for the deadline of the currently waited for task. I think I have a way out of that debate. Currently the libvirt driver will cancel() all the outstanding tasks on the executor then shut it down. So at shutdown the executor can be awaken, check if the current task is cancelled or not then decide
11:16:05 gibi what to do. This way a cancelled task's deadline does not need to be waited for
