| 17:30:27 | sean-k-mooney | gibi: ill try and rominate on it. im not a huge fan of async io. i dont hate it but i was also wonderign if we could/should consider limited use fo an asynio executor | |
| 17:32:05 | sean-k-mooney | if we were to use the DynamicThreadPoolExecutor | |
| 17:32:33 | sean-k-mooney | are you suggesting we woudl not set a max workers or set it relitivly high with the expcation taht in reality it will stay small? | |
| 17:33:12 | gibi | I have to read on what the Dynamic supports regarding sizing but I see that it can grow and shrink | |
| 17:33:38 | sean-k-mooney | """ If threads are not created often in your application, the number of idle | |
| 17:33:40 | sean-k-mooney | threads may stay high for a long time. To avoid it, you can call | |
| 17:33:42 | sean-k-mooney | :py:meth:`.maintain` periodically to keep the number of threads within | |
| 17:33:44 | sean-k-mooney | the thresholds.""" | |
| 17:34:07 | sean-k-mooney | we might need to do that ^ | |
| 17:35:32 | sean-k-mooney | gibi: i dont hate that idea if im honest. but its proably the rpc pool in oslo service that woudl be the most benifical to use that with right? | |
| 17:36:02 | sean-k-mooney | sorry in oslo.messaging | |
| 17:36:56 | gibi | yeah that too :) | |
| 17:37:24 | sean-k-mooney | i know we can set an executor type when we create the rpc servier im wondering if we can just provide an rpc instance | |
| 17:37:30 | sean-k-mooney | *executor instance | |
| 17:38:31 | sean-k-mooney | ya its just the name https://github.com/openstack/oslo.messaging/blob/master/oslo_messaging/rpc/server.py#L226-L240 | |
| 17:41:15 | sean-k-mooney | so we woudl have ot update https://github.com/openstack/oslo.messaging/blob/master/pyproject.toml#L53 | |
| 17:41:24 | sean-k-mooney | or add a new value | |
| 17:41:55 | sean-k-mooney | might be worth suggeting that to the oslo folks and see what they think | |
| 18:03:16 | dansmith | I'm not sure how the dynamic one really helps | |
| 18:03:43 | dansmith | you still have to set your max to the upper limit of what you're willing tolerate.. it uses less memory in slow times, which is a benefit, but it's still the same problem when you hit the limit | |
| 18:06:50 | gmaan | yeah, it does not solve the limit issue. I think we should be gradually learning about those limit issue (after solving the known one) and keep improving the defaults limit or better separate executor if any specific operations causing problem | |
| 18:36:20 | gibi | https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/eventlet-executor-semaphore-limit this is my brain dump looking at the long running task executor possibilities | |
| 18:36:47 | gibi | we have a list of pros and cons to choose from | |
| 18:38:45 | gmaan | thanks for catching those in etherpad | |

| 19:01:43 | gibi | this is the very raw idea of optionA) from the etherpad ^^ not tested at all :) | |

| 10:31:42 | sean-k-mooney | gibi: ah yes i didnt pull it donw since they respon it but ill take a look shortly | |
| 10:31:53 | sean-k-mooney | that was on my todo list thatnks for the reminder | |
| 10:42:53 | sean-k-mooney | gibi: ill have finsihed testing this in about 15 minute and then ill submit it but how do you feel about adding whitebox to check? we talked about it a few times but it actully caght this bug | |
| 10:43:57 | sean-k-mooney | i mentioned it offhand to jparker too but i recnectly became aware that the linux kernle has the ablity to emulate/report multiple numa nodes as well | |
| 10:44:31 | sean-k-mooney | with not much effort we coulf properly test live migration with and without cpu pinning and hugepages and numa in the first part ci | |
| 10:44:58 | sean-k-mooney | we have most of it already in whitebox we just need to run it and tweak the job slichtly if we want ot add numa | |
| 10:45:57 | sean-k-mooney | i need to tweak my old patch that we reverted for the basic testing of cpu_share_set and repo-spe that for nova-alt-config | |

| 11:14:20 | sean-k-mooney | it has also been tested trasitivly via that change | |
| 11:17:47 | lajoskatona | sean-k-mooney, gibi: thanks | |
| 11:24:01 | priteau | Lots of jobs hitting post_failure in 2025.1 :( ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'typing_extensions' | |
| 11:25:15 | priteau | That's the testtools issue | |
| 11:26:00 | priteau | Is there a patch for this already? | |
| 11:30:55 | gibi | priteau: as far as I know fix landed in testtools and we are waiting for a new release from testtools to get it | |
| 11:35:52 | gibi | priteau: https://github.com/testing-cabal/testtools/pull/570 | |
| 11:36:26 | priteau | https://pypi.org/project/testtools/ | |
| 11:36:29 | priteau | Released: 2 minutes ago | |
| 11:39:12 | priteau | But we would need a bump of upper-constraints? | |
| 11:39:35 | priteau | 2024.1 has testtools===2.7.1 | |
| 11:40:48 | tkajinam | priteau, no | |
| 11:41:00 | tkajinam | priteau, the failing task was common for all branches and doesn't use u-c | |
| 11:41:06 | tkajinam | s/was/is/ | |
| 11:43:25 | priteau | OK | |
| 11:43:30 | priteau | So recheck should be enough? | |
| 11:52:15 | frickler | likely we will need to build new images, as IIUC the broken venv is preconfigured there | |
