| 16:19:01 | kaisers | sry, didn't want to fire in between | |
| 16:20:07 | Uggla | kaisers can you provide the link of the patch, I will add it to the list | |
| 16:20:17 | kaisers | yes, thnx. https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/977300 | |
| 16:22:19 | Uggla | does someone wants to add something else ? | |
| 16:22:26 | r-taketn | Uggla: I’ve read the irclogs and understood your decision that we have extra weeks regarding sev refactor series. Thank you for your confirmation. | |
| 16:22:55 | Uggla | r-taketn yep. | |
| 16:23:57 | Uggla | r-taketn, please continue the effort on that topic if you can. That will be good to have this for next cycle AMD-SNP and TDX. | |
| 16:25:31 | r-taketn | Thank you. I will continue this series during next two weeks. I’ve updated the code and comments. Please review them if cores have time. | |
| 16:26:08 | Uggla | yep at least gibi told me he will follow up on your serie | |
| 16:26:15 | gibi | r-taketn: I'm planning to spend time with your refactor tomorrow of the day after | |
| 16:26:39 | Uggla | gibi 👍 | |
| 16:26:50 | r-taketn | gibi: Thank you! | |
| 16:27:09 | Uggla | can we move on ? | |

| 16:32:41 | Uggla | #topic vmwareapi 3rd-party CI efforts Highlights | |
| 16:34:33 | Uggla | seems fwiesel is not available so moving on. | |
| 16:34:41 | Uggla | #topic Gibi's news about eventlet removal | |
| 16:34:44 | gibi | o/ | |
| 16:35:00 | gibi | nova-compute now can run in native threading mode (default is still eventlet) | |
| 16:35:09 | bauzas | \o/ | |
| 16:35:14 | gibi | and nova-next runs nova-compute and the rest with native threading | |
| 16:35:14 | dansmith | yay | |
| 16:35:17 | Uggla | \o/ | |
| 16:35:43 | gmaan | \o/ | |
| 16:35:44 | dansmith | I apologize for being so absent on those reviews, but is there a reno asking operators to test and provide feedback? | |
| 16:35:48 | fwiesel | Uggla: Sorry. was distracted. no updates | |
| 16:36:04 | Uggla | fwiesel no worries | |
| 16:36:20 | gibi | dansmith: there is reno about the change and nova logs at startup to asking for testing first in pre-prod | |
| 16:36:39 | gibi | dansmith: we can emphesize the feedback part in the prelude | |
| 16:36:56 | Uggla | dansmith, gibi, I will try to do it in prelude and highlights | |
| 16:37:04 | dansmith | ack, sounds good.. this, probably more than any previous thing really needs some concerted feedback I think | |
| 16:37:08 | gmaan | ++ for prelude | |
| 16:37:11 | gmaan | gibi: I am changing to run graceful shutdown job in both mode (eventlet mode as periodic), so that we will have coverage for both https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/978292 | |
| 16:37:12 | dansmith | prelude seems like a good place | |
| 16:37:22 | gibi | gmaan: cool | |
| 16:37:27 | gibi | dansmith: I agree. | |
| 16:38:00 | gibi | we punted novncproxy to H but there is some WIP patch up already from Kamil | |
| 16:38:42 | gibi | I have a set of unit test patches that we can still land becore RC1 https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970069 | |
| 16:39:17 | gibi | and I have a long list of TODOs for cleanups about executors that I will prepare patches for for early H | |
| 16:40:35 | gibi | I still plan to hold the eventlet sync this week but maybe skip some calls during the RC period | |
| 16:40:52 | gibi | just to restrat in full force once master is open of H | |
| 16:40:54 | gibi | that is it from me | |
| 16:41:09 | gibi | ohh one more thing | |
| 16:41:13 | gibi | that fwiesel is around | |
| 16:41:32 | gibi | fwiesel: could you help me debugging the vmware CI with native threading | |
| 16:41:43 | gibi | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/973468 | |
| 16:41:51 | opendevreview | Doug Goldstein proposed openstack/nova master: return error about external network to the user on build failure https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/972601 | |
| 16:41:53 | gibi | see the comments from me in ^^ | |
| 16:42:02 | gibi | I mean in https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/973468 | |
| 16:42:11 | gibi | the image upload seems to be problematic | |
| 16:42:27 | gibi | but snapshot works well with the libvirt driver so this is vmware driver specific | |
| 16:42:36 | gibi | so I need your help | |
| 16:44:04 | Uggla | fwiesel ? | |
| 16:44:55 | gibi | fwiesel: it is OK if you just read back and we can discuss outside of the meeting as well | |
| 16:45:58 | Uggla | fwiesel will probably answer later, moving on to the next topic | |
| 16:46:13 | Uggla | #topic Nova using openstack sdk for neutron | |
| 16:46:43 | lajoskatona | o/ thanks | |
| 16:47:00 | lajoskatona | short feedback: no progress since last meeting | |
| 16:47:43 | lajoskatona | I plan to update the floating IP and port reated changes and clean them (the one for ports actually is red so have to work more on that I think) | |
| 16:47:50 | gmaan | what's the plan on this, are we ok to merge those in rc period or wait till H? | |
| 16:48:10 | dansmith | I assume these are not without risk right? | |
| 16:48:10 | lajoskatona | no worries, I think now everybody busy with the releae and later with RCs | |
| 16:48:28 | gmaan | yeah, there is risk | |
| 16:48:33 | Uggla | gmaan, to my mind there is no urgency. And it is more something for H | |
| 16:48:56 | lajoskatona | yes, I would wait till beginning of H to have time for testing in CI | |
| 16:49:00 | lajoskatona | +1 | |
| 16:49:06 | gmaan | k, bcz I planned to review it but missed the FF so I can start but wait for H to open for merging | |
| 16:50:16 | Uggla | lajoskatona I think we are good. | |
| 16:50:28 | Uggla | moving to next topic | |
| 16:50:33 | Uggla | #topic Bug scrubbing | |
| 16:50:43 | Uggla | #info up to 212 (-4) | |
| 16:51:08 | Uggla | I'll continue to focus on that this week. | |
| 16:51:30 | Uggla | Today because we are a bit short of time, I would like to discuss only this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2141325 opened by gibi. | |
| 16:51:59 | gibi | o/ | |
| 16:52:03 | gibi | so in short | |
| 16:52:23 | gibi | nova assumes during live migration prep that a single VM does not have multiple tap devs with the same MAC | |
| 16:52:36 | gibi | but neutron allows setting MAC on port objects | |
| 16:52:59 | gibi | so one can set up a VM with two ports in different neworks with the same MAC | |
| 16:53:05 | gibi | and live migration will fail | |
| 16:53:35 | gibi | question: do we want to fix it, or do we want to state that please don't try to do this | |
| 16:53:48 | dansmith | is the limitation a nova thing or a libvirt/qemu thing? | |
| 16:54:01 | gibi | on nova, how we identifies tap devs across the two XMLs | |
| 16:54:04 | dansmith | i.e. is it just us using the MAC as a primary key for mapping ports? | |
| 16:54:09 | gibi | just us | |
