17:31:01 sean-k-mooney the third vm will get a no valid host regardless fo the pci request
17:33:54 Uggla sean-k-mooney, please make a comment I'll try to fix it tomorrow morning.
17:34:12 sean-k-mooney yep i have it written im jsut reviewing the rest so i can leave them all in one go
17:35:45 Uggla sean-k-mooney, also if you have not seen 946945: Add reproducer test for bug 2105896 | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/946945 I rebase and stack the fix on top. Coz I would like to close this bug too.
17:36:57 sean-k-mooney Uggla: thanks for rebasing it. no i didnt see that you did that
17:37:33 sean-k-mooney and yes it would be nice to fix that im fine with stacking them or if you want to take that over feel free
17:37:51 Uggla I had to signoff the patch, so that's the reason why I set me as co author.
17:38:01 sean-k-mooney ya that ok
17:38:17 sean-k-mooney i just created the repoducer to help the person who was developign the bug fix
17:38:18 Uggla in any case keeping you as the original author.
17:39:22 sean-k-mooney well not quite i guess i created trhe repoducer ealier but never got around to fixing it
17:39:40 Uggla you can have a look at the fix too. Basically I have just added the reproducer part in the fix that was missing (so setting me as co author on the fix too).
17:40:46 Uggla So if you can confirm the direction is ok, then I'll look for cores to merge them.
17:49:35 sean-k-mooney sure proably not today but i can take a look tomorrow
17:49:51 sean-k-mooney ill see if i can review it today when i finish with your chagne
18:00:34 sean-k-mooney Uggla: comments pushed https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/978954/4/nova/tests/functional/libvirt/test_pci_sriov_servers.py there are a few minor testign regressions but the over all patch looks good
18:01:51 Uggla sean-k-mooney, thx, I'll try to fix that tomorrow morning with a fredh mind.
18:02:18 sean-k-mooney no worries. the changes are subtle so best not to do it while tired
19:33:12 opendevreview Lajos Katona proposed openstack/nova master: WIP: Use SDK for Neutron security-groups https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/981141
19:34:08 sean-k-mooney Uggla: oh i see did orgianly take over https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/946079/6 and update it for the first person tha ttried to fix it but they abandoned the patch and https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337 is a new attempt to fix it
19:35:47 sean-k-mooney so it not usign the orginal fix i was working at least not in the same way
20:51:24 sean-k-mooney Uggla: if you want to chat more about https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337/comment/4abdf064_10cf13ce/ tommorow let me know i think https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/946079 was more compelte fix and it shoudl not have been abandoned

10:25:35 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Reproduce bug #2144660: NUMA cell sorting bug for non-PCI VMs https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/978885
11:05:05 Uggla sean-k-mooney, dansmith, I have answered comments ^ so if you can have a new review run. It will be great.
11:28:01 opendevreview Dmitriy Chubinidze proposed openstack/nova master: docs: mention q35 machine type for UEFI guests https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/981413
12:28:07 sean-k-mooney Uggla: im +2 on both of those now. if you need to respine a release not would be nice but its not required
13:20:40 Uggla sean-k-mooney, yes I will write a release as discussed yesterday.
13:21:20 Uggla sean-k-mooney I'll keep you posted when it is done.
13:21:49 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Fix error when multiple security group in a project with same name https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337
13:22:45 Uggla sean-k-mooney I have just pushed an update of https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337. Tell me if I understand well what you wanted to achieve.
13:31:24 sean-k-mooney ack ill take a look after im off a call
13:31:54 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Fix NUMA cell sorting for non-PCI VMs with pack strategy https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/978954
13:36:51 Uggla sean-k-mooney release notes added in ^
13:53:52 sean-k-mooney +2 on the sorting series ill re review https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337/4 in a little more detail
13:54:31 sean-k-mooney i think you made the changes i asked for but it woudl also be nice to have a very short release note for the security group bug too
13:55:42 sean-k-mooney nova.tests.unit.api.openstack.compute.test_schemas.SchemaTest.test_schemas
13:56:05 sean-k-mooney seems to be hitting the per test timeout on slower nodes in the coverage job
13:56:20 sean-k-mooney i wonder if we shoudl tweak that in the tox.ini
13:59:28 Uggla sean-k-mooney ok for the release note. "seems to be hitting the per test timeout on slower nodes in the coverage job" how do you see that ?
14:13:44 sean-k-mooney i looked at the coverage job on the repoducer
14:14:05 sean-k-mooney the schema validation test timed out but i have seen that on one or two other patches i think
14:14:13 sean-k-mooney so https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/b2e50d5600ce479ca7287a2ebae35e79
14:14:41 sean-k-mooney File "/home/zuul/src/opendev.org/openstack/nova/.tox/cover/lib/python3.12/site-packages/fixtures/_fixtures/timeout.py", line 57, in signal_handler
14:14:43 sean-k-mooney raise TimeoutException()
14:14:45 sean-k-mooney fixtures._fixtures.timeout.TimeoutException
14:15:09 sean-k-mooney that isnet a job timeout its a test timeout all the other test pass and it passed in the non coverage jobs
14:15:31 sean-k-mooney the corevate profileing slows thigns down a bit so i think on a slow node it just take longer then the defautl test timeout
14:16:24 sean-k-mooney im not 100% sure that is the cause as i have not looked at it in detail
14:16:35 sean-k-mooney Uggla: its unrelated to your change
14:17:00 sean-k-mooney i just wanted to mention it before recheckign incase we are sing this in ohter patches as it could become a semi gate blocker if that is unstable
14:18:10 Uggla sean-k-mooney, oh ok. I guess we can keep an eye on it, and discuss in next upstream meeting.
14:20:27 obre Is there any chance that this bugfix gets merged before the G-release? https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/916409 (A bug making rebuild of a BFV-instance impossible)
14:21:44 sean-k-mooney obre: unless the bug was intoduced in this cycle no
14:22:02 sean-k-mooney we are past rc1 so rc2+ only incldue bugs that were intoduced in this release
14:22:17 sean-k-mooney that does not mean it cant be backproted and release reight after
14:25:39 Uggla obre I have included it in the bug review list
14:26:47 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Fix error when multiple security group in a project with same name https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337
14:27:22 sean-k-mooney obre: its in merge conflict and the orginal autor is not working on it
14:27:38 sean-k-mooney so someone will have to fix that again i might get to it next week
14:28:03 sean-k-mooney but it need review form peopel other then me to prgoress
14:28:37 sean-k-mooney if i find time ill push an update later today
14:28:50 Uggla sean-k-mooney, what is your opinion on that one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2145010 to me it is more a feature request than bug. Do you share the same feeling ?
14:29:29 sean-k-mooney so the are raising a commont issue
14:29:46 sean-k-mooney they are correct that day 1 it shoudl have used both
14:29:49 sean-k-mooney os_distro="debian"
14:29:51 sean-k-mooney os_version="13"
14:30:07 sean-k-mooney but the spec defied that os_distro="debian13" woudl be required
14:30:14 sean-k-mooney i.e that only os_distro woudl be used
14:30:23 sean-k-mooney even though os_version exsited
14:30:32 sean-k-mooney so that is a breakign api change in my view
14:30:45 sean-k-mooney as it will chenat the behvior for exsitng images
14:31:18 sean-k-mooney so i woudl close it as invalid but im biased again that feature as i personlly want to remove the libosinfo functionality entrily
14:31:26 sean-k-mooney i belive it was a mistake to ever include it
14:31:53 sean-k-mooney becuase it does nto provdie stable bevhor across version as they assuem the domian will not be deleted and recreated and rely on that for stablity
14:32:24 sean-k-mooney nova deletes and recreates the domain all the time so if you sue the libosinfo fucntionaltiy you can get unexpected bhavior in nova when you do a package update
14:33:28 sean-k-mooney i partly mitigated that in the past i think but it still makes me uneasey so i woudl mark this opion and whishlist
14:33:56 sean-k-mooney i dont think it woudl be safe to turn this on by defautl (looking at both disto and version) without a flag to opt in
14:34:34 sean-k-mooney they are totally right to expect it to look at both its just not how it was implmeented unfortunetly
14:35:01 sean-k-mooney https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/liberty/approved/libvirt-hardware-policy-from-libosinfo.html
14:35:39 sean-k-mooney the spec actully say it use –property os_name=fedora21 but i woudl have to double check that
14:37:17 sean-k-mooney ya its usign os_name today https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/osinfo.py#L93
14:37:31 sean-k-mooney oh no os_disto https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/osinfo.py#L136
14:37:54 sean-k-mooney os_name is the vairable name
14:37:54 Uggla sean-k-mooney, that's fine I answered with "invalid" because based on what you have said above, clearly it is a behavior change so more a BP than a bug.
14:38:11 sean-k-mooney yep that fair
14:38:28 sean-k-mooney i think fi we ant to do the se need a new image proeprty to enabel using this functionlty
14:38:35 sean-k-mooney we coudl perhaps eventually change the defualt of that
14:39:00 sean-k-mooney but as a new feature it woudl have to be opt in i think for a release or two before we consider if it can be the default
14:39:48 sean-k-mooney by the way currently when you use this feature we only use it for 2 things
14:40:05 sean-k-mooney the hw_vif_model and hw_disk_bus defaults
14:40:42 sean-k-mooney if we were to use libosinfo there are many other thing it could express an opion on but we have moved toward usign libvirts defaults instead
14:40:49 sean-k-mooney our our own in code
14:41:24 sean-k-mooney we are not tellign libosinfo about the machine type we are suign for example or the architecure
14:41:44 sean-k-mooney so today it can provide sub optimal or invalide recomendation in some cases
14:42:20 sean-k-mooney the feature was never really updated after it was initally created so its somethign i discuage peopel from using
14:43:54 sean-k-mooney the last change was https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/6be668e51992df53a4d871bea70bc738a9beacb8 to workaround a breakign change in libosinfo so i just see this as tech debt today
15:01:15 bauzas sean-k-mooney: do you have time for a question about https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/979999 ?
