| 13:53:37 | sean-k-mooney | if you enable both that is what libvirt will do internally | |
| 13:54:06 | tafkamax | ok, i read that in the docs that post-copy seems to be preferred | |
| 13:54:25 | sean-k-mooney | tafkamax: if you have a new enough nova you can also enabel multile tcp connection for live migration which is you pair that with a high bandwith nic helps alot | |
| 13:54:38 | sean-k-mooney | they are technially for 2 diffent things | |
| 13:54:53 | sean-k-mooney | post-copy is for memory bound vms which is typiclly the main issue | |
| 13:55:15 | sean-k-mooney | auto converge is a diffent aprpoch to the same problem where the vm is paused for longer and longer downtimes | |
| 13:55:29 | sean-k-mooney | basiclly to prevent ti form dirting the memory in the first place | |
| 13:55:59 | sean-k-mooney | but post-copy has much lower guest performance impact | |
| 13:56:09 | tafkamax | ok thanks for the info. will look into the tcp connection thing aswell | |
| 13:56:26 | sean-k-mooney | the tadeoff is that it extend the tiem where if there is a network interuption the guest can crash. | |
| 13:56:34 | sean-k-mooney | that is a very very rare event | |
| 13:56:46 | sean-k-mooney | but that is the reason its not on by default upstream | |
| 13:57:00 | sean-k-mooney | we have had post copy on by defualt in our downstream disto for a few years now | |

| 18:20:27 | melwitt | elodilles: hey I saw that you had WIP to fix grenade-skip-level-always on stable/2025.1 but I noticed now the failure looks more fundamental i.e. "AttributeError: module 'setuptools.build_meta' has no attribute 'prepare_metadata_for_build_editable'. Did you mean: 'prepare_metadata_for_build_wheel'?" | |
| 18:21:12 | melwitt | not sure if there is a way to fix this or if this is a situation where the job would be better off removed from the branch. FYI for your interest :) | |

| 15:15:09 | opendevreview | Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Fix resize to unpermitted flavors https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/987704 | |
| 15:17:46 | dansmith | Uggla: this ^ is a public security bug fix.. we decided to do this outside embargo because it's not super impactful.. still would be good to try to prioritize review, merge, and backport I think | |
| 15:20:38 | Uggla | dansmith, yep, I set it in the list, I will warn in the next upstream meeting. Btw, I think we can also ask to have it in a sprint. | |
| 15:25:20 | dansmith | I'd rather not mix our downstream team organization with things like this.. | |
| 15:25:34 | dansmith | bauzas: FYI ^ about the flavor fix, maybe you can hit that quicker since you have context | |
| 15:29:13 | bauzas | dansmith: already reviewing it :) | |
| 15:29:33 | dansmith | bauzas: nice thanks :D | |
| 15:31:07 | bauzas | +2 | |
| 15:31:13 | bauzas | 'd | |
| 15:32:04 | dansmith | excellent thanks.. | |
| 15:33:59 | dansmith | maybe gmaan or melwitt could have a looksee | |
| 15:43:43 | gibi | dansmith: do we want to add a release notes to that bugfix? Other that I'm +2 | |
| 15:44:51 | dansmith | gibi: I dunno, I don't really think we need renos for every bug fix, especially when it's not changing important behavior. The bug is referenced and it's very detailed, and while it is a security thing, it's not very impactful. | |
| 15:45:00 | dansmith | if you think this needs one for some reason I can surely add it | |
| 15:47:17 | gibi | dansmith: I have no specific reason for a reno so I approved the patch as is | |
| 15:47:27 | gibi | I left a follow up request to consider | |
| 16:02:52 | elodilles | melwitt: unfortunately i haven't found any fix for the grenade-skip-level-always job (unmaintained/2024.1 -> stable/2025.1) yet :/ it's on my TODO (but with lower priority). in nova, it was set non-voting some time ago already. in placement i also added the same workaround to unblock the gate (i'd appreciate a review on the patch o:)): https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/980761 | |
| 16:31:02 | opendevreview | Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Refactor get_flavor_by_flavor_id() to require context https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/987723 | |
| 16:31:23 | dansmith | gibi: ^ straight from the devil's mouth to your eyeballs. Minimal checking so far, but I'll go over it in more detail in gerrit | |
| 16:54:00 | gibi | dansmith: looks OK to me | |
| 16:56:04 | dansmith | gibi: ack, thanks for catching my typo, I'll rev both quickly | |
| 16:59:46 | opendevreview | Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Refactor get_flavor_by_flavor_id() to require context https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/987723 | |
| 17:05:09 | gibi | dansmith: thanks. +2 | |
| 17:05:43 | dansmith | o7 | |
| 17:47:32 | sean-k-mooney | dansmith: i +1'd no need to pull it form the gate or anythin but it woudl be good to add a release note for this i think | |
| 17:48:13 | sean-k-mooney | the fix looks good overall so no objection to merging it as is | |
| 17:57:33 | sean-k-mooney | gibi: dansmith by the way i have seen the updates on the pci spec. i have not had time to review them and likely wont till next week but | |
| 17:57:53 | sean-k-mooney | i do see the pain point in the configuration options | |
| 18:38:22 | opendevreview | Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Add unpin-az spec https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/986539 | |
| 20:32:42 | sean-k-mooney | dansmith: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/devstack-plugin-ceph/+/986818 does not fix the image pull failure in the ceph jobs but it shoudl help some fo the other transiant failure. if you keep seeing podman failure perhaps we shoudl condier retrying that step as well | |
| 20:33:06 | sean-k-mooney | dansmith: im assuming the 503 was just a tempry failure so hopefully yoru recheck goes through | |
| 20:36:44 | sean-k-mooney | it failed on https://github.com/openstack/devstack-plugin-ceph/blob/master/devstack/lib/cephadm#L373-L374 | |
| 20:40:16 | sean-k-mooney | and we are only usign that to determin which verion of cephadm to install https://github.com/openstack/devstack-plugin-ceph/blob/master/devstack/lib/cephadm#L166-L185 | |
| 20:40:34 | sean-k-mooney | so i feel like we could improve that although it may just fail later | |

| 09:00:32 | kklimaszewski | Hello, I've recently proposed a new nova spec for SPDK-based nova-provisioned storage backend: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/985676. Would anyone here be willing to review it/be its liaison? | |

| 14:32:20 | dansmith | gibi: ^ | |
| 14:32:38 | dansmith | also, gibi are you waiting on me for anything on the pci grouping spec? | |
| 14:33:00 | dansmith | I had gotten distracted with things and realized I never hit submit on my comments from a couple days ago | |
| 14:33:08 | dansmith | but I assume we're looking for another revision soon? | |
| 14:46:12 | opendevreview | Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova-specs master: add pci passthrough groups spec for 2026.2 https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/975635 | |
| 14:46:50 | gibi | dansmith: very soon indeed :) ^^ | |
| 14:47:06 | dansmith | ack | |
| 14:47:27 | dansmith | gibi: no +2 on the unpin-AZ because you're not going to review the implementation I guess? | |
| 14:49:18 | dansmith | I had asked bauzas because it seems like he has a lot of context in the area, but never heard that he actually would... so I need to confirm or find someone I guess | |
| 14:49:35 | gibi | dansmith: no +2 as I don't yet know if it gets enough priority that I will have the time to review the impl | |
| 14:50:19 | gibi | but if my time allocation is resolved then I can be one who reviews the impl | |
| 14:51:42 | dansmith | ack.. I guess I was expecting I need to review the pci grouping thing even though I don't want to.. were you expecting/counting on me for that or.. | |
| 14:51:47 | dansmith | ? | |
| 14:55:27 | gibi | obviously reviews are welcome but if you don't have the time then feel free to ignore it | |
| 14:57:27 | dansmith | I'm just trying to make sure we've got people signed up to review it if it's important and non-trivial and that you don't get left with "best effort" | |
| 14:58:04 | gibi | right now I'm good with best-effort. I will let the team know if this changes (internal priorities are in flux at the moment | |
| 14:58:07 | gibi | ) | |
| 14:58:26 | dansmith | okay | |
