13:50:03 sean-k-mooney let me see if i can have ai rebase this and add the test coverage really quickly
13:51:10 zigo It applies cleanly on gazpacho, FYI.
13:51:20 zigo Good chance it does on master.
13:51:53 sean-k-mooney yep but we at the very least need a new ci run so ill do a trivial rebase add the requested unit test and push it up
13:51:53 zigo As for the policy to have tests: I very much support it and I thank you for making sure we follow the policy, no worries.
13:52:10 zigo Thanks a lot ! :)
13:52:39 sean-k-mooney this si kind fo one of the perfect usecase for ai. we have a patch we knew fixed the problem but it jsut needs a rebase adn trivial testing added
13:54:45 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova master: Remove Linux bridge VIF support from Nova https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/957040
13:55:08 sean-k-mooney woot!!
13:55:42 sean-k-mooney zigo: that ^ has been on my todolist for like over a year since neutron removed supprot in 2025.2?
13:56:12 zigo :)
14:08:24 opendevreview sean mooney proposed openstack/nova master: weights: fix TypeError in weight debug log serialization https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/904060
14:11:53 sean-k-mooney zigo: so i think ^ should be ok lets see what ci say
14:12:52 zigo Great ! Thanks.
14:13:16 sean-k-mooney we do use debug mode in ci so if that prints propelry and the output looks sane i may upgrade back to +2 but +1 for now since i have only run the unit test on that
14:13:34 zigo I believe the issue is debug + json, not just debug.
14:13:53 sean-k-mooney https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/904060/4/nova/tests/unit/test_weights.py#87
14:14:01 sean-k-mooney shoudl hopefully validate it
14:14:22 sean-k-mooney but are you sayign its more that its a problem if you have debug logging + oslo log in json mode?
14:15:32 sean-k-mooney the orginal bug just mentions debug=true https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2028518
14:16:46 sean-k-mooney so i think the patch shoudl be sufficent but we can alwasy extened it again if needed
14:17:29 zigo The bug tells about oslo.log in json mode, yeah. And that's why we're affected (we use debug + json in production, so it's easier to stream to elastic search).
14:18:30 sean-k-mooney well https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2028518 does not mention json mode, that just about normla debug mode with an object that we happen to be serisalise as json which is slightly diffent
14:19:05 sean-k-mooney zigo: do you have the ablity to test this?
14:19:07 zigo Oh ok.
14:19:15 sean-k-mooney you mentioned seeing it in debian?
14:19:32 zigo I mentioned we have the issue in our public cloud with the scheduler.log.
14:19:40 sean-k-mooney ah ok
14:19:52 sean-k-mooney so we use debug logging in our downstream product as well
14:19:57 zigo That'd be on Caracal, for which I just backported the patch (not your revision though).
14:20:04 sean-k-mooney i.e. we have the schduler defautl to debug
14:20:21 sean-k-mooney im not aware of this impacting that but that based on antelope
14:20:56 sean-k-mooney how does it manifest is it jsut a traceback but otherwise it works?
14:21:20 sean-k-mooney im trying to undersand why this isnt breakign us hence the question
14:21:44 zigo Just traceback, VMs are still spawned, but it doesn't feel very right ! :)
14:22:05 sean-k-mooney ack ok so this is likely a "silgnet issue" we are not aware of in the ci
14:22:07 sean-k-mooney and yes
14:22:17 sean-k-mooney i hate "standared tracebacks/errors"
14:22:20 sean-k-mooney in logs
14:22:30 sean-k-mooney i.e. the ones form os-brick
14:22:39 sean-k-mooney so ya it woudl be good to fix and backport
14:53:00 sean-k-mooney dansmith: oh we dont need to read the full stream for any format? i tought one of the vmdk or ova format need that but that is good to know
14:53:26 sean-k-mooney im probaly miss rememberign but i thoguh one of the format had a triailer we needed to look at
14:54:08 sean-k-mooney althogh that really just an implamtion detial even in that case as the main point of it being stream based wehre we can reject it once we know its wrogn still holds
14:54:43 sean-k-mooney glance would still reject it at the first point it know tis wrong even if that is a trailer at the end of the format
14:55:05 dansmith sean-k-mooney: nope :)
14:55:39 sean-k-mooney cool
14:56:38 sean-k-mooney we do have EndCaptureRegion however https://github.com/openstack/oslo.utils/blob/master/oslo_utils/imageutils/format_inspector.py#L106
14:56:43 sean-k-mooney that the thing i was thinking of
14:57:28 sean-k-mooney which is for vmdk https://github.com/openstack/oslo.utils/blob/master/oslo_utils/imageutils/format_inspector.py#L942-L949
14:57:46 dansmith sean-k-mooney: we can capture the trailer yep
14:58:07 dansmith but we don't _have_ to do that, and we also don't need to store the image to do it
14:58:35 sean-k-mooney ack ok that fits with my recolection then
15:33:59 Uggla Reminder, upstream meeting in ~30mn
15:59:03 lajoskatona sean-k-mooney: Hi, I updated gibi's patch for iothreads (https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/988774 ) as the unit test failed i the right way :-)
16:00:18 lajoskatona sean-k-mooney: first I can't see if the patch is related to livemigration post_failure, but it is suspicious....
