#openstack-nova - 2026-07-20
14:05:23 tkajinam antia, my local rebase is yet to do another version bump but we can revert that part. maybe we want to discuss that during the upcoming meeting
14:07:35 gibi antia: tkajinam: any progress on intel TDX is very welcome we have 5 weeks left to land it and I have dedicated review cycles promised to get it reviewed as fast as I can
14:08:00 gibi so even if a half done series pushed up would help me help you :)
14:08:36 antia tkajinam, yes that sounds reasonable. Regarding https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/997635, atleast the changes to LibvirtReportTraitsTestBase will be relevant so I think it is good to rebase against it already
14:10:31 antia gibi, yes apologies I had to take PTO for personal reasons last week. I am now fully back and will work full time on it until the deadline.
14:11:32 antia will push what I have today so we have something to start with
14:14:57 gibi antia: sounds good. thanks
14:20:25 tkajinam bauzas, thanks for approving the remaining patches !
14:20:51 bauzas tkajinam: sorry was pretty packed with other stuff downstream but I reviewed the whole series :)
14:21:04 bauzas thanks for the hard work !
14:42:56 gmaan gibi: i replied on the security group name (trailiing/leading whitespace) issue, https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/995073
14:43:48 gibi gmaan: thanks
14:44:01 gmaan it seems we need to fix it with microverison. If so then i know we said every API change need spec but this seems straight forward issue to fix so not sure if we can wave off the spec requirement here and fix as specless BP or just bug tracking
14:45:04 gmaan for me, we do not need to do spec here and can just review/merge the fix but would like to know what other things
14:45:44 gmaan i can add it in today meeting agenda though
14:45:48 gibi gmaan: yeah. I'm a bit sad about this needed a new microversion. It feels our microversion rules are too strict regarding bugs. But I'm not dying on this specific bugfix hill.
14:46:34 gmaan i know sometime microversion are overkil but that is what we have
14:46:41 gibi regarding fixing in specless bp we need the core team's overall agreement but I'm OK if it is really just changing the schema to allow what neutron allows
14:47:36 gibi gmaan: "that is what we have" I feel like we are fully in charge to decide what we have as a rule :)
14:49:20 gmaan well, its interop issue not backward compatiblity and we have taken both into account in past. I am ok if we want to change some rule to relax the microversion bump need but that will be agreed separatly as overall policy
14:50:14 gmaan ok, as the use case itself is not good/weired, let it go in it own pace then. I will ask author to propose spec and it can go in next cycle as this cycle spec is done
14:52:16 gibi interop as two clouds with the same API microversion behaving differently because they are on different nova-api software level?
14:53:11 gibi if so, that is super limiting. I.e. if a bugfix changes a nova 500 to a nova 200 and an active server, that is an interop issue in that definition as such bug fix changes the observed behavior of nova on the same microversion
14:53:39 gibi but we are tend to fix bug to change the observed behavior of nova
14:54:05 gibi anyhow this is a wider discussion
14:55:53 gmaan yeah, we had one such cases 2.42 microversion for network device tag which we added in 2.33 microversion, introduced bug which removed it from schema 2.37?, then added back in 2.42 microversion
14:56:39 gmaan it is mainly issue for users/apps moving from cloud allowing whitespace SG name to cloud rejecting them

16:08:22 bauzas #topic vmwareapi 3rd-party CI efforts Highlights
16:08:28 bauzas fwiesel: around ?
16:08:33 fwiesel Hi
16:08:52 bauzas o/
16:09:00 fwiesel Yes, I looked into the pipeline failures, and instance creations were slowed down to that extend that no instances were being created.
16:09:32 fwiesel #link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/oslo.vmware/+/997269
16:10:01 fwiesel This should reduce the overhead of doing api calls against VSphere, but I am suspecting it is not the full picture.
16:10:09 fwiesel Still digging into it.
16:10:13 fwiesel That's from my side.
16:11:24 bauzas cool thanks
16:11:31 bauzas #topic Kamil's news about eventlet removal

16:12:20 sambork last week was dominated by test stabilization: the unit test exclude list is gone, and there's a push to make the threading functional CI job voting.
16:12:53 gibi e.g. https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2161293 ^^
