16:43:42 gibi as rebuild* task_state could mean an ongoing evac, or a failed evac that you want to retry
16:43:55 gibi where failed, is failed do the dest compute is dead
16:44:07 gibi s/do the/ do to/
16:44:17 gibi s/do the/ due to/
16:44:59 bauzas oh right the problem is not only when concurrent evacuation requests, this is also about ensuring we can ask for evac again if it fails
16:45:34 bauzas but if the evac failed, then the instance is not in ACTIVE vm state, right ?
16:45:40 bauzas I have to look at the code
16:46:02 bauzas I don't think we move the instance back to ACTIVE if we fail on evac
16:46:14 bauzas (compared to migrations for example)
16:46:29 gibi or write a book about distributes systems :)
16:46:29 gibi I guess I can propose PTG topic :)
16:46:58 tkajinam if evacuation "fails" normally it may be easy though if compute node dies in the middle then evacuation may get stuck
16:47:07 tkajinam can we check state of the dest compute node to determine whether the current evac can progress ?
16:47:40 opendevreview Ashish Gupta proposed openstack/nova master: Fix init_host crash migration test under native threading https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/1001369
16:48:04 gibi bauzas: evac is possible from ERROR state :)
16:48:23 bauzas doh
16:48:39 gibi tkajinam: the dest compute is not well defined unfortunately
16:48:55 bauzas gibi: if you write a book about distributed systems, you wouldn't be the first :)
16:49:18 gibi there is instance.host that evacuate sets pretty late. There is the migration object dest host but we can have multiple unfinished evacuation migration object with different dests
16:49:25 bauzas I guess this sounds a PTG discussion indeed
16:49:33 tkajinam yeah
16:49:44 gibi bauzas: mine will solve it!
16:49:45 gibi :)
16:49:52 bauzas hah then I can review
16:50:07 gibi you will get a dedicate pre-release copy of it for sure
16:50:07 bauzas provided you're not proposing a state machine :)
16:50:25 gibi "a" state machine that is short sighted :)
16:50:51 bauzas if someone says "etcd will solve that", I swear I will find you
16:50:54 gibi OK I think I will propose a ptg topic
16:51:06 Uggla etcd will solve that :)
16:51:12 bauzas I'll find you
16:51:17 Uggla ;)
16:51:17 gibi there are "better" (mean newer) trials than etcd :)
16:51:17 bauzas and I know your home
16:51:45 gibi anyhow I think I'm done here. mic drop
16:51:52 bauzas gibi: so, are you asking for reviews about your WIP or do we punt that to PTG?
16:52:21 gibi bauzas: feel free to read the commit message of my WIP and my last comment on the bug
16:52:25 bauzas it will require a substantial amount of context loading, but that sounds a nasty bug tho
16:52:39 gibi but we won't have solution on RC1 week
16:52:42 bauzas gibi: OK'll try
16:52:47 Uggla To my mind that sounds complex enough to discuss to the PTG.
16:52:48 gibi so we can continue after H release
16:52:57 gibi probably on the PTG (depending of downstream push)
16:53:13 Uggla ok
16:53:28 bauzas my concern is that a PTG discussion will probably require some prerequisite effort for context loading
16:53:45 gibi I will create more context if this will end up being a PTG topic
16:53:53 bauzas cool
16:53:55 gibi I cannot help loading it though
16:54:07 Uggla anything else to discuss in the last 5mn, if not I think we are done.
16:54:14 gibi I don't yet have a remote exploit in your head
16:54:35 bauzas well, I think I know how we manage our VM and task states, but I'm more concerned by the quirks we have in code (all the nasty assumptions we have as code conditionals)
16:54:37 gibi (sssh do not tell them)
16:55:12 bauzas I could write a book about all nova API preconditions
16:55:49 bauzas (that one would probably be new compared to some random book about distributed systems :D )
16:56:50 Uggla ok so closing now.
16:56:55 Uggla Thanks for joining this meeting. Have a nice day/evening.

17:16:15 sean-k-mooney we could note the startup time improvment but that about it form me i think the prelude looks reasonabel as is
