| 12:10:26 | elodilles | sean-k-mooney: by exception here i mean, that "we should avoid things based on stable policy, but the team decides, that despite it's against the policy, the team accepts to backport it anyway" o:) | |
| 12:10:52 | sean-k-mooney | right but that only applies to configable changes | |
| 12:11:04 | sean-k-mooney | we whoudl not avoid fixign broken behvior in a backport | |
| 12:11:36 | elodilles | +1 | |
| 12:12:01 | sean-k-mooney | nova/libvirt has historcally disbaled thing like this in verias code paths | |
| 12:12:29 | sean-k-mooney | the issue here is we are movign the management form libvirt to os-vif and there is a default change in neutron that expsoes the behvior delta | |
| 12:12:48 | sean-k-mooney | we added the fucntionatly in os-vif last cycel but we defautled to the old behvior | |
| 12:12:57 | sean-k-mooney | in this cycle neutron has update dthe defualt to use os-vif | |
| 12:13:10 | sean-k-mooney | so the ipv6 link local issue is now more apprent | |
| 12:14:14 | sean-k-mooney | this is one of those things that is also somewhat disto dependent as the defautl for things like " do all itnerface get link local adresses" depend on the distro | |
| 12:14:38 | sean-k-mooney | we try to normalise this behvior in os-vif when it impact perfromacne or security | |
| 12:15:52 | sean-k-mooney | for example if we create a bridge we disabel ipv6 entrily https://github.com/openstack/os-vif/blob/master/vif_plug_ovs/linux_net.py#L127-L138 for the saem reason | |
| 12:27:42 | elodilles | ah I see. :S so if i understand it well, this is really something that should already be part of 2026.2 Hibiscus coordinated release, right? | |
| 12:31:12 | elodilles | anyway, if the team is confident that this does not bring any regression AND it is safe for a late os-vif release and version bump, then I think release team is OK with it (at least, me o:)) and requirements team probably same, too. *I* think. | |
| 12:34:03 | elodilles | but this should happen ASAP :X | |
| 12:49:32 | ralonsoh | (sorry, I was in a meeting, checking now the messages) | |
| 12:51:12 | ralonsoh | sean-k-mooney, so I think you'll backport it to 2026.2, right? | |
| 13:33:31 | opendevreview | Stephen Finucane proposed openstack/nova master: api: Drop Paste dependency https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/1005563 | |
| 13:33:59 | stephenfin | sean-k-mooney: zigo: ☝️ Probably too late for Hibiscus, though we could backport it after the release | |
| 13:37:00 | sean-k-mooney | stephenfin: that droping paste ranther then pastedeploy right | |
| 13:37:05 | stephenfin | that's part of the code I ultimately wanted to have in oslo.wsgi, but I haven't got that ready yet | |
| 13:37:15 | stephenfin | sean-k-mooney: yep. pastedeploy is still semi-maintained | |
| 13:37:28 | sean-k-mooney | ack just confirming | |
| 13:37:33 | stephenfin | and doesn't depend on paste | |
| 13:37:43 | sean-k-mooney | ok i was not sure about htat aspect | |
| 13:38:56 | sean-k-mooney | what we really need in oslo.wsgi woudl be a parser for the api-paste.ini and standalone implemation of the pipeline/middelware loading/cofniguration | |
| 13:39:52 | sean-k-mooney | how that is integrated into the relvent frameworks however is framework dependent | |
| 13:41:46 | stephenfin | agreed. That had been my plan | |
| 13:41:57 | stephenfin | effectively vendor the useful parts of pastedeploy and cull the rest | |
| 13:42:03 | stephenfin | vendor/rewrite | |
| 13:52:31 | sean-k-mooney | ya for cybrog we may rewrite given teh other api work i expect in the future but on the other hand im hoping to pace that change with the other work we need to focus on | |
| 13:52:50 | sean-k-mooney | the api is small but still. | |
| 13:53:14 | sean-k-mooney | watcher uses pastedeploy without supprot for api-paste.ini | |
| 13:53:26 | sean-k-mooney | it has a hardcode pipeline so it needs it even less | |
| 13:54:18 | sean-k-mooney | porting nova to something else woudl be a lot of work as you know better then most | |

| 16:04:26 | gibi | heads up we made openstack-tox-cover on nova non-voting during the weekend to make RC1 possible as it was hanging a lot | |
| 16:04:35 | Uggla | #link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-ci-failures-minimal | |
| 16:04:40 | Uggla | #link https://zuul.openstack.org/builds?project=openstack%2Fnova&project=openstack%2Fplacement&branch=stable%2F*&branch=master&pipeline=periodic-weekly&skip=0 Nova&Placement periodic jobs status | |
| 16:04:55 | dansmith | the cover job has no unique voting function anyway, so no rush to put it back IMHO | |
| 16:04:59 | gibi | the tox cover issue tracked in https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2167088 | |
| 16:05:11 | gmaan | as that is along running job also which take time to pass the test only changes | |
| 16:05:23 | Uggla | gibi, you ruin my surprise effect about tox-cover. :) | |
| 16:05:24 | gibi | it feels like it hits a valid hang somewhere in the functional test | |
| 16:05:29 | gibi | Uggla: sorry :) | |
| 16:05:33 | Uggla | nw | |
| 16:05:41 | gibi | I don't like surprises ;) | |
| 16:05:44 | gmaan | i am worried that is not caught in functional job? | |
| 16:05:49 | lajoskatona | o/ | |
| 16:06:01 | gibi | there is some hang in the functional job too but less frequent | |
| 16:06:06 | gmaan | k | |
| 16:06:09 | gibi | I haven't rootcaused it yet to say it is the same | |
| 16:06:22 | gibi | I will work on this as my time allows | |
| 16:06:49 | gibi | at least the tox cover hand is pinpointed to two test cases | |
| 16:07:00 | gibi | with a somewhat usabel local reproducer | |
| 16:07:05 | gibi | anyhow we can move on | |
| 16:07:19 | Uggla | thx gibi | |
