| 16:10:35 | jroll | bauzas: "pike node" means a node with a resource class set, yes? | |
| 16:10:46 | mriedem | jamespage: ok it's confusing because of comments like this in the original bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1649527/comments/19 | |
| 16:10:46 | openstack | Launchpad bug 1649527 in OpenStack Compute (nova) newton "nova creates an invalid ethernet/bridge interface definition in virsh xml" [Medium,Fix committed] - Assigned to Roman Podoliaka (rpodolyaka) | |
| 16:11:00 | bauzas | jroll: a node that supports that custom RC | |
| 16:11:08 | mriedem | jamespage: also though libvirt 2.5.0 isn't base xenial | |
| 16:11:13 | mriedem | base xenial libvirt is 1.3.1 right? | |
| 16:11:14 | jroll | bauzas: right, yeah, it would be scheduled that way | |
| 16:11:19 | jamespage | mriedem: nope - its 1.3.1 | |
| 16:11:28 | jamespage | mriedem: that was a somewhat unhelpful comment | |
| 16:11:37 | jroll | bauzas: I'm thinking if we can do the "allocate all resources" thing outside of instance.flavor, we don't need to do this instance.flavor migration | |
| 16:11:55 | jamespage | mriedem: I found the bug history quite confusing as well | |
| 16:12:24 | bauzas | jroll: yeah I tend to agree with you although there could be some corner cases | |
| 16:13:12 | mriedem | jamespage: yeah they later clarified they were running in a container with debian so different versions :/ | |
| 16:13:36 | bauzas | jroll: I'm just afraid of us possibly needing to do like we made for Ocata and just having the scheduler calling placement about custom RCs only if all the nodes are pike | |
| 16:13:37 | mriedem | jamespage: so i guess this didn't affect rhel 7.3 or centos because they are running with a newer libvirt which doesn't cause issues that 1.3.1 does | |
| 16:14:06 | mriedem | jamespage: this isn't just newton right? i mean it would also be broken in ocata wouldn't it? | |
| 16:14:15 | mriedem | i see the backport was merged to newton though https://review.openstack.org/#/c/425637/ | |
| 16:14:28 | mriedem | and we didn't raise the minimum required libvirt in nova in ocata | |
| 16:15:28 | jroll | bauzas: yeah, I see now, because we upgrade scheduler before compute, right? | |
| 16:15:40 | bauzas | jroll: yup | |
| 16:16:05 | jroll | bauzas: which means operators must wait until after the pike deploy to change their flavors. which isn't ideal but I think it's fine? | |
| 16:16:26 | bauzas | jroll: hum no | |
| 16:16:38 | bauzas | jroll: operators can modify their flavors in Ocata | |
| 16:16:52 | bauzas | given it's extra specs, it's just meaningless until Pike, that's it | |
| 16:17:07 | jroll | bauzas: pike scheduler + ocata compute means scheduling on new style flavors would be broken | |
| 16:17:22 | jroll | because we won't be reading resource class | |
| 16:18:03 | bauzas | jroll: yeah the worst case scenario would be all but computes upgraded to Pike, and n-cpus still on Ocata | |
| 16:18:14 | bauzas | jroll: then, if flavors are upgraded, kaboom | |
| 16:18:20 | bauzas | NoValidHosts | |
| 16:18:24 | mriedem | jamespage: so if i'm understanding this correctly, between https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1665698/comments/50 and https://review.openstack.org/#/c/425637/1/releasenotes/notes/libvirt-script-with-empty-path-2b49caa68b05278d.yaml | |
| 16:18:24 | openstack | Launchpad bug 1665698 in libvirt (Ubuntu Yakkety) "/etc/qemu-ifup not allowed by apparmor" [Medium,Triaged] | |
| 16:18:44 | mriedem | jamespage: we want script path to be '' if libvirt < 1.3.3, and None if libvirt >= 1.3.3 yes? | |
| 16:18:51 | jroll | bauzas: right, which I guess is why I need reviews on this, too :) https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/nova-ironic-flavor-transition-plan | |
| 16:19:04 | bauzas | oh, never heard of that yet ^ | |
| 16:19:13 | jroll | bauzas: read more scheduler meeting :P | |
| 16:19:29 | jroll | bauzas: but yeah, I guess my spec kind of depends on this plan being solid | |
| 16:19:49 | bauzas | jroll: heh, not my fault, but my kid's one | |
| 16:19:58 | jroll | bauzas: we log for a reason! | |
| 16:20:01 | jroll | I'm mostly kidding | |
| 16:20:24 | jamespage | mriedem: correct | |
| 16:20:27 | bauzas | argh, no good fake reason to provide, I'm doomed | |
| 16:21:00 | mriedem | jamespage: ok, i'll tinker with seeing how easy a fix that is | |
| 16:21:15 | jamespage | mriedem: thankyou much appreciated | |
| 16:22:51 | jroll | bauzas: line 39-42 there is me walking through rebuild in my head, I think it's okay | |
| 16:27:39 | sgordon | mriedem, jamespage mmm yes | |
| 16:27:56 | sgordon | mriedem, jamespage revert of what specifically? | |
| 16:28:10 | sgordon | mriedem, jamespage libvirt has actually been fixed to handle the old xml more gracefully | |
| 16:28:22 | mriedem | sgordon: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/447169/ | |
| 16:28:46 | mriedem | sgordon: yes but according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1665698/comments/50 that's in libvirt 3.1 | |
| 16:28:46 | openstack | Launchpad bug 1665698 in libvirt (Ubuntu Yakkety) "/etc/qemu-ifup not allowed by apparmor" [Medium,Triaged] | |
| 16:28:46 | jamespage | sgordon: yeah we're all good on forward version compat I think | |
| 16:28:54 | mriedem | which is lightyears from where we'll be testing against in the gate | |
| 16:29:09 | jamespage | its backwards compat with 1.3.1 in Ubuntu Xenial | |
| 16:29:10 | sgordon | mriedem, yes so the distributor should backport it | |
| 16:29:29 | jamespage | backport what exactly? | |
| 16:29:35 | mriedem | the '' or None fix i guess | |
| 16:29:41 | mriedem | but what about someone not using a distro package? | |
| 16:29:48 | jamespage | nova has established min version compats | |
| 16:29:48 | sgordon | jamespage, the libvirt fix | |
| 16:29:49 | mriedem | or using not red hat or ubuntu distro package? | |
| 16:29:56 | mriedem | like suse | |
| 16:30:04 | mriedem | gentoo, etc | |
| 16:30:20 | sgordon | jamespage, yes but you obvs bumped the distro libvirt version at some point or you would not be hitting the issue | |
| 16:30:30 | mriedem | anyway, let me see how hard the conditional version check is in the code before we talk about making packagers handle this :) | |
| 16:30:34 | sgordon | jamespage, which is also why it only appeared on RHEL/CentOS 7.3 | |
| 16:30:59 | jamespage | sgordon: the libvirt version in xenial has been 1.3.1 since 16.04 release last year | |
| 16:31:03 | mriedem | ubuntu has libvirt 1.3.1 in stock 16.04 | |
| 16:31:07 | mriedem | that's what we test with in the gate | |
| 16:31:17 | mriedem | we just don't test with the same vif types that this hits | |
| 16:31:45 | sgordon | jamespage, the problem was only introduced in libvirt 1.3.2 | |
| 16:31:54 | sgordon | jamespage, so at some point it's been brought in via a backport | |
| 16:33:13 | mriedem | sgordon: why does the release note, that i think you wrote, say 1.3.3? https://review.openstack.org/#/c/411936/6/releasenotes/notes/libvirt-script-with-empty-path-2b49caa68b05278d.yaml | |
| 16:33:34 | jamespage | behaviour changed in 1.3.3 | |
| 16:34:49 | johnthetubaguy | dane-fichter: would be good to catch up on those | |
| 16:34:59 | cfriesen | mriedem: thanks for the updates and approval on the flavor API spec. you got to them before I even checked. :) | |
| 16:35:27 | mriedem | is there a way to see which tags are applied to a libvirt commit? i.e. https://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commit;h=9c17d665fdc5f0ab74500a14c30627014c11b2c0 | |
| 16:36:25 | mriedem | nvm it's 1.3.3 | |
| 16:36:31 | mriedem | because 1.3.2 was https://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commit;h=dca504a1b977060b844393daedd0da4bdb21ee76 | |
| 16:37:59 | cfriesen | I don't see any tags applied to that commit. were you wondering what branch it was in? | |
| 16:38:12 | mriedem | no i sorted it out | |
| 16:38:23 | cfriesen | I usually use gitk to figure out branches/versions/etc. | |
| 16:38:45 | cfriesen | it shows "follows" and "preceeds" versions. | |
| 16:39:40 | mriedem | now to see if os-vif is doing any of this | |
| 16:40:33 | mriedem | doesn't look like it, whew | |
| 16:41:13 | mriedem | so this affects ivs_ethernet, iovisor, midonet, tap and vrouter | |
| 16:41:23 | mriedem | sean-k-mooney: ^ we don't have os-vif support for those vif types yet right? | |
| 16:42:04 | mriedem | doesn't look like it | |
| 16:53:51 | sgordon | mriedem, digging back through the commentary i think the right approach is the branch you suggest | |
| 16:54:17 | mriedem | should have a patch up shortly | |
| 16:54:18 | sgordon | mriedem, a straight revert is just going to switch back to the other group of upset operators yelling about it because the are on libvirt >= 1.3.3 | |
| 16:54:22 | mriedem | this is going to be a bit of a mess in newton i suspect | |
| 16:54:30 | sgordon | mriedem, yeapppp | |
| 16:54:39 | mriedem | in ocata we have access to the libvirt version in the vif code | |
| 16:54:45 | mriedem | but i don't think i have that access in newton | |
| 16:54:50 | mriedem | so will have to poke around | |
| 16:54:54 | sgordon | mriedem, the revert approach also removed the rel note but given the combinations involved here i still think we will want to add one | |
| 16:55:07 | sgordon | mriedem, "if you see this behavior then do we have a deal for you..." | |
| 16:55:24 | mriedem | buy one get one half off bug sale?! | |
| 17:08:26 | johnthetubaguy | #success First few patches adding real docs for policy have now merged in Nova. A much improved sample file: https://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/sample_policy.html | |
| 17:08:28 | openstackstatus | johnthetubaguy: Added success to Success page | |
