23:20:53 sean-k-mooney vms can still be killed if a numa node has no memoy left and the kernel need to allocate some on that node but the host othersise has free ram
23:21:33 sean-k-mooney our just make all your vms use hugepages that works too
23:25:06 cfriesen that's what we do by default (2M pages)
23:26:36 sean-k-mooney cfriesen: ya we spent 6 months trying to track down what was causeing OOM to kill our vms in the the intel nfv ci and it turned out to be this. hugepages fixed it
23:27:31 sean-k-mooney the anoying thing was it took about 2-3 weeks to start showing up as it need the memory to become fragmented enough to force it

07:56:50 bauzas good morning folks
08:01:46 hrw Graphical console stuff got merged! yay and hurray!
08:10:28 bauzas hrw: you might be interested in https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1741319
08:10:28 openstack Launchpad bug 1741319 in OpenStack nova-compute charm "arm64: Migration pre-check error: CPU doesn't have compatibility." [Medium,Incomplete]
08:10:42 bauzas hrw: just let me know if that's a valid bug so I can triage it
08:11:35 hrw bauzas: there is no cpu_model = host-model on aarch64
08:12:07 hrw bauzas: so bug is valid and not solvable
08:12:22 bauzas hrw: that's what I understood
08:12:32 bauzas since we compare models for live migrating
08:14:28 hrw added note
08:15:34 bauzas hrw: so, for the moment, live-migration isn't supported for ARM64, I guess then
08:15:49 bauzas if so, we should amend the doc
08:15:49 hrw bauzas: not quite.
08:16:06 hrw bauzas: you may migrate but between same cpus
08:16:36 hrw will ask our testers to check it (as my setup is all-in-one)
08:17:11 bauzas hrw: the reporter says they have exact CPUs
08:17:15 bauzas exact same*
08:17:33 bauzas hrw: but the point is, nova is checking something that ARM64 libvirt doesn't pass, that's ity
08:17:45 hrw ok
08:18:07 bauzas so that probably needs some kind of discussion about the possible solutions
08:18:25 bauzas we could conditionally don't care of cpu models if arm64
08:18:32 bauzas or we could ask libvirt to provide a single one
08:18:49 bauzas I tend to consider the latter as the best one
08:19:07 hrw the problem is that even kernel does not provide cpu model
08:19:18 bauzas I know
08:19:21 hrw /proc/cpuinfo is useless
08:19:32 bauzas it's all about having the same XML
08:19:37 hrw DMI data is useless too
08:19:38 bauzas hence the interface
08:20:15 hrw bauzas: you can not set 'random' values as cpu model. that's why libvirt does not set that at all
08:22:25 bauzas I see
08:22:57 bauzas hrw: anyway, I leave the bug one
08:22:59 bauzas open*
08:23:00 hrw sure
08:23:13 bauzas that's worth considering the options
08:23:29 bauzas hrw: but we also have a support matrix page
08:23:46 bauzas hrw: and I feel we should explain that nova live-migration isn't supported for aarch64
08:23:56 bauzas 'not supported' doesn't mean that you can't do
08:24:05 bauzas just that you have to workaround that
08:24:31 bauzas hrw: know the support matrix ?
08:24:53 hrw bauzas: heard about it but not checked
08:25:03 bauzas ok, giving you the link
08:25:51 bauzas hrw: https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/user/support-matrix.html and https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/user/feature-classification.html
08:26:03 hrw thx
08:26:38 hrw looks like we need to fill whole new column ;D
08:28:48 bauzas hrw: you got my idea
08:29:00 openstackgerrit Thomas Goirand proposed openstack/python-novaclient master: Fix crashing console-log https://review.openstack.org/541610
08:35:34 bauzas hrw: volunteer for documenting it ? if so, ping me when your change is up :)
08:35:48 bauzas hrw: ideally, I'd love to merge it before RC1 which is tomorow
08:35:49 hrw bauzas: mailing my team now
08:35:53 bauzas tomorrow
08:36:13 hrw bauzas: as I do not have multinode setup which is required for some tests
08:36:26 bauzas I'm just surprised to see operators beginning to deploy on ARM64 machines while Nova doesn't officially support it
08:36:42 bauzas hrw: there is a question mark lebelling possible
08:36:46 bauzas labelling
08:36:57 bauzas like say "?" if you don't know the answer yet
08:36:59 hrw bauzas: we concentrated more on getting whole stack running more than on small issues here and there
08:37:10 bauzas that's understandable
08:37:36 hrw bauzas: Kolla work took most of my previous year and it paid off nicely.
08:37:42 bauzas hrw: I have a couple of Pi3 at home, do you think I could test myself ? ;)
08:38:09 hrw I just run a job on Jenkins and in 2.5h I have ~250 images built and pushed to hub.docker so we can use those
08:38:54 hrw bauzas: haha
08:39:25 hrw I hope that once we move jenkins builder to better network I will fit build phase in 1.5h
08:41:23 rabel could we merge https://review.openstack.org/#/c/535871/ ? it's a backport of a small docu fix to stable/pike
