15:57:17 mriedem which would be a bug since....juno?
15:59:38 mriedem johnthetubaguy_: i added you to https://review.openstack.org/#/c/552078/ in case you can give any feedback before i rev it
16:00:34 johnthetubaguy_ mriedem: will try take a peak at that, been out at a conference-ey thing all week, so miles behind the curve right now
16:01:28 mriedem ack thanks
16:01:56 cfriesen mriedem: I think the issue is more that we don't recalculate the numa topology on a rebuild....we actually used to do a claim on a rebuild
16:02:04 mriedem johnthetubaguy_: were these guys there? https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sVw0i5Rd_Is/maxresdefault.jpg
16:02:22 mriedem cfriesen: when did we ever do a claim on a rebuild?
16:02:29 mriedem and don't confuse rebuild with evacuate
16:02:49 cfriesen mriedem: yeah, you're right it was for the evac case.
16:02:49 johnthetubaguy_ mriedem: I hadn't noticed the resemblance till just now, but yes they were
16:03:32 johnthetubaguy_ mriedem: although it probably makes me scooter
16:04:02 mriedem ha
16:04:11 jgwentworth mriedem: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/561261
16:04:28 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Implement certificate_utils https://review.openstack.org/479949
16:04:29 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Add trusted_image_certificates to REST API https://review.openstack.org/486204
16:04:30 openstackgerrit Dan Smith proposed openstack/nova master: Plumb trusted_certs through libvirt driver image paths https://review.openstack.org/561262
16:04:39 cfriesen mriedem: you going to raise a bug report for the image validation on rebuild?
16:04:48 mriedem cfriesen: no, can you please?
16:04:51 cfriesen sure
16:04:55 mriedem thanks
16:06:00 jgwentworth superdan, mriedem, leakypipes, alex_xu, johnthetubaguy_, finucannot, bauzas, fried_rice: been meaning to ask for review on the rocky priorities doc page https://review.openstack.org/#/c/557796
16:06:51 mriedem ack
16:07:05 fried_rice jgwentworth: There was a typo it looked like Mel wanted to fix. Otherwise I'm +1 (discussion inline leading to possible external actions, not in the patch)
16:07:23 fried_rice jgwentworth: ...a typo and a link
16:07:50 jgwentworth oh, right. I forgot
16:08:11 jgwentworth I don't think there's a way to filter only Approved blueprints in launchpad, which sucks
16:08:26 jgwentworth for linking
16:09:29 fried_rice jgwentworth: There is some mystical querystring syntax that only mriedem knows how to use.
16:10:10 jgwentworth I thought I've asked him about that before. maybe he's holding out on me
16:10:56 mriedem not in the UI that i know of,
16:10:59 mriedem via the REST API yes
16:11:09 superdan I think LP has a bunch of inaccessible query strings you can use
16:11:13 mriedem right
16:11:32 mriedem https://github.com/openstack/nova-specs/blob/master/tools/move_implemented_specs.py
16:12:40 sahid superdan: i saw your comments and questioning on the tx/rx queue size patch. I tried to give more details I hope that is going to help
16:15:31 superdan sahid: okay the thing I'm worried about is I thought that the guest had to support vhost (or is it vhostuser?) in a specific way, and I haven't gone to chase down all the places where we choose between those different types of virtio backends
16:15:31 jgwentworth mriedem: cool script
16:18:22 cfriesen mriedem: here's the bug:
16:18:23 cfriesen LOG.info("Device %s not found in instance.",
16:18:25 cfriesen disk_dev, instance=instance
16:18:30 cfriesen grr......https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1763766
16:18:30 openstack Launchpad bug 1763766 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "nova needs to disallow topology changes on image rebuild" [Undecided,New]
16:20:14 superdan sahid: okay re-reading this with your context I have a little better idea on what to look at
16:20:20 sahid superdan: the driver are on the guest OS. that is your question?
16:20:23 superdan sahid: I'll try to do that while you wor on your unit test
16:20:32 superdan sahid: yeah, the guest
16:21:02 superdan sahid: I thought that if we specify one of those (I think vhostuser) the guest _has_ to have something new enough to support it?
16:21:15 superdan although maybe that doesn't matter since you're only overriding back to vhost/
16:22:51 superdan sahid: I guess it would be less confusing if you did your refactor of get_base_config() first
16:23:09 mriedem jgwentworth: one thing i've always meant to do with that is move the validation that the spec filename matches the blueprint in LP into the doc/test validation code that runs on each patch
16:23:17 sahid well for vhostuser the virtio driver needs to be recent enough and for vhost the kernel recent enough
16:23:18 superdan sahid: can/do we validate some of these types in upstream CI?
16:23:19 mriedem since people frequently make that mistake and then we have to fix it up later
16:24:01 jgwentworth mriedem: you mean in the tox run of nova-specs
16:24:06 mriedem yeah
16:24:08 sahid superdan: yes probably i was thinking about to refactor that method first...
16:24:08 superdan sahid: yeah, I'm just trying to make sure we're not ever selecting something different after this patch, or at least, selecting something different than what would work today
16:24:20 sahid oh i see
16:24:22 jgwentworth makes sense
16:24:26 sahid normally no :)
16:24:51 superdan sahid: if you did that first, then if we have a problem with this later, it would point to the refactor patch instead of your queues patch which would be better I think
16:25:13 superdan sahid: "if we had a problem" meaning.. we selected vhostuser when we should/would have selected vhost or something
16:26:19 jgwentworth mriedem: I think the only wrinkle there could be the LP timeouts that I've run into a fair bit blocking people's specs from passing the tox check
16:26:47 sahid superdan: the thing is the refactor could be big i wanted to limit the scope
16:27:23 sahid i will have to touch lot of thing like the multiqueue support
16:27:41 superdan sahid: so we call all of this from a block that says "if os_vif, do _get_config_os_vif(), otherwise call these per-type methods"
16:28:00 superdan sahid: do we call the os_vif path in this case or not?
16:28:29 sahid superdan: yes for bridge
16:29:01 sahid and actually for vhostuser
16:29:59 superdan okay, so, vif_type could be bridge, where we end up with driver as qemu or vhost, and then vif_type could be vhostuser where we always have driver as vhostuser, is that right?
16:30:13 sahid yes that is the point
16:30:27 superdan any other types that would have driver=vhost
16:30:27 superdan /
16:30:28 superdan ?
16:30:47 sahid yes except if the virt_type is qemu
16:31:27 mriedem jgwentworth: yeah good point
16:31:38 superdan sahid: I'm not sure I know what you mean.. bridge can be vhost or qemu, are there things other than bridge that can use vhost as the driver?
16:32:45 superdan oh, virt-type you meant parallels being the alternative I guess
16:32:52 sahid i mean we always want driver=vhost except when virt-type!=kvm
16:33:55 sahid i need to check my thinking is other driver may use vhost
16:34:02 sahid other vif
16:34:28 openstackgerrit ayoung proposed openstack/nova master: Set scope_types for admin password policies https://review.openstack.org/553613
16:34:55 superdan sahid: did you say that vhostuser would go through os_vif now too?
16:36:15 sahid i'm not sure i understand what you mean by go throught os_vif
16:37:05 sahid all ovs and linux bridge vifs pass go through os_vif
16:37:14 sahid here we are configuring guest xml
16:37:45 sahid os vif is configuring the network on host
16:38:02 superdan sahid: this: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/libvirt/vif.py#L554-L559
16:38:29 superdan because if we take that path, we never call get_config_vhostuser()
16:39:00 sahid get_base_config is called anytime, and yes we have a specific class in os-vif for vhostuser
16:39:08 sahid everytime
16:39:30 superdan sahid: right, so will this ever get run? https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/libvirt/vif.py#L420
16:39:44 sahid but no real relation is just about to pass some metadata which will be used by ovs
16:40:32 sahid hum that is why i said i need to double check i think vrouter is using that method
16:40:59 sahid but perhaps they now have a plugin in os_vif
16:41:04 superdan okay I'm not sure how that would get called
16:42:47 sahid superdan: i just check, you think we sould remove it?
16:43:28 superdan sahid: well, your patch modifies it, and it's one of the things I was trying to verify, so if it's dead code then we should remove it so I don't have to ask questions about whether or not your changes are correct :)
16:45:13 sahid i'm just asking myself why we don't have removed it when we have introduced it in os_vif
16:45:31 sahid i will try to find the git commit log
