| 12:15:34 | pvc_ | compute node is a physical server | |
| 12:15:42 | pvc_ | on docs it said the grid driver | |
| 12:15:48 | pvc_ | but this is the driver i installed | |
| 12:16:01 | pvc_ | installed NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-390.72-vgpu-kvm.run | |
| 12:16:10 | pvc_ | i have this grid driver NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-390.75-grid.run | |
| 12:17:03 | sean-k-mooney | pvc_: oh ok i think i understand the issue then | |
| 12:17:12 | sean-k-mooney | you install the guest driver on the host | |
| 12:17:25 | pvc_ | yes sean-k-mooney | |
| 12:17:25 | pvc_ | to enable this | |
| 12:17:31 | pvc_ | /sys/class/mdev_bus/*/mdev_supported_types | |
| 12:18:04 | pvc_ | i install the driver on my compute node ( baremetal server ) im using a tripleo-deployment | |
| 12:22:26 | aperevalov | hello, do nova or neutron has functional test for direct (SR-IOV) port (something like tempest test)? | |
| 12:22:26 | pvc_ | sean-k-mooney what will i do then? | |
| 12:23:37 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: i dont belive so in upstream tempest. neutron may have fullstack test but ingerneral our sriov testing is limited | |
| 12:24:58 | sean-k-mooney | pvc_: this seams to be a driver issue not a nova one. there is little more advice i can give other then they to follow the nvida docs form start to finish exactly | |
| 12:25:01 | aperevalov | sean-k-mooney: I assume, if such functional test exists it uses real HW with SR-IOV, but not simulators or emulators. | |
| 12:25:24 | pvc_ | so you think i installed the grid one? | |
| 12:25:31 | pvc_ | my baremetal is centos 7 | |
| 12:25:34 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: so the fact we can use simulator/emulators for sriov is the main reason we have such limited testing | |
| 12:25:58 | sean-k-mooney | pvc_: yes you need to install the grid one | |
| 12:26:13 | sean-k-mooney | at least i think so. | |
| 12:26:26 | pvc_ | okay wait | |
| 12:27:09 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: i recently looked at using the netdevsim kernel module for sriov testing but it only emulates the kernel netdevs it does not emulate the pci devices or virtual function so we cant use it for testing | |
| 12:28:40 | aperevalov | sean-k-mooney: I checked netdevsim on the latest kernel too, there are no device to put it into docker container. Docker container it's because I'm doing such research for kuryr-kubernetes. | |
| 12:29:49 | aperevalov | sean-k-mooney: yes netdevsim is based on its own bus, but not pci. I also found attemp to submit to QEMU's pci emulation the SR-IOV support. | |
| 12:30:36 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: yes so there is a netdev but no pci device on the virtual pci device. so you can use ip link and allocate vfs via sysfs but they dont show up on the virtual pci bus | |
| 12:31:20 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: yes i have see that in the past but that wont help us with testing as we would need the hosting vms provided by the could providers to emulate pci device that support sriov | |
| 12:31:30 | aperevalov | sean-k-mooney: but it was postponed due to lack of existing working qemu drivers, initial author suggested copied e1000, but it wasn't in working condition. | |
| 12:32:21 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: so first qemu would have to be extended then libvirt and then nova. once that is done we would need cloud providers to proved devices with virt sriov capable nics then we could start using it in the upstream gate | |
| 12:32:41 | sean-k-mooney | *provided vms with ... | |
| 12:33:29 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: effectivly we rely on thirdpart cis to test sriov. either intels or melonox's ci | |
| 12:33:54 | sean-k-mooney | intels ci was intented to have signifcatily more sriov testing then it currently has but that never happened | |
| 12:34:31 | aperevalov | sean-k-mooney, I see it's a long way, and seems netdevsim (just kernel module) looks like easiest (if kernel community will be agreed to bind it with pci bus). | |
| 12:35:50 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: most people dont know that sr-iov is a specificaiton from the PCI-SIG i dont think the current netdevsim moudle is technically a confroming sriov implentaiton without the pci emulation | |
| 12:36:19 | pvc_ | sean-k-mooney ls: cannot access /sys/class/mdev_bus/*/mdev_supported_types: No such file or directory | |
| 12:36:28 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: that said its a netdev simulator not a sriov simulator so they skipped the bits they did not need for there own testing | |
| 12:36:32 | pvc_ | i reboot again to reflect the new driver | |
| 12:38:35 | aperevalov | sean-k-mooney: ok, I'll talk with authors of netdevsim. Thank you for information. BTW is intel or mellanox ci is publicly available. Or that work is going through their teems involved into openstack community? | |
| 12:40:40 | aperevalov | sean-k-mooney: I think moshele knows it. | |
| 12:41:18 | pvc_ | hi sean-k-mooney | |
| 12:41:20 | moshele | aperevalov: I know what? | |
| 12:41:30 | pvc_ | after installign the grid driver the mdev is gone | |
| 12:41:33 | sean-k-mooney | so i used to work at intel and one of my roles there was product owner of the intel nfv ci. it used to fall to the upstream teams to identify which features needed ci testing and either add it or request that the team maintaining it add it to there backlog | |
| 12:41:33 | pvc_ | ls: cannot access /sys/class/mdev_bus/*/mdev_supported_types: No such file or directory | |
| 12:41:59 | pvc_ | sean-k-mooney any ideas? ls: cannot access /sys/class/mdev_bus/*/mdev_supported_types: No such file or directory | |
| 12:42:13 | pvc_ | after installing the grid driver only not the vgpu | |
| 12:42:13 | sean-k-mooney | im not sure how the intel nfv ci currently works but if you reach out to the new maintianer im sure they will respond | |
| 12:45:30 | moshele | aperevalov: The Mellanox CI is public but not part of the openstack community. and I think intel CI is the same, because it depend on nic vendor | |
| 12:45:33 | sean-k-mooney | pvc_: sorry not really. as i said this seams to be an nvidia driver issue. i dod not have acess to the hardware to test it my self so beyond reading there docs there is not much more advice i can give | |
| 12:46:06 | pvc_ | but sean-k-mooney when i install the kvm-vgpu i can list the mdev | |
| 12:47:03 | aperevalov | moshele: does it use in gerrit integration tests by zuul? | |
| 12:48:32 | moshele | aperevalov: we run tempest scenarios and configure the tempest to use vnic_type=direct | |
| 12:49:35 | moshele | aperevalov: see https://github.com/openstack/tempest/blob/master/tempest/config.py#L628 | |
| 12:50:10 | sean-k-mooney | moshele: oh when was that option added? | |

| 12:50:39 | moshele | sean-k-mooney: long time ago | |
| 12:51:02 | pvc_ | vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1 | |
| 12:51:07 | pvc_ | sean-k-mooney vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1? | |
| 12:51:19 | sean-k-mooney | moshele: cool aperevalov the intel ci does somthing similar | |
| 12:52:07 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: the intel ci uses the standard senario test but addes extraflaovr extraspecs for cpu pinning hugepages numa toplogy exctra | |
| 12:52:44 | aperevalov | sean-k-mooney: If I trully understood, kuryr-kubernetes (tempest test) can also be running there? | |
| 12:52:47 | sean-k-mooney | pvc_: are you getting a message in dmesg? vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1 is specificaly for working around old buggy hardware | |
| 12:53:28 | sean-k-mooney | aperevalov: the intel nfv ci does not load the kuryr-kuberntese tempest module or deploy tempetst | |
| 12:53:40 | sean-k-mooney | at least it didnt when i was invovled with it | |
| 12:53:52 | pvc_ | Oct 23 12:53:40 overcloud-novacompute-0 journal: 2018-10-23 12:53:40.708+0000: 3128: warning : virDomainAuditHostdev:424 : Unexpected hostdev type while en | |

| 13:05:38 | sean-k-mooney | pvc_: ok but that is not an nova issue. its a either a libvirt or a docker/triplo issue assuming you can acess /sys/bus/pci/devices/0003:01:05.1/config from the host. | |
| 13:06:56 | pvc_ | there is no 0003:01:01.1 sean | |
| 13:15:10 | pvc_ | sean-k-mooney is libvirtd not running is not an issue? | |

| 13:53:03 | pvc_ | hi sean-k-moone do i need to hide the hypervisor of the image? | |
| 13:53:12 | pvc_ | hi sean-k-mooney do i need to hide the hypervisor of the image? | |
| 13:53:13 | alex_xu | jaypipes: for https://review.openstack.org/#/c/555081, are you saying that the user must specify guest numa topology when using resources:PCPU=1 or resources:VCPU=1 | |
| 13:54:42 | sean-k-mooney | alex_xu: im not suer if cpu pinning auto creates a numa toplogy today but it is does not its one of the few numa specifc things that does not | |
| 13:56:16 | pvc_ | sean-k-mooney i have an error on my XML | |
| 13:56:53 | pvc_ | 2bf12bf5 - default default] Error launching a defined domain with XML: <domain type='kvm'> | |
| 13:57:29 | alex_xu | sean-k-mooney: yes, I also think that. If the flavor doesn't include any guest numa topo, then we will get a None value for the InstanceTopologyObj. But jaypipes still want to use InstnaceTopology to store the cpu pinning. that is my confuse. | |
| 13:58:49 | sean-k-mooney | alex_xu: well cpus have numa affintiy so i would be fine with saying if your request pinning you now have a numa toploy of 1 numa node for the vm unless you set a numa toploygy explcitly | |
| 13:58:57 | sean-k-mooney | alex_xu: we do this for hugepages | |
| 13:59:25 | sean-k-mooney | personly i have normally argued against that but we have too much presdent to change it at this point | |
