| 16:21:43 | panda | :) | |
| 16:21:47 | aspiers | :) | |
| 16:21:50 | jaypipes | panda: sorry, a "Panda" is a pet virtual machine that can not be killed otherwise it's an international incident :) | |
| 16:22:01 | jaypipes | sorry for waking you! | |
| 16:22:05 | panda | oh my. | |
| 16:23:11 | mriedem | oh it also looks like swap volume will work on root volumes, whereas detach / attach does not (yet) | |
| 16:23:37 | jaypipes | mriedem: yuck. | |
| 16:23:39 | jaypipes | :P | |
| 16:23:46 | panda | nice to know more nice uses of my nick :) | |
| 16:23:46 | aspiers | jaypipes: I guess I need to update my slides https://youtu.be/uMCMDF9VkYk?t=483 | |
| 16:24:29 | jaypipes | aspiers: yes. yes you do. | |
| 16:24:45 | jaypipes | aspiers: and add a Big Lebowski reference while you're at it. | |
| 16:24:52 | aspiers | good plan | |
| 16:40:20 | openstackgerrit | Kashyap Chamarthy proposed openstack/nova master: libvirt: Add HW_CPU_X86_* traits for Meltdown/Spectre mitigation https://review.opendev.org/655191 | |
| 16:42:12 | openstackgerrit | Merged openstack/nova-specs master: Delete approved template in move_implemented_specs https://review.opendev.org/592755 | |
| 16:45:40 | openstackgerrit | Kashyap Chamarthy proposed openstack/os-traits master: Add CPU traits for Meltdown/Spectre mitigation https://review.opendev.org/655193 | |
| 16:46:41 | kashyap | Any "Traits People", please let me know if I got the above even partly right... | |
| 16:47:34 | efried | aspiers: I was just doing that in the review when I received an interrupt, getting back to it now. | |
| 16:47:51 | aspiers | efried: if it's easier you can just educate me here | |
| 16:48:05 | sean-k-mooney | kashyap: do we need seperate VIRT-SSDB and AMD-SSDB traits | |
| 16:48:13 | aspiers | efried: since I'll probably have questions which the extra round trip latency from Gerrit won't help | |
| 16:48:26 | efried | aspiers: okay, sure. One minute... | |
| 16:48:27 | kashyap | sean-k-mooney: Yes, we do. | |
| 16:48:40 | sean-k-mooney | why? | |
| 16:49:01 | kashyap | sean-k-mooney: Let me quote the upstream QEMU documentation: | |
| 16:49:03 | kashyap | [quote] | |
| 16:49:03 | kashyap | virt-ssbd | |
| 16:49:04 | kashyap | Required to enable the CVE-2018-3639 fix. Not included by default in any AMD CPU model. Must be explicitly turned on for all AMD CPU models. This should be provided to guests, even if amd-ssbd is also provided, for maximum guest compatibility. Note for some QEMU / libvirt versions, this must be force enabled when when using “Host model”, because this is a virtual feature that doesn’t exist | |
| 16:49:10 | kashyap | in the physical host CPUs. | |
| 16:49:13 | kashyap | [/quote] | |
| 16:49:20 | kashyap | Note the: *even if amd-ssbd- is also provided* part. | |
| 16:49:42 | kashyap | sean-k-mooney: They are separate CPU flags, so of course we need separate traits. | |
| 16:49:57 | sean-k-mooney | well we dont that is basically my point | |
| 16:50:04 | kashyap | Oh? | |
| 16:50:14 | kashyap | sean-k-mooney: What do you mean? | |
| 16:50:28 | sean-k-mooney | there does not need to be a 1:1 mapping between tratis adn cpus flags | |
| 16:50:39 | sean-k-mooney | the traits dont impact the xml generation | |
| 16:50:56 | sean-k-mooney | so for the tratis we need to think about whgat we schdule on | |
| 16:50:56 | kashyap | Please comment in the review; I need to leave the library. It's closing | |
| 16:51:07 | sean-k-mooney | sure will do | |
| 16:51:09 | kashyap | Much appreciated | |
| 16:51:23 | artom | What's the ? at the beginning of https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/95e782dfd86caa4201d28ee86ba2bb475e0a409f/devstack/tempest-dsvm-lvm-rc#L33 ? | |
| 16:51:38 | artom | 'r="^(?!.*"' | |
| 16:51:48 | artom | I thought I groked regex, but this confuses me. | |
| 16:52:04 | artom | ? would mean 0 or 1, right? So... "maybe a (" ? | |
| 16:52:08 | artom | But... why? | |
| 16:52:11 | aspiers | that's a negative look-ahead assertion | |
| 16:53:01 | aspiers | (?!foo.*bar) means "foo.*bar can't come next" | |
| 16:53:26 | efried | ..."but don't capture it" | |
| 16:53:30 | aspiers | right | |
| 16:53:42 | aspiers | it's one of the more obscure features of pcre, been around since Perl 5 days though | |
| 16:53:51 | artom | Ah, I was reading it as a quantifier | |
| 16:53:54 | artom | Thanks aspiers | |
| 16:53:59 | aspiers | https://xkcd.com/208/ is the obvious reference here | |
| 16:54:16 | artom | *snerk* | |
| 16:54:40 | artom | More like https://xkcd.com/1171/ | |
| 16:54:53 | aspiers | hahahaha | |
| 16:54:55 | aspiers | that's good | |
| 16:55:16 | efried | Ye gods, my goats are freaking out. aspiers, back atcha in 5... | |
| 16:55:43 | efried | meanwhile, digest this: | |
| 16:55:43 | efried | Okay, so what I had been thinking thus far was that you would be implementing a request filter method here: | |
| 16:55:43 | efried | https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/scheduler/request_filter.py | |
| 16:55:43 | efried | Those methods get the RequestSpec, which has the image and flavor in it, so you can grab encrypt_mem=true from either/both. | |
| 16:56:00 | artom | Or the well known "Some people, when confronted with a problem, think “I know, I'll use regular expressions.” Now they have two problems. " | |
| 16:56:51 | aspiers | efried: ahah! yep, makes sense | |
| 16:56:52 | artom | efried, you confuse me. A Francophone American BJJ practitioner (right? I seem to remember that from somewhere) with goats. | |
| 16:59:35 | aspiers | artom: my Perl regexp knowledge comes from the same era as my personal website https://twitter.com/adamspiers/status/1115929350736613376 | |
| 16:59:48 | aspiers | I should try not to think too much about how long ago that is | |
| 17:02:03 | artom | Your Twitter picture doesn't fit your website's copyright notice :) | |
| 17:02:10 | artom | Unless you were, like, 10 when you made it | |
| 17:02:15 | artom | (The website, not the picture) | |
| 17:03:38 | artom | Oh god it's still out there: http://web.archive.org/web/20040611101606/http://coth.no-ip.org/ | |
| 17:03:49 | artom | Whatever pride I have left just went out the window | |
| 17:03:53 | stephenfin | efried: Spent the day working on summit stuff but I'll create the nova-console removal (specless) BP tomorrow, plus more for nova-consoleauth removal (I've that series drafted already). Hit me if I don't | |
| 17:03:54 | artom | I wasn't even that your when I made that | |
| 17:04:06 | artom | *that young | |
| 17:04:09 | stephenfin | (though not really. I imagine that would hurt) | |
| 17:04:11 | artom | Like, 19 | |
| 17:06:23 | aspiers | haha | |
| 17:06:53 | aspiers | artom: the internet is a cache of dirty secrets | |
| 17:07:09 | aspiers | artom: I was 20 in 1995 | |
| 17:07:29 | artom | So we're literally the same age, what are you feeling old for? | |
| 17:07:38 | artom | Wait, no, I fail at math | |
| 17:07:40 | artom | I was 10 | |
| 17:07:42 | aspiers | LOL | |
| 17:08:13 | artom | Oh god, more of my "work": http://web.archive.org/web/20021010075531/http://geocities.com/the_lambda_place/ | |
| 17:08:47 | artom | You're grounded, go to your room | |
| 17:09:00 | aspiers | hahahaha | |
| 17:09:10 | aspiers | artom: looks disturbingly similar to https://www.adamspiers.org/computing/quake/ | |
| 17:09:32 | aspiers | I think that deserves to be labelled as "Web 0.2" | |
| 17:10:01 | artom | aspiers, well now adze has to be your Friday nick | |
| 17:10:04 | efried | catching up (in reverse order) | |
| 17:10:08 | aspiers | nooooo | |
| 17:10:24 | aspiers | efried: best if you skip the last 10 minutes ;-) | |
| 17:10:32 | efried | I'm the same age as artom, give or take a year. | |
| 17:10:36 | efried | stephenfin: ack, thanks | |
| 17:10:49 | efried | I used to be a perl wiz, actually taught a class at one time | |
| 17:11:24 | efried | and artom yes, all of those things. And http://www.thunderpony.com and I was also a child actor :P | |
| 17:11:34 | efried | and regular expressions are awesome. | |
| 17:11:43 | efried | now, back to request filters... | |
