08:48:55 brinzhang awalende: There may be information about the disk you need with the instance.
08:51:49 awalende Thanks! I found the entry
08:52:16 awalende now to find out which field to manipulate in order to detach it
08:52:45 awalende or is it safe to delete the rows with the non existing volume?
09:20:32 openstackgerrit Boxiang Zhu proposed openstack/nova master: Add host and hypervisor_hostname flag to create server https://review.opendev.org/645520
09:37:30 openstackgerrit Surya Seetharaman proposed openstack/python-novaclient master: [Docs] Update client docs to add reason and locked options https://review.opendev.org/659000
10:50:56 openstackgerrit Hamdy Khader proposed openstack/nova master: [WIP] OVS DPDK port representors support https://review.opendev.org/658785
12:05:26 openstackgerrit Hamdy Khader proposed openstack/os-vif master: [WIP] OVS DPDK port representors support https://review.opendev.org/658786
12:29:36 openstackgerrit Alexandre arents proposed openstack/nova master: Fix live-migration when glance image deleted https://review.opendev.org/659054
12:45:27 kashyap alex_xu: Hi, I have abandoned this spec (the `cpu_model_list` thing) after further discussions w/ the QEMU & libvirt folks: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/642030/
12:57:44 alex_xu kashyap: ok, got it
13:45:27 mdbooth bauzas: I also thought we might have other bugs like https://review.opendev.org/#/c/658845/, so I posted to the ML earlier
13:45:58 bauzas mdbooth: yup that's why I left a comment
13:46:04 mdbooth bauzas: ack
13:46:14 bauzas we have this bug, so we can fix it, but maybe we should also look at other methods
13:46:21 mdbooth bauzas: Indeed
13:47:17 mdbooth bauzas: And be generally stricter about not modifying argument data. It causes a bunch of issues, but I think this is the subtlist I've encountered.
13:48:47 mdbooth Incidentally, this specific issue breaks the '1 task at a time' guard in n-api for all operations which use task state, which is nearly all of them.
13:49:00 mdbooth s/all operations/all instance operations/
13:51:16 openstackgerrit Surya Seetharaman proposed openstack/nova master: [Trivial doc change] Admin can overwrite the locked_reason of an owner https://review.opendev.org/659067
13:56:42 kashyap aspiers: You okay with the "plan" at the end here: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/655193/
13:57:11 kashyap alex_xu: If later we decide that we "really need it", we can always restore it.
14:01:15 kashyap efried: When you're about, bike-shedding, for the file name in 'os-traits': how about the x86.py --> x86-common.py? (Or is it "implied"?)
14:03:26 efried kashyap: We can't change x86.py at this point. And yes, I think common is implied. I would just make an x86 subdirectory with intel.py and amd.py
14:03:39 kashyap (Oh, right.)
14:03:49 kashyap I keep forgetting that "can't ever change" aspect.
14:03:51 kashyap Thx.
14:04:29 efried kashyap: I'm actually not 100% sure of the mechanics. I think you may have to remove x86.py and move the contents to x86/__init__.py
14:04:47 efried It's the strings that get produced that aren't allowed to change.
14:05:05 kashyap Right, I'm not sure either. I'll duke around a bit. This is my first time tipping toes into this repo
14:05:32 kashyap (Trying not to boil any lakes as "first steps" :D)
14:07:13 sean-k-mooney why woudl you move them to __init__.py
14:07:31 sean-k-mooney just to not have to type x86
14:08:13 kashyap sean-k-mooney: I don't know, having x86.py file and x86/ directory in the _same_ directory feels "clumsy".
14:08:29 sean-k-mooney from a general style point of view is strongly dislike haveing __init__.py contain any content ever
14:08:37 kashyap sean-k-mooney: I can live with it; but open to any approach that lets us avoid it
14:09:11 sean-k-mooney we dont currently have an x86 direcotry correct
14:09:31 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/os-traits/tree/master/os_traits/hw/cpu
14:09:42 sean-k-mooney we just have the x86.py
14:09:51 sean-k-mooney why are you creating a directory
14:10:09 kashyap sean-k-mooney: See the discussion on the change here: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/655193/
14:11:14 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Specifically this remark from Eric on PS2:
14:11:15 kashyap hw/cpu/x86.py (common to both Intel and AMD)
14:11:15 kashyap hw/cpu/x86/amd.py (AMD-specific) <== new (but see below)
14:11:15 kashyap hw/cpu/x86/intel.py (Intel-specific) <== new
14:11:34 efried sean-k-mooney: os-traits has a precedent for having attributes in __init__.py
14:12:12 sean-k-mooney im looking but or you do hw/cpu/intel.py hw/cpu/amd.py and hw/cpu/x86.py
14:12:32 sean-k-mooney * or you could do hw/cpu/intel.py hw/cpu/amd.py and hw/cpu/x86.py
14:12:49 efried sean-k-mooney: Point is, both intel and amd are x86
14:12:53 sean-k-mooney yes
14:12:58 efried but have divergent attributes
14:13:04 efried like for this spectre/meltdown stuff
14:13:13 sean-k-mooney well they really should not
14:13:17 efried heh
14:13:18 sean-k-mooney at the traits point of view
14:13:26 efried sean-k-mooney: I mentioned that
14:13:30 efried but kashyap shot me down
14:13:31 sean-k-mooney we shoudl have a common trait where posible
14:13:42 efried yup, read discussion in that patch.
14:14:14 sean-k-mooney kashyap: what was the outcome fo the discussion with openstack security on exposeing thes as traits
14:14:25 kashyap sean-k-mooney: I didn't write to the 'openstack-security' folks.
14:14:42 sean-k-mooney so before we decided on this chagne we shoudl have that disucssion
14:15:14 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Note: at 'traits point of view", it is impossibel to have "divergent attributes". See my last comment
14:15:21 kashyap I carefully discussed it with DanPB yesterday, and posted my discussion
14:16:28 sean-k-mooney sure but just because danpb sates an opion does not mean we will alway follow it but im reading the comments now :)
14:17:30 efried point is, we need HW_CPU_X86_INTEL_FOO and HW_CPU_X86_AMD_BAR as well as HW_CPU_X86_BAZ. I'm just not sure whether that happens with
14:17:30 efried hw/cpu/x86.py: BAZ
14:17:30 efried or
14:17:30 efried hw/cpu/x86/intel.py: FOO
14:17:30 efried hw/cpu/x86/amd.py: BAR
14:17:31 efried hw/cpu/x86/__init__.py: BAZ
14:17:31 efried or we could even leave the existing structure and do
14:17:32 efried hw/cpu/x86.py: INTEL_FOO
14:17:32 efried hw/cpu/x86.py: AMD_BAR
14:17:33 efried hw/cpu/x86.py: BAZ
14:17:50 efried edleafe: Do you have an opinion on this?
14:18:18 edleafe They all come out to the same trait string, right?
14:18:21 sean-k-mooney you can do it with all of the above
14:18:38 kashyap sean-k-mooney: No, you misunderstood me. It's not "because" DanPB said.
14:18:41 kashyap sean-k-mooney: See these two points:
14:18:48 aspiers I'm with sean-k-mooney in that I don't like putting stuff in __init__.py
14:18:48 kashyap * The benefit of HW_CPU_HAS_SPECTRE_CURE is that it glosses over the
14:18:48 kashyap difference between the AMD and Intel flag names for the fix ('IBRS' vs
14:18:51 kashyap 'IBPB'). However, we likely going to want feature- based traits for
14:18:54 kashyap other things: AES, PCID, etc.
14:18:57 kashyap * The HW_CPU_HAS_SPECTRE_CURE is ill-defined :-( since there are many
14:18:59 kashyap Spectre-related bugs.
14:19:06 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Frankly, we're over-thinking on the generic "traits" thing.
14:19:21 kashyap I want to tackle that separately. And first get the granular traits in, without discussing this to the ends of the worlds.
14:19:25 sean-k-mooney kashyap: so traits shoudl not may to qemu feature flags directly
14:19:44 mdbooth stephenfin: I know you called it a nit, but given that I suspect it's a bug it wasn't caught by flake8 I'm going to respin anyway. Thanks for looking!
14:20:08 sean-k-mooney there is no reas an IBRS trait cant map to the IBPB feature on amd and IBRS on intel
14:20:14 kashyap sean-k-mooney: I disagree.
14:20:29 stephenfin mdbooth: Go for it. fwiw, I do have a series to update the hacking version we use but I've WIP'd that til the removal of cells v1 is complete
14:20:31 sean-k-mooney part of os-tratis is to provide a vendor independ set of common traits that can be normalised
14:20:37 edleafe efried: if we're going to be having _INTEL_* and _AMD_* traits, it would make more sense to have them in their own modules
14:20:38 stephenfin There's enough merge conflicts as it is
14:20:49 sean-k-mooney and them mapped to plathform specific thing in the virt dirvers
14:21:02 kashyap efried: Yeah, I'd like to know the answer to your earlier question
14:21:07 kashyap (On the structure)
