#openstack-nova - 2019-07-18
09:27:25 kashyap (I'm asking because, I'm providing a data point for those who are mailing lists, and are considering web-based workflows, GitLab/GitHub; not Gerrit at this point)
09:27:45 kashyap I think `gertty` would be another for those who like the offline caching and terminal-based reviews
09:29:44 sean-k-mooney its mainly git review for me. with web for review. i strongly dislike mailing list based workflows to the point that unless that project also has patchwork i almost entirly avoid them
09:29:59 sean-k-mooney at least when it comes to code reviews
09:30:06 sean-k-mooney gertty if fine for reviewing
09:30:35 sean-k-mooney but its offline asspect comes at the cost that it needs to build up an sql database of the open changes
09:30:45 sean-k-mooney that can be slow with large repos like nova
09:31:15 gibi efried: I added comments to https://review.opendev.org/#/c/612497
09:31:39 kashyap I maintain Gertty in Fedora, FWIW, because I enjoy the offline ability. And the DB build-up is a negligible cost
09:31:50 kashyap sean-k-mooney: It's not SQL; but Berkely
09:32:07 sean-k-mooney kashyap: no is sqlight3
09:32:11 kashyap Ah, right
09:32:13 kashyap Sorry
09:33:52 sean-k-mooney there are allo tools like https://github.com/openstack-infra/git-restack or https://github.com/dhellmann/git-nit
09:34:28 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Thanks; /me checks
09:34:56 sean-k-mooney kashyap: personally i find mailing list much slower and harder to follow since you have to constuct all that tooling yourself
09:34:58 kashyap Ah, didn't know of them
09:35:40 sean-k-mooney git restack is old and not really uses much i think
09:36:31 sean-k-mooney personally i found doing a interactive rebase manullay to the same base commit was just as quick
09:36:59 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Nod. (But the kernel and other systems folks still maintain mailing lists are the "best way" to manage large projects as kernel: https://lwn.net/Articles/702177/)
09:37:12 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Okay, thanks for the opinion and notes :-)
09:39:59 bauzas alex_xu: ack, will look
09:40:08 alex_xu bauzas: thanks
09:42:43 bauzas alex_xu: wow, that's a massive refactoring, I'll do this this afternoon
09:42:48 bauzas thanks for it
09:43:06 bauzas alex_xu: FWIW, I'm also working on https://review.opendev.org/#/c/589085/
09:43:59 alex_xu bauzas: I guess it should works with your patch also, and you get the vgpu claim for dst host
09:44:23 bauzas alex_xu: that's why I need to look at your series to exactly understand how it works
09:46:06 bauzas alex_xu: also, a nit, I wonder if we should have a specless bp for this
09:46:35 alex_xu bauzas: yea, probably we can ask efried about that
10:28:33 openstackgerrit Stephen Finucane proposed openstack/nova master: bindep: Remove dead markers https://review.opendev.org/671452
10:30:25 stephenfin bauzas, alex_xu: Easiest +2 you'll ever have right here https://review.opendev.org/671452
10:30:44 bauzas stephenfin: hands on deck
11:06:16 kashyap bauzas: Isn't it simple enough to just go ahead and +W it?
11:06:44 kashyap (It being the 'bindep' one)
11:06:48 bauzas no
11:07:08 bauzas fast-approval seems right, but honestly people could have concerns
11:08:11 kashyap If there _can_ be concerns, okay, fair enough.
11:08:20 sean-k-mooney kashyap: even if it was stephenfin wrote it so we shoul dnot have a redhat core +2+w without someone else looking at it
11:08:58 kashyap Well, not that asinine reason again. There are sensible exceptions
11:09:10 sean-k-mooney kashyap: yep this is not one of them
11:09:22 kashyap On that point, see my extended point here: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2019-May/006080.html
11:09:28 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Okay.
11:09:49 kashyap I don't care about this change particularly, BTW. Just the simplicity of it is what prompted me to say it.
11:18:29 cdent kashyap++ and *hugs*
11:18:47 kashyap :-)
11:22:05 kashyap sean-k-mooney: For argument's sake, why is this not one of them? Precise is even EOL
11:22:34 kashyap This is definitely one of those dead-simple changes that doesn't require an completely unhinged process to interfere
11:22:43 kashyap Anyway, not my circus, not my clowns.
11:23:31 kashyap s/"an completely"/"a completely"/
11:27:55 sean-k-mooney ignoring the same company aspect. one out of curtusy to other disto maintainer we shoudl not fast merge thing related to our competitor distro without any external reveiew, second we only use singel +2 in very limited cases like when you would have been the second +2 but you fix a minor nit in someone esle pathc or rebased a patch that went int merge confcit and you are proxing a previous +2 from a
11:27:57 sean-k-mooney core, third its not urgent, i.e. there is no bug associated wthi this stepen jsut noticed it and its not blocking the gate. put that to gether with the same company core thing and even though its trivial and it looks correct i dont think this has a stong case for bypassing our standard policy
11:29:35 kashyap Sure, it is not about "urgency", but needless, grinding processes coming in the way. Also on courtesy, who says it is being incourteous? Assume good intent.
11:30:00 kashyap gibi: :-) I was just "thinking (or arguing) out loud".
11:31:02 sean-k-mooney i am assuming good intent but i would assume you would like to see change to fedora requirement before they merged if i was droping support for a fedora version
11:31:18 kashyap For an EOL release? I don't give a damn
11:31:48 sean-k-mooney anyway thanks gibi :)
11:32:18 gibi we an always revert such patches :)
11:32:23 gibi we can
11:32:26 kashyap Yes, exactly.
11:32:34 kashyap The "revert" hammer is always near by :D
11:32:49 sean-k-mooney keep it away from artom for a while
11:32:55 kashyap Haha
11:38:36 openstackgerrit Surya Seetharaman proposed openstack/nova master: API microversion 2.75: Add 'power-update' external event https://review.opendev.org/645611
11:39:29 artom What am I reverting?
11:40:05 sean-k-mooney hehe nothing i was just saying lets not hit you with the revert hammer for a while.
11:40:20 sean-k-mooney i think you have had enough heartache form it in the last week or two
11:40:38 artom Ugh
11:41:05 kashyap He was teasing you :D
11:41:32 sean-k-mooney more his bad luck
11:41:55 artom I know, the "ugh" was about the reverts, not the tease
11:48:46 kashyap Nod, figured as much.
12:26:02 openstackgerrit Artom Lifshitz proposed openstack/nova master: migrations: libvirt: remove get_machine_ips() https://review.opendev.org/671471
12:26:06 artom sean-k-mooney, ^^
12:26:23 artom stephenfin, ^^ you might like the code removal aspect too :)
12:26:29 artom Not sure if I need a bug for that...
12:27:31 sean-k-mooney ya we proably should have a bug and mention the downstream one
12:27:53 sean-k-mooney :) +0,-55
12:31:34 sean-k-mooney artom: actully we want to backport it so it need a bug
12:34:06 stephenfin artom: Makes sense. Do you want to backport it?
12:34:29 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: we need this on newton downstream
12:34:34 sean-k-mooney so yes
12:34:35 stephenfin I assume so, given your comment in the bug. If so, what sean-k-mooney said
12:34:36 stephenfin ack
12:34:36 artom stephenfin, it's for an internal escalation, so yeah
12:35:01 artom Busy with household'y stuff, will file bug
12:35:05 artom In a few
12:35:12 stephenfin That's going to be an ugly backport. You've been warned
12:35:29 artom I... I can't tell if you're being serious
12:35:34 stephenfin (look at the "Conflicts With" for an idea of the amount of _unmerged_ patches this touches)
12:35:45 stephenfin Oh, I'm always very serious
12:35:46 sean-k-mooney really? why
12:35:53 stephenfin Serious Steve, I've been called
12:36:03 sean-k-mooney i think that is likely jsut change to the module import in most cases
12:36:08 artom I would think most of those are just whitespace-type things
12:36:28 artom Ie, the excision itself is clean, but git is having trouble because what's around it changed
12:36:32 stephenfin Quite possibly. I didn't check. It doesn't matter much either. If it's got to be done, it's got to be done.
12:36:56 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: also if artom going to be the one doing it ... :)
12:37:10 artom Sheesh guys, team spirit and all that
12:37:34 sean-k-mooney we will review it for you down stream too :P
