#openstack-nova - 2019-08-07
15:59:16 mriedem i love being continually distracted about asking to review specs and plans and code for things that do not even have a chance for train
15:59:34 mkrai sean-k-mooney, I have already posted spec for the ironic reconfigure API that will be needed by the resize API
15:59:36 sean-k-mooney gibi: are you ok with https://review.opendev.org/#/c/674072 adressing bug: #179520 as a bugfix to the original spec
15:59:36 openstack bug 179468 in python-cups (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #179520 applet.py crashed with TypeError in on_job_hold_activate()" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/179468 - Assigned to Pascal De Vuyst (pascal-devuyst)
15:59:36 mriedem meanwhile my mega cross-cell resize series is not getting review but has been up for 2 cycles
16:00:17 mkrai sean-k-mooney, https://review.opendev.org/#/c/672252/
16:00:29 mkrai I will add this link to the etherpad
16:00:54 efried mriedem: I'm going out on a limb and saying distraction is not the most significant factor in lack of reviews on cross-cell resize.
16:00:58 efried At least for me that's true
16:01:03 gibi sean-k-mooney: yeah I'm OK with that being a bugfix. Maybe a link to the original spec / bp in the commit message would help
16:01:07 sean-k-mooney mriedem: ^ that question is also to use as well are you ok with https://review.opendev.org/#/c/674072 adressing the feature gap in the orginal spec.
16:01:10 efried "I'm askeird" is the major reason
16:01:28 mriedem efried: i'm not saying it's a walk in the park
16:01:38 sean-k-mooney gibi: sure ill add one
16:01:46 efried fwiw, I have been intending to wade in
16:01:52 mriedem that's why i had integration testing of cross-cell resize working before putting out a review guide
16:01:55 efried but procrastinating successfully so far
16:02:13 mriedem which is more than i can say for a lot of the features we merge...
16:02:19 efried yeah yeah
16:02:33 mriedem i'm also a bit disappointed that cern hasn't been more involved
16:02:40 mriedem but they seem...distracted lately as well
16:03:09 mriedem sean-k-mooney: idk even know what https://review.opendev.org/#/c/674072 is about
16:03:18 mriedem but it looks like it's not fun
16:04:04 sean-k-mooney we only allow you to specify the numa affinity policy for pci device in teh pci alias. the spec origially had flavor and image properites for it
16:04:22 sean-k-mooney neutron sriov dose not use pci alias
16:04:24 mriedem which original spec
16:04:25 mriedem ?
16:04:42 sean-k-mooney so we entirely broke the original neuton port usecase.
16:04:47 sean-k-mooney one sec ill get it
16:05:14 mriedem "lack of a feature is not a bug"
16:05:19 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/nova-specs/blob/master/specs/queens/implemented/share-pci-between-numa-nodes.rst
16:05:27 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/nova-specs/commit/74b47ac2f968b13b7d15987063d0f52ecba02a7e#diff-b5d95cd01ee920f26b55b45f2777b7aa is wher whe chaned it
16:06:06 mriedem ok i'm pretty sure i didn't review any of this https://review.opendev.org/#/q/topic:bp/share-pci-between-numa-nodes+(status:open+OR+status:merged)
16:06:13 mriedem looks like it was jay, sylvain and gibi
16:06:56 mriedem i do, however, always enjoy the late "oh btw this thing we landed 3 releases ago didn't do what it was supposed to but our QE team just got around to testing it"
16:06:57 sean-k-mooney mriedem: that is true which is why i want non redhat core to basicaly decide if this is valid to adress as a bugfix as redhat folk have a conflict of interest
16:07:25 sean-k-mooney well we knew it was broken for a while but planned to fix it in U
16:07:50 sean-k-mooney we have a custom request to support this that came in last week e.g. after spec freeze
16:08:10 mriedem so you want to slide it in as a bug fix?
16:08:11 sean-k-mooney so this is why im asking is this something we can address upstream in Train
16:08:43 mriedem you know i'm not going to let you backport this right?
16:09:09 sean-k-mooney well we do actully have a bug for it but i also added the wrong one
16:09:14 sean-k-mooney mriedem: and yes i know
16:09:40 mriedem this smells like a blueprint to me, not a bug
16:10:15 sean-k-mooney given we are pass m2 is this something that people would be willing to consider of train as a blueprint
16:10:41 sean-k-mooney i am happy to file one and ask for a blueprint exception
16:11:01 mriedem christ
16:11:28 mriedem tell you what, if you can lean on dansmith and he can lean on me then we can talk
16:11:33 mriedem but i just -1ed this as needing a blueprint
16:11:35 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova stable/stein: Replace non-nova server fault message https://review.opendev.org/674828
16:11:38 sean-k-mooney mriedem: i am also ok with punting it but that just forces me to consider downstrema only way to adres this.
16:11:42 dansmith wut
16:11:42 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova stable/stein: Revert "[libvirt] Filter hypervisor_type by virt_type" https://review.opendev.org/672723
16:12:04 mriedem dansmith: "we forgot to do a thing in queens" https://review.opendev.org/#/c/674072/
16:13:11 dansmith mriedem: if a config flag to disable certain processor flags for the biggest SEV in decades is a feature, then ffs, this surely is
16:13:30 sean-k-mooney this is the orignal bug report by the way https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1795920
16:13:31 openstack Launchpad bug 1795920 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "SR-IOV shared PCI numa not working " [Undecided,Confirmed]
16:13:56 melwitt since everybody's in a good mood this morning, think it's a good time to ask for reviews on multi-cell archive_deleted_rows https://review.opendev.org/507486
16:20:26 mriedem RAGE
16:20:55 stephenfin Terrible game, that
16:21:01 mriedem oh right you wanted to backport that too... :)
16:23:59 huaqiang dansmith: about the evenly distributing PCPUs/VCPUs in instance, I have replied in v7
16:24:11 dansmith huaqiang: yeah, I know, and so have others
16:24:26 huaqiang I need your comment
16:24:39 dansmith huaqiang: I don't like that we're just letting the user define the orientation of every last electron instead of being abstract
16:24:43 dansmith but that's just my opinion
16:24:55 dansmith it's clear that others feel it's very important to be able to arrange all the electrons
16:26:00 sean-k-mooney dansmith: i dont know if you saw my conversation with alex_xu this morning
16:26:13 huaqiang I just think if the cpu maks is provided, administrator can have more choice
16:26:13 dansmith I *saw* it, but didn't pay close attention
16:26:15 sean-k-mooney you are right that we prviosuly discussed an alternitive
16:26:20 melwitt lol arranging electrons? *slowly backs away*
16:26:34 dansmith huaqiang: yeah I know.. everyone wants full control of everything
16:26:37 sean-k-mooney e.g. a tally count of how many pcpu and vcpu
16:27:05 sean-k-mooney and then a conention that per numa node we place the numa local vcpu first followed by the numa local pcus
16:27:13 dansmith sean-k-mooney: seems like arranging the dedicated cpus first and the non-dedicates ones after would still give you all the control you need, since you can already control numa nodes, memory assignment, etc
16:27:25 sean-k-mooney this make the core 0 is for the os eveythring else if for the app case just work
16:27:29 dansmith but I know I should just forget about this ever trying to be anything other than manual bitmasks for everything
16:27:49 sean-k-mooney dansmith: you want the non dedicate ones first
16:28:02 sean-k-mooney there are some things in the kernel you cant move off core 0
16:28:07 sean-k-mooney at least not eaisly
16:28:08 melwitt mriedem: I think I asked about backporting --before, not this :) but yeah, both are things that would help with operability for queens *emoji with eyelashes*
16:28:10 dansmith whatever
16:28:37 sean-k-mooney dansmith: well it is a valid alternitve im not totally against
16:28:57 sean-k-mooney but if we were to go that route i think we would need time to think about it and spec out
16:29:05 sean-k-mooney meaning this defintly would be moved to U
16:29:34 sean-k-mooney the mask is consitent with realtiem cpus btu i get the concern over complexity
16:31:08 openstackgerrit Matt Riedemann proposed openstack/nova master: Add useful error log when _determine_version_cap raises DBNotAllowed https://review.opendev.org/675148
16:31:11 mriedem mnaser: noonedeadpunk: ^ did an OSA nova bug get filed?
16:31:15 mriedem if so i can tack it on there
16:32:20 huaqiang dansmith: got. thanks
16:32:36 mriedem melwitt: oh right yeah
16:32:56 mriedem is queens the major RHOSP release all of the customers are on now because that seems to be where all of the recent customer stuff is coming from
16:33:05 sean-k-mooney mriedem: yes
16:33:06 mriedem non-LTS RHOSP i should say
16:33:08 melwitt that is correct, heh
16:33:56 sean-k-mooney queens is osp 13. osp 10(netwon) is EOL in december so everyone is moving to 13.
16:34:02 melwitt we're maybe probably gonna backport both of these I think. because RDO cloud and/or our CI runs on queens and not having these tools has been pain for those running the clusters
16:34:22 melwitt *backport downstream, at least
16:35:48 mnaser mriedem: i think noonedeadpunk did not do one so perhaps OSA instead can tack on
