13:31:58 bauzas but you could technically stick with diff (with -y, side-to-side) and just grep a few things
13:31:59 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: They won't accept it
13:32:00 sean-k-mooney i rarely use it but when i do it works well
13:32:02 stephenfin They being infra
13:32:10 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: why not
13:32:26 stephenfin Something about git-review being a dead simple tool that shouldn't grow any additional functionality
13:32:32 stephenfin which I kind of get
13:32:36 bauzas meld works too, I mean litterally any decent editor that supports merge diffs
13:32:39 sean-k-mooney it already has -m
13:32:46 stephenfin it probably shouldn't have that
13:32:48 bauzas -m has a very different behaviour
13:33:02 sean-k-mooney if you dont do the rebase in -m its the same
13:33:17 bauzas the 'if' makes the difference
13:33:32 sean-k-mooney as you said -m rebase both to master to elimitate the need to diff diffs
13:33:50 sean-k-mooney but both are trying to do the same thing
13:34:04 sean-k-mooney elimiate chagne that are not part of your actual patch
13:34:04 bauzas correct but then you have to handle merge conflicts if they occur
13:34:18 bauzas that's unnecessary work on my opinion
13:34:28 sean-k-mooney yes whcih is why i dont like how -m works
13:34:31 sean-k-mooney yep
13:35:16 bauzas anyway
13:35:25 bauzas just saying
13:36:02 bauzas this is a problem I've seen from 6 years ago, I bet someone would have come up with some stuff in git review if infra was happy with
13:36:12 mriedem gibi: ok comments in https://review.opendev.org/#/c/666857/
13:36:45 gibi mriedem: looking
13:37:06 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: does glance have documentation for flavor extra specs?
13:37:09 bauzas snap, mriedem beated me
13:37:24 mriedem stephenfin: flavors != glance
13:37:31 mriedem you mean image properties?
13:37:40 mriedem https://docs.openstack.org/glance/latest/admin/useful-image-properties.html
13:37:50 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: it has metadefs for them
13:38:08 stephenfin mriedem: Nope, flavor extra specs. I know it's not their domain but sean-k-mooney had mentioned some about flavor definitions in glance before
13:38:09 mriedem it has metadefs for image properties
13:38:11 sean-k-mooney and it has the image properties that mriedem linked
13:38:11 mriedem not flavor extra specs
13:38:21 sean-k-mooney yes they do
13:38:53 sean-k-mooney the metadefs cover flavors image and host agrrates metatdata
13:39:17 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/glance/blob/master/etc/metadefs/compute-libvirt.json#L9-L14
13:39:53 sean-k-mooney its where all the documenation in glance and heat comes form for those values
13:40:14 sean-k-mooney *horizon and heat
13:40:22 mriedem huh
13:40:40 mriedem i found https://github.com/openstack/glance/blob/master/etc/metadefs/compute-trust.json which we removed that filter from nova years ago...so it's good to know the information about this stuff is in glance and is stale
13:41:07 sean-k-mooney horizon and heat both autogenerat there ui from the glance metadef api
13:41:30 sean-k-mooney yes i have been slowly trying to update it every now and then
13:41:45 sean-k-mooney i would like to bring it fully up to date envtually
13:41:50 stephenfin IMO those definitions should live in nova and be thrown across the wall on a regular cadence to glance
13:42:11 sean-k-mooney they should live in a seperate project that is not part of either
13:42:16 sean-k-mooney but use by all services
13:42:52 stephenfin or we could just expose it via an API that glance could consume?
13:42:58 sean-k-mooney glance currentlly is our metadata defintion store/repositroy
13:43:10 sean-k-mooney glance already exposes this via an api
13:43:13 sean-k-mooney that others consume
13:43:22 sean-k-mooney we coudl move to all service exposing the same api
13:43:36 openstackgerrit Eric Fried proposed openstack/nova master: DNM: Try to repro bug 1823251 with mysql logs https://review.opendev.org/678051
13:43:37 openstack bug 1823251 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "Spike in TestNovaMigrationsMySQL.test_walk_versions/test_innodb_tables failures since April 1 2019 on limestone-regionone" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1823251
13:43:57 sean-k-mooney e.g. have a /metadefs on each service but really this shoudl be its own serivice or stay in glance
13:45:08 sean-k-mooney haveing all serivice provide an identical api would only really work if we had a lib with the api defintion and each service just kept the data in the repo
13:48:02 stephenfin idk, clearly having our definitions live in another service is an issue
13:48:33 sean-k-mooney well we define image properties that belong to glance in our ovos
13:48:37 stephenfin and I'm not sure using an external library is an option since that means only official extra specs can be used
13:48:50 sean-k-mooney if you take that route we shoudl not be doing that either
13:49:09 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: no it doesnt
13:49:30 sean-k-mooney the metadefs can be exetended by operators or distors
13:49:47 sean-k-mooney you simply add entires to the files
13:49:56 sean-k-mooney or new files
13:50:33 stephenfin actually, we already figured this out
13:50:36 sean-k-mooney so we can take the same data driven approch or we can define a custom_ prefix or seveler other thigns
13:50:48 stephenfin stevedore
13:50:52 sean-k-mooney in the spec we figured out how to use stevedore
13:50:54 sean-k-mooney ya
13:51:03 stephenfin yeah, glance can just hook into that like we do
13:51:05 stephenfin easy as
13:51:17 sean-k-mooney not really
13:51:42 sean-k-mooney this is an api that has existed for 6+ years
13:51:54 sean-k-mooney and other pojects depend on it
13:52:01 stephenfin they can keep the API
13:52:18 sean-k-mooney yes but unless we can expose our flavor form it
13:53:03 sean-k-mooney *flavor extra specs via the new mechanisum at the metadefs endpoin im not sure going our own way is good
13:53:25 stephenfin It should be easy do
13:53:43 sean-k-mooney stevador only works if everythign is installed in teh same place
13:53:51 sean-k-mooney in contienr it wont work
13:54:11 stephenfin If they can pull our definitions in, they just need to transform them so they match whatever we had before
13:54:28 stephenfin then we provide a tool to dump in their JSON metadef style
13:54:35 stephenfin and push a patch to Glance
13:54:41 sean-k-mooney ya bout you would have have to install nova in the glance contienr
13:54:49 sean-k-mooney thats not good
13:55:01 stephenfin better than what we have at the momenty
13:55:06 sean-k-mooney havign a nova tool to generate teh metadefs and copy it could work
13:55:16 stephenfin oh, I thought you meant the tool
13:55:45 sean-k-mooney no i ment stevadore
13:56:05 sean-k-mooney stevador was a suggestion for other project to add validtors
13:56:11 sean-k-mooney to nova
13:56:20 stephenfin Yup, gotcha. My bad
13:56:20 sean-k-mooney not to share data to other projects
13:56:25 mriedem belmoreira: this might have an impact to compute start times when using the ironic driver https://review.opendev.org/#/c/666857/
13:56:43 mriedem belmoreira: so if you have suggestions about what definitely not to do there it would be appreciated
13:56:54 sean-k-mooney it wouldnt be nova-mange but a nova-metadefs tool or something could be used to do an export i guess
13:57:16 mriedem belmoreira: specifically https://review.opendev.org/#/c/666857/9/nova/compute/manager.py@1329
14:01:32 belmoreira mriedem thanks for ping me
14:02:38 openstackgerrit Eric Fried proposed openstack/nova master: Only allow one scheduler service in tests https://review.opendev.org/682486
