14:26:56 bauzas sean-k-mooney: hold my beer
14:29:12 bauzas sean-k-mooney: I personnally like to consider being able to join a free ISP with a specific AS if my ISP sucks
14:29:26 bauzas which won't be possible if I go with starlink
14:29:44 bauzas that, and the fact I don't like how this will pollute space
14:30:21 sean-k-mooney also you dont want to have to wait till 2021 or later when it actully start going live
14:30:58 bauzas honestly, I could just pay a local mobile provider and run a LTE connection with 100 gigs fair use
14:31:50 bauzas sean-k-mooney: well, about 2021, I become almost sure that starlink would be operational before I get optic fiber at home
14:34:47 sean-k-mooney ya if im at my mother house i get 150 down and about 80 up on my phone while her landline broadband only get 4 down and .25-.6 up on a good day
14:35:23 sean-k-mooney i have suggested just bying a pone pluging it in and paying the 30 euro a month for unlimited broadband with thearhing allowed
14:35:34 sean-k-mooney it would be a 1TB fair usge limit
14:37:38 lyarwood https://paste.centos.org/view/39276981 <- can anyone think why I could be getting this error in a func test on stable/train using integrated_helpers._IntegratedTestBase and starting two compute services ?
14:37:45 lyarwood ComputeHostNotFound: Compute host 2 could not be found.
14:37:52 lyarwood everything seems to start correctly
14:38:48 lyarwood for context I'm backporting https://review.opendev.org/#/q/Ib9dbc792dc918e7ea45915e2c1dbd96be82ef562
14:41:34 aarents stephenfin: not sure to get this one: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/747957/4/nova/tests/unit/compute/test_compute.py@10296 (I replied)
14:50:21 stephenfin aarents: Fair point. Ignore that comment :)
14:50:27 stephenfin (replied also)
14:56:38 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Make PCI claim NUMA aware during live migration https://review.opendev.org/748453
14:57:04 aarents stephenfin: oky thks, I will fixup the others
14:57:54 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: [WIP] Support SRIOV interface attach and detach https://review.opendev.org/740995
14:59:09 openstackgerrit Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: DNM: tracing the PCI allocation code path https://review.opendev.org/748454
15:01:02 gibi sean-k-mooney: added some logs ^^ to see why the pci device goes to allocated immediately in your env
15:01:17 gibi I mean why it doesn't go to allocated
15:12:19 sean-k-mooney gibi: so i still dont think we should make sriov use claims for what its worth
15:12:45 sean-k-mooney im hoping eventully claims wil go away and we will use migrate data like we do with sriov migration
15:13:08 sean-k-mooney oh sorry this is something esle
15:13:24 sean-k-mooney ya ok i see what you have changed
15:13:54 sean-k-mooney gibi: i was getting confused with the TODO to converge numa migration and sriov migration to claim devices in a common way
15:14:20 sean-k-mooney https://review.opendev.org/#/c/748453/1/nova/compute/resource_tracker.py is adress the comment i left about not passign the numa toplogy
15:24:02 sean-k-mooney artom: this is better then we do today where we dont pass the numa toplogy but its still wrogn correct^
15:24:17 sean-k-mooney https://review.opendev.org/#/c/748453/1
15:25:26 gibi sean-k-mooney: do you mean we pass the wrong topology during live migration?
15:25:41 sean-k-mooney it depend on where that is being called
15:25:56 artom gibi, I think sean-k-mooney means adding PCI devices to the _live_migration_claim()...
15:26:08 sean-k-mooney artom: well i want to delete that
15:26:24 artom sean-k-mooney, delete... the _live_migration_claim()?
15:26:25 sean-k-mooney but currently its done in check_can_live_migrate_destination
15:26:35 sean-k-mooney artom: i want to remove claims eventually
15:26:43 artom In favor of what?
15:26:53 artom They're like the basis of all of NUMA live migraiton
15:27:01 sean-k-mooney yep i know
15:27:09 artom And I mean... they work.
15:27:19 sean-k-mooney in favor of doing it the way we do for sriov live migration
15:27:29 artom ... why?
15:27:30 sean-k-mooney anyway different topic for a different day
15:27:36 gibi :)
15:27:46 sean-k-mooney port_id_to_pci = self._claim_pci_for_instance_vifs(ctxt, instance)
15:27:58 artom Like yeah, they're hard to grok initially, but they do a bunch of useful things
15:28:01 sean-k-mooney we do that in check_can_live_migrate_destination
15:28:04 artom And they're battle-tested
15:29:13 sean-k-mooney im not sure which numa toplogy is stored in the instance at that point
15:29:14 artom I mean not really for another day, because gibi's patch has to chose 1 or the other...
15:29:19 sean-k-mooney is it the souce numa toplogy or the dest
15:29:33 artom sean-k-mooney, the source, until we apply_move_claim()
15:29:50 sean-k-mooney ok so then that is the wrong numa toplogy for 2 reasons
15:29:57 sean-k-mooney first the souce and dest can differ
15:30:04 gibi I have access to the MoveClaim but that also seems to returning the numa topology stored on the instnace
15:30:12 sean-k-mooney and second if the dest numa toplogy has not been caulated with the numa reuqirement it also wrong
15:30:43 sean-k-mooney we shoudl be geting the toplogy info form the migate_data object right
15:30:59 gibi sean-k-mooney: I did not found it there
15:31:00 artom sean-k-mooney, the whole point of using claims was to calculate the dest numa topology, and store the old and new until we apply the claim...
15:31:32 sean-k-mooney artom: right but sriov migration merged a few months before any for the numa migration stuff did
15:31:34 gibi artom let me know where is the dest numa topology stored and I will modify my patch
15:31:47 sean-k-mooney and it was expictly not using move claims
15:32:09 artom sean-k-mooney, I know, we discussed that during review
15:32:43 sean-k-mooney yes i wanted to move to a case where we claimd resouce in the db and passed the info via migrate data and start using that of all move operations
15:32:59 artom That's what claims do :)
15:33:04 sean-k-mooney badly
15:33:12 artom Why?
15:33:28 sean-k-mooney for one they dont actully store them in the db
15:33:49 sean-k-mooney the are in memroy we are not claiming indivutal resouce on the numa toplogy blob for example
15:33:52 artom Store what? The resource usage? Yes they do, the update the resource tracker, and the migration is consuming the resources
15:33:54 sean-k-mooney the host one
15:34:25 sean-k-mooney claims basically are boolean this is free or it might be used
15:34:35 sean-k-mooney with pci devces we have a tristate
15:34:37 artom Yeah, the eventually call down to rt._update() or w/e it's called
15:35:07 sean-k-mooney available, claimed for an instnace but not used yet and allocated
15:35:17 sean-k-mooney that is stored in teh db drictly in a table not in memory
15:35:40 artom sean-k-mooney, so can the resource tracker already call down to the pci tracker to udpate those?
15:35:41 sean-k-mooney which means if we restart the compute agent that info is not actully lost
15:35:52 sean-k-mooney yes
15:36:33 artom sean-k-mooney, so what's wrong with using that exisiting plumbing?
15:36:45 sean-k-mooney but thats kind of missign the point that i dont really think how we do claimis is a good thing. i know othere wanted to move to a model weher we rely more on plament allocation and directl claims or resouce that are not tempory in memory
15:36:57 artom sean-k-mooney, Placement, sure
15:37:11 artom But let's be honest, NUMA in placement is never happening :P
15:37:24 sean-k-mooney we basically have two source of info here the live migration claim and the migrate_data
15:37:40 artom sean-k-mooney, the migrate data is just the info for the source to update the XML
15:37:43 sean-k-mooney well actully we might eventually have to make that deciesion
15:37:51 artom The claim is for resources consumed
15:38:05 sean-k-mooney there are feature that have been waitn 4+year for numa in placment
15:38:23 sean-k-mooney im not really sure we can justify blocking them to much longer but ill try to get it done next cycle
15:38:38 sean-k-mooney after wallaby however we really need to consier if we will ever do int plamcent
15:39:03 sean-k-mooney we did not need placment ot solve the races we have with numa
15:39:14 sean-k-mooney we just need to not use claims the way they are right now
15:39:25 sean-k-mooney that is one of my main issue with them
15:39:42 sean-k-mooney because the calims are done locally on the compute node it cause the numa races
15:39:46 artom sean-k-mooney, plus, we *already have* PCI stuff in the rt's _move_claim()
15:40:03 sean-k-mooney for what
15:40:13 artom Moves :) Cold migrations
15:40:13 sean-k-mooney oh you put in a hack i remmeber
