#openstack-nova - 2020-09-18
12:08:02 ygk_12345 sean-k-mooney so what logs to check in particulaer ?
12:08:49 sean-k-mooney well first you need to look at the instance action logs for the affected instance and determin that no api action was performend on the guest
12:08:52 ygk_12345 sean-k-mooney its happening only with a particular image
12:09:18 sean-k-mooney the image cant affect this unless you are using the watchdog and the vm hung and was rebooted
12:09:26 ygk_12345 where can I find those logs ?
12:10:09 sean-k-mooney openstack server event list <uuid>
12:11:15 ygk_12345 no actions except two reboots which I did
12:11:28 ygk_12345 create,reboot,reboot
12:11:58 sean-k-mooney ok if there are no action at the time of the events you next need to look at the neutron agent logs
12:12:17 sean-k-mooney basically you need to check why the agent updated the port status
12:12:20 ygk_12345 which agent in particular ?
12:12:32 ygk_12345 dhcp ?
12:12:43 sean-k-mooney if it was devstack it would be devstack@q-agt but its the neutron ovs l2 agent
12:12:55 ygk_12345 ok
12:13:31 sean-k-mooney if nova is not perfroming any instance actions then the port vif:host-id should not be updating
12:14:05 ygk_12345 how can I track the port status of an instance in the ovs logs ?
12:14:14 sean-k-mooney so the only thing that would cause those event to be emitted is a change in state form the ovs agent
12:14:52 sean-k-mooney you need to have the neutron port uuid if the agent is in debug mode it will print the uuid of the port it is processign at differnt times
12:15:02 ygk_12345 ok let me check
12:15:14 sean-k-mooney what you are looking for is if the port is listed in teh added or deleted list of ports around teh time of the events
12:15:33 sean-k-mooney that would indicate the port being removed or added to the ovs bridge
12:15:50 sean-k-mooney simialrly if the admin state on the newon port was changed it would also show up there
12:16:38 sean-k-mooney ygk_12345: the other thing that you cold check before going into the agent logs is the qemu instance log
12:16:48 ygk_12345 oh ok
12:16:50 sean-k-mooney and confirm that there are no restarts
12:17:31 sean-k-mooney ygk_12345: do you enabel the watchdog or qemu guest agent in teh image that is affected
12:18:00 ygk_12345 no idea
12:18:15 sean-k-mooney they would be listed in the image metadata in glance
12:20:00 sean-k-mooney ygk_12345: those event typically mean 1 of two things. eighet the tap device was removed and added to ovs, or the port was updated (host-id or admin status)
12:20:10 ygk_12345 i dont think they are set for that image
12:20:17 sean-k-mooney ok
12:20:31 sean-k-mooney this sound like its not a nova issue for what its worth
12:21:41 sean-k-mooney but check the qemu log to confim there is not reboot of the instace when it happened. if so then you need to look at the l2 agent logs if that does not show anyting then you need to check the dhcp agent and neutron server logs for the port uuid
12:21:50 sean-k-mooney to track down why the event was sent
12:26:33 ygk_12345 ok
12:28:19 ygk_12345 sean-k-mooney even when the vnics have disappeared, those ports are being shown as active in nova
12:28:28 ygk_12345 how can this be ?
12:31:10 sean-k-mooney without logs i cant really help you resolve this. can you file a bug and attach some logs specificly the nova compute and l2 agent logs for aroudn the time when this happened
12:31:49 ygk_12345 ok
12:32:02 sean-k-mooney what your describing does not really match to any known broken behviaor that comes to mind
12:32:43 sean-k-mooney the only way to revmoe an interface form a vm that is runnign other then a nova interface detach which is not present in the event logs
12:32:50 sean-k-mooney is to delete the neutron port
12:33:05 sean-k-mooney that will send a network-vif-deleted event to nova
12:33:19 sean-k-mooney but presuably you did not delete the nuetorn port
12:33:32 sean-k-mooney so im not aware of any code path that could result in this
12:33:52 ygk_12345 strange
12:34:03 sean-k-mooney the info cache currption issue requires a hard reboot for the instance to be lost or a move operations
12:44:59 ygk_12345 sean-k-mooney when the ping is unreachable for the vm , I dont see any messages for that port in the neutron-server except when I do a manual reboot

12:49:13 gibi :)
12:51:35 lyarwood yup sorry all
12:53:56 lyarwood back this evening to clean up any fallout caused by all of this
12:56:33 gibi ack
12:58:54 ygk_12345 sean-k-mooney i have posted this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1896226
12:58:54 openstack Launchpad bug 1896226 in OpenStack Compute (nova) "The vnics are disappearing in the vm" [Undecided,New]
13:02:59 kashyap lyarwood: Hey, so do you know how many CPU cores did that reproducer host had?
13:03:26 kashyap lyarwood: I'm asking because, depending on that I may need to fork my CPU workload to spread across multiple (CPU) cores
13:05:10 kashyap Meanwhile ... lovely: I just created a fresh F32 VM on Ubuntu Focal, and the bootloader is filling up little yellow squares on my screen.
13:10:15 gibi kashyap: I think it is 8 https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/4c56def513884c5eb3ba7b0adf7fa260/log/zuul-info/host-info.controller.yaml#440
13:11:01 gibi kashyap: at least this is the CI job run linked to the bug report
13:17:50 kashyap gibi: So that's the "host VM" where Tempest is running, yeaH?
13:17:50 bauzas gibi: thanks
13:18:00 kashyap gibi: I'm trying to recreate the _exact_ damn setup :D
13:18:03 bauzas (for the TC ping)
13:18:46 gibi kashyap: yes I think that is the "host" where tempest runs
13:18:58 sean-k-mooney kashyap: it has 8 i think
13:19:09 kashyap gibi: Okay, 8 vCPUs, and 7599 MB of memory
13:19:22 kashyap gibi: And do you see what's the disk size?
13:19:30 sean-k-mooney yep ist my small flavor
13:20:12 kashyap sean-k-mooney: The disk size is ~16GB?
13:20:13 gibi size: 80.00 GB
13:20:21 kashyap gibi: Oh, right
13:20:28 gibi https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/4c56def513884c5eb3ba7b0adf7fa260/log/zuul-info/host-info.controller.yaml#259-293
13:20:39 kashyap Okay; I need to tweak the setup so that I'm also doing QEMU-on-KVM nested and not KVM-on-KVM nested
13:20:42 kashyap Thanks; /me back in a few
13:20:55 gibi thanks kashyap
13:22:20 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: releasenote: Add known issue for bug #1894804 https://review.opendev.org/752654
13:22:20 openstack bug 1894804 in qemu (Ubuntu) "Second DEVICE_DELETED event missing during virtio-blk disk device detach" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1894804
13:33:44 sean-k-mooney kashyap: you dont need 80G of disk by the way 25-40G is typeically more then enough
13:38:55 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Yeah, I have something like that anyway
13:40:21 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Do we have the full guest command-line of the Focal VM "host" upstream is using?
13:40:23 sean-k-mooney if you want an account on my home cloud by the way let me know and i can create one for you
13:40:46 sean-k-mooney no bug its just an openstack vm
13:41:27 sean-k-mooney with 8G of ram and 8 cpus and 80G fo disk
13:41:42 sean-k-mooney im not sure that really matters too much
13:42:02 kashyap sean-k-mooney: Okay; so what you gave me suffices
13:42:26 kashyap sean-k-mooney: For now, stable access (and it _is_ stable) to this VM is sufficient :) Thx!
13:42:29 sean-k-mooney ya my small flaovr is basicaly a proxy for the ci vms
13:43:19 sean-k-mooney except i add hw:cpu_sockets=2 hw:cpu_threads=2 hw:numa_nodes=2 and hw:mem_page_size=large
13:43:52 sean-k-mooney that should not change the behvior in this case but just an fyi
13:44:49 kashyap sean-k-mooney: One more: what's the CirrOS version being run here?
13:45:03 kashyap "here" as in, in the Tempest env
