#openstack-nova - 2020-10-28
08:31:41 lyarwood melwitt++ thanks for the ER query and other bug you raised, looks like we have hit *more* issues overnight
08:33:50 bauzas lyarwood: /o\
08:35:23 bauzas lyarwood: mmmm, the gate looks all good for me
08:36:47 lyarwood https://review.opendev.org/#/c/759831/ check the failures here, a random collection of unrelated failures
08:37:03 lyarwood the gate isn't jammed, jobs are just failing
08:50:44 bauzas lyarwood: I see
08:50:57 bauzas we're just lucky then
08:57:25 kashyap lyarwood: Mornin; will check
09:01:15 lyarwood kashyap: ack, is that streaming somewhere?
09:01:43 kashyap lyarwood: It is per-email-based login; costs $25
09:01:52 kashyap lyarwood: Yeah, your recollection is right
09:02:04 kashyap BTW, don't worry; the full talks will be available on YouTube soon
09:02:16 lyarwood kk no issues, I'll watch it once it's posted there
09:02:20 kashyap (Even the panel discussion was preprecorded)
09:04:45 kashyap lyarwood: So the test that's failing is live migration _without_ shared storage?
09:06:17 frickler gibi: lyarwood: since https://review.opendev.org/759831 failed once more on unrelated issues, how about force-merging it in order to unblock things? I think we can be pretty sure that the patch itself is working fine by now
09:06:51 lyarwood kashyap: https://opendev.org/openstack/tempest/src/branch/master/tempest/api/compute/admin/test_live_migration.py#L151
09:07:12 lyarwood frickler: I'd be happy with that if it unblocks everyone, gibi should have the final say as PTL however.
09:07:39 lyarwood I'm going to spend some time this morning going over the other failures and making sure we have bugs / ER queries etc for each
09:09:21 lyarwood kashyap: hmm why is this even listed as live block migration?
09:09:26 lyarwood kashyap: it's just a paused instance
09:09:51 kashyap lyarwood: So it is migrating a paused instance but _with_ storage, isn't it?
09:10:18 lyarwood kashyap: yeah, it's just making assumptions about the env that storage isn't shared
09:10:37 lyarwood I guess that's what block_migration_for_live_migration is checking
09:10:37 kashyap Aah, so it might well be a shared storage setup, but the test is dubious
09:11:06 kashyap I wonder if that's why the NBD copy was cancelled - it must've detected "hey, it's shared storage, no need for copy, hence I'm cancelling it"
09:11:33 lyarwood kashyap: no I don't think the storage is in this job
09:11:42 kashyap So, it is non-shared storage?
09:11:57 lyarwood yeah sorry I'm just confusing the situation
09:12:16 kashyap No prob
09:12:23 lyarwood oh you know what this is
09:12:49 lyarwood it's the back and forth LM of a paused instance issue we saw downstream
09:13:28 kashyap Ohh, wait - that rings a faint bell
09:13:46 lyarwood 2020-10-27 16:59:16.022725 | primary | 2020-10-27 16:59:16.022 | 2020-10-27 16:59:06,664 22654 INFO [tempest.api.compute.admin.test_live_migration] Live migrate back to source ubuntu-bionic-rax-iad-0021082674
09:13:54 kashyap IIRC, we ruled it out as a bogus test?
09:14:05 lyarwood yeah the QEMU devs said it was fubar
09:14:36 kashyap Do you recall that other bug no. by any chance, from your browser history?
09:14:48 kashyap Hang on, I found it
09:15:02 kashyap Because I recall "fixing" the bug description myself :D
09:15:07 lyarwood haha
09:21:19 kashyap lyarwood: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1713009
09:21:19 openstack bugzilla.redhat.com bug 1713009 in qemu-kvm "[QEMU] Back-n-forth live migration of a paused VM results in QEMU crash with: "bdrv_inactivate_recurse: Assertion `!(bs->open_flags & BDRV_O_INACTIVE)' failed."" [Unspecified,New] - Assigned to kwolf
09:21:19 kashyap "Back-n-forth live migration of a paused VM results in QEMU crash ..."
09:21:19 lyarwood you know what, I didn't even check the QEMU logs for this failure upstream
09:21:20 kashyap If we see the QEMU crash, then it's this. Let's see
09:21:20 lyarwood I don't see this
09:21:20 kashyap 1 sec, on the phone
09:24:21 kashyap lyarwood: So the libvirtd log in the bug is from destination host, yeah?
09:24:39 kashyap (I think so, based on the "migrate-incoming" bit in the log)
09:25:41 lyarwood kashyap: yeah
09:28:44 kashyap lyarwood: So, to recap: should we care about this test that is "invalid" - what is the point of doing back-n-forth LM of a paused instance?
09:28:59 kashyap Also, have you got the QEMU command-line of the instance log in question? /me goes searching
09:31:17 kashyap Hm, which of the instances is it here - https://api.us-east.open-edge.io:8080/swift/v1/AUTH_e02c11e4e2c24efc98022353c88ab506/zuul_opendev_logs_30d/759831/4/gate/nova-grenade-multinode/30d8eb1/logs/libvirt/qemu/index.html
09:31:33 lyarwood instance-0000001e
09:31:46 kashyap Okay, I looked at the "right one", then
09:32:05 kashyap (Also, the "-incoming defer" confirms it's the dest host)
09:32:57 kashyap lyarwood: It's also in the instance log, as you surely must know - 4d564e22-8ba4-48fb-ac93-27bea660fd77
09:34:39 lyarwood kashyap: right my point was that the log should use the UUID as the filename, IOW we should use it as the domain name
09:34:54 lyarwood kashyap: but I think there's an upgrade issue with that so we've never tried
09:34:56 kashyap Ah, guessed as much; consistency across the board
09:35:33 kashyap lyarwood: Source host logs are under subnode-2/ dir, right?
09:35:42 kashyap Yep
09:44:58 kashyap lyarwood: So, I collated the useful bits from the logs here, to check w/ the QEMU/libvirt folks - https://kashyapc.fedorapeople.org/LP-1901739/
09:47:00 lyarwood ack thanks
09:48:43 kashyap lyarwood: So, is this an apt descrption: back-n-forth live migration (w/o shared storage) of a paused instance causes this missing block job data?
09:50:28 lyarwood frickler: any idea how your last recheck of https://review.opendev.org/#/c/759831/ has ended up with it in both the check and gate queues at the same time?
09:53:31 frickler lyarwood: I manually enqueued it into the gate directly
09:53:38 lyarwood frickler: ah my bad
09:54:10 frickler lyarwood: I did the recheck because I didn't see the earlier ones, only the -2 from gate
10:08:39 kashyap lyarwood: BTW, ignore my earlier wondering about the use-case for back-n-forth LM of a paused guest. I just thought of one plausible case:
10:08:52 kashyap You migrate a paused a instance; it succeeds. But then you suddenly realize: "oh, I actually need to do some maint work on this dest, so I need to migrate this VM _back_ to the source again"
10:18:44 lyarwood frickler: ack no issues, I was just confused how it ended up in both queues at the same time
10:29:02 gibi frickler: I have no objection force merging https://review.opendev.org/759831
10:40:37 openstackgerrit Merged openstack/nova master: libvirt: Only ask tpool.Proxy to autowrap vir* classes https://review.opendev.org/759831
10:41:27 frickler gibi: ^^ done
10:46:42 lyarwood many thanks
10:51:15 gibi frickler: thank you
10:52:49 lyarwood stephenfin: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/758971/ updated btw
10:53:15 lyarwood gibi: https://review.opendev.org/#/q/topic:bug/1899649 would you mind taking a look at this if you have time ahead of the ptg
10:56:29 stephenfin lyarwood: +2; thanks for that
11:01:02 gibi lyarwood: sure, looking
11:05:06 openstackgerrit Stephen Finucane proposed openstack/nova master: tox: Stop linting as part of docs target https://review.opendev.org/735176
11:10:01 stephenfin lyarwood: Think you could take a gawk at https://review.opendev.org/#/q/topic:bug/1898272+(status:open+OR+status:merged) too?
11:10:48 lyarwood stephenfin: sure
11:25:07 gibi lyarwood: I left a question in https://review.opendev.org/#/c/757894/2/nova/compute/manager.py@a2233
11:27:20 kashyap gibi: [Maybe I'll get kicked off this channel for sayin it] Speaking of caffeine, I switched to decaf-only after 10:00 AM (for my afternoon coffee.
11:28:05 kashyap gibi: Because of a certain sleep scientist; check this 2-min msg from him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGfdR7TSJo4
11:28:29 gibi kashyap: we are inclusive, no kicks due to decaf consumption :)
11:28:37 kashyap Haha
11:28:39 kashyap gibi: "If you have a cup of coffee at noon, then a quarter of that caffeine is still in your brain at _midnight_."
11:28:46 kashyap But --^ that was startling to me
11:29:23 kashyap (That said, PTG demands more caffeine)
11:31:38 gibi now I'm wondering about 5 o'clock tea too
11:32:14 gibi for me tea has a lower but more elongated effect
11:32:27 kashyap Yeah, I've been decaf in the afternoon for 4 days in a row. And my sleep is steadily improving already
11:33:31 kashyap gibi: BTW, his book (https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/295/295665/why-we-sleep/9780141983769.html) that is referenced earlier is excellent. (I've also suggested it to Eric Fried in the past, he said he thoroughly enojyed it, FWIW)
11:33:45 lyarwood gibi: ack thanks looking
11:36:25 gibi kashyap: thanks
