13:59:19 bauzas lyarwood: I was wondering about a regression test but if not, fair.
14:00:48 lyarwood I can land some tests after this but backporting functional tests to stable/train is a royal PITA at the moment
14:01:08 lyarwood there's an actual issue with this that didn't come up in the unit tests btw
14:01:13 lyarwood but somehow the LC job caught it
14:02:01 lyarwood during a live migration we pass the _get_volume_config method around and end up calling it from nova.virt.libvirt.migration._update_volume_xml without access to the instance, borking the approach I've taken
14:02:15 kashyap bauzas: Also ... as you know, to meaningfully test SEV, you need real hardware
14:02:16 lyarwood I'll correct and respin now
14:02:32 lyarwood kashyap: well not functional, that's the entire point
14:02:45 bauzas lyarwood: yeah I wasn't asking about a functtest in the main change, sorry
14:02:55 kashyap lyarwood: Right; I realize. "Functional" in Nova still does some stubbing, right?
14:03:04 bauzas lyarwood: something like a separate patch we could use for verifying this works
14:03:34 kashyap lyarwood: Anyway...don't want to dissuade you from any tests you have in mind
14:03:35 lyarwood kashyap: yeah and here we are just asserting things about the XML we are providing libvirt
14:03:42 bauzas lyarwood: like we actually do for virtual GPUs for example
14:03:49 kashyap lyarwood: Yeah, for that part, it's fair enough
14:27:05 opendevreview John Garbutt proposed openstack/nova master: Enforce api and db limits https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/712142
14:37:32 opendevreview John Garbutt proposed openstack/nova master: Update quota_class APIs for db and api limits https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/712143

14:41:56 opendevreview John Garbutt proposed openstack/nova master: Update quota sets APIs https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/712749
15:17:50 artom When was the last time we talked about preemptible instances? (Most recent) Denver?
15:18:05 artom Anyone remember the outcome?
15:26:53 opendevreview Kashyap Chamarthy proposed openstack/nova master: Allow 'bochs' as a display device option https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/794796
15:28:20 kashyap artom: Hey, completely unrelated: did I miss anything else to bump in the above? (I'm pinging you, as you did something similar for your "socket" (for PCI NUMA affinity) thingie)
15:28:38 artom kashyap, lemme check
15:29:50 kashyap artom: Hmm, okay ... this is the one failing test: http://paste.openstack.org/show/806427/. How do I update that hash?
15:30:02 opendevreview Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova master: libvirt: Set driver_iommu when attaching virtio devices to SEV instance https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/794639
15:30:30 artom kashyap, it's in nova/tests/unit/objects/test_objects.py - just grep for the old 'reference' hash, and change it to the new one
15:31:46 kashyap artom: Okay, a stupid question: where do I "discover" the new hash?
15:31:57 artom kashyap, you don't, the tests will tell you :)
15:32:08 artom At least that's what I always do.
15:32:15 kashyap Ah, right; it should catch it
15:32:34 kashyap artom: Okay, that's good. Lemme try
15:32:41 artom Any time I change objects, I try to remember to run test_objects, then update the hashes.
15:33:44 kashyap artom: You mean 'test_versions'?
15:33:51 kashyap But yeah, point noted...
15:35:11 kashyap artom: Thanks.
15:36:01 artom kashyap, well, test_versions in test_objects.py
15:37:18 kashyap Yep; yar.
15:38:27 kashyap Alright, that fixes it
15:42:16 opendevreview Kashyap Chamarthy proposed openstack/nova master: Allow 'bochs' as a display device option https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/794796
15:52:02 bauzas artom: about preemptible instances, we said "go for it"
15:52:11 bauzas but not something in Nova
15:52:27 bauzas a specific other service, and it was maybe Blazar
15:52:40 artom IIRC there was a thing called "Reaper"?
15:52:40 bauzas priteau: do you remember when and where we said this ?
15:53:01 bauzas artom: correct, something done by john and the CERN IIRC
15:53:52 bauzas I remember this https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/blazar-specs/specs/ussuri/blazar-preemptible-instances.html
15:54:07 priteau bauzas: I think we mentioned the reaper in Blazar in Denver PTG (Sep 2018)
15:54:23 opendevreview Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Add attachmentId to responses of the os-volume_attachments API https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/794799
15:54:58 kashyap artom: When you can, please give your ack (or nack, if need be) again? I uploaded a rev right after you did.
15:55:17 priteau bauzas: but that was maybe before aardvark was completed
15:56:18 lyarwood https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/793463 should be ready for review if anyone has time btw
15:56:30 bauzas priteau: this one, right? https://gitlab.cern.ch/ttsiouts/aardvark
15:56:33 bauzas artom: ^
15:56:38 priteau yep
15:58:07 artom Is https://gitlab.cern.ch/ttsiouts/aardvark the continuation of https://gitlab.cern.ch/ttsiouts/ReaperServicePrototype?
15:58:12 artom Also, both look fairly dead
16:10:29 priteau artom: I believe it the continuation, yes. Unfortunately ttsiouts has left CERN and I don't believe this work has been picked up by anyone else.
16:10:56 priteau Also I think there were some disagreement on the nova modifications required for this (pending state)
16:11:36 artom priteau, ack, thanks for the context!
16:11:42 artom priteau, are you with CERN, btw?
16:15:02 priteau I am not, but I work with John Garbutt at StackHPC who I think was involved in the discussions
16:16:23 priteau See https://review.opendev.org/q/owner:theodoros.tsioutsias%2540cern.ch+project:openstack/nova for the proposed changes
16:21:40 artom priteau, yep, I remember John being involved/interested
16:23:05 artom priteau, reason for all these questions is that we (Red Hat) have been asked to make preemptible instances a thing
16:23:38 priteau By customers?
16:23:52 artom priteau, yeah. I suspect the answer will be "no" because we don't have the manpower to essentially bootstrap a new project (Reaper, or whatever it ends up being called) by ourselves
16:24:12 artom But maybe, just maybe, if there's enough money on the line, and community drive, it can happen
16:24:18 artom An item for next PTG, perhaps
16:26:20 priteau Yeah that would be good
16:28:01 priteau I've proposed a spec for blazar to implement preemptibles, because in the context of using reservations it can be done without changes to nova
16:30:52 priteau That's the one linked by bauzas earlier: https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/blazar-specs/specs/ussuri/blazar-preemptible-instances.html
16:31:19 artom priteau, if that's the way it moves forward, RH would still have to productize Blazaar...
16:31:50 artom priteau, but good to know there would be no new code for us (RH) to write
16:31:53 priteau Yeah I am not saying this is a full solution for you ;)
16:32:11 artom Despite our millions, we're surprisingly people-strapped :P
16:32:30 artom Just getting Designate up and running was a more than year-long thing.

21:08:12 melwitt dansmith: then you get the angry eyebrows >:|
21:08:32 dansmith ...which are more scary than a blocked gate, so... okay
21:09:18 melwitt or the look of disapproval ಠ_ಠ
21:09:20 melwitt :)
21:10:06 dansmith oh god, my childhood all over again
