| 16:22:02 | gibi | sh*t | |
| 16:22:05 | bauzas | kashyap: I haven't forgotten you, will ping you when we're at open discussion topic | |
| 16:22:11 | bauzas | gibi: YUUUUP | |
| 16:22:31 | sean-k-mooney | time flys | |
| 16:22:55 | bauzas | and /me needs to propose Nov 16th for spec review day at the next meeting | |
| 16:23:18 | bauzas | gibi: I tried using the cloning machine, buy my clones don't wanna work on IT | |
| 16:23:33 | bauzas | this is sad | |
| 16:23:37 | bauzas | let's move one | |
| 16:23:41 | bauzas | on* even | |
| 16:23:45 | bauzas | #topic Review priorities | |
| 16:23:52 | bauzas | #link https://review.opendev.org/q/status:open+(project:openstack/nova+OR+project:openstack/placement)+label:Review-Priority%252B1 | |
| 16:24:00 | bauzas | I know we agreed on changing a few things | |
| 16:24:05 | gibi | I've reviewed some and marked some | |
| 16:24:12 | bauzas | I'll work on a doc change this week if I have time | |
| 16:24:31 | bauzas | gibi: I need to jump on my owns sooner than later | |
| 16:24:51 | gibi | bauzas: this has momentum now https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/815373 so I suggest to start with that | |
| 16:25:04 | bauzas | sean-k-mooney: once I'm done with proposing the doc change, feel free to write a dependent patch for the ACL thingies | |
| 16:25:22 | gibi | sorry wrong link | |
| 16:25:26 | bauzas | hah | |
| 16:25:34 | bauzas | was wondering why you were proposing this one | |
| 16:25:37 | gibi | the other mdev https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/810220 | |
| 16:25:47 | gibi | I think there are issues to discuss there ^^ | |
| 16:26:00 | gibi | I will check the mdev + resume soon too | |
| 16:26:07 | bauzas | ki | |
| 16:26:07 | bauzas | bk | |
| 16:26:21 | bauzas | gibi: yeah, I was thinking about it when reviewing | |
| 16:26:21 | sean-k-mooney | bauzas: sure we did it the otherway around the last time i kind of feel like gating the docs change on the porject config one is more correct but it really dose not matter | |
| 16:26:36 | bauzas | gibi: we need to test it with devstack | |
| 16:26:49 | bauzas | I'm not sure all the services are up and the RT running | |
| 16:26:55 | bauzas | when we call the methods | |
| 16:27:11 | bauzas | but this needs me looking at the code first before I reply | |
| 16:27:19 | sean-k-mooney | bauzas: the only way to test the mdev stuff in devstack is if we can use the fake mdev kernel modules | |
| 16:27:29 | gibi | bauzas: no before driver.init_host we should not call other driver methods and defintely there is no RT populated as we dont know about our nodes from the hypervisor | |
| 16:27:29 | sean-k-mooney | unless you mean just manually and not in ci | |
| 16:27:30 | bauzas | sean-k-mooney: or use my own env... :) | |
| 16:27:52 | bauzas | well, provided I'm able to create a devstack env | |
| 16:28:00 | bauzas | which I failed with rhel 8.2 | |
| 16:28:05 | bauzas | but meh | |
| 16:28:21 | bauzas | #topic Stable Branches | |
| 16:28:23 | sean-k-mooney | bauzas: now that we have generic mdev support it might want to see if we can support the dummy kernel moduels at some point | |
| 16:28:30 | bauzas | elodilles: floor is yours | |
| 16:28:38 | elodilles | from xena till train the gates are not blocked | |
| 16:28:40 | kashyap | bauzas: On a phone call :-( Will come back here; it's not super urgent | |
| 16:28:42 | bauzas | sean-k-mooney: agreed | |
| 16:28:48 | kashyap | bauzas: In short, it's this one: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-October/025500.html | |
| 16:28:49 | elodilles | stein and older stable branches are blocked, needs the setuptools pinning patch to unblock: https://review.opendev.org/q/I26b2a14e0b91c0ab77299c3e4fbed5f7916fe8cf | |
| 16:28:56 | kashyap | And it's resolved now. | |
| 16:29:12 | elodilles | Ussuri Extended Maintenance transition is in two weeks (Nov 12) | |
| 16:29:22 | kashyap | (The resolution: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-October/025527.html) | |
| 16:29:29 | elodilles | we might not need another release on ussuri before the transition, as there are not that many patch merged since the last release from early October | |
| 16:29:52 | elodilles | (the list of open and unreleased patches anyway: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-stable-ussuri-em ) | |
| 16:30:02 | elodilles | that's it ^^^ | |
| 16:30:05 | gibi | elodilles: when you say not many, you mean zero bugfix? | |
| 16:30:07 | bauzas | elodilles: if you feel we need to do some reviewing efforts before EM, let me know | |
| 16:30:26 | elodilles | gibi: i mean 1 or 2 bugfix :) | |
| 16:30:29 | sean-k-mooney | elodilles: ack i might try to rebase and submit the libvirt os-vif deleagtion patchs | |
| 16:30:51 | sean-k-mooney | before ussuri em if there is another release | |
| 16:30:56 | gibi | elodilles: hm if there are real fixes there then I might make sense to release them before we EM | |
| 16:31:11 | gibi | s/I/it/ | |
| 16:31:19 | bauzas | agreed with gibi | |
| 16:31:25 | elodilles | yes, it makes sense to release, | |
| 16:31:55 | elodilles | though we shouldn't hurry with merging things if we are not sure that it won't cause any regression | |
| 16:32:05 | elodilles | as this will be the *final* release | |
| 16:32:39 | bauzas | elodilles: I'm a bit busy tomorrow as I promised many things but I'd appreciate if you could chase me and a couple of other cores about reviews either Thursday or next week | |
| 16:33:11 | elodilles | bauzas: sure, | |
| 16:33:28 | elodilles | there are some bug fixes that needs a 2nd +2 | |
| 16:34:01 | elodilles | but if anyone see any other bugfix that would be good to merge, then let us know | |
| 16:34:14 | bauzas | cool | |
| 16:34:52 | bauzas | #topic Sub/related team Highlights | |
| 16:35:01 | bauzas | lyarwood is still on PTO | |
| 16:35:23 | bauzas | so I'll skip this part and I don't think we need to discuss about libvirt by now | |
| 16:35:30 | bauzas | #topic Open discussion | |
| 16:35:36 | bauzas | #agreed Reminder : The Asian-friendly meeting is now cancelled due to lack of presence. | |
| 16:35:56 | bauzas | so we won't run a meeting on Nov 4th | |
| 16:36:05 | bauzas | I'll send an email accordingly | |
| 16:36:57 | bauzas | just a personal note, I'll be on company PTO on Friday 29th and Nov 1st is bank holiday in France | |
| 16:37:15 | bauzas | so don't expect me between Thursday EOB and Tuesday | |
| 16:37:54 | bauzas | we have one item that was written in the wiki | |
| 16:38:01 | bauzas | add Support volumes backed by VStorageObject -> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/vmware-fcd and https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/808791 | |
| 16:38:37 | sean-k-mooney | yes so as far as i can tell i think they implemented the feature in cinder and likely the out of tree driver | |
| 16:38:39 | bauzas | not sure the proposer is around | |
| 16:38:49 | sean-k-mooney | now they are looking to add support in the intree one | |
| 16:38:53 | bauzas | I don't know his IRC nick | |
| 16:39:04 | bauzas | so I can't ping him | |
| 16:39:49 | gibi | looking at the patch the change is confined in the vmware driver | |
| 16:39:57 | sean-k-mooney | ya so i reviewed this and to me this si a feature not a bug so i assed them to raise this in this meeting | |
| 16:40:10 | gibi | so I think it is OK as a specless bp | |
| 16:40:13 | sean-k-mooney | im infavor of just proceeding with this as a speckless bp | |
| 16:40:52 | bauzas | OK, we don't have a lof of people around | |
| 16:40:58 | sean-k-mooney | its not a bug so it should not be backported but as i mentioned above i stonly suspect this was implemente din the out of tree driver and they are just closing the gap | |
| 16:40:59 | bauzas | but we can make it a specless BP | |
| 16:41:06 | bauzas | do people agree ? | |
| 16:41:48 | sean-k-mooney | yep | |
| 16:41:54 | bauzas | #agreed https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/vmware-fcd approved as a specless blueprint | |
| 16:41:54 | gibi | yep | |
| 16:42:01 | sean-k-mooney | the cinder feature was completed 4 years ago by the way https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/521213/ | |
| 16:42:32 | bauzas | (/me can't remember how to formally approve BPs in Launchpad but that's something I'll sort out after this meeting) | |
| 16:42:53 | sean-k-mooney | that one already is | |
| 16:42:58 | bauzas | I just did | |
| 16:43:04 | sean-k-mooney | ah | |
