#openstack-nova - 2021-10-26
16:45:49 kashyap bauzas: Yes, here
16:45:51 bauzas #link http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-October/025500.html
16:45:54 kashyap bauzas: Sorry for "talking over" earlier
16:46:08 bauzas is this^ more a FYI ?
16:46:12 kashyap Yep
16:46:26 kashyap bauzas: In short: DevStack now defults to "Nehalem" CPU model for reasons outlined there.
16:46:43 bauzas kashyap: devstack/rhel you mean ?
16:46:47 kashyap No
16:46:50 kashyap DevStack upstream
16:47:06 kashyap I worked w/ Clark to get the patch merged in DevStack
16:47:20 bauzas I mean, devstack all distros or only upstream devstack with rhel ?
16:47:40 kashyap For all.
16:47:44 bauzas ack
16:47:54 sean-k-mooney for all on x86
16:47:57 kashyap Everything is summarized and resolved in that thread.
16:48:23 kashyap Yes, x86 is "implied architecture", when we don't name an arch :)
16:48:47 bauzas okay, do we need further actions, like documenting it ?
16:48:55 bauzas in our relnotes or in the install docs ?
16:49:07 sean-k-mooney no we dont need to document anythign in nova
16:49:15 kashyap Yep; nothing needs documentation in Nova
16:49:27 bauzas my confusion comes from the fact we changed default for all distros, not only rhel
16:49:27 sean-k-mooney rhel have documented there new compilation target already in a blog
16:49:37 kashyap bauzas: No further action; just an FYI here ... if anyone in case notices "why is DevStack giving me Nehalem by default"
16:49:48 kashyap Yep; linked to in the post to the upstream list
16:50:05 bauzas kashyap: little chances that people notice this change by looking at our meeting minutes, honestly
16:50:24 bauzas but okay, noted.
16:50:31 kashyap bauzas: I've notified the Whitebox / CI folks to change their scripts too
16:50:45 kashyap So, the right parties are notified. I'm not expecting anyone to read these minutes here :)
16:50:54 sean-k-mooney bauzas: well honestly its a better default then qemu64 and its so old at this poitn everythign supprots it
16:51:02 sean-k-mooney bauzas: which is basicaly why it was done for all
16:51:30 kashyap bauzas: The change is a better default too. Yes. (Besides solving the switch to a new x86 baseline)
16:51:33 sean-k-mooney the jobs also might get slictly faster as a restult but that would just be a nice benift and not the intent
16:51:48 kashyap Yep; there will be slight improvement
16:52:15 bauzas OK, nice to hear
16:52:22 bauzas are we done ?
16:52:26 kashyap bauzas: That's all. I don't want to take up more time. But those interested / affected in CI/QE/Infra are notified, and I'm working w/ them.
16:52:31 kashyap Yep.
16:52:40 bauzas kashyap: excellent, thanks for providing guidance
16:52:54 gibi kashyap++
16:53:08 bauzas I think we can reasonably call this meeting a wrap
16:53:24 bauzas I was expecting it to be shorter, but meh, good talks

16:53:41 gibi bauzas: thanks!
16:53:55 bauzas yeah me too
16:54:44 sean-k-mooney fyi like bauzas i will be taking some pto around the weekend
16:55:07 bauzas I'll be Parisian for the weekend
16:55:22 bauzas although I'm already grumbling for nothing.
16:55:32 sean-k-mooney i need to book it still but firday and monday for sure and maybe ill exened it from thursday-turuseday inclusive
16:55:45 bauzas sean-k-mooney: ack, noticed.
16:56:08 sean-k-mooney thanks for doing the PTG summary by the way
16:56:21 sean-k-mooney i have not read it yet but ill try and skim over it later
16:57:29 elodilles sean-k-mooney: ping we if you updated the libvirt/os-vif related patches that you mentioned for the ussuri release, and I'll try to review them ASAP
16:58:31 sean-k-mooney elodilles: i need to redo it for the newer reelase first
16:59:17 sean-k-mooney elodilles: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/790447 is missing one of the 3 patches that were ment to be squashed together
16:59:45 elodilles sean-k-mooney: ack
16:59:55 sean-k-mooney so i need to fix that one first and then propose it we have had some asks to backport this downstream recently too so i need to fix these up
17:00:11 sean-k-mooney if it end up missing the final release its proably ok but would be nice to include
17:00:20 elodilles hmm, so it needs to be merged in wallaby then victoria then ussuri :S
17:00:37 sean-k-mooney yep which is why im not sure it will make it in 2 weeks
17:00:53 sean-k-mooney so this is really just a nice to have not something to hold the release for
17:01:37 elodilles OK, no problem, let's try then. just ping me and I'll review them :)
17:01:47 sean-k-mooney ack thanks
17:38:54 gmann gibi: 1 comment on this otherwise lgtm https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/tempest/+/809168
17:40:21 gmann gibi: sorry for not mentioning about that method to use in my previous comment
18:33:32 sean-k-mooney gmann: i know this is a little out of your normal review spcace but feel like taking a look at https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/811947
18:34:16 sean-k-mooney gmann: ill ping some other folks tomorow if you dont have time to look but it would be nice to get the last +2 on that
18:34:25 sean-k-mooney anyway going to call it a night o/

#openstack-nova - 2021-10-27
08:56:40 gibi good day nova
09:17:47 bauzas hola folks
09:20:41 gibi o/
09:20:54 gibi -another day in downstream land-
09:34:50 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Add a WA flag waiting for vif-plugged event during reboot https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/813419
10:58:44 gibi stephenfin: do you recall why you needed to configure both db in a single Database fixture in https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/799526/5/nova/tests/fixtures/nova.py#612 ?
10:59:29 gibi I think our tests are using a separate fixture instance for each db (api, main)
11:00:18 stephenfin gibi: I'm not 100% sure but my guess is that I don't, and that was simply for expediency/laziness :) If SESSION_CONFIGURED became a mapping of DB type to "is configured" bool, we probably wouldn't need that
11:00:28 stephenfin *we don't
11:01:00 gibi I see so we had a single global but with two dbs to configure
11:01:07 stephenfin Yeah, I think so
11:02:48 gibi OK, if that is the only reason then I think I have a way to remove that global flag (based on melwitt's idea) with patch_factory from oslo_db
11:03:15 gibi it is no pretty confusing that we have to Database fixture intantiated one for main and one for api but the first one configures both db
11:03:38 gibi s/no/now
11:03:47 gibi /to/two
11:03:50 gibi /o\
11:04:20 stephenfin yeah, tbc it could be more complicated than that but I really doubt it
11:08:07 gibi yeah, lets see if my idea works
11:12:21 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: since your about here an easy one for you https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/811947 think we can get that over the line
11:13:43 stephenfin sure, will look now
11:14:05 sean-k-mooney thanks :)
11:19:44 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: based on the ptg discussion woudl you mind removing your -2 on https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/804292 im going to rebase that and the autopep8 one shortly
13:05:29 frickler kashyap: I didn't make progress with reproduction without nova yet, so I created https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/693 for now. let me know if you need additional data there
13:08:38 kashyap frickler: Thanks for the report. A quick one is: were you using nested setup, or was this DevStack instance on a baremetal host (<shudder>)?
13:09:07 kashyap A thumb-rule is to always explicitly state so if you're using a nested setup
13:09:47 kashyap frickler: Can you edit the report to state that "deploy DevStack in a VM?" So that an unsuspecting dev won't run it on their baremetal laptop and wreak havoc...
