#openstack-nova - 2021-11-04
15:13:05 gibi sean-k-mooney, artom: I read that ironic related nova patch, I see that it is correct and does not affect spawn, but now I'm affraid that sean-k-mooney has things I'm missing
15:13:07 artom Meow.
15:13:19 artom gibi, you and me both
15:13:24 gibi we need more cats
15:13:33 bauzas I have a dog
15:13:39 gibi then you are out
15:13:41 gibi :P
15:13:49 bauzas cats are selfish
15:13:50 artom Ionesco says dogs are cats
15:13:56 sean-k-mooney gibi: im mostly uncofrotable with changing the meaing of plug_vifs to be honest
15:13:59 artom He also says that Socrates was a cat
15:14:12 sean-k-mooney im currently reviewing the spawn path
15:14:22 artom sean-k-mooney, I don't think that's our call to make, every driver can do what they want
15:14:26 bauzas artom: the only merit to cats is that they help to prove some theorem
15:14:40 bauzas about quantic nature
15:15:30 artom Only if they're in boxes
15:16:58 sean-k-mooney artom: its used here https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/fded762f4df26ff5706438a66da33ff966f833c6/nova/virt/ironic/driver.py#L1910
15:17:04 sean-k-mooney which is used by the compute manger here https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/fded762f4df26ff5706438a66da33ff966f833c6/nova/compute/manager.py#L2597
15:17:17 sean-k-mooney in _build_resources
15:17:26 gibi sean-k-mooney: our virt driver interface has the plug_vif method but we only use that from the computa manager in init_host
15:17:37 sean-k-mooney which is part of _build_and_run_instance
15:17:37 gibi sean-k-mooney: that call is transformed out in the proposed patch
15:17:49 artom sean-k-mooney, yeah, and that's been inlined here: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/813263/3/nova/virt/ironic/driver.py#1919
15:18:20 gibi sean-k-mooney: and that call paths is totaly ironic specific, libvirt virt driver does not call back to plug_vifs during spawn
15:18:22 artom AFAICT, TheJulia did her homework :)
15:18:26 sean-k-mooney oh that prepare_networks_before_block_device_mapping
15:19:06 sean-k-mooney gibi: well we do use it internally in the virt dirver i think in livemigration and maybe hard reboot
15:19:14 sean-k-mooney but perhaps not directly in spwan
15:19:17 gibi sean-k-mooney: not the virt driver interface
15:19:34 sean-k-mooney gibi not the virt dirver interface not but the funciton in the dirver
15:19:40 artom TheJulia, we're trying to convince sean-k-mooney you're plug_vifs() patch is correct :)
15:19:50 artom *your
15:19:52 TheJulia oh, yes, it is correct as far as I've been able to navigate
15:19:55 artom Oh god, I'm one of them now
15:19:58 TheJulia since ironic handles all attachment management
15:20:16 artom The people who put apostrophe's in plural's and no apostrophe's in possessive's
15:20:37 sean-k-mooney TheJulia: it was the swan path i was concerned about i had not expanded the context lins areound https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/813263/3/nova/virt/ironic/driver.py#1919
15:20:59 sean-k-mooney TheJulia: the change you made in prepare_networks_before_block_device_mapping will ensure we actully plug the vifs still on spwan
15:21:15 TheJulia and due to that, and the duality use of attach_interfaces being present, it is entirely redundant and harmful behavior for the operators to experience with nova-computes running the ironic driver
15:21:28 gibi sean-k-mooney: I see
15:21:54 artom TheJulia, what does plugging the vifs mean in an Ironic context, anyways? Calling out to a physical switch and setting vlans and stuff?
15:22:06 sean-k-mooney TheJulia: what i was really concerned about is regressing spawn such that the compute manger would not wait for the vifs to be configured on the network swtich berofre powering on the server
15:22:18 sean-k-mooney but it looks like that cant happen so ill +1 it shortly
15:22:29 TheJulia artom: recording there should be an attachment, that is only sent to neutron until once the states change to active
15:22:59 TheJulia sean-k-mooney: those are persistant and managed through the workflow and neutron ml2 plugins
15:23:24 TheJulia sean-k-mooney: but totally valid concern not knowing the rest of the mechanics
15:24:27 sean-k-mooney TheJulia: well i mean this is not something that ironic should really mange entrily on its own so jsut making sure we still have the correct mechamins in place on the nova side
15:25:42 sean-k-mooney altough looking at that code path we dont seam to be correctly waiting for the neutron external event in _plug_vifs
15:25:44 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/fded762f4df26ff5706438a66da33ff966f833c6/nova/virt/ironic/driver.py#L1492-L1525
15:26:10 sean-k-mooney we are just callign the node.vif_attach api
15:26:14 TheJulia sean-k-mooney: it must because of a security lifecycle must be enforced
15:26:19 sean-k-mooney so this looks like there is an existing race
15:26:23 TheJulia and it knows the state of the lifecycle
15:27:25 EugenMayer Anybody in here got novnc working with kolla when using TLS? TLS is working on all sub-systems except when using TLS. lyarwood it seems like they use a haproxy (i got told) which does the SSL offloading, which might be the reason it is not configured. But this would not explain the error message
15:27:46 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
15:29:47 TheJulia sean-k-mooney: on start, but if the vif recrods are already on file, on start it doesn't matter, the nova-compute spins for quite a long time.
15:30:02 TheJulia for running state, that is a separate path and that has been the case for a while, I think.
15:50:42 TheJulia so I think I grok sean-k-mooney's concerns, and just to be on the safe side, I'll go change my "test nova-y tings patch in the ironic repo to pull that vif plug patch in and just make sure that it passes happily again. I believe it did so before, but there is the BFV use case which is a little different
15:54:15 opendevreview Alexey Stupnikov proposed openstack/nova master: WIP: Test aborting queued live migration https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/776250
15:55:03 TheJulia artom: that hash ring handling wip seems to work, which is a good sign. Likely just need to go see if the devstack plugin forces a rebalance... and maybe make it force a rebalance :)
15:55:51 artom TheJulia, yeah, I need to look at it again and properly wrap my head around it
15:57:10 TheJulia artom: yeah, a little different by just reconciling "what is running/active" versuse explicit record checks for each instance, but I'd hate to trigger a few thousand extra DB queries upon rebalance
15:59:04 TheJulia changed https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/ironic/+/813264 to run the vif plug change
15:59:26 TheJulia sean-k-mooney: ^^ if the ironic bfv job passes, I suspect we're safe and happy for the time being
16:03:16 sean-k-mooney ack tahnks
16:27:01 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Remove SESSION_CONFIGURED global from DB fixture https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/815689
16:27:01 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Refactor Database fixture https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/815690
16:29:50 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: Fix interference in db unit test https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/814735
16:32:36 melwitt gibi: just read your comments, I might be wrong but if I am then I don't understand why it's needed. I'll look at it some more
16:33:19 gibi melwitt: I followed your suggestion and things are still passing, so I think you are right
16:33:49 melwitt oh ok
16:34:07 gibi so you were right that I don't need to patch the per connection case
16:34:34 melwitt ack
18:00:55 EugenMayer lyarwood FYI - kolla supports tls for novnc but uses a haproxy as SSL offloaded and LB in front of it. My issues was an internal vs external VIP IP. So kolla has support for it
18:01:19 lyarwood cool cool
18:34:34 opendevreview Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova master: nova-next: Deploy noVNC from source instead of packages https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/816738
18:41:56 opendevreview Lee Yarwood proposed openstack/nova master: nova-next: Drop NOVA_USE_SERVICE_TOKEN from subnode https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/816740
20:31:31 opendevreview Gustavo Santos proposed openstack/nova master: Reattach mdevs to guest on resume https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/815373
22:07:36 opendevreview sean mooney proposed openstack/nova master: [WIP] Add extra tests for pinning with partial siblings https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/816758

07:33:22 kashyap frickler: Morning: https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2021-November/msg00171.html
08:17:50 frickler kashyap: nice, thx for that. we did change the bullseye job to use swap for now, that seems rather stable and is still faster than the serial variant
08:19:01 kashyap No problem; I think the series will be respun to use -accel for accelerator in general. (https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/issues/233)
09:46:41 gibi elodilles: hi! you can upgrade your vote ;) on the victoria part of https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:bug/1944759 as the wallaby patches have landed
10:00:33 elodilles gibi: \o/
10:00:37 elodilles gibi: done
10:00:41 gibi thanks a lot
10:00:54 elodilles no problem :)
10:10:50 frickler kashyap: already there. nice monster patch updating umpteen tests ;)
10:11:35 kashyap frickler: Yep, v2 (from Michal) is large because of the test noise - https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2021-November/msg00194.html
10:11:59 kashyap frickler: I'm just wiring up the XML config class in Nova. And writing a commit message
10:45:39 EugenMayer is there really no better way or even usual default to start vms after a node reboot then adding resume_guests_state_on_host_boot to the nova conf and/or using virsh to add the autostart flag? There is no GUI nor nova API flag (openstack server create) flag to automatically create an instance with autostart?
