| 13:57:56 | sean-k-mooney | we coudl rework this os that we apply the extra cpu flags to the model before we do the compat test | |
| 13:58:21 | sean-k-mooney | that woudl allow you to add cpu_model_extra_flags=-mpx | |
| 13:59:01 | sean-k-mooney | and provide that combination was valid it would proceed | |
| 13:59:28 | noonedeadpunk | well, self._get_cpu_info() is jsut `virsh capabilities`? | |
| 13:59:29 | sean-k-mooney | right now it checks that the each model is valid on its own and then the default mode + the extra flags is valid | |
| 13:59:47 | noonedeadpunk | and `virsh capabilities` falls back to Broadwell | |
| 14:00:02 | noonedeadpunk | because all else have that damn MPX | |
| 14:00:24 | sean-k-mooney | yes again its an abi break by intel effectivly | |
| 14:00:59 | sean-k-mooney | this might be address by the new cpu compare api that we are moving too | |
| 14:01:07 | sean-k-mooney | but if not we can rework that validation | |
| 14:01:17 | sean-k-mooney | the curertn two pahse apprch is not really correct | |
| 14:01:25 | sean-k-mooney | it predates the ablity to remove flags | |
| 14:01:42 | sean-k-mooney | when we added the ability to remove flags this shoudl have been factored into one loop | |
| 14:02:09 | sean-k-mooney | for now yes your only option is to ude broadwall and add the missing flags | |
| 14:04:00 | noonedeadpunk | sean-k-mooney: ok, thanks a lot for help) | |
| 14:04:16 | noonedeadpunk | hopefully it will be better soon ) | |
| 14:04:52 | sean-k-mooney | well the currnt patch has been draging on for 3 cycle it might be betere to just rework this check as a simple backportable bugfix | |
| 14:05:47 | noonedeadpunk | tbh that would be perfect but I can't say I see easy way how to re-work it | |
| 14:07:46 | sean-k-mooney | something like this https://paste.opendev.org/show/b6PI9EzL6ucJUN7FKIBL/ | |
| 14:08:28 | sean-k-mooney | that would allow you to set cpu_model=Icelake cpu_model_extra_flags=-mpx | |
| 14:08:47 | sean-k-mooney | at least i think that would work | |
| 14:09:13 | sean-k-mooney | the important thing is we apply the flag modification to the model before we ask libvirt to see if its compatible | |
| 14:11:24 | sean-k-mooney | that quick refactor woudl loose some granualrity in the error message but i think it would allow better flexiblity | |
| 14:12:36 | sean-k-mooney | we could just print the requested feature and the host features and let it to the reader to do the intersection to get back most of the the previously useful info form the error | |
| 14:13:57 | noonedeadpunk | But I think it won't affect _get_cpu_info result? | |
| 14:14:24 | noonedeadpunk | as libvirt still would provide Broadwell as an aswer to that | |
| 14:14:55 | noonedeadpunk | and we're comparing flags requested vs cpu model provided but virsh capabilities iirc | |
| 14:15:05 | sean-k-mooney | _get_cpu_info i think shoudl provide the host cpu info | |
| 14:18:54 | noonedeadpunk | not really I guess | |
| 14:18:59 | noonedeadpunk | ant least not on Xena | |
| 14:21:03 | noonedeadpunk | sean-k-mooney: I added some logging https://paste.opendev.org/show/b0AFUQdxdydGrXHQHn6o/ | |
| 14:21:52 | noonedeadpunk | so _get_cpu_info for me looks exactly as `virsh capabilities` output | |
| 14:22:28 | sean-k-mooney | yes we use libvirt as our interface to collect host infomation | |
| 14:22:48 | noonedeadpunk | or welll | |
| 14:22:55 | noonedeadpunk | flags are not from broadwell | |
| 14:23:11 | sean-k-mooney | the flags should be the same or simlar to lscpu | |
| 14:23:25 | noonedeadpunk | ok, yes, then your suggestion can make sense | |
| 14:24:11 | sean-k-mooney | the model that is listed is the closet model that matches the cpu if i undersand correctly | |
| 14:25:51 | noonedeadpunk | yeah, I think you're right here | |
| 14:53:27 | ade_lee | dansmith, so what changed to make https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/831844 pass? | |
| 14:53:51 | dansmith | ade_lee: the wait-for-sshable I think | |
| 14:54:14 | ade_lee | ah ok | |
| 14:54:26 | dansmith | there were a number of changes to various tests to make that work, but that seemed to be the problem with the quick boot-attach-detach workflow which was in a number of places | |
| 14:56:01 | ade_lee | dansmith, excellent - we're going to run the cinder and glance fips tests again now to see if they pass | |
| 15:01:59 | dansmith | I was seeing those qemu crashes in cs8, so I'm interested to see if those still pop up in cs9 now that this always-fail stuff is resolved | |
| 15:13:25 | gmann | ade_lee: dansmith device tag test also is now ssh-able so may be that making it pass. | |
| 15:13:43 | gmann | recently ssh-able | |
| 15:36:05 | bauzas | reminder (special for EU folks) : nova meeting in 25 mins here | |
| 15:36:18 | bauzas | we'll have a very short meeting | |

| 16:00:12 | bauzas | hola everybody | |

| 16:00:40 | gibi | o/ | |
| 16:00:56 | bauzas | if someone wants to continue discussing, I can pass the chair baton | |
| 16:01:19 | bauzas | but given next week will be PTG, I don't think we have a lot of things to discuss | |
| 16:01:29 | bauzas | let's start then | |
| 16:01:42 | gmann | ah its already 29. not DST is in sync in EU and USA :) | |

| 16:03:27 | bauzas | #action all please add your topics before Thursday EOB | |
| 16:03:39 | bauzas | as you can see, we don't have a lof of topics | |
| 16:03:52 | bauzas | #action bauzas to provide a mailing thread for asking for topics | |
| 16:04:19 | bauzas | so, please add the topics before end of this week so I can plan the agenda | |
| 16:04:41 | bauzas | and in case we need other teams for cross-project discussions, I could ping the other PTLs | |
| 16:05:00 | bauzas | thanks to the folks who already provided some topics | |
| 16:05:19 | bauzas | remind, hopefully this PTG would be the last virtual \o/ | |
| 16:05:51 | bauzas | any questions about the PTG ? | |
| 16:06:16 | bauzas | as you can see in the etherpad, we'll have the same room, the newton one | |
| 16:06:20 | bauzas | for the whole PTG | |
