#openstack-nova - 2022-04-26
16:44:23 gibi the pci_devices table contains available PF and unavailable children VF rows
16:44:39 gibi this basically an impossible situation
16:44:54 gibi the VF should be available if the PF is available
16:45:04 gibi or the VF should be allocated
16:45:12 gibi anyhow
16:45:26 gibi I propsed a fix https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/838555
16:45:40 gibi it removes some of the strictness of the state check during the PCI claim
16:45:56 gibi basically allows allocating the available PF if the children VFs are unavailable
16:46:06 gibi this would heal the inconsistent DB state
16:46:13 gibi artom had a good point in the review
16:46:32 gibi that we tend to handle DB healing via nova-manage CLI instead
16:46:45 bauzas not true
16:46:59 sean-k-mooney we heal some things on object load form the db
16:47:02 bauzas we had db healing made thru data migrations
16:47:51 artom Right, but those fixes are from "we had thing X a long time ago, and it might still be in the DB, so now when we load it we convert to thing X"
16:47:59 sean-k-mooney we do have the heal allcoation type commands but i think healing this on agent start is the right thing
16:48:01 bauzas we only heal things thru the CLI if this is for example something due to some relationship between two DBs
16:48:08 artom vs examples like placement-audit and Lee's connection_info update
16:48:09 sean-k-mooney as we are also fixing the in memroy representation
16:48:18 bauzas sean-k-mooney: correct, because two DBs were involved
16:48:52 artom My other point was - the DB somehow got into an inconsistent state, wouldn't it be wiser to at least let the operator know, vs siltently fixing it?
16:48:58 bauzas in the case of placement audit, this was about reconciling two datastores kept from two different projects
16:49:05 sean-k-mooney artom: i dont think so
16:49:17 bauzas I agree with sean-k-mooney
16:49:25 bauzas we could log such thing
16:49:32 sean-k-mooney artom: i think this happened beacue of how the custoemr recreated the compute node after the hdd died
16:49:32 bauzas but no need to claim it loud
16:49:34 artom OK :) Not a hill I want to die on, but wanted to at least raise the question
16:49:35 gibi I've added a WARNING log in the patch
16:49:52 sean-k-mooney i dont think this is something that most operators would hit
16:49:52 artom Seems like I'm outnumbered :)
16:50:12 bauzas artom: I won't ask you how many divisions you have
16:50:19 gibi sean-k-mooney: one more thing, you said it should be fixed at agent restart. Now my patch fixes it during PCI claim
16:50:31 artom bauzas, divisions o_O?
16:50:51 bauzas gibi: I like the pci claim approach
16:51:05 sean-k-mooney i have not reviewd the third patch yet
16:51:08 gibi sean-k-mooney: and I have a separate patch for the agent restart + remove VF + inconsistent state case
16:51:24 gibi sean-k-mooney: ahh, OK, let me know you opininon once you reviewed it
16:51:27 bauzas artom: sorry, I'll DM you the reference :)
16:51:40 sean-k-mooney ack we can proceed on the gerrit review
16:51:47 artom It's going to be an obscure French thing, isn't it :P
16:52:28 gibi artom, sean-k-mooney, bauzas: thanks, we can move on
16:52:37 bauzas ++
16:52:56 bauzas sounds we got a consensus : review gibi's patch
16:52:56 gibi I will comment on the patch linking to the meeting logs
16:53:28 bauzas #agreed let's continue to review gibi's work with pci claims fixing the inconstitency
16:53:45 bauzas that's all we had for the meeting
16:53:55 bauzas any last minute item people wanna raise ?
16:54:32 bauzas looks not,
16:54:37 gibi -
16:54:37 bauzas thanks all !
16:54:39 gibi thanks!

16:54:48 elodilles thanks o/
16:54:59 gibi bauzas: I hope you did not forget to leave around 18:30 :)
16:55:38 bauzas gibi: well, I chose to stay :)
16:55:45 artom He replaced himself with a very small shellscript
16:55:56 bauzas Sophie will stare at me when I go off the office room
16:56:00 artom Turns out we was getting bash'ed this whole time
16:56:09 gibi artom: lol
16:56:17 bauzas artom: I wish I could
16:57:11 bauzas artom: but I've been told any IA bot turns crazy after you let people discussing with it
16:58:02 gibi it is our, humans, fault to make AI bots crazy
16:58:23 artom So we're to AIs what demons are to us, The Corruptors?
16:58:38 sean-k-mooney lol
16:58:41 sean-k-mooney but yes
16:58:42 gibi at least the naming sounds badass
16:59:20 artom "I'm a Corruptor" "What does that mean?" "Oh I make chatbots says rude words and stuff"
17:02:14 bauzas or I could sleep on the couch
20:36:45 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova master: Move centos stream testing to centos-9-stream https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/839275
21:15:49 melwitt bauzas: could you also add https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/821348 to your stable review list please? the -2 from zuul is bc I accidentally voted on it earlier
#openstack-nova - 2022-04-27
03:13:16 mnaser sean-k-mooney, bauzas: ricolin on our side will help drive this and i'll also be helping in shaping it from our side. we don't have a whole *lot* of background knowledge about it but we can do a bunch of testing about the vIOMMU stuff
03:38:14 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova stable/yoga: Fix eventlet.tpool import https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/836788
05:03:24 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova stable/ussuri: Fix the vGPU dynamic options race https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/831524
07:14:07 gibi good morning
07:16:51 bauzas gibi: morning
07:16:59 bauzas mnaser: ack, very much appreciated
07:26:30 bauzas elodilles: I made my homework I promised
07:26:41 bauzas melwitt: sent to the gate
08:12:00 elodilles bauzas: cool, thanks \o/
09:25:46 opendevreview Andrew Bonney proposed openstack/nova master: Fix segment-aware scheduling permissions error https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/839361
10:00:03 opendevreview Rajat Dhasmana proposed openstack/nova master: Add support for volume backed server rebuild https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/820368
10:00:03 opendevreview Rajat Dhasmana proposed openstack/nova master: Add conductor RPC interface for rebuild https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/831219
10:00:04 opendevreview Rajat Dhasmana proposed openstack/nova master: Add API support for rebuilding BFV instances https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/830883
10:21:47 ricolin bauzas: for vIOMMU, I will work on BP asap for further discussion. Also I'm not that familar with nova future develop, are these also require to raise a meeting topic, or BP is enough for first step
10:33:41 sean-k-mooney ricolin: you should ideally draft a spec
10:33:49 sean-k-mooney rather then just a blueprint
10:39:15 ricolin sean-k-mooney: agree
10:43:49 sean-k-mooney are you familar enough with that process https://github.com/openstack/nova-specs/blob/master/specs/zed-template.rst
10:44:06 sean-k-mooney the poc patch is a good start
10:44:20 sean-k-mooney and i left most of my feed back in that patch already from a design point of view
10:45:06 sean-k-mooney so for the spec really waht i am looking for is to defien the scope of the chagne, the interfac (extra_specs and image proerties) and the usecasses we want to adress.
10:45:44 sean-k-mooney there is also a schduling question e.g. can we rely based on min libvirt version on all host suport this or do we need a compute capablity trait and prefileter for schduling
10:46:05 sean-k-mooney i havent checked thet min version to determin that
10:47:03 sean-k-mooney the vIOMMU has been aroudn a while so i think our min version support it but the adress space option is newer so not sure about that part
11:27:19 gibi bauzas: you probably interested in https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/839361 as it fixes a bug in the routed net pre-filter
