10:16:58 sean-k-mooney with a nice gui
10:17:07 bauzas sean-k-mooney: yup, and I saw it
10:17:23 bauzas sean-k-mooney1: but now with F35 and F36, this is stuck to powersave apparently
10:17:38 bauzas I still have the GUI but clicking makes no result
10:17:39 sean-k-mooney have you tried removing tuned
10:17:53 sean-k-mooney its not using tuned to implement this
10:17:56 bauzas and I can't define a plugged/unplugged strategy like before
10:17:58 sean-k-mooney so it could be fighting with it
10:18:19 bauzas I haven't investigated it
10:18:34 sean-k-mooney https://linux.die.net/man/1/gnome-power-manager
10:18:37 bauzas I'm already glad I found the root cause...
10:18:45 sean-k-mooney that is what shoudl be doing it on the gnome side
10:19:11 bauzas but again, how many users are knowing how to collect power metrics with sar ?
10:19:20 bauzas and even knowing what sar is ?
10:19:44 sean-k-mooney well your not going to find me defending fedroa
10:19:51 sean-k-mooney you know i stongly dislike it
10:19:55 bauzas if you want MHO, Fedora is too much opiniated about what people should do
10:20:02 sean-k-mooney just pointing out its probaly tuned that is the issue
10:20:11 bauzas I'll look into it
10:20:17 bauzas thanks
10:21:08 sean-k-mooney i havenet used fedora since f33 or f32 but it did not used to have tuned installed so i wonder whne that got added
10:22:58 kashyap sean-k-mooney: I'm on F36, and I don't have 'tuned' installed by default (mine is a 'Workstation' install)
10:23:34 sean-k-mooney ack
10:23:40 sean-k-mooney i wonder why bauzas has it then
10:23:52 bauzas I haven't said I have tuned
10:24:01 sean-k-mooney oh i tought you did
10:24:19 sean-k-mooney ignore the noise then
10:24:35 bauzas [sbauza@sbauza ~]$ rpm -qa | grep tuned
10:24:35 bauzas [sbauza@sbauza ~]$
10:24:57 bauzas I'll continue on it this afternoon
10:25:06 bauzas looks like an Hack&Hustle session
10:26:31 sean-k-mooney ya maybe
10:26:46 sean-k-mooney let us know if you figure it out either way
10:27:06 bauzas my sar figures are explicit
10:27:13 bauzas my temperature was still fine
10:27:31 bauzas but I was struggling with CPU clock freq at 400Mhz
10:27:44 bauzas and my audio was then choppy as the load was spiking up to 8.0
10:27:54 bauzas (8 CPUs, which is normal)
10:28:21 bauzas when the CPU clock was about 1500MHz, then the audio was better (and the load down to 4.0)
10:28:42 bauzas f**** governor
10:28:53 sean-k-mooney wisely or not im using tlp to manage my power https://paste.opendev.org/show/b01fBUjtb7EA4fQDmvuM/
10:29:22 sean-k-mooney https://linrunner.de/tlp/index.html
10:30:24 bauzas power-profiles-daemon.service loaded active running Power Profiles daemon
10:31:01 sean-k-mooney ya that is one of the things you have to remove if you are using tlp
10:31:25 sean-k-mooney just notifced im actully using schedutil for my govoner
10:31:40 sean-k-mooney if you are not using the intel pstate driver thats actully the better option vs ondemand
10:31:48 bauzas Conflicts=tlp.service shutdown.target auto-cpufreq.service system76-power.service tuned.service
10:31:56 bauzas huhuh
10:32:04 bauzas I'll have to dig into it
10:32:09 bauzas but... lunch
10:32:11 sean-k-mooney yep its one of the ones i tried
10:32:37 sean-k-mooney it didnt work well for me when i use the power-profiles-daemon
10:33:44 sean-k-mooney i think my issue was mainly fan noise and it was not really goign down form max cpu
10:34:15 sean-k-mooney like idling on ac was full non turbo/bost clock speeed

12:01:55 bauzas found the guilty https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Power_Profiles_Daemon
12:02:13 bauzas "The "performance" mode is only available on select systems and is implemented by different "drivers" based on the system or systems it targets. "
12:10:21 bauzas that's maybe me but I thought we were having different power management profiles whether the laptop was docked or not, previously
12:10:32 bauzas (in Gnome, I mean)
12:20:16 bauzas https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Other-Linux-Discussions/Lenovo-L14-Gen1-AMD-Lap-Mode-Throttling/m-p/5154197
12:20:51 bauzas but my surface is steady...
12:25:21 sean-k-mooney bauzas: so ya i would jsut remove that and go with one of the many other tools
12:25:35 bauzas checked, I'm not in lap mode
12:25:52 bauzas but there are a ton of issues with PPD with Thinkpads https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/hadess/power-profiles-daemon/-/issues
12:26:40 bauzas and that's the issue I hit when changing the PPD profile to 'perf' https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/hadess/power-profiles-daemon/-/issues/72
12:28:32 bauzas sean-k-mooney: any power management tool you'd recommend that could set the power based on charging vs. discharging ?
12:28:59 bauzas powersave seems reasonable to me if I'm running on battery
12:29:20 bauzas but I don't want to clockdown if I'm plugged
12:30:58 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova master: Retry attachment delete API call for 504 Gateway Timeout https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/845543
12:33:15 sean-k-mooney bauzas: i use tlp
12:33:33 sean-k-mooney i dont actully use power save on battery but i configure it to limit the max frequency
12:33:55 sean-k-mooney but you can certenly set the profile to power save too if you prefer
12:34:23 sean-k-mooney https://paste.opendev.org/show/bPVClbF8MnuFjrhBE2z3/
12:34:27 sean-k-mooney that is my tlp config
12:34:54 sean-k-mooney bauzas: so you could change line 6 two powersaver
12:35:03 sean-k-mooney or liek i do on line 11
12:35:16 sean-k-mooney limite the cpu frequency
12:36:17 sean-k-mooney bauzas: tlp also has a tlp-stats tool which is kind of nice
12:37:22 sean-k-mooney you can see that i still have 90% capasity on my battery after 4 years
12:37:25 sean-k-mooney https://paste.opendev.org/show/bNtQTQ0T2Tx4Bd2nFyLu/
12:37:37 sean-k-mooney partly becasue i only let it chagne to 80%
12:38:39 sean-k-mooney so i went with tlp since i coudl use it to do more then save power it can also extend battry life by contoling change and i cloud have a little more contol over all
12:39:37 sean-k-mooney https://termbin.com/ic06r is the full set of stats it has
12:39:47 sean-k-mooney and you can twek many of the paramters if you care about it
12:49:55 opendevreview Amit Uniyal proposed openstack/nova master: Adds check, if admin has set compute service down https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/848886
12:49:56 opendevreview Amit Uniyal proposed openstack/nova master: add regression test case for bug 1978983 https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/849104
12:50:58 bauzas ok, eventually fixed my issue, upgraded the firware
12:51:02 gibi sean-k-mooney: I'm wondering that we reintroduced a an issue by reenabling greendns. See my fresh bugreport https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1981080
12:51:15 bauzas when the lid is closed, you can't upgrade your firmware, bizarre but ok
12:51:28 bauzas so this one was PEBKAC
12:51:57 bauzas I'll need to use to change the profile based on the docking info
12:52:04 bauzas need to see*
13:11:00 sean-k-mooney gibi: i was still getting that waring before that
13:11:20 gibi hm, I don't get it if I turn off greendns
13:12:00 sean-k-mooney we coudl perhaps disable greendns in our func tests but i dont think a revert would be correct
13:12:28 sean-k-mooney we shoudl not be doing dns lookup in the func tests
13:13:36 gibi this is not about func test, there it is probably cosmetic. But I wonder if we reintroduced https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1808951
13:13:57 gibi as the fix for that was to blacklist urllib3
13:14:49 gibi now we see that urllib3 is imported before monkey patching
13:14:56 gibi so we might retrigger https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1808951
