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
13:15:08 sean-k-mooney well we now use eventliet directly in the nova-api
13:15:25 sean-k-mooney for scater gather so we cant skip monky patching in general there anymore
13:16:03 gibi I don't follow you how that is related
13:16:21 sean-k-mooney we know that disabling greendns can lead to the nova-api and other serivce had locking up on dns quieres
13:16:33 sean-k-mooney so if we revert the other patch we woudl break things
13:17:06 gibi OK, so if we disable greendns we break thing, but now that we enabled it we might break other things
13:17:29 sean-k-mooney we might but i dont think we will
13:17:58 sean-k-mooney have you found a code path where urllib3 is imported before monkeypatching?
13:18:10 gibi yes, it is the dns code in eventlet that imports it
13:18:41 sean-k-mooney so https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/90c0c687a487601e009c72f60c88be92f6a55264/nova/monkey_patch.py#L30=
13:18:47 sean-k-mooney imports urllib3?
13:18:54 gibi indireclt yes
13:19:00 gibi indirectly
13:19:06 sean-k-mooney that sounds like an eventlet bug that we canot fix then
13:19:22 sean-k-mooney since we cant monkeypatch until after we import eventlet
13:20:27 sean-k-mooney so ya maybe we need to remove urllib3 form the problem list if eventlet have fixed the issue
13:20:34 sean-k-mooney if not then we shoudl file an eventlet bug
13:20:50 sean-k-mooney unless from nova import debugger
13:20:56 sean-k-mooney is pulling it in instead fo eventlet
13:21:20 sean-k-mooney not that i can see
13:21:24 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/90c0c687a487601e009c72f60c88be92f6a55264/nova/debugger.py
13:25:34 gibi hm I assuming that deployers had some workaround for our disable greendns as we had that disable for a long time
13:27:05 gibi so we might fixed a known and worked around problem with but re-introduced a break somewhere else. Still I feel like reverting the greendns patch would be safer while we figure out is urllib3 is safe
13:29:21 gibi anyhow updated the bug report linking to this discussion as I have now bandwidth to dig deeper into this now
13:32:09 Uggla gibi, sorry for that.... Uggla is a black cat that attract bug.
13:33:15 gibi Uggla: no worries. I like these kind of challenges :)
14:13:38 sean-k-mooney gibi: it was breaking our downstream customers
14:13:51 sean-k-mooney so we cant assume that
14:14:10 sean-k-mooney gibi: when i did the revert an renebaled greendns
14:14:28 sean-k-mooney i noted you could sitll diablie it by setting the env var
14:14:57 sean-k-mooney gibi: we were hardcodeing os.environ['EVENTLET_NO_GREENDNS'] = 'yes'
14:14:59 sean-k-mooney before
14:15:12 sean-k-mooney but you can just export that before you run nova-api
14:15:21 sean-k-mooney or set it in the wsgi env if you need too
14:15:25 sean-k-mooney but i dont think you should
14:18:59 gibi sean-k-mooney: so if somebody get hit by https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1808951 then they can set EVENTLET_NO_GREENDNS=yes in there api service script to get back the old behavior
14:19:14 gibi good point. I agree that is a viable workaround
14:19:20 gibi I will not that in https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1808951
14:19:36 sean-k-mooney i just did in https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1981080/comments/2
14:20:06 sean-k-mooney but yes you could not that in the orginal bug
14:20:39 sean-k-mooney gibi: do you happen to know what the orginal urllib3 bug is and if it was fixed
14:20:51 sean-k-mooney i have read over https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1808951
14:21:08 sean-k-mooney and that references https://github.com/eventlet/eventlet/issues/371
14:21:35 opendevreview Sergii Golovatiuk proposed openstack/nova master: Replace "db archive" with "db archive_deleted_raws" https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/847963
14:21:42 sean-k-mooney that seams to have been fiex and broken
14:21:49 sean-k-mooney based on differnt python releases
14:22:23 gibi I think it is https://github.com/eventlet/eventlet/issues/371 as you noted
14:22:45 gibi at least https://github.com/eventlet/eventlet/issues/371#issuecomment-1047336652 reports that it still exists
14:22:52 sean-k-mooney https://github.com/eventlet/eventlet/issues/726
