#openstack-nova - 2023-05-23
10:30:59 sean-k-mooney WJeffs: it should be possibel to do that in the newer releases of nova
10:31:17 sean-k-mooney if we mreged the patch im thinking of let me check
10:31:59 WJeffs sean-k-mooney: were already on Zed, I'm wondering if its due to the kernel setting "KVM_MAX_VCPU"
10:32:12 WJeffs sean-k-mooney: were already on Zed, I'm wondering if its due to the kernel setting "KVM_MAX_VCPU"
10:33:35 sean-k-mooney WJeffs: if you enable the viommu in the guest https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/zed/implemented/libvirt-viommu-device.html#proposed-change
10:33:51 sean-k-mooney we also enable the eim feature
10:34:39 sean-k-mooney https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#iommu-devices
10:34:48 sean-k-mooney The eim attribute (with possible values on and off) can be used to configure Extended Interrupt Mode. A q35 domain with split I/O APIC (as described in Hypervisor features), and both interrupt remapping and EIM turned on for the IOMMU, will be able to use more than 255 vCPUs. Since 3.4.0 (QEMU/KVM only)
10:35:44 sean-k-mooney WJeffs: im not sure if that is enough to allow more then 255 vcpus or if you also need to have a machine type and kernel that is set up to deal with that
10:36:30 sean-k-mooney WJeffs: buy ya try adding hw:viommu_model=auto to the flavor or hw_viommu_model=auto to the image
10:36:47 sean-k-mooney this is new in zed
10:39:06 sean-k-mooney WJeffs: we havve not tested that by the way we just did not see any harm in enabling it when enabling the viommu so we made the feature as generic as possible
10:45:51 WJeffs Thanks, I will give it a try. No luck yet. I need to check this kernel has the supported part for more than 288 cores too - I'm pushing to get a 6.x kernel to support the new AMDs currently from my kernel team.
10:51:42 sean-k-mooney ack, we dont often have request to supprot that many cores so your kind of forging your own path here.
10:52:28 WJeffs Yea, I'm not surprised, its a pretty extreme case. Sometimes asking here can save me hours of work
10:52:36 sean-k-mooney if you figure out what combination of libvirt features we need to enable im sure we could actully add support for this usecause but i personlaly have not tested over 64 cores
10:53:41 WJeffs I will take a look and report back if its anything major.
10:53:46 WJeffs Cheers for your help
10:53:59 sean-k-mooney WJeffs: hehe i feel the same about random blog posts i find about obsucre virt/hardware features

13:54:45 sahid o/ I initiated a work to get ride of neutronclient and use openstacksdk. I started the work by isolating the work on security_groups.py
13:55:17 sahid before to start adressing allllll the tests :-) I would appreciate to have some eyes on it, at least to ensure that I'm in the good direction
13:57:59 sahid I have made some schance on neutron fixture, but I'm not sure on how to deal with the is_admin point since get_sdk_adapter does not have the context
13:58:12 sahid s/schance/changes
14:01:37 bauzas sahid: I'll try to do it later this week
14:02:07 bauzas sahid: thanks for working hard on it btw.
14:02:31 sahid cool thanks bauzas I think it's going to be long run work anyway, tke for your time
14:02:39 sahid :-)
