16:12:02 dansmith I've been rechecking something for a while and can't make it past
16:12:23 dansmith 13 rechecks so far :/
16:12:46 dansmith this is my last day of the year, unfortunately, so I'm hoping someone else can take up the charge of trying to track down and improve things
16:13:25 bauzas yeah I've seen some rechecks
16:13:41 bauzas I'll see if I have time... after all those mdev thingies unfortunately :(
16:14:53 bauzas anyway, I don't think we can discuss anything now
16:16:33 bauzas shall we move on ?

16:24:40 bauzas #topic Review priorities
16:24:45 bauzas #link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-caracal-status
16:24:50 bauzas we have a review demand
16:25:10 bauzas #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1869804 and https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/877773
16:25:43 bauzas I've seen sean-k-mooney already reviewing it so I'm fine with moving it to the 'accepted bugfixes' section
16:27:16 bauzas anyway
16:27:19 bauzas moving on
16:27:40 bauzas #topic Stable Branches
16:27:45 bauzas elodilles: go for it
16:27:46 sean-k-mooney yes its a non trivial fix but im reviewing it
16:27:57 elodilles #info stable gates don't seem blocked
16:28:07 elodilles #info stable release patches still open for review: https://review.opendev.org/q/project:openstack/releases+is:open+intopic:nova
16:28:18 elodilles +1: yoga is going to be unmaintained, so final stable/yoga release should happen ASAP - https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-stable-yoga-eom
16:28:27 elodilles actually, i've updated the release patches ^^^
16:28:46 elodilles to contain the recently merged stable backports
16:29:00 elodilles and i suggest to not to wait anymore
16:29:13 elodilles the patches were proposed 1 month ago :(
16:29:23 elodilles and we can release *anytime*
16:29:42 elodilles (except yoga of course, as that release is the final one)
16:30:10 elodilles so release liaisons or PTL pls review o:)
16:30:49 elodilles and the usual, last item:
16:30:49 elodilles #info stable branch status / gate failures tracking etherpad: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-stable-branch-ci
16:30:58 elodilles that's all from me
16:31:27 bauzas ++
16:31:41 bauzas and yeah I've seen the releases patches
16:32:15 bauzas fwiw, I'm ok with releasing 2023.1 and 2023.2 since both have the fixes I want
16:32:25 elodilles \o/
16:32:25 bauzas Zed is still missing the RPC backports
16:32:37 bauzas I'll try to look at them tomorrow
16:32:44 bauzas elodilles: ping me again tomorrow
16:33:11 elodilles bauzas: ack, thanks in advance!
16:36:09 bauzas ok, next is a new topic
16:36:11 bauzas #topic vmwareapi 3rd-party CI efforts Highlights
16:36:31 fwiesel Shall I?
16:36:49 bauzas fwiesel: shoot :)
16:36:53 fwiesel #Info Gerrit Event Stream connected to our CI (Argo) with personal user
16:37:27 fwiesel So, nothing spectacular. Events go in, they could trigger whatever we want to run later. That part is the more tricky one, and peope are working on it.
16:38:07 fwiesel The most complicated part is the networking, we try to cut it down as much as possible so we test only nova.
16:38:48 fwiesel #Info CI user needs a name. According to naming convention: SAP vmwareapi CI. Has risk of confusion, as SAP is not a vendor of the technology. Our preference simply "SAP CI" or "SAP tempest CI".
16:39:34 fwiesel So, the naming convention on the 3rd party CI suggests "Company Technology CI"
16:39:37 bauzas fwiesel: I'd prefer 'vmwareapi CI run by SAP'
16:40:02 bauzas something telling users what exactly has been run
16:40:24 gibi +1 on keep mentioning vmwareapi in the name
16:40:26 fwiesel That would work. But if we run another CI, say for cinder, then we end up with the same thing as the VMware nsxt CI running cinder
16:40:27 bauzas or yeah, "SAP vmwareapi CI"
16:41:01 bauzas honestly, I don't wanna bikeshed
16:41:17 bauzas I understand that you'd appreciate the SAP name in the CI job name
16:41:27 fwiesel Okay then we go with your proposal "vmwareapi CI run by SAP"
16:41:34 bauzas but I also want my users to know that it's testing with vmwareapi virt driver
16:41:47 bauzas so, please keep both names
16:41:54 fwiesel Fine by me.
16:41:57 bauzas I'm French and I'm bad at namings :)
16:42:17 bauzas but my gut is saying "any words with both SAP and vmwareapi are fine by me"
16:42:51 fwiesel Then we agree on "vmwareapi CI run by SAP"?
16:43:58 fwiesel #agreed The CI user will be named "vmwareapi CI run by SAP"
16:44:11 fwiesel That's from my side. Any questions?
16:45:21 fwiesel Well, then I think we are through.
16:46:23 bauzas ++
16:46:38 bauzas thanks fwiesel for the report
16:46:40 bauzas :)
16:46:53 bauzas greatly appreciated
16:46:59 fwiesel You're welcome
16:47:00 bauzas last topic then
16:47:03 bauzas #topic Open discussion
16:47:12 bauzas the agenda is empty
16:47:19 bauzas anything anyone ?
16:48:10 sean-k-mooney nope
16:48:12 bauzas cool
16:48:20 bauzas thanks all, giving you back 12 mins

16:50:15 fwiesel thanks a lot \o
19:41:08 melwitt dansmith: I have noticed (anecdotally) that a large portion of gate failures have been due to guest kernel panics. I have spent some time looking at them and see for example "pci 0000:00:03.6: BAR 13: failed to assign [io size 0x1000]" and "pci 0000:00:03.6: BAR 13: no space for [io size 0x1000]" I'm not sure how to tell which thing caused the panic. and in my search for more info online I haven't found anything other than mention of
19:41:08 melwitt old kernel bugs or people saying to run fsck and try again. not sure how to approach this, so if you have any thoughts, it would probably help
