14:07:15 bauzas maybe this is just a codium issue
14:07:24 sean-k-mooney ya maybe
14:07:40 bauzas but everytime I need to doublecheck what I commit, that's super cumbersome
14:07:45 sean-k-mooney you did have an issue with codium adding a nobreaking space at one point
14:08:31 bauzas honestly, I need time to investigate what's wrong but I'm rushing into delivering a fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2125935
14:09:15 bauzas so I'll check that later
14:09:26 sean-k-mooney ack

14:42:02 gibi dansmith: this is how unit test for the new product algo will look like https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/962776/5
14:48:25 gibi https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/962776/6/placement/tests/unit/objects/test_allocation_candidate.py
14:48:27 dansmith gibi: okay.. that will require some study as well
14:49:34 gibi no worries. I have plenty of quirks to debug now that the unit test show some strange steps the algo makes
14:56:08 dansmith gibi: so all those "bug duplicate" ones are things it should have filtered?
15:03:47 gibi those are steps in the algo that should not be made. (I guess we have a off by one index error somewhere)
15:04:16 gibi somehow we check the same product 3 times instead of one
15:04:54 gibi I will figure it out why...
15:05:07 gibi don't hang up on that now.
15:05:28 gibi but the test already shows where we skip products so that is what is interesting
15:05:31 gibi for review
15:05:41 opendevreview Julien Le Jeune proposed openstack/nova master: Update start_service() function in test https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/963156
15:08:04 dansmith gibi: yeah, when I first skimmed it I thought you were identifying the things that would be skipped by using yours over the standard product, so just wanted to confirm that it was actually further skipping that needed to happen
15:08:10 dansmith I'm deeper into it now so it's obvious
15:20:25 dansmith gibi: can you respond here: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/962776/comment/05b0ce6d_48710288/ ?
15:20:48 dansmith I'm trying to grok the test first, so maybe I'm being stupid
15:26:42 bauzas dansmith: fwiw, fill_metadata() seems non deterministic when you use a wrong context
15:27:29 bauzas ie. in my reproducer, some host with two instances has one with metadata set while the other not
15:28:05 dansmith bauzas: I dunno why you think that's possible :D
15:28:14 bauzas I know my patch fixes the whole problem but I'm puzzled why I'm still getting metadata only for one (and that could explain why your UT didn't catch the failure)
15:28:22 dansmith bauzas: I think it's more likely that you're using a shared context and it's being mutated in a way that seems like it's changing
15:28:33 bauzas yeah, that's what I thought
15:29:01 bauzas I'm passing the same context object for both instances so this probably was mutate
15:29:04 bauzas mutated
15:29:45 dansmith the instances are from the same cell right?

15:31:29 opendevreview Julien Le Jeune proposed openstack/nova master: Update start_service() function in test https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/963156
15:33:03 gibi dansmith: responded
15:33:35 gibi the mock is on the consolidate call not on the exceeds_capacity call
15:34:07 gibi so we assert whant product or partial products are generated and tested by the algo, not what is eventually returned by the product algo. I can add the later to the test as well
15:34:31 gibi s/later/latter/
15:35:33 dansmith oh, right, so for that 1,2,1 case we would have seen a result of "nope not valid" from _consolidate and thus we would not have yielded it, right?
15:37:18 gibi yepp
15:37:57 gibi and we would also notice that 1,2,1 is an invalid prefix, so if there would be more groups, we would not test any of 1,2,1,x partial products
15:38:18 gibi as x can be any value the product would be invalid
15:38:20 dansmith yeah, sorry seems obvious now :P
15:39:24 dansmith okay so the solution is starting to come into view now.. the odometer is supposed to roll past a bunch of product "solutions" at the first index that isn't viable
15:39:33 gibi yepp
15:39:55 gibi (odometer or I learned during the weekend that it is called a mixed radix number in english that the odometer represents)
15:40:06 dansmith this is why I wanted to see a unit test to understand what the desired behavior was instead of trying to synthesize it in my head :)
15:41:02 gibi totally valid request to have unit tests
15:41:55 dansmith oh I know, I just mean.. I thought it would be easier to review the code with unit tests to show the behavior
15:42:18 dansmith that's not always the case, but here.. this is some complex stuff to reason about (until you get the idea in your head)

06:59:15 jlejeune1 gibi: hello, what do you think about: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/963156 ? first requirement to fix bug 2085135
08:19:16 sthoffmann[m] Hi, I wrote a RFE for how to wait for ovn-controller at live-migration https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/2069718. I included some feedback to the POC changes I created for that. Can you approve from nova side, that the RFE/blueprint is ok?

11:51:07 priteau Hi Nova team! I have a trivial doc fix that has been open for a while: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/955566
12:00:27 gibi priteau: thanks. fast approved it
12:03:58 priteau thanks!

I'm abandoning the 3rd patch https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/963053 as it does not significantly help
12:39:38 gibi I will add a 3rd patch on top with a reno
12:58:40 opendevreview Kamil Sambor proposed openstack/nova master: [hacking] Improve N373 to catch also other primitives https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/958408
13:01:01 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/placement master: Release notes for bug/2126751 https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/963275
13:02:01 sean-k-mooney gibi: ack i see you chosse not to factor out the logic into a helper. that is fine we can mark that restolved. i think the fact that you are not just purly inline and are integrating it into the algorthim while graduclaly buildign the candiates is called out enough in the commit
13:02:23 sean-k-mooney ill try and make some time later to treview them
13:02:55 sean-k-mooney gibi: nit: wyou have whitespace issues in teh relese note patch
13:03:54 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: DNM: test with placement fix https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/963035
13:03:55 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: DNM:Test with optimize_for_wide_provider_trees https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/963036
13:11:36 gibi sean-k-mooney: ack I will fix them
13:16:14 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: [doc]PCI in Placement tuning https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/963281
13:52:34 dansmith gibi: what was the fix for not generating the extra duplicate matches?
13:54:15 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Placement child resource provider usage in allocation-candidates https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/938070
13:55:27 dansmith oh was it the deepcopy in the test itself maybe?
13:55:31 opendevreview Balazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Placement child resource provider usage in allocation-candidates https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/938070
13:56:08 gibi dansmith: I needed to copy the call args in the test as they are lists that are mutated between calls and the mock only stores the reference to the list
13:56:45 dansmith ack, so the code was doing the right thing, the test was just wrong.. I was hoping there was more optimization coming from the fix for that :)
13:56:53 gibi me too
13:56:53 gibi :)
13:58:01 gibi sean-k-mooney: dansmith: as you see the links above I pushed a nova doc change to link to the placement optimizations in the PCI in Placement doc. And I updated our backlog spec about the general allocation candidated explosioin problem with the new learning about the invalid candidates
13:58:22 dansmith ++
14:01:36 dansmith gibi: some comments and a couple questions on the latest rev
14:01:57 gibi OK. I will check
14:01:59 gibi thanks
