#openstack-nova - 2026-03-20
13:20:40 Uggla sean-k-mooney, yes I will write a release as discussed yesterday.
13:21:20 Uggla sean-k-mooney I'll keep you posted when it is done.
13:21:49 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Fix error when multiple security group in a project with same name https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337
13:22:45 Uggla sean-k-mooney I have just pushed an update of https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337. Tell me if I understand well what you wanted to achieve.
13:31:24 sean-k-mooney ack ill take a look after im off a call
13:31:54 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Fix NUMA cell sorting for non-PCI VMs with pack strategy https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/978954
13:36:51 Uggla sean-k-mooney release notes added in ^
13:53:52 sean-k-mooney +2 on the sorting series ill re review https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337/4 in a little more detail
13:54:31 sean-k-mooney i think you made the changes i asked for but it woudl also be nice to have a very short release note for the security group bug too
13:55:42 sean-k-mooney nova.tests.unit.api.openstack.compute.test_schemas.SchemaTest.test_schemas
13:56:05 sean-k-mooney seems to be hitting the per test timeout on slower nodes in the coverage job
13:56:20 sean-k-mooney i wonder if we shoudl tweak that in the tox.ini
13:59:28 Uggla sean-k-mooney ok for the release note. "seems to be hitting the per test timeout on slower nodes in the coverage job" how do you see that ?
14:13:44 sean-k-mooney i looked at the coverage job on the repoducer
14:14:05 sean-k-mooney the schema validation test timed out but i have seen that on one or two other patches i think
14:14:13 sean-k-mooney so https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/b2e50d5600ce479ca7287a2ebae35e79
14:14:41 sean-k-mooney File "/home/zuul/src/opendev.org/openstack/nova/.tox/cover/lib/python3.12/site-packages/fixtures/_fixtures/timeout.py", line 57, in signal_handler
14:14:43 sean-k-mooney raise TimeoutException()
14:14:45 sean-k-mooney fixtures._fixtures.timeout.TimeoutException
14:15:09 sean-k-mooney that isnet a job timeout its a test timeout all the other test pass and it passed in the non coverage jobs
14:15:31 sean-k-mooney the corevate profileing slows thigns down a bit so i think on a slow node it just take longer then the defautl test timeout
14:16:24 sean-k-mooney im not 100% sure that is the cause as i have not looked at it in detail
14:16:35 sean-k-mooney Uggla: its unrelated to your change
14:17:00 sean-k-mooney i just wanted to mention it before recheckign incase we are sing this in ohter patches as it could become a semi gate blocker if that is unstable
14:18:10 Uggla sean-k-mooney, oh ok. I guess we can keep an eye on it, and discuss in next upstream meeting.
14:20:27 obre Is there any chance that this bugfix gets merged before the G-release? https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/916409 (A bug making rebuild of a BFV-instance impossible)
14:21:44 sean-k-mooney obre: unless the bug was intoduced in this cycle no
14:22:02 sean-k-mooney we are past rc1 so rc2+ only incldue bugs that were intoduced in this release
14:22:17 sean-k-mooney that does not mean it cant be backproted and release reight after
14:25:39 Uggla obre I have included it in the bug review list
14:26:47 opendevreview ribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Fix error when multiple security group in a project with same name https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/970337
14:27:22 sean-k-mooney obre: its in merge conflict and the orginal autor is not working on it
14:27:38 sean-k-mooney so someone will have to fix that again i might get to it next week
14:28:03 sean-k-mooney but it need review form peopel other then me to prgoress
14:28:37 sean-k-mooney if i find time ill push an update later today
14:28:50 Uggla sean-k-mooney, what is your opinion on that one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2145010 to me it is more a feature request than bug. Do you share the same feeling ?
14:29:29 sean-k-mooney so the are raising a commont issue
14:29:46 sean-k-mooney they are correct that day 1 it shoudl have used both
14:29:49 sean-k-mooney os_distro="debian"
14:29:51 sean-k-mooney os_version="13"
14:30:07 sean-k-mooney but the spec defied that os_distro="debian13" woudl be required
14:30:14 sean-k-mooney i.e that only os_distro woudl be used
14:30:23 sean-k-mooney even though os_version exsited
14:30:32 sean-k-mooney so that is a breakign api change in my view
14:30:45 sean-k-mooney as it will chenat the behvior for exsitng images
14:31:18 sean-k-mooney so i woudl close it as invalid but im biased again that feature as i personlly want to remove the libosinfo functionality entrily
14:31:26 sean-k-mooney i belive it was a mistake to ever include it
14:31:53 sean-k-mooney becuase it does nto provdie stable bevhor across version as they assuem the domian will not be deleted and recreated and rely on that for stablity
14:32:24 sean-k-mooney nova deletes and recreates the domain all the time so if you sue the libosinfo fucntionaltiy you can get unexpected bhavior in nova when you do a package update
14:33:28 sean-k-mooney i partly mitigated that in the past i think but it still makes me uneasey so i woudl mark this opion and whishlist
14:33:56 sean-k-mooney i dont think it woudl be safe to turn this on by defautl (looking at both disto and version) without a flag to opt in
14:34:34 sean-k-mooney they are totally right to expect it to look at both its just not how it was implmeented unfortunetly
14:35:01 sean-k-mooney https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/liberty/approved/libvirt-hardware-policy-from-libosinfo.html
14:35:39 sean-k-mooney the spec actully say it use –property os_name=fedora21 but i woudl have to double check that
14:37:17 sean-k-mooney ya its usign os_name today https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/osinfo.py#L93
14:37:31 sean-k-mooney oh no os_disto https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/osinfo.py#L136
14:37:54 Uggla sean-k-mooney, that's fine I answered with "invalid" because based on what you have said above, clearly it is a behavior change so more a BP than a bug.
14:37:54 sean-k-mooney os_name is the vairable name
14:38:11 sean-k-mooney yep that fair
14:38:28 sean-k-mooney i think fi we ant to do the se need a new image proeprty to enabel using this functionlty
14:38:35 sean-k-mooney we coudl perhaps eventually change the defualt of that
14:39:00 sean-k-mooney but as a new feature it woudl have to be opt in i think for a release or two before we consider if it can be the default
14:39:48 sean-k-mooney by the way currently when you use this feature we only use it for 2 things
14:40:05 sean-k-mooney the hw_vif_model and hw_disk_bus defaults
14:40:42 sean-k-mooney if we were to use libosinfo there are many other thing it could express an opion on but we have moved toward usign libvirts defaults instead
14:40:49 sean-k-mooney our our own in code
14:41:24 sean-k-mooney we are not tellign libosinfo about the machine type we are suign for example or the architecure
14:41:44 sean-k-mooney so today it can provide sub optimal or invalide recomendation in some cases
14:42:20 sean-k-mooney the feature was never really updated after it was initally created so its somethign i discuage peopel from using
14:43:54 sean-k-mooney the last change was https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/6be668e51992df53a4d871bea70bc738a9beacb8 to workaround a breakign change in libosinfo so i just see this as tech debt today
15:01:15 bauzas sean-k-mooney: do you have time for a question about https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/979999 ?
15:03:22 bauzas sean-k-mooney: tl;dr wasn't able to find any difference between the code and the fixtures, so I can't see any leak
15:14:58 sean-k-mooney bauzas: ack im not sure where the change in behvior is either. but i kown we were not ablt to propperly repoduce it in https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/914712 when we tried. we coudl only repoduce it in devstack
15:15:38 bauzas sean-k-mooney: I looked that we were providing the limits in the Selection object
15:15:47 bauzas that's why it works
15:16:08 sean-k-mooney right but i dont thnk we have that on the compute node right
15:16:34 sean-k-mooney only in the schduler so i asuem it was drop in the rpc?
15:18:01 sean-k-mooney bauzas: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/compute/manager.py#L2505
15:18:20 sean-k-mooney build_and_run_instance accpate the limits object but im not sure if we pass it
15:18:25 sean-k-mooney and what it contains
15:18:26 bauzas we pass the limits
15:18:30 bauzas by it
15:19:02 bauzas of course, if we no longer have alternates, then we call back to the conductor and then we miss the limits
15:19:22 bauzas also, limits are not persisted so when you resize, you don't look at the network metadata
15:19:39 sean-k-mooney well yes because they can change on resize
15:20:00 bauzas so yeah, we should get the network metadata by the claim, but as I said, I can't reproduce the issue
15:20:01 sean-k-mooney they shoudl not be persited they shoudl be calcuatled on each create/resize/rebuild
15:20:05 bauzas correct
15:22:49 sean-k-mooney i can see if i can make some time to try and look into it next week im currently tryitn to wrap up some cybrog stuff for rc2 so i proably cant dig into it indetail today
15:23:13 sean-k-mooney bauzas: are you currently blocked or do you have enfor info to try workign on the fix?
15:23:39 bauzas I'll work on the fix
15:25:48 sean-k-mooney ack my best advice right now is try adding some LOG.debug statement like artom did https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/914712
15:25:58 sean-k-mooney or even take over that patch
15:26:29 sean-k-mooney and see if you can repoduce in devstack
15:26:48 sean-k-mooney we can hopefully use that info to fix the funtional tests or repoduce in a unit test later
