#openstack-nova - 2026-03-30
16:09:22 gibi for api, metadata and scheduler F=eventlet G=native
16:10:10 Uggla ah yes it is a bit more complex, but perfectly cleat now. So I should not say something wrong in the highlights.
16:10:11 gibi https://docs.openstack.org/nova/latest/admin/concurrency.html
16:10:19 gibi if you ever in doubt ^^
16:10:26 Uggla 👍
16:10:36 Uggla anything else about gate ?
16:10:41 gibi -
16:10:59 Uggla So moving on to the next topic
16:11:10 Uggla #topic Release Planning
16:11:23 Uggla #link https://releases.openstack.org/gazpacho/schedule.html
16:11:29 Uggla #info Nova deadlines are set in the above schedule
16:11:35 Uggla #info PTG etherpad for 2026.2 is available: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-2026.2-ptg
16:11:42 Uggla #info This is a "work in progress document", but you can enter you topics at the bottom of the document
16:12:00 Uggla #info Gazpacho should release this week.
16:12:12 Uggla #info we will discuss Hibiscus release planning at the PTG.
16:12:26 Uggla #info Gazpacho Openstack Infra live this week, Thursday 2nd april 14:00 UTC
16:12:27 gibi there is a tentative plan at https://releases.openstack.org/hibiscus/schedule.html
16:13:16 Uggla yeah gibi is right, there is a "draft" plan that we will adjust at the PTG.
16:13:43 Uggla #topic Review priorities
16:13:51 Uggla #link New file for Hibiscus https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-2026.2-status
16:14:01 Uggla #info I have updated Launchpad and the above doc. Please ping me if you spot something missing.
16:14:11 Uggla #info Starting: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-2026.2-status#L16 interesting bugs to review.
16:14:49 Uggla I have reviewed topic:"bp/generalize-sev-code", gibi any chance you review it again ?
16:15:24 gibi Uggla: on my list among other things
16:15:51 Uggla gibi ok no pb
16:16:12 Uggla tkajinam, thanks for your answer on the ML for AMD-SNP.
16:16:43 tkajinam Uggla, np
16:17:30 Uggla Do you think you can have a draft spec to discuss at PTG ? And then give the hand for refinement and implementation to someone else ?
16:17:50 tkajinam yeah I can
16:17:59 tkajinam I also had a chat with some folks from LY regarding sev-snp and they told me that they already created their own implementation.
16:18:29 tkajinam I guess they are also preparing spec in their side. I'll check it with them in case they are ready to submit their version
16:18:41 Uggla super cool, thanks. And interesting to know that people for LY corp already have something.
16:18:56 Uggla Any chance to have a joined spec ?
16:18:59 tkajinam masahito, just fyi ^^^
16:19:07 tkajinam yeah I think that's better
16:20:33 gibi just to my limited brain capacity, so this means tkajinam will help with the spec (joint or not) but we need somebody who takes over and implements it
16:20:41 gibi is it a correct understanding?
16:20:53 Uggla gibi, yes
16:20:56 gibi OK
16:21:25 Uggla Anton will work on the TDX implementation though.
16:22:25 gibi I feel that even with the refactoring we have a chance that the TDX and the SNP work will merge conflict, do we have some mitigation planned, or we just use the first come first server rule?
16:22:47 Uggla Noob question regarding HW, what is supporting AMD-SNP ? Special AMD CPUs ?
16:22:57 sean-k-mooney on the topic of the PTG we likely need to schdule a cyborg cross project session but i have not formulated a specific adgenda yet.
16:23:04 tkajinam Technically I can provide a draft code but I may not have enough time to set up test environment for it. (due to my focus shifting away from these confidential computing things atm)
16:23:15 sean-k-mooney Uggla: not specificly specil but ranter a specific genreation
16:23:16 tkajinam Uggla, yeah you need specific generation of EPYC processor which supports SEV-SNP
16:23:34 sean-k-mooney as in i think you need 3rd generation EPYC or later
16:23:41 tkajinam and relatively new kernel + qemu + libvirt, which actually supports host features to use SEV-SNP
16:23:42 tkajinam yeah
16:24:15 sean-k-mooney i woudl need to check but i think we have access interenaly to at least 1 AMD host that supprot SNP
16:24:16 Uggla ok gonna check what is required in term of HW, to know if we have host supporting it.
16:25:06 tkajinam gibi, I agree these two can cause conflict but I guess the conflict can be easily resolved because we don't expect object change.
16:25:13 Uggla gibi, regarding the merge conflic, I expect a lot from the refactoring to limit them.
16:25:23 gibi OK
16:25:41 Uggla but we will see.
16:26:33 Uggla I think we are done with that topic.
16:27:25 Uggla And yes sean-k-mooney, we can work together to have a cross session with cyborg.
16:28:11 Uggla FYI, I will be on PTO next week, but back 1 week before PTG to prepare it.
16:28:37 Uggla ok moving on to next topic
16:28:45 Uggla #topic Stable Branches
16:28:59 elodilles thx
16:29:11 elodilles actually the situation is the same as last week
16:29:17 elodilles #info nova stable gates should be OK
16:29:23 elodilles #info placement and osc-placement have blocked stable gates, fixes need stable cores review (see: https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:pin-setuptools-81-docs and https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:pin-setuptools-81-via-virtualenv-pkg-resources )
16:29:38 elodilles i'd appreciate stable core reviews on these ^^^
16:29:46 elodilles #info stable branch status / gate failures tracking etherpad: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-stable-branch-ci
16:29:58 elodilles details are here ^^^
16:30:08 elodilles and that's all from me
16:30:45 Uggla thx elodilles maybe I will have a look but can't +2.
16:31:35 Uggla #topic vmwareapi 3rd-party CI efforts Highlights
16:31:45 Uggla fwiesel, something from your side ?
16:31:48 sean-k-mooney if we are ok wiht proxying elod i can +2w later if nowone else review but im reviing them now
16:32:01 Uggla sean-k-mooney thx
16:32:08 elodilles sean-k-mooney Uggla : thanks both of you o/
16:32:19 fwiesel Hi, I am digging into the issues with the hanging image upload.
16:32:33 fwiesel I hope, I have a solution: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/oslo.vmware/+/982614 But I want to verify it first.
16:32:40 gibi fwiesel: thanks
16:33:00 gibi I will keep an eye on our WIP
16:33:06 fwiesel It takes more time, because a couple of other problems happened. (Such as expired certificates)
16:33:36 fwiesel I'll be on PTO on next Monday, so I can report back on the Monday after that
16:33:46 gibi fwiesel: OK, have a good PTO
16:33:58 fwiesel But I am optimistic, I can validate the fix this week.
16:34:04 fwiesel That's it from my side.
16:34:20 Uggla spoil, we might not have a meeting next week
16:35:07 Uggla thx fwiesel

16:36:40 gibi I saw novncproxy working in native threading mode with sambork's patch. so good progress there
16:36:52 Uggla \o/
16:36:59 Uggla thx sambork
16:37:15 gibi I left a bunch of comments in the patch but we are moving in the right direction I belive
16:37:43 gibi that is all from me

16:38:14 Uggla #topic Nova using openstack sdk for neutron
16:38:34 Uggla layos is not anymore available, so pasting what he said earlier:
16:38:51 Uggla "from my side I worked/working on the patch for migrating security-groups to SDK, so some progress with it :-)"
16:39:20 sean-k-mooney oh not aviabel to attend the meeting not "not avaible to contineu the work"
