| 17:57:29 | sean-k-mooney | my cal invite say 22/04/2026, 15:30 (22/04/2026, 16:30, Europe/Budapest) | |
| 17:57:39 | melwitt | looks like yes | |
| 17:57:58 | melwitt | (according to what it says on the gmeet) | |
| 17:58:11 | sean-k-mooney | ack Europe/Budapest is currentl utc+2 i belive | |
| 17:59:05 | sean-k-mooney | we can also just chat asyn i just have not had time to look at the diffent patchs that are in flight and i likely wont next week | |
| 18:02:19 | melwitt | sure np. I will look through some more things too, since my WIP ones were hastily done | |
| 18:16:17 | sean-k-mooney | Uggla: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/adopt-port-trusted-vif-extension looks fien to me we can dicuss it in a future irc meeting if/whenw e go do it | |
| 18:16:50 | sean-k-mooney | its honestly a pretty small chagne to make | |

| 19:01:40 | aravindh | Hey I have a query with respect to multipath and iscsid, I have 2 interfaces that connects to storage, I have setup 2 paths in iscsiadm, and iscsid is set to start automatically with discovery on hypervisor boot. When it boots, every multipath list shows me 4 paths. But when I start a VM from nova that creates only 2 paths rather than 4. If i rescan the iscsi bus and restart multipathd, that 2 paths move to 4 paths. Is t | |

| 08:15:26 | Uggla | Hi gibi, I think you missed my question from yesterday about eventlet. I would like also to know about the duration. 30mn ? 1h ? | |

| 11:43:17 | Uggla | gibi, thx any pb if it is before the "global" eventlet session ? | |
| 11:44:17 | Uggla | sean-k-mooney regarding https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/adopt-port-trusted-vif-extension something to discuss at ptg ? | |
| 11:52:52 | sean-k-mooney | Uggla: we coudl or in a team meeting | |
| 11:53:09 | sean-k-mooney | its honestly something that i could have an agent do in like an hour | |
| 11:53:26 | sean-k-mooney | when i say the chagne is small i really mean that | |
| 11:53:44 | sean-k-mooney | we just need to read a new atibute if its there and pass that along | |

| 12:43:06 | LarsErikP | aha..! anyone someone could poke? :P | |
| 12:43:18 | sean-k-mooney | i can rebase them again quickly | |
| 12:43:49 | LarsErikP | that could potentially wake someone up? | |
| 12:46:31 | gibi | Uggla: no problem if it is before the global one | |
| 12:47:36 | Uggla | cool, thx | |
| 13:01:26 | gibi | melwitt: when you are up. I noticed a fauilure in tn the new vtpm job https://storage.bhs.cloud.ovh.net/v1/AUTH_dcaab5e32b234d56b626f72581e3644c/zuul_opendev_logs_9a1/openstack/9a13b97fb5204ac6a8f4c0d726431f53/testr_results.html Maybe we have some instabilities?/ | |

| 15:08:13 | melwitt | gibi: I will look thanks. and I will also look into the vtpm failure to see what happened, it is possible there could be instability | |

| 16:18:39 | gibi | dansmith: re how database connection is hanlded vs eventlet yielding. I tried to get a picture by collecting GMR from nova-api after it already accessed the nova_api DB at least once. I see nothing in the GMR that points to a worker pool | |
| 16:18:47 | gibi | eventlet case: https://paste.openstack.org/show/bqGu0wQfQPTAiyZQXvoA/ | |
| 16:18:58 | gibi | native threading case: https://paste.openstack.org/show/bqGu0wQfQPTAiyZQXvoA/ | |
| 16:19:11 | gibi | native threading case, really: https://paste.openstack.org/show/bkFNKzsf5fBmonSNMy9g/ | |
| 16:24:45 | gibi | (in native threading I think the two extra threads are workers in our default or scatter gather pool I can prove that if needed) | |
| 16:27:40 | dansmith | gibi: so each individual transaction is really blocking our entire process? | |
| 16:32:03 | gibi | I have to prove that | |
| 16:34:05 | gibi | maybe I misunderstand something. But with uwsgi (devstack) with a single process, nova-api can only handle one API request at a time as the wsgi stack does not know how to pass multiple requests to that single process. So it does not matter if that single process while handling that single request is actually blocking on DB transcations | |
| 16:34:53 | gibi | this is different in conductor where multiple RPC request can be handled in parallel by each eventlet in the RPC pool | |
| 16:35:15 | gibi | *by each ~ via one | |
| 16:40:38 | dansmith | hmm, yeah maybe the move of the API to native wsgi collapsed this in a way that makes it moot at this point | |
| 16:42:01 | dansmith | but in conductor, we're talking about a similar thing as the tests, where we have a single process with multiple threads that can all be trying to access the database right? | |
| 16:42:32 | gibi | right | |
| 16:42:45 | gibi | I have to switch my investigation to the conductor | |
| 16:42:58 | dansmith | ack, I'm in another call so I can't really focus at the moment | |
| 16:44:20 | gibi | no worries | |
| 16:44:27 | gibi | I need to stop for today soonish anyhw | |
| 16:58:21 | gibi | there is 73 native threads in our cell1 conductor in a fresh devstack. I have to assume 64 is the RPC worker pool. But still it is scarry. Each of the looks exactly the same when idle. So I have to start tracing the thread creation to pick out if any belongs to some DB logic | |
| 16:58:46 | gibi | but that is not for today | |
| 16:58:49 | gibi | o/ | |
| 17:24:15 | melwitt | gibi: I think the additional threads could be the DB connection pools https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/21/core/pooling.html https://docs.openstack.org/oslo.db/latest/reference/opts.html#database.max_pool_size it would be one pool per cached cell DB connection info. so with 2 cells, 5 + 5 = 10 maximum. I think tracing it would be good to do, this is just a possibility | |

| 19:29:09 | melwitt | gibi: update - I was wrong about DB connection pools in that they are not threads, they are just connection objects. so going back to the drawing board and getting ideas with claude, for cell conductor other than the 64 from RPC it pointed out cell_worker_thread_pool_size which defaults to 5 and the rest beyond that being things like main thread and periodic tasks. this seems to make sense | |
