#openstack-nova - 2026-06-01
16:09:29 Uggla Core maintainers, I know you are busy, but it would be great to review the 2 above specs, especially the first one where Sean is already +2
16:10:06 Uggla This spec is the one more awaited by cardoe, that we miss several time.
16:10:33 Uggla #info Starting: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-2026.2-status#L16 interesting bugs to review.
16:11:02 Uggla That's all for that topic unless you have something else to share. Or any reaction ?
16:12:01 Uggla seems not so moving on.
16:12:07 Uggla #topic Stable Branches
16:12:15 elodilles thanks
16:12:28 elodilles grenade-skip-level on stable/2025.2 and grenade on stable/2025.1 are failing due to 2024.2 Dalmatian EOL
16:12:38 elodilles #info grenade-skip-level job removed from stable/2025.2, gate is unblocked on the branch
16:12:51 elodilles #info stable/2025.1 is still blocked, grenade on stable/2025.1 has a workaround: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/989579
16:13:28 elodilles though it was agreed on QA channel that these grenade's are not relevant and can be removed,
16:13:49 elodilles i've proposed the above fix, as it is still exercising the grenade
16:13:56 elodilles (against 2024.2-eol)
16:14:14 elodilles when it breaks -> we can remove for good
16:14:55 elodilles #info stable branch status / gate failures tracking etherpad: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-stable-branch-ci
16:15:00 Uggla I think I would remove it also for 2025.1.
16:15:16 elodilles Uggla: ACK, we can do that
16:15:32 Uggla just a personal opinion
16:16:12 Uggla other could not agree
16:16:13 elodilles either that, or merge the above fix will unblock the gate for now
16:16:45 elodilles for stable/2025.1
16:16:54 elodilles and that's all from me
16:17:14 Uggla thanks elodilles
16:17:20 elodilles np
16:17:43 Uggla #topic vmwareapi 3rd-party CI efforts Highlights
16:17:47 Uggla fwiesel, do you have something to share?
16:17:52 fwiesel Hi, no updates from my side. I was on PTO.
16:18:12 Uggla thanks, I hope they were good!
16:18:44 Uggla #topic Gibi/Kamil's news about eventlet removal
16:19:23 Uggla or sambork
16:19:34 sambork Eventlet update:
16:19:35 sambork https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/983179 - This updates the nova-alt-configurations job to run with the noVNC proxy enabled over TLS. It previously had a +2, but after a rebase, it is now missing one.
16:19:35 sambork https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/988583/7 - This switches fixtures from in-memory SQLite to per-test, file-backed SQLite with WAL mode to support native threading.
16:19:35 sambork https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/987815 - I am still trying to figure out the Python 3.14 / websockify issue with pickling (specifically, how to fix it to avoid pickling entirely).
16:19:36 sambork https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/986282 - gibi also update poison eventlet patch
16:20:09 sambork so we progressing but slower in last weeks bigest progress was with testing
16:20:26 sambork do you have something to add gibi?
16:20:46 sambork and thanks for passing mic :)
16:21:02 gibi I have nothing to add
16:21:07 gibi thanks sambork for the summary
16:21:10 Uggla admin question? all the eventlet work is covered by bugs right ? Or do we have a SLBP ?
16:22:13 Uggla gibi , sambork ^?
16:22:15 gibi Uggla: that is a good question.
16:22:30 sambork I think most of it but definitely not all
16:22:37 gibi If we want we can file a SLBP just to be sae
16:22:39 gibi safe
16:23:10 gibi i.e. if we have the chance to go back to the rally based perf testing that is hardly qualifys as a bug
16:23:36 gibi Uggla: could you file a simple SLBP for us?
16:24:54 Uggla yes sure although, I will put a "draft" content, then feel free to adapt if I missed or you need to add stuffs?
16:25:07 Uggla s/?/./
16:25:31 Uggla Skipping next topic coz Layos is not available.
16:25:53 gibi Uggla: thanks
16:25:56 Uggla as well as Ironic, Doug is on PTO.
16:26:08 Uggla #topic Bug scrubbing
16:26:14 Uggla #info up to 185 (-4)
16:26:21 Uggla #link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-bug-triage-roster
16:26:27 Uggla #link https://truc.uggla.fr/ to follow the trend.
16:26:34 Uggla #info I'm gonna assign new bugs.
16:26:39 Uggla Next meeting (this week): [public] Upstream bug triage. Wednesday, June 03 · 15:30 – 16:00 UTC. Video call link: meet.google.com/zjr-rxus-hzj
16:27:10 Uggla I will also close the bug we discussed last week. I'll do that probably tomorrow
16:27:35 Uggla #topic Open discussion
16:27:56 Uggla 3 topics, I think we can start with (cw0306-lee) blueprint for reduce build fail value by time base
16:28:07 Uggla cw0306-lee[m], please go ahead
16:28:15 cw0306-lee[m] Thank you!
16:29:05 cw0306-lee[m] I want to get approve for adding periodic job to reduce build failed value by time based.
16:29:16 cw0306-lee[m] That is used for scheduling
16:30:14 cw0306-lee[m] Now, it can be reduced only when vm success to build on that host.
16:31:42 cw0306-lee[m] So i made this blueprint
16:32:18 cw0306-lee[m] Should i have to do something else to get approve?
16:32:38 Uggla cw0306-lee[m] do you have the link to the BP ?
16:33:03 gibi cw0306-lee[m]: why do we need another periodic? Isn't the stats flushed to the DB by the update_available_resources periodic? Can that periodic due the aging before flushing?
16:33:16 gibi /due/do
16:33:51 cw0306-lee[m] blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/reduce-build-fail-time-base
16:35:33 tkajinam gibi, maybe the proposal is not flushing (resetting the value to 0) but gradually decreasing it
16:36:04 Uggla cw0306-lee[m], so I think you want this as a spec less blue print.
16:36:56 tkajinam the decision may depend on how we control that "graduality"
16:37:13 gibi tkajinam: I mean https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/380f657b5102707a3da676478e72fd96691e966b/nova/compute/manager.py#L2490-L2492 says we only update the stats in the DB at a the update_available_resources periodic
16:37:20 Uggla gibi, bauzas, tkajinam do you think this can be a SLBP ?
16:38:34 tkajinam gibi, ah, ok so we use separate mechanism to maintain the counter and report it to placement
16:38:55 gibi the counter ends up in the stats. I'm not sure where we update the placement trait
16:39:35 tkajinam I'm inclined to say we need a spec to discuss the mechanism to configure this feature.
16:40:23 cw0306-lee[m] https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/380f657b5102707a3da676478e72fd96691e966b/nova/compute/stats.py#L153
16:40:53 cw0306-lee[m] So one reason i made this blueprint was that todo
16:42:01 cw0306-lee[m] I thought this is small topic that can be spec less blueprint, but if i need to write spec, i'll add spec until next time
16:43:02 cw0306-lee[m] cw0306-lee[m]: Todo -> fixme
16:44:38 Uggla cw0306-lee[m], problem from an admin perspective we are after soft spec freeze so we should not accept new specs. But if others are ok, maybe we can make a small exception.
16:45:09 gibi_ sure lets file a spec and see how complicated it is. I'm lost in finding how we manage the trait based on the stats
16:46:12 Uggla yes, fill a spec ASAP, and maybe if it is simple we can re-discuss/approve it next meeting/week.
16:46:44 Uggla but no promises it will be accepted.
16:47:19 Uggla does it sounds good to everobody ?
16:48:06 cw0306-lee[m] Sure. Thank you and i'll write the spec until next irc meeting!
16:48:17 Uggla also maybe, we will have Dan, he might explain what he wanted to do behind the fixme.
16:49:16 Uggla cw0306-lee[m], please ping me as when you have the spec. I'll add it to the tracking file
16:50:01 cw0306-lee[m] Ok, when i write spec, i'll ping you in irc! Thank you!
16:50:45 Uggla as we are almost at the top of the hour, I will not cover the 2 topics from Sean and left them for next week.
16:51:00 Uggla Anything you want to discuss in 5mn ?
16:51:18 gibi -
16:51:41 Uggla seems not, so I think we are done for today
16:51:47 Uggla Time to close, thanks for joining this meeting. Have a nice day/evening.
16:51:50 gibi thanks Uggla
