#openstack-nova - 2026-07-13
12:30:13 elodilles i see
12:30:50 sean-k-mooney which form a defence in dept pont of view i get but adressspace was never the right thing to limit on in my view RSS was but even then we dont sandbox all the other clis we interact with so it feels kind of arbiaty that we did limit qemu-img
12:33:28 elodilles sean-k-mooney: still, i'm a bit hesitant to backport this patch. i'd perhaps tempest-regex-exclude for this single test case on stable branches (as this test case was disabled before the revert has landed on tempest)
12:34:09 sean-k-mooney well this test used to be sable on the stable branchs
12:34:20 sean-k-mooney it was broken by a qemu release
12:34:51 sean-k-mooney so sure we can disbale it but i think we expect to backport the bugfix regardless fo the ci
12:35:14 sean-k-mooney this sued to work on stable and it was regressed by a ubuntu package release
12:35:23 elodilles ah, i see
12:35:25 sean-k-mooney so we want to be abel to suprpot existing users
12:37:12 sean-k-mooney elodilles: this affect a very specific subset of deployemtn because it depens on teh qemu+librados/ceph clinet release in use. and you have to have encypted volumes as well.
12:37:37 sean-k-mooney anyway lets get some ci results adn see if the backprot even works
12:38:43 sean-k-mooney elodilles: we could also backport swaping the ceph jobs to debian 12 but chaning the disto seams more invasive to me
12:39:07 sean-k-mooney althouhg it would only be on 2025.1
12:39:25 sean-k-mooney 2025.2+ already were using debian for ceph
12:40:52 sean-k-mooney elodilles: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/devstack-plugin-ceph/+/997035 we can proably dicusss that in the qa channel seperatly
12:44:00 elodilles sean-k-mooney: thanks for the explanation. i've commented on the patch my concern o:)
12:45:47 sean-k-mooney we could set it to the same value in the backport and tweak it in the job or as you said just exclude the test form the relevent jobs
12:48:36 elodilles i'm not fully against backporting the patch as is, if stable cores agree to do so o:) but maybe the above options are less invasive ^^^

13:33:48 opendevreview Merged openstack/nova master: doc: Update cursive repository path https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/996880
15:27:29 gmaan gibi: thanks for placement release, I had to do same workaround of testing nova cross jobs with placement master when enforce_scope removal caused the issue. I tired to release it but then dropped the idea to let it releases during its own time.
15:27:46 gmaan gibi: on 2160224, I will check today bug and the change.
15:35:37 opendevreview Joan Gilabert proposed openstack/nova master: Report OWNER_NOVA trait on resource providers https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/994299

15:35:56 gibi gmaan: thanks!
15:36:07 gibi it turned out that releasing a beta was easy
15:39:01 gibi FYI nova meeting starts in 20 mintes here. (I will be your guide today)
16:00:49 gibi #startmeeting nova
16:00:49 opendevmeet Meeting started Mon Jul 13 16:00:49 2026 UTC and is due to finish in 60 minutes. The chair is gibi. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot.
16:00:49 opendevmeet Useful Commands: #action #agreed #help #info #idea #link #topic #startvote.
16:00:49 opendevmeet The meeting name has been set to 'nova'
16:00:59 gibi o/
16:01:01 tkajinam o/
16:01:03 elodilles o/
16:02:00 gibi lets wait a bit to see if others show up
16:02:17 gibi I know that Uggla and bauzas are off today
16:03:26 gibi #topic Bugs (stuck/critical)
16:03:32 gibi any bugs to talk about?
16:04:08 gibi #topic Gate status
16:04:21 gibi anything worth mentioning about the gate?
16:04:31 tkajinam nothing I'm aware of, though we might need to be careful about gate status for a while after mass m-2 releases of libraries
16:04:40 gibi good heads up
16:05:08 tkajinam removal of enforce_scope is one of the upcoming big changes.
16:05:41 gibi we also landed major functional test changes to support threading, the threading job is non voting at the moment and hopefully the change does not affect the eventlet job
16:06:03 gibi but if you see strange things in functional test then let me know
16:06:10 elodilles oh, btw, there was a cross-nova job failure in oslo.concurrency release
16:06:11 sean-k-mooney o/
16:06:21 gibi elodilles: do you have a link?
16:06:33 elodilles this is the patch: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/requirements/+/996809
16:06:46 elodilles and this is the job: https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/9c3d2302c2dc453092804e0db538deb3
16:07:03 elodilles i've already pinged the oslo team
16:07:08 elodilles on IRC
16:07:19 gibi the failing test called test_concurrent_server_delete so I feel relavance here :)
16:07:28 sean-k-mooney hum
16:07:30 elodilles just popped into my mind now that tkajinam mentioned the mass m-2 releases o:)
16:07:31 gibi anyhow I can take a deper look tomorrow
16:08:09 tkajinam I wasn't aware of any functional changes we recently merged into oslo.concurrecy so that looks a bit strange
16:08:34 tkajinam ping me in case you need hands from oslo side (and I'm aware of some discussions about slow futurist between gibi and sean-k-mooney but am not following it fully)
16:08:39 sean-k-mooney that test hevially depens on lock machanics
16:08:55 gibi tkajinam: thanks.
16:09:09 gibi anyhow moving on, we can handle that async
16:09:12 gibi #topic Release Planning
16:09:15 tkajinam yup
16:09:33 gibi so other than the m-2 lib releases anything else about the release schedule?
16:10:04 elodilles nothing else from me
16:10:31 gibi #topic Review priorities
16:10:42 gibi any important patch is stuck?
16:11:28 gibi #topic Stable Branches
16:11:34 gibi elodilles, your turn
16:11:41 elodilles thanks o/
16:11:42 elodilles so
16:11:45 elodilles #info placement stable/2025.1 is blocked - workaround: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/992299
16:11:57 elodilles #info nova stable/2025.1 branch is unstable due to nova-ceph-multistore job
16:12:04 elodilles this is new now ^^^ :/
16:12:17 elodilles see details here:
16:12:24 elodilles #info stable branch status / gate failures tracking etherpad: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-stable-branch-ci
16:12:42 elodilles there is a bug fix backport from sean-k-mooney
16:12:54 elodilles and i've commented on it
16:13:05 elodilles need nova stable core's opinion about the way forward
16:13:11 sean-k-mooney it passed on 2025.1 by the way but there are 3 paths forward
16:13:23 elodilles yepp
16:13:37 elodilles and that's all from me
16:13:52 elodilles back to you gibi
16:14:11 sean-k-mooney just a short tldr, we can backport melwitt's adress space confituraiton patch
16:14:19 gibi https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:%22bug/2116852%22
16:14:22 gibi this one I assume
16:14:31 sean-k-mooney we can change stablle 2025.1 ceph jobs to use debian 12
16:14:38 sean-k-mooney or we can tweak the regex
16:15:01 sean-k-mooney and if we do backprot then we have a chocie of the defautl config value
16:15:03 sean-k-mooney but yes
16:15:05 sean-k-mooney its that bug
16:15:18 gibi OK
16:15:25 fwiesel o/
16:15:28 melwitt why not let 1G be default on stable and tweak the job for stable to use 2G? that would seem more standard to me as to what real life operator would do
16:15:30 gibi so I see elodilles had some backportability concrens and sean-k-mooney replied
16:15:49 sean-k-mooney i dont really ahve a stong opion on what approch we take
16:15:52 elodilles melwitt: that's another good option, imo, too
16:15:58 sean-k-mooney i just create the backport to confirm they actully work
16:16:10 gibi I'm fine with melwitt's proposal if that helps accepting the backport on stalbe
16:16:13 gibi stable
