| 11:53:02 | sean-k-mooney | that only worked for the libvirt driver | |
| 11:53:15 | sean-k-mooney | not for ironic or vmware or other nova virt drivers | |
| 11:53:39 | sean-k-mooney | kleini: also hte bug you filed is a duplcite of 2-3 others | |
| 11:54:22 | kleini | How does that work for Ironic, VMware or other Nova virt drivers? | |
| 11:54:24 | sean-k-mooney | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/2069607 https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1663304 | |
| 11:54:52 | sean-k-mooney | kleini: cloud-init is ment to use the metadata service well knwo ip to determin if its on openstack or aws | |
| 11:55:22 | sean-k-mooney | kleini: they fundemtally broke openstack suprpot with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/2069607 | |
| 11:56:24 | sean-k-mooney | on an openstack cloud we have anti spoffing rules so that you cant impersonate http://169.254.169.254/openstack | |
| 12:10:47 | kleini | okay, so this needs to be fixed in cloud-init and until then I need to place a file in every image /etc/cloud.cfg.d to tell cloud-init, it is running on OpenStack. okay for me. | |
| 12:12:59 | gibi | fyi filed bug for the unstable tox-cover run https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2161963 I will push a fix soon | |

| 15:05:28 | ralonsoh | sean-k-mooney, gibi hi folks, I've seen recently a raise in the live-migrations errors, in particular in the ML2/OVS jobs | |
| 15:05:35 | ralonsoh | I've reported https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2161894 | |
| 15:06:05 | ralonsoh | can you please take a look? Because this is happening randomly. Most of the times is because the port ofport=-1 | |
| 15:06:09 | sean-k-mooney | interesitng | |
| 15:06:16 | sean-k-mooney | yes we can take a look | |
| 15:06:26 | ralonsoh | with os_vif_delegation=True, that means this is created by qemu | |
| 15:06:32 | ralonsoh | (if I'm not wrong) | |
| 15:06:54 | sean-k-mooney | yes and no | |
| 15:07:09 | ralonsoh | I thought initially that could be related to the tap creation flag, but that was for ML2/OVN only (at least now) | |
| 15:07:22 | sean-k-mooney | so ml2/ovs is require to finish bidnign prot with of-port=-1 | |
| 15:07:49 | sean-k-mooney | os_vif_delegation=True menas we use interface type ethernet | |
| 15:08:12 | ralonsoh | yes, but who creates the TAP? | |
| 15:08:32 | sean-k-mooney | libvirt | |
| 15:08:48 | ralonsoh | that's the point, the TAP is created when the VM is unpaused | |
| 15:08:51 | sean-k-mooney | if you want os-vif to create the tap then you need to tell os-vif ot do that with the new fucntioantly | |
| 15:08:54 | ralonsoh | or at least the ofport assigned | |
| 15:09:00 | sean-k-mooney | ralonsoh: yes | |
| 15:09:12 | sean-k-mooney | and ml2 ovs is not allowed to rely on the ofport being set | |
| 15:09:28 | sean-k-mooney | to send network-vif-plugged | |
| 15:09:45 | ralonsoh | yes, OVS agent needs to see ofport different from INVALID (-1) | |
| 15:10:01 | ralonsoh | and then Neutron API will send the vif-plugged event | |
| 15:10:02 | sean-k-mooney | that is a neutron bug | |
| 15:10:09 | sean-k-mooney | ti is not allowed to requrie that | |
| 15:10:14 | sean-k-mooney | because it will break dpdk if it does | |
| 15:10:59 | ralonsoh | this is why in dpdk we disable live_migration_wait_for_vif_plug | |
| 15:11:05 | sean-k-mooney | no | |
| 15:11:21 | ralonsoh | let's focus on the kernel datapath | |
| 15:11:23 | sean-k-mooney | for dpdk we shoudl not reuire that | |
| 15:11:56 | sean-k-mooney | ok well the ovs agent regardless of the kerle or dpdk | |
| 15:12:13 | sean-k-mooney | is not allowed to depen on osprot being set to a non -1 value | |
| 15:12:15 | sean-k-mooney | https://github.com/openstack/neutron/commit/7ebcce0b8dcd4cd482da92672f5ae7c51530a429 | |
| 15:12:21 | sean-k-mooney | is likely a regression | |
| 15:12:52 | sean-k-mooney | well maybe not | |
| 15:13:10 | sean-k-mooney | ``network-vif-plugged`` shoudl be sent when osport is -1 | |
| 15:13:57 | ralonsoh | we have never done this | |
| 15:14:25 | sean-k-mooney | we never depened on the ofport out side of the openflow security group driver | |
| 15:14:45 | sean-k-mooney | so if you use ip tbales ofport was never reuqired | |
| 15:15:11 | sean-k-mooney | and even with the ovs firewall driver we just defered the security gorup flwo setup | |
| 15:15:58 | ralonsoh | but regardless of the FW setup, that is done after the port receives a valid ofport | |
| 15:16:10 | sean-k-mooney | it wasnt in the past | |
| 15:16:40 | ralonsoh | I pushed this https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/neutron/+/992423 1 month ago | |
| 15:16:42 | sean-k-mooney | the tap is created befor ethe vm is unpased by the way | |
| 15:16:47 | ralonsoh | (related to the previous patch) | |
| 15:16:48 | sean-k-mooney | but not a lot before it | |
| 15:17:53 | ralonsoh | yes, but the TAP is created by libvirt, and that requires the vif-plugged event | |
| 15:18:03 | ralonsoh | I really don't know how this could work now | |
| 15:18:21 | sean-k-mooney | no the vif plugged event does not depend on the tap exsiting in general | |
| 15:18:39 | ralonsoh | without the TAP, the ofport=-1 | |
| 15:18:41 | ralonsoh | right? | |
| 15:18:46 | sean-k-mooney | yes | |
| 15:18:48 | sean-k-mooney | and that is valid | |
| 15:18:51 | ralonsoh | so yes, it depends | |
| 15:19:07 | ralonsoh | until we have a valid ofport, Neutron does not send vif-plugged | |
| 15:19:19 | sean-k-mooney | ml2/ovs need to supprot seting network-vif-plugged with ofport=-1 | |
| 15:19:29 | sean-k-mooney | then that is a regression in neutron | |
| 15:19:39 | ralonsoh | we never did that before | |
| 15:19:42 | sean-k-mooney | yes we di | |
| 15:19:43 | ralonsoh | this could not be a regression | |
| 15:19:49 | sean-k-mooney | for a very very very long time | |
| 15:20:11 | ralonsoh | no no, hold on | |
| 15:20:13 | sean-k-mooney | this is how dpdk has worked for ever | |
| 15:20:24 | ralonsoh | I really need to understand how it could work now | |
| 15:20:36 | ralonsoh | because is working randonly, most of the times | |
| 15:20:48 | sean-k-mooney | https://github.com/openstack/neutron/commit/7fd2725cb14b81f442eb57a38755829270ff2c43 | |
| 15:21:57 | ralonsoh | ok, I need to review this patch too (I remember it) | |
| 15:22:10 | ralonsoh | I think this is working by accident | |
| 15:22:26 | opendevreview | Philipp Dreesens proposed openstack/nova-specs master: Add spec for bidirectional RPC liveness handshake https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/984384 | |
| 15:22:28 | ralonsoh | --> The network-vif-plugged during live migration was sent by the SOURCE agent calling update_device_up (for the existing binding that's still active on the source), NOT by the destination agent. | |
| 15:23:11 | sean-k-mooney | that shoudl not happen becuse we set migrating_to | |
| 15:23:14 | sean-k-mooney | in the port profiel | |
| 15:23:23 | ralonsoh | I know, I changed this code | |
| 15:24:39 | sean-k-mooney | and only the host named there is ment to send it with yes you updated that code | |
| 15:25:56 | ralonsoh | sean-k-mooney, thanks a lot, I need to recheck the recent changes in the OVS agent | |
