16:06:30 Uggla #info Starting: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-2026.2-status#L16 interesting bugs to review.
16:07:32 Uggla Skipping Elod an fwiesel topics because they are on PTO.
16:07:52 Uggla #topic Kamil's news about eventlet removal
16:08:21 sambork Python 3.13 threading voting (997216) and the supporting Futurist dependency (975508) are approved but they are missing aditional +2+w. Merging Futurist unblocks replacing Nova's StaticallyDelayingWrapper (997410). Thread-pool executor centralization (998571) advanced. Diagnostic testing (999378) confirmed genuine CI instability across py311 and py313 functional runs. And we are still waiting for new perftest rerun
16:09:36 sambork gibi anything to add?
16:09:58 sambork if not eom
16:10:22 Uggla thx sambork
16:10:35 Uggla #topic Nova using openstack sdk for neutron
16:10:42 gibi (nothing to add)
16:10:48 Uggla lajoskatona, something you'd like to share ?
16:11:12 lajoskatona Not much the SDK patch: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/openstacksdk/+/995724 is on its way
16:11:52 lajoskatona Some of the nova patches are tested with the fields=[something, ...] option, so slow progress
16:12:03 lajoskatona that's it from me for the SDK topic
16:12:22 Uggla thx lajoskatona
16:12:47 Uggla #topic Confidential computing, status of SNP and TDX features
16:13:52 gibi o/
16:14:00 gibi TDX progressing nicely
16:14:02 gibi in my eyes
16:14:18 gibi I'm most +2 on the series
16:14:23 gibi and bauzas also reviewed it
16:14:37 gibi aaand I saw the feature working on a real machine on Friday
16:14:55 gibi lets finalize the outstanding question and land it! :)
16:15:04 gibi <eom>
16:15:08 antia gibi: did you manage to try attestation?
16:15:13 Uggla \o/
16:15:17 gibi antia: you the very basic parts
16:15:23 gibi s/you/just/
16:15:26 antia great!
16:15:53 gibi but what I'm blocked on is totally outside of nova so I'm not caring that much :)
16:16:23 gibi I saw VM -> qgsd communication working
16:16:35 gibi qgsd failing, but that in on intel :)
16:16:48 antia that should be enough :)
16:17:05 gibi :)
16:17:29 Uggla antia, gibi thx happy it goes well !
16:18:00 gibi o
16:18:10 Uggla #topic Bug scrubbing
16:18:17 Uggla #info up to 82 (+2)
16:18:23 Uggla #link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-bug-triage-roster
16:18:29 Uggla #link https://truc.uggla.fr/ to follow the trend.
16:18:37 Uggla Next meeting (this week): [public] Upstream bug triage. Wednesday, August 12th · 15:30 – 16:00 UTC. Video call link: meet.google.com/zjr-rxus-hzj
16:19:12 Uggla #topic Open discussion
16:19:21 Uggla I have one topic
16:19:37 Uggla PTL Candidacy: I wanted to do another round for the 'I' cycle, but my manager suggested that it would be better to have someone else step in. I agree that if possible rotating the role is good for the project. So, would anyone like to run as a candidate for Nova PTL? (Note: The deadline is August 19th.)
16:20:50 Uggla or if you know someone interested in ?
16:20:56 bauzas I wouldn't be afraid of running again for a seat but not for this cycle, unfortunately due to some downstream efforts
16:22:01 Uggla bauzas ok
16:22:27 bauzas if someone else wants to test it, it can be for one cycle :)
16:24:32 Uggla I'll probably ask next week too because we are not a lot today.
16:25:39 bauzas ack
16:25:45 Uggla not a lot of success for the topic. :)
16:26:40 bauzas :-|
16:27:22 gibi I cannot add to much to it
16:28:25 Uggla ok something else you'd like to discuss.
16:28:51 Leo[m] Hello, I hope everyone is doing well. As requested, I wrote a spec to go with my blueprint:
16:28:51 Leo[m] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova-specs/+/1000098
16:29:03 Leo[m] Please let me know if there's anything else I can do
16:29:36 Leo[m] Would appreciate any questions, comments, or concerns!
16:29:56 Uggla thx Leo[m]
16:30:01 gibi sorry folks I have to drop for today. o/
16:30:37 gmaan gibi: sean-k-mooney[m] sambork unifying the threadpool executors is ready, please check https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/998571
16:30:37 Uggla anything else ? If not I think we can close and keep this meeting short.
16:31:08 gmaan oh, we are still in meeting. did not realize it
16:31:13 sambork gmaan, ack!
16:31:40 Uggla ok closing
16:31:42 Uggla Thanks for joining this meeting. Have a nice day/evening.

16:32:28 Leo[m] o/
16:32:43 gmaan gibi: sambork sean-k-mooney[m] and i separated the graceful shutdown change, the next one on top of it. This is purely to unify the executors things we discussed in the Eventlet meeting. that will help to know if anything it is changing/impacting.
16:32:59 Uggla bauzas, enjoy your PTOs
16:33:15 gmaan bauzas: o/
16:34:10 tkajinam o/
16:35:27 bauzas ta
16:56:38 opendevreview sean mooney proposed openstack/nova master: libvirt: Support Cyborg PCI ARQ managed mode https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/994579
16:56:39 opendevreview sean mooney proposed openstack/nova master: doc: Add guide for NVIDIA vGPU with SR-IOV variant drivers https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/994160
16:57:04 opendevreview Ghanshyam Maan proposed openstack/nova master: Task tracking mechanism for graceful shutdown https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/996299
16:58:25 gmaan dansmith: ^^ updated the doc string for fixture. for whitebox testing. i replied about the graceful shutdown job. I think that still make sure graceful shutdown works as an end-to-end scenario. Please check if we need to extend/modify those tests
17:01:02 dansmith ack
17:14:17 opendevreview Merged openstack/python-novaclient master: bindep: Remove stale marker https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/python-novaclient/+/999529
18:34:05 dansmith gmaan: what are you doing to test long-running tasks? I could do a migration and maybe try to slow it down, but do you have a better obvious thing to try/
18:36:14 gmaan dansmith: no other things, job start the migration and make sure SIGTERM signal is raised before migration is completed and make sure service does hot shutdown before migration is completed
18:37:00 dansmith okay.. maybe I can just put a sleep(300) in some action
18:40:14 gmaan yeah, that should work. make sure to change the graceful shutdown timeouts if you want shutdown to wait or timeout before action completed
18:40:35 gmaan devstack set graceful_shutdown_timeout to 5 sec for each service
18:40:54 gmaan manager_shutdown_timeout is 160 defaults
19:04:19 dansmith gmaan: yeah, so I put a long sleep at the beginning of stop_instance() and I see it doing the delay.. but when I SIGTERM compute I see "no in progress tasks" and it exits immediately
19:04:24 dansmith timeout is set to 180s
19:04:46 dansmith stop_instance should be waiting because it's not @skip'd right?
