#openstack-nova - 2026-08-24
16:34:11 gibi gmaan: I would say write a whitebox tempest test
16:34:17 gmaan as gibi also done the testing, i think it will be good to add your scenario if anything special
16:34:21 sean-k-mooney ya os i dont think its good to commit results in the repo
16:34:38 sean-k-mooney but we can have a basic how to test doc
16:34:38 gibi tests can serves as executable documentation
16:34:46 sean-k-mooney and ya tempest/whitebox were planned to follow
16:34:51 gmaan whitebox testing is good but as there are many things to take care for TDX configuration, having those in testing guide can be useful
16:35:05 gibi most of the compllication of testing this is HW setup, the flavor and image setup is pretty standard
16:35:22 gibi but I would not start carrying HW config doc in openstack tree
16:35:44 gmaan yeah, HW setup which will not be covered by tempest/whitebox tests and it will be helpful for someone who want to run those tests
16:36:10 gibi I don't like that as we cannot validate those HW configs and they tend to change over time
16:36:22 tkajinam I have to reach LY team to understand their current status about whitebox tempest plugin tests for snp but I suspect they haven't touched it yet.
16:36:28 gibi I'm fine linking to intel and amd docs
16:36:36 sean-k-mooney same, i woudl focus on just the nova settings
16:37:03 sean-k-mooney perhaps the generic kernel options but not toch any bios/hardware cofnig that is specific to a given severver
16:37:08 gibi yeah
16:37:30 sean-k-mooney thing like how to check the capcity or kernel parms is fine
16:37:43 tkajinam I was thinking of adding a few useful check points to determine whether OS and firmware are configured properly (for example checking sysfs output and libvirt domcapabilities)
16:37:46 gmaan well I was thinking of full guide somewhere whihc can tell HW setup (at leat generic one), flavor/image setup, and tests to run (manual or tepmest/whitebox)
16:37:59 tkajinam which I think sean-k-mooney is also suggesting
16:38:02 sean-k-mooney gmaan: in that case i think that hsoudl live outside the nova repo
16:38:06 gibi yeah
16:38:08 gibi maybe a blogpost
16:38:25 tkajinam blogpost may also work, yeah
16:38:26 sean-k-mooney tkajinam: yep more or less
16:38:33 gmaan thats fine, or in whitebox doc where tests will live or so but blogpost also works
16:38:45 sean-k-mooney virsh cap/domcaps or cat /sys is fine
16:39:05 gibi I would really like if amd and intel publish nice docs (and intel did) so we can refer them
16:39:07 sean-k-mooney the basic thigns to check that the host could run the feature
16:39:55 sean-k-mooney i woudl be ok docuemneting this in whitebox in more detail as well for what it worth
16:40:04 gibi https://cc-enabling.trustedservices.intel.com/intel-tdx-enabling-guide/04/hardware_setup/ this is the intel doc
16:40:07 gmaan yeah
16:40:09 gmaan anyways, that is not blocker for the series to land, something to be think of later on
16:40:21 tkajinam +1
16:40:27 gibi yeah
16:40:42 Uggla cool congrats to all! especially antia for the implementation.

16:44:21 Uggla #topic Open discussion
16:44:41 Uggla nothing on the agenda, but sean-k-mooney wanted to discuss something.
16:44:48 sean-k-mooney yep https://zuul.openstack.org/builds?job_name=devstack-platform-ubuntu-resolute
16:45:01 sean-k-mooney so i ment ot make that voting in devstack about a month ago
16:45:05 sean-k-mooney its been pretty stable
16:45:15 sean-k-mooney but i would also like to add it to check
16:45:17 sean-k-mooney in nova
16:45:37 sean-k-mooney that is runing ubuntu 26.04 and python 3.14
16:46:02 sean-k-mooney whith these tests https://storage.bhs.cloud.ovh.net/v1/AUTH_dcaab5e32b234d56b626f72581e3644c/zuul_opendev_logs_b12/openstack/b126e9e318f340e6bc4aa1a357feaf17/testr_results.html
16:46:30 sean-k-mooney whish is pretty basic but gives us some level of coverage
16:46:36 sean-k-mooney what do folks think?
16:46:36 gmaan ++ on both, anyways this needs to be done for next cycle testing runtime
16:46:59 gmaan I am going to add tempest full job on resolute in tempest gate
16:47:08 Uggla from the result I would say yes. Should we enable them now or after the release of H ?
16:47:14 gmaan ping me once you are making ti voting in devstack, I will review
16:47:26 sean-k-mooney i would like to have it on h
16:47:33 gmaan sean-k-mooney: you want to add voting in nova or non voting in check pipelone only
16:47:33 sean-k-mooney that why i raised it now
16:47:46 sean-k-mooney but its not stricly requried until i (2027.1)
16:48:00 sean-k-mooney gmaan: its passing so why not make it voting
16:48:10 sean-k-mooney we can alwasy change it later if its an issue
16:48:16 gmaan sure, I am ok with that, if we see it unstable then we can always revert
16:48:19 gmaan yeah
16:48:52 Uggla yep we can enble them, and disable if it's not ok. So +1 for me.
16:48:58 sean-k-mooney we know cannoical ship 2026.1 on 26.04 so for the most part i expect 2026.2 to work on it
16:48:59 gibi what if we make it voting on nova after FF? not to get surprises this week? :)
16:49:21 sean-k-mooney gibi: im fine with merging this after FF for what its worth
16:49:28 sean-k-mooney i just want it before we brnach for RC1
16:49:39 gmaan ++ a few of the series are in edge of merging
16:49:58 sean-k-mooney ill prepare the devstack patch to make it voting this week
16:50:04 sean-k-mooney and ill submit the nova one on monday
16:50:27 Uggla ok
16:50:54 Uggla anything else ?
