#openstack-nova - 2026-09-14
12:07:47 sean-k-mooney ah your right not yet
12:10:26 elodilles sean-k-mooney: by exception here i mean, that "we should avoid things based on stable policy, but the team decides, that despite it's against the policy, the team accepts to backport it anyway" o:)
12:10:52 sean-k-mooney right but that only applies to configable changes
12:11:04 sean-k-mooney we whoudl not avoid fixign broken behvior in a backport
12:11:36 elodilles +1
12:12:01 sean-k-mooney nova/libvirt has historcally disbaled thing like this in verias code paths
12:12:29 sean-k-mooney the issue here is we are movign the management form libvirt to os-vif and there is a default change in neutron that expsoes the behvior delta
12:12:48 sean-k-mooney we added the fucntionatly in os-vif last cycel but we defautled to the old behvior
12:12:57 sean-k-mooney in this cycle neutron has update dthe defualt to use os-vif
12:13:10 sean-k-mooney so the ipv6 link local issue is now more apprent
12:14:14 sean-k-mooney this is one of those things that is also somewhat disto dependent as the defautl for things like " do all itnerface get link local adresses" depend on the distro
12:14:38 sean-k-mooney we try to normalise this behvior in os-vif when it impact perfromacne or security
12:15:52 sean-k-mooney for example if we create a bridge we disabel ipv6 entrily https://github.com/openstack/os-vif/blob/master/vif_plug_ovs/linux_net.py#L127-L138 for the saem reason
12:27:42 elodilles ah I see. :S so if i understand it well, this is really something that should already be part of 2026.2 Hibiscus coordinated release, right?
12:31:12 elodilles anyway, if the team is confident that this does not bring any regression AND it is safe for a late os-vif release and version bump, then I think release team is OK with it (at least, me o:)) and requirements team probably same, too. *I* think.
12:34:03 elodilles but this should happen ASAP :X
12:49:32 ralonsoh (sorry, I was in a meeting, checking now the messages)
12:51:12 ralonsoh sean-k-mooney, so I think you'll backport it to 2026.2, right?
13:33:31 opendevreview Stephen Finucane proposed openstack/nova master: api: Drop Paste dependency https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/1005563
13:33:59 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: zigo: ☝️ Probably too late for Hibiscus, though we could backport it after the release
13:37:00 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: that droping paste ranther then pastedeploy right
13:37:05 stephenfin that's part of the code I ultimately wanted to have in oslo.wsgi, but I haven't got that ready yet
13:37:15 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: yep. pastedeploy is still semi-maintained
13:37:28 sean-k-mooney ack just confirming
13:37:33 stephenfin and doesn't depend on paste
13:37:43 sean-k-mooney ok i was not sure about htat aspect
13:38:56 sean-k-mooney what we really need in oslo.wsgi woudl be a parser for the api-paste.ini and standalone implemation of the pipeline/middelware loading/cofniguration
13:39:52 sean-k-mooney how that is integrated into the relvent frameworks however is framework dependent
13:41:46 stephenfin agreed. That had been my plan
13:41:57 stephenfin effectively vendor the useful parts of pastedeploy and cull the rest
13:42:03 stephenfin vendor/rewrite
13:52:31 sean-k-mooney ya for cybrog we may rewrite given teh other api work i expect in the future but on the other hand im hoping to pace that change with the other work we need to focus on
13:52:50 sean-k-mooney the api is small but still.
13:53:14 sean-k-mooney watcher uses pastedeploy without supprot for api-paste.ini
13:53:26 sean-k-mooney it has a hardcode pipeline so it needs it even less
13:54:18 sean-k-mooney porting nova to something else woudl be a lot of work as you know better then most
14:51:29 opendevreview Daniel Schulz proposed openstack/nova master: Prevent orphaned attachments by preemptive delete https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/1002439
14:51:30 opendevreview Daniel Schulz proposed openstack/nova master: Add regression test for https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2167250 https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/1005587

15:11:14 opendevreview sean mooney proposed openstack/os-vif stable/2026.2: ovs: disable IPv6 on taps created by create_tap before bringing them up https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/os-vif/+/1005591
15:32:22 Uggla Reminder: Nova upstream meeting in ~30mn
16:00:22 elodilles Uggla: i think there is an issue with your editing of Nova Meeting page at line "#info Nova deadlines are set in the above schedule". the "<!--" is not closed with "-->" o:)

16:04:21 Uggla #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?field.tag=gate-failure Nova gate bugs
16:04:26 gibi heads up we made openstack-tox-cover on nova non-voting during the weekend to make RC1 possible as it was hanging a lot
16:04:35 Uggla #link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-ci-failures-minimal
16:04:40 Uggla #link https://zuul.openstack.org/builds?project=openstack%2Fnova&project=openstack%2Fplacement&branch=stable%2F*&branch=master&pipeline=periodic-weekly&skip=0 Nova&Placement periodic jobs status
16:04:55 dansmith the cover job has no unique voting function anyway, so no rush to put it back IMHO
16:04:59 gibi the tox cover issue tracked in https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/2167088
16:05:11 gmaan as that is along running job also which take time to pass the test only changes
16:05:23 Uggla gibi, you ruin my surprise effect about tox-cover. :)
16:05:24 gibi it feels like it hits a valid hang somewhere in the functional test
16:05:29 gibi Uggla: sorry :)
16:05:33 Uggla nw
16:05:41 gibi I don't like surprises ;)
16:05:44 gmaan i am worried that is not caught in functional job?
16:05:49 lajoskatona o/
16:06:01 gibi there is some hang in the functional job too but less frequent
16:06:06 gmaan k
16:06:09 gibi I haven't rootcaused it yet to say it is the same
16:06:22 gibi I will work on this as my time allows
16:06:49 gibi at least the tox cover hand is pinpointed to two test cases
16:07:00 gibi with a somewhat usabel local reproducer
16:07:05 gibi anyhow we can move on
16:07:19 Uggla thx gibi
