[nova][dev] Revisiting qemu emulation where guest arch != host arch
by Apsey, Christopher 05 Jan '22

05 Jan '22

All, A few years ago I asked a question[1] about why nova, when given a hw_architecture property from glance for an image, would not end up using the correct qemu-system-xx binary when starting the guest process on a compute node if that compute nodes architecture did not match the proposed guest architecture. As an example, if we had all x86 hosts, but wanted to run an emulated ppc guest, we should be able to do that given that at least one compute node had qemu-system-ppc already installed and libvirt was successfully reporting that as a supported architecture to nova. It seemed like a heavy lift at the time, so it was put on the back burner. I am now in a position to fund a contract developer to make this happen, so the question is: would this be a useful blueprint that would potentially be accepted? Most of the time when people want to run an emulated guest they would just nest it inside of an already running guest of the native architecture, but that severely limits observability and the task of managing any more than a handful of instances in this manner quickly becomes a tangled nightmare of networking, etc. I see real benefit in allowing this scenario to run natively so all of the tooling that exists for fleet management 'just works'. This would also be a significant differentiator for OpenStack as a whole. Thoughts?

[simplification] Making ask.openstack.org read-only
by Thierry Carrez 27 May '21

27 May '21

Hi everyone, This has been discussed several times on this mailing list in the past, but we never got to actually pull the plug. Ask.openstack.org was launched in 2013. The reason for hosting our own setup was to be able to support multiple languages, while StackOverflow rejected our proposal to have our own openstack-branded StackExchange site. The Chinese ask.o.o side never really took off. The English side also never really worked perfectly (like email alerts are hopelessly broken), but we figured it would get better with time if a big community formed around it. Fast-forward to 2020 and the instance is lacking volunteers to help run it, while the code (and our customization of it) has become more complicated to maintain. It regularly fails one way or another, and questions there often go unanswered, making us look bad. Of the top 30 users, most have abandoned the platform since 2017, leaving only Bernd Bausch actively engaging and helping moderate questions lately. We have called for volunteers several times, but the offers for help never really materialized. At the same time, people are asking OpenStack questions on StackOverflow, and sometimes getting answers there[1]. The fragmentation of the "questions" space is not helping users getting good answers. I think it's time to pull the plug, make ask.openstack.org read-only (so that links to old answers are not lost) and redirect users to the mailing-list and the "OpenStack" tag on StackOverflow. I picked StackOverflow since it seems to have the most openstack questions (2,574 on SO, 76 on SuperUser and 430 on ServerFault). We discussed that option several times, but I now proposed a change to actually make it happen: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/746497/ It's always a difficult decision to make to kill a resource, but I feel like in this case, consolidation and simplification would help. Thoughts, comments? [1] https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/openstack -- Thierry

[largescale-sig] OpenStack DB Archiver
by Arnaud Morin 10 Feb '21

10 Feb '21

Hello large-scalers! TLDR: we opensource a tool to help reducing size of databases. See https://github.com/ovh/osarchiver/ Few months ago, we released a tool, name osarchiver, which we are using on our production environment (at OVH) to help reduce the size of our tables in mariadb (or mysql) In fact, some tables are well know to grow very quickly. We use it, for example, to clean the OpenStack mistral database from old tasks, actions and executions which are older than a year. Another use case could be to archive some data in another table (e.g. with _archived as suffix) if they are 6 months old, and delete this data after 1 year. The source code of this tool is available here: https://github.com/ovh/osarchiver/ We were wondering if some other users would be interested in using the tool, and maybe move it under the opendev governance? Feel free to contact us and/or answer this thread. Cheers, -- Arnaud, Pierre-Samuel and OVH team

[qa][tempest] Update language in tempest code base
by Arx Cruz 05 Jan '21

05 Jan '21

Hello, I would like to start a discussion regarding the topic. At this moment in time we have an opportunity to be a more open and inclusive project by eliminating outdated naming conventions from tempest codebase, such as blacklist, whitelist. We should take the opportunity and do our best to replace outdated terms with their more inclusive alternatives. As you can see in [1] the TripleO project is already working on this initiative, and I would like to work on this as well on the tempest side. Any thoughts? Shall I start with a sepc, adding deprecation warnings?

I believe it started after we upgraded to the Stein release. I haven't tracked it down yet, but calls to the YAQL function: std:Project.getEnvironmentOwner() in a Murano app seem to generate it.

If you change the network with "create new" parameter, it stuck on "creating -or updating- environment" state and after that throws connection error. So i searched Murano network errors and i found this: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E73172_01/E73173/html/issue-21976631.html. I applied these steps and i created successfully an environment just only with "create new" network parameter. After all these, i realized my devstack environment has no internet connection and because of this murano-agent could not install. So i tried to install Murano on my OSA stable/train test environment and i came with success until last step. Murano-agent installed but this time agent could not connect to rabbitmq instance. I discussed this with OSA IRC channel and i think i have to struggle with this for a long time. Apologize for this long mail but i wanted to inform you. Thanks.

I think you've probably just worked around the issue. Using your new method, you're probably just avoiding the std:Project.getEnvironmentOwner YAQL call now. I've also worked around it in our environment, but I'd like to solve it properly. When I get some time to look into it properly, I'll let you know. cheers, Andy

[oslo] Proposing Lance Bragstad as oslo.cache core
by Moises Guimaraes de Medeiros 07 Oct '20

07 Oct '20

Hello everybody, It is my pleasure to propose Lance Bragstad (lbragstad) as a new member of the oslo.core core team. Lance has been a big contributor to the project and is known as a walking version of the Keystone documentation, which happens to be one of the biggest consumers of oslo.cache. Obviously we think he'd make a good addition to the core team. If there are no objections, I'll make that happen in a week. Thanks. -- Moisés Guimarães Software Engineer Red Hat <https://www.redhat.com> <https://red.ht/sig>

[tripleo][validations] new Validation Framework demos
by Mathieu Bultel 29 Sep '20

29 Sep '20

Hey TripleO, I have recorded three demos with the new Validation Framework (VF): 1st demo is similar to what Gael did few months ago but with the new code refactored (validations-libs/validations-common projects): https://asciinema.org/a/NRLULghjJa87qxRD9Nfq0FYoa 2nd demo is a use of the VF without any openstack/TripleO prerequisite, on a fresh and empty Ubuntu docker container, with only validations-libs and validations-common projects. It shows that only with a apt-get install git and python3-pip and with a basic python project installation we can run validations and use the framework: https://asciinema.org/a/2Jp9LZbN0xhJAR09zIpI6OpuB So it can answer a few demands such as: How to run validations as prep undercloud installation ? How to run validations on a non-openstack project ? What are the bare minimum requirements for being able to run Validations on a system ? May I run Validation remotely from my machine ? etc... The third one is mainly related to the deployment itself of TripleO. By using a simple PoC (https://review.opendev.org/#/c/724289/) I was able to make TripleO consuming the validations-libs framework and validation logging callback plugin. So it shows in this demo how the deploy steps playbook can be logged, parsed and shown with the VF CLI. This can be improve, modify & so on of course... it's basic usage. https://asciinema.org/a/344484 https://asciinema.org/a/344509 Mathieu.

[baremetal-sig][ironic] Future work and regular meetings
by Arne Wiebalck 17 Sep '20

17 Sep '20

Dear all, With the release of the bare metal white paper [0] the bare metal SIG has completed its first target and is now ready to tackle new challenges. A number of potential topics the SIG could work on were raised during the recent opendev events. The suggestions are summarised on the bare metal etherpad [1]. To select and organise the future work, we feel that it may be better to start with regular meetings, though: the current idea is once a month, for one hour, on zoom. Based on the experience with the ad-hoc meetings we had so far I have set up a doodle to pick the exact slot: https://doodle.com/poll/3hpypw73455t2g24 If interested, please respond by the end of this week. Equally, if you have additional suggestions for the next focus of the SIG, do not hesitate to add them to [1]. Thanks!

16 Sep '20

Hello Everyone! Wanted to give you all a reminder that the deadline for signing up teams for the PTG is approaching! The virtual PTG will be held from Monday October 26th to Friday October 30th, 2020. To signup your team, you must complete BOTH the survey[1] AND reserve time in the ethercalc[2] by September 11th at 7:00 UTC. We ask that the PTL/SIG Chair/Team lead sign up for time to have their discussions in with 4 rules/guidelines. 1. Cross project discussions (like SIGs or support project teams) should be scheduled towards the start of the week so that any discussions that might shape those of other teams happen first. 2. No team should sign up for more than 4 hours per UTC day to help keep participants actively engaged. 3. No team should sign up for more than 16 hours across all time slots to avoid burning out our contributors and to enable participation in multiple teams discussions. Once your team is signed up, please register[3]! And remind your team to register! Registration is free, but since it will be how we contact you with passwords, event details, etc. it is still important! If you have any questions, please let us know. -The Kendalls (diablo_rojo & wendallkaters) [1] Team Survey: https://openstackfoundation.formstack.com/forms/oct2020_vptg_survey <https://openstackfoundation.formstack.com/forms/oct2020_vptg_survey> [2] Ethercalc Signup: https://ethercalc.openstack.org/7xp2pcbh1ncb <https://ethercalc.openstack.org/7xp2pcbh1ncb> [3] PTG Registration: https://october2020ptg.eventbrite.com <https://october2020ptg.eventbrite.com/>

I do find it quite interesting that in the logs here: http://paste.openstack.org/show/797186/ That the instance reports that it _does_ indeed delete it, so maybe we are trying to delete the image afterwards _too quickly_ and need to wait for Nova to clean up?

device compatibility interface for live migration with assigned devices
by Yan Zhao 15 Sep '20

15 Sep '20

hi folks, we are defining a device migration compatibility interface that helps upper layer stack like openstack/ovirt/libvirt to check if two devices are live migration compatible. The "devices" here could be MDEVs, physical devices, or hybrid of the two. e.g. we could use it to check whether - a src MDEV can migrate to a target MDEV, - a src VF in SRIOV can migrate to a target VF in SRIOV, - a src MDEV can migration to a target VF in SRIOV. (e.g. SIOV/SRIOV backward compatibility case) The upper layer stack could use this interface as the last step to check if one device is able to migrate to another device before triggering a real live migration procedure. we are not sure if this interface is of value or help to you. please don't hesitate to drop your valuable comments. (1) interface definition The interface is defined in below way: __ userspace /\ \ / \write / read \ ________/__________ ___\|/_____________ | migration_version | | migration_version |-->check migration --------------------- --------------------- compatibility device A device B a device attribute named migration_version is defined under each device's sysfs node. e.g. (/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:02.0/$mdev_UUID/migration_version). userspace tools read the migration_version as a string from the source device, and write it to the migration_version sysfs attribute in the target device. The userspace should treat ANY of below conditions as two devices not compatible: - any one of the two devices does not have a migration_version attribute - error when reading from migration_version attribute of one device - error when writing migration_version string of one device to migration_version attribute of the other device The string read from migration_version attribute is defined by device vendor driver and is completely opaque to the userspace. for a Intel vGPU, string format can be defined like "parent device PCI ID" + "version of gvt driver" + "mdev type" + "aggregator count". for an NVMe VF connecting to a remote storage. it could be "PCI ID" + "driver version" + "configured remote storage URL" for a QAT VF, it may be "PCI ID" + "driver version" + "supported encryption set". (to avoid namespace confliction from each vendor, we may prefix a driver name to each migration_version string. e.g. i915-v1-8086-591d-i915-GVTg_V5_8-1) (2) backgrounds The reason we hope the migration_version string is opaque to the userspace is that it is hard to generalize standard comparing fields and comparing methods for different devices from different vendors. Though userspace now could still do a simple string compare to check if two devices are compatible, and result should also be right, it's still too limited as it excludes the possible candidate whose migration_version string fails to be equal. e.g. an MDEV with mdev_type_1, aggregator count 3 is probably compatible with another MDEV with mdev_type_3, aggregator count 1, even their migration_version strings are not equal. (assumed mdev_type_3 is of 3 times equal resources of mdev_type_1). besides that, driver version + configured resources are all elements demanding to take into account. So, we hope leaving the freedom to vendor driver and let it make the final decision in a simple reading from source side and writing for test in the target side way. we then think the device compatibility issues for live migration with assigned devices can be divided into two steps: a. management tools filter out possible migration target devices. Tags could be created according to info from product specification. we think openstack/ovirt may have vendor proprietary components to create those customized tags for each product from each vendor. e.g. for Intel vGPU, with a vGPU(a MDEV device) in source side, the tags to search target vGPU are like: a tag for compatible parent PCI IDs, a tag for a range of gvt driver versions, a tag for a range of mdev type + aggregator count for NVMe VF, the tags to search target VF may be like: a tag for compatible PCI IDs, a tag for a range of driver versions, a tag for URL of configured remote storage. b. with the output from step a, openstack/ovirt/libvirt could use our proposed device migration compatibility interface to make sure the two devices are indeed live migration compatible before launching the real live migration process to start stream copying, src device stopping and target device resuming. It is supposed that this step would not bring any performance penalty as -in kernel it's just a simple string decoding and comparing -in openstack/ovirt, it could be done by extending current function check_can_live_migrate_destination, along side claiming target resources.[1] [1] https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/stein/approved/libvi… Thanks Yan

[cinder][stable] branch freeze for ocata, pike
by Brian Rosmaita 10 Sep '20

tl;dr - do not approve any backports to stable/ocata or stable/pike in any Cinder project deliverable stable/ocata has been tagged with ocata-eol in cinder, os-brick, python-cinderclient, and python-brick-cinderclient-ext. Nothing should be merged into stable/ocata in any of these repositories during the interim period before the branches are deleted. stable/pike: the changes discussed in [0] have merged, and I've proposed the pike-eol tags [1]. Nothing should be merged into stable/pike in any of our code repositories from now until the branches are deleted.

[tc] [all] Topics for Cross Community Discussion with Kubernetes ...
by Jay Bryant 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

All, Recently, the OpenStack TC has reached out to the Kubernetes Steering Committee for input as we have proposed adding a starter-kit:kubernetes-in-virt tag for projects in OpenStack.

[neutron] Wallaby PTG planning
by Slawek Kaplonski 08 Sep '20

08 Sep '20

Hi, It's again that time of the cycle (time flies) when we need to start thinking about next cycle already. As You probably know, next virtual PTG will be in October 26-30. I need to book some space for the Neuton team before 11th of September so I prepared doodle [1] with possible time slots. Please reply there what are the best days and hours for You so we can try to schedule our sessions in the time slots which fits best most of us :) Please fill this doodle before 4.09 so I will have time to summarize it and book some slots for us. I also prepared etherpad [2]. Please add Your name if You are going to attend the PTG sessions. Please also add proposals of the topics which You want to discuss during the PTG.

[tripleo] Proposing Takashi Kajinami to be core on puppet-tripleo
by Emilien Macchi 08 Sep '20

08 Sep '20

Hi people, If you don't know Takashi yet, he has been involved in the Puppet OpenStack project and helped *a lot* in its maintenance (and by maintenance I mean not-funny-work). When our community was getting smaller and smaller, he joined us and our review velicity went back to eleven. He became a core maintainer very quickly and we're glad to have him onboard. He's also been involved in taking care of puppet-tripleo for a few months and I believe he has more than enough knowledge on the module to provide core reviews and be part of the core maintainer group. I also noticed his amount of contribution (bug fixes, improvements, reviews, etc) in other TripleO repos and I'm confident he'll make his road to be core in TripleO at some point. For now I would like him to propose him to be core in puppet-tripleo. As usual, any feedback is welcome but in the meantime I want to thank Takashi for his work in TripleO and we're super happy to have new contributors! Thanks, -- Emilien Macchi

Hi, As you probably know the next virtual PTG will be held between October 26-30. I need to book time slots for Nova [1] so please add your availability to the doodle [2] before 7th of September. I have created an etherpad [3] to collect the PTG topics for the Nova sessions. Feel free to add your topics. Also there will be a Forum between October 19-23 [4]. You can use the PTG etherpad [3] to brainstorm forum topics before the official CFP opens. Cheers, gibi [1] https://ethercalc.openstack.org/7xp2pcbh1ncb [2] https://doodle.com/poll/a5pgqh7bypq8piew [3] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-wallaby-ptg [4] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Forum/Virtual202
