Improving stestr... or switching to a (better) compatible test runner?
by Thomas Goirand 09 Oct '24

09 Oct '24

Hi, This is the 2nd time I'm opening a thread about it. Sorry for this, but it really bothers me. Today, running tempest, I got these stats from stestr: - Worker 0 (132 tests) => 0:24:49.209885 - Worker 1 (100 tests) => 0:17:14.791845 - Worker 2 (124 tests) => 0:42:52.690906 - Worker 3 (189 tests) => 0:41:21.307241 - Worker 4 (159 tests) => 0:45:49.503031 - Worker 5 (143 tests) => 0:28:13.282371 - Worker 6 (156 tests) => 3:16:52.364976 - Worker 7 (103 tests) => 0:46:05.366089 So, thread #1 ran 17 minutes, sitting idle for the rest of the 3 hours run of thread #6. While I thought stestr was deviding the number of tests by the number of thread, I don't get why worker #1 only had 100 tests assigned. All together, all tests could have been ran within maybe less than an hour of time (rather than 3h16 above), if not-yet-ran-tests were reassigned to idle treads. I'm currently spending a lot of time on running tempest. Indeed, I'm running tempest on each OpenStack upgrade, from Victoria up to Dalmatian. With the current way stestr run, it may take 2 full days to do that (and that's not even counting when upgrade will fail and will need fixing...), when it could be done in maybe 8 hours (if I count 1h per OpenStack release). So, knowing the above, it might be a good use of my time to dig into stestr and see if I can fix this... or not! Does anyone have a suggestion for another test runner, that's compatible with stestr, at least for the tests selection with a regular expression? As much as I know, pytest cannot take a regexp for test selection, can it? Or is there maybe a plugin for it? If there's no compatible test runner, where should I dig in the stestr code to rewrite things in a smarter way? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo) P.S: On Caracal today, I just had this: ============== Worker Balance ============== - Worker 0 (117 tests) => 0:59:32.291385 - Worker 1 (147 tests) => 1:22:28.228980 - Worker 2 (125 tests) => 0:45:20.969397 - Worker 3 (114 tests) => 1:46:21.667579 - Worker 4 (170 tests) => 0:45:27.577738 - Worker 5 (190 tests) => 2:28:39.744920 - Worker 6 (182 tests) => 2:29:01.402255 - Worker 7 (152 tests) => 2:29:10.183359 this looks better, but that's probably 1/ random 2/ still not perfect, with worker #0, #2 and #4 doing nothing 2/3rd of the time.

[tc][watcher] No leaders for project team, heading to retirement
by Goutham Pacha Ravi 09 Oct '24

09 Oct '24

Hello Stackers, The "watcher" project [1] did not have any volunteers to lead the project in the 2025.1 election cycle. In the past few years, the project's team has slowly disbanded and there have been no significant changes proposed/merged in the project's repositories [2]. We noticed that there were three deployers that noted their use of Watcher in production in the past user survey [3]. It's possible that the project failed to gather any significant adoption, and hence there's less interest in contributing to, and maintaining the project. I'm sending this notification pursuant to the OpenStack governance recommendations [4] to retire project teams. We can mark a project team "inactive", however, an "inactive" project must have some contributors aiming to build-back a maintainers team around it - and it must pick a project team lead, or adopt a distributed project leadership model by nominating liaisons. Since there are no PTL nominees, we think marking this project "inactive" serves no purpose. Is there any objection to retiring the "openstack/watcher" project (and associated deliverables: python-watcherclient, watcher-dashboard and watcher-tempest-plugin)? Once the project is retired, configuration management and deployment projects can drop their integrations as well. Thanks, On behalf of the OpenStack TC, Goutham Pacha Ravi [1] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Watcher [2] https://review.opendev.org/q/(project:%5Eopenstack/watcher.*+OR+project:ope… [3] https://governance.openstack.org/tc/user_survey/analysis-2023.html [4] https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/dropping-projects.html

[all][manila][ironic][swift][bandit] removal of Python standard libraries in Python 3.13
by Thomas Goirand 09 Oct '24

09 Oct '24

Hi, OpenStack Dalmatian is currently fully in Debian Testing, and in a quite good shape. However, as you may know, Python 3.13 is about to be uploaded to Debian unstable, and we intend to release Debian 13 (aka: Trixie) with it. A number of OpenStack (or related) packages are affected by the removal of Python standard libraries in Python 3.13. We need to fix these ASAP (and not only because of Debian). Here's the list of affected projects, with the name of the bad import that was removed from Python 3.13: manila https://bugs.debian.org/1084543 (pipes) swift https://bugs.debian.org/1084544 (cgi) ironic https://bugs.debian.org/1084566 (crypt) ironic-python-agent https://bugs.debian.org/1084680 (crypt) bandit https://bugs.debian.org/1084700 (crypt, telnetlib) There's also a number of libraries that we don't directly maintain, but that are in our requirements: qpid-proton https://bugs.debian.org/1084552 (cgi) python-wsme https://bugs.debian.org/1084594 (cgi) python-falcon https://bugs.debian.org/1084623 (cgi) python-pysaml2 https://bugs.debian.org/1084670 (cgi) These will need to be fixed. For more details with were the bad import was found, please dive into the individual bug reports. While pipes and crypt have direct replacement (subprocess and for example the pypi module bcrypt), there's a few comments here: https://docs.python.org/3.13/whatsnew/3.13.html While I will for sure attempt to fix some of the above, I cannot be held responsible for all of OpenStack code, and I'd appreciate a lot having some help. Unless I'm being pointed at fixes patches in Gerrit, I'll start filling bugs for the above once I'm done with other tasks (currently, I'm working on validation of OpenStack upgrades in Debian), and hopefully, get all in order before Trixie's freeze in early 2025. I know there's probably going to be more Python 3.13 fixes to come, and I expect some package to fail to build from source (FTBFS) due to some tests failing in 3.13. Then I'll run my usual tempest validation CI, and hopefully, Dalmatian on Trixie will be the best OpenStack ever... :) In the mean time, let's tackle the above. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

Configuring Multiple IdPs with OpenStack and Shibboleth
by Abubakur Sait 08 Oct '24

08 Oct '24

Hello everyone, I have successfully configured a single Shibboleth Federation system with OpenStack (using a single IdP and SP) on a DevStack deployment. Now, I’m looking to expand the setup to support multiple IdPs with OpenStack. I followed the instructions on the Shibboleth SessionInitiator page ( https://shibboleth.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SP3/pages/2065334685/SessionIn…) but I haven’t had any success so far. Does anyone have experience or suggestions on how to configure multiple IdPs in this setup? Thank you in advance for any guidance! Best regards, Abubakur Sait

How to create snapshot via Python module

Hello, this is my full code to create a snapshot from an instance. The code creates a new image with type snapshot, but after around 2 hours, its status is still in queue. But when I create another snapshot via the Openstack UI, it works fine.

[neutron] OVS Agent constant bridges recreation
by Artsiom Antropau 08 Oct '24

08 Oct '24

Hi, Team! Pretty long time we’re experiencing some troubles with auto-restoration of ovs after some storms. We’re using neutron-wallaby and openvswitch 2.15. The problem is the next: After some storms we’re receiving situation, when ovs agent constantly recreating bridges and doing full syncs, which affects our network stability. All versions (incl. 2024.2), containing some parts of code that I want to highlight: 1. Non-empty `idl_monitor.bridges_added` triggers 2. `_do_reconfigure_physical_bridges`, then it triggers 3. `setup_physical_bridges(bridge_mappings)` then it contains 4. br.create() I’m seeing note in code «The bridge already exists, so create won't recreate it», BUT at the same time we’re receiving in logs: ``` Matched CREATE: BridgeCreateEvent(events=('create',), table='Bridge', conditions=None, old_conditions=None) to row=Bridge(name=br-tun ``` and ``` BridgeCreateEvent, bridge name: br-tun ``` Constantly – by hours and for all our bridges (we have four: br-tun, br-ex, br-int, br-rmi) while we will not restart ovs agent. So this event filling idl_monitor.bridges_added then ovs reacting on it by _do_reconfigure_physical_bridges, then it triggers br.create() and we’re receiving event once again – we’re in loop. Want to add that our datapath-id NOT changing between these runs – keeps same. Any ideas or ways how to fix this problem and never experience it next?
