Hello Neutron Team !! I will not be able to chair the CI meeting today as I have to attend some internal meetings. Sorry for the late notice. We have some known issues in CI and all are under track with patches in gate or already merged. There are some issues in the periodic line specific to ovs-master jobs and 9-stream so will report issues for those. -- Thanks and Regards Yatin Karel

[tc][all] OpenStack Technical Committee Weekly Summary and Meeting Agenda (2024.2/R-9)
by Goutham Pacha Ravi 29 Jul '24

29 Jul '24

Hello Stackers, We're counting down 9 weeks to the 2024.2 (Dalmatian) release [1]. OpenStack projects that follow the cycle-with-rc release model [2] will have their code freeze in 4 weeks. Between now and the release, the release team will communicate with us weekly to coordinate deliverables across the community. The elections for OpenStack PTLs and Technical Committee members are around the corner as well, so now is a good time to ensure that you are eligible to vote in these elections! Please navigate to: https://civs1.civs.us/cgi-bin/opt_in.pl Enter your preferred email address on Gerrit and request activation. It only takes a minute! :) The following are updates from the OpenStack Technical Committee during the past week. === Weekly Meeting === The TC had a productive meeting via IRC on OFTC's #openstack-tc channel last week [3]. We discussed follow-ups for the eventlet removal goal proposal [4] and recent updates to inactive and emerging OpenStack projects. We spent some time assessing gate health concerns, including an issue with a change to `setuptools` that requires us to bump the upper constraint on the "packaging" library in stable/2023.1 [5]. This was important to get some CVE fixes landed in various OpenStack code repositories. Finally, we refreshed our understanding of the TC's house rules. To summarize: - Changes to the TC charter require at least 2/3 of the TC voting in favor, while governance motions require at least 1/3 of the TC to vote in favor. - TC members can vote positively, negatively, or abstain (using the “RollCall-Vote” in Gerrit). - Decisions need more positive votes than negative votes (ties mean the proposal is rejected). - Any motion or charter-change is deliberately open at least a week after it was last proposed/updated, allowing the TC and the wider community to participate fully. - Significant governance changes take a while to merge because of the importance of ensuring full TC and community engagement in votes. Our next weekly meeting is tomorrow (2024-07-30) at 1800 UTC via IRC on OFTC's #openstack-tc channel. You can find the agenda on the OpenStack TC wiki page [6]. Please consider joining us and remember, you can edit the wiki and propose new topics! === Governance Proposals === ==== Merged ==== - Add `os-test-images` under glance | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/925044 ==== Open for review/discussion ==== - [Follow-up] Fix typos in the eventlet proposal | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/924944 - Update criteria for inactive projects to become active again | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/921500 - Follow up on the affiliation diversity handling | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/923876 - Inactive state extensions: Monasca | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/923919 === Upcoming Events === - 2024-08-12: Call for Proposals due for the OpenInfra Days NA [7] - 2024-08-14: Nominations open for 2025.1 OpenStack PTL+TC elections - 2024-08-24: OpenInfra Days, Vietnam: https://2024.vietopeninfra.org/ - 2024-08-29: Dalmatian-3 milestone - 2024-09-03: OpenInfra Summit Asia, Suwon The OpenStack Technical Committee serves you!

[nova][ops] Deprecate AMI/direct kernel boot support
by Dan Smith 29 Jul '24

29 Jul '24

Hi all, tl;dr: We really need ops feedback about any direct need to retain this feature. Since the early days, Nova has supported the notion of "direct linux kernel boot" (with libvirt/kvm at least). This means each bootable image in Glance is actually three parts: a disk image, a ramdisk image, and a kernel. Booting the instance involves putting the kernel and ramdisk into memory in a special way that the kernel can immediately start booting instead of doing things like running the bootloader like a normal system does. This is present in Nova because of long-ago Amazon compatibility, as this is how Xen paravirt guests used to work for them. I think that in the early days of Nova, compatibility with the _actual_ images used on Amazon was important, but I think that is no longer something we need to care about today, just as we have deprecated EC2 API compatibility. It should also be noted that some of it is broken, and the recent CVE fixes have broken it like three times in the last 30 days. Continuing to support it makes the code more complex and fragile, and arguably less secure. So, I'm asking for operator feedback on this question: Do you need this feature, and if so, why? Speak now or expect to see it deprecated for removal very soon. Thanks! --Dan

[qa] Core lists cleanup
by Martin Kopec 26 Jul '24

26 Jul '24

Hi everyone, we're planning to clean up the QA core lists, which have grown over time, to ensure they contain only active contributors. This will help anyone seeking a core reviewer for their patch know whom to contact. A core reviewer's activity will be assessed based on a 2-year period of making reviews. In other words, we will remove all users who haven't made any reviews in the respective repositories in the past 2 years. The cleanup will focus on these 3 core lists: * tempest-core * devstack-core * qa-release We're going to assess the activity and make the changes not sooner than August 12. If this cleanup affects you and you still wish to be included in one of the above core lists and work in a core reviewer capacity, please let me know. Thanks, -- Martin Kopec Principal Software Quality Engineer Red Hat EMEA IM: kopecmartin
