[oslo] Request to merge the new threading backend in oslo.service.
by Daniel Bengtsson 13 May '25

13 May '25

Hi everyone, Hope you’re all doing well! Just a quick note regarding the current patch for the new threading backend in oslo.service. I have already made a few updates, like: • Adding an issues section to the release note • Renaming the [extras] entry in setup.cfg for clarity For the remaining suggestions, I was wondering if you’d be open to merging the current implementation as-is so the new backend is available and then I can follow up with smaller patches. I’m planning to open a few tickets for: • Merging the common files into one • Adding functional tests • Adding a get_backend_type() helper • And more refinements There doesn’t seem to be anything blocking at this point, and nothing that would impact the API or design significantly. Also, from a functional point of view, we’ve already seen successful results when running this in Nova. Let me know what you think and thanks again for all the feedback and reviews! -- Daniel Bengtsson Software engineer

[tc][all] OpenStack Technical Committee Weekly Summary and Meeting Agenda (2025.2/R-20)
by Goutham Pacha Ravi 12 May '25

12 May '25

Hello Stackers, We're at milestone-1 of the 2025.2 "Flamingo" release cycle [1]. This bug-targeting deadline is usually also a good checkpoint to review design specifications, plan feature reviews, and request releases of libraries and clients. In the past week, members of the OpenStack Technical Committee participated in a meeting to review guidelines for the use of Artificial Intelligence to make code/documentation contributions to OpenInfra projects. The meeting [2] focused on improving the current policy for AI-generated content [3], reacting to recent developments. The use of generative/predictive/agentic AI tools is pervasive in our field, and it may be untenable to impose blanket restrictions. So there were some suggestions around situations of use with interesting perspectives. The OpenInfra Board will continue to deliberate this, and your opinions are welcome. TC members also participated in the OpenInfra AI working group [4] meeting where FPT SmartCloud shared their experience running an OpenStack cloud purpose-built for AI workloads. Details regarding this meeting and future meetings are available on the OpenInfra AI WG mailing list [5]—do consider joining. There were no new governance changes merged last week, but several are currently under review. === Weekly Meeting === The last weekly meeting of the OpenStack Technical Committee was held simultaneously over video [6] and IRC [7] on 2025-05-06. We discussed follow-ups to the resolution to extend the scope of the OpenStack Vulnerability Management Team [8]. We also continued our discussion about the sustainability of OpenStack Special Interest Groups [9] from the past week. SIGs require far less structure compared to project teams, and this is by design. However, there is a lack of information on how one can join many of the SIGs we have. An obvious way would be to reach out to the chairs listed on the SIG. However, in several cases, the chairs are no longer running the SIGs. There's community interest in several SIGs, so the TC intends to health-check each of the SIGs over this release cycle and brainstorm ways to improve their visibility and onboarding practices. We then moved on to a topic from the PTG about improving the contributor experience. The TC is focusing on improving the asynchronous workflow for a better developer experience. Members identified several pitfalls: - Onboarding to projects is difficult even for experienced contributors new to a repo -Many teams do not hold meetings they advertise - Patches often receive no reviews, and asking for reviews on IRC can be discouraging - Contributors are unsure who to ping for reviews This is an ongoing topic of discussion for us, and we don't have resolutions yet; however, project teams are encouraged to audit their contributor landing pages (we coyly called these "So you want to contribute...") to ensure they are up to date with information on how contributors can work with project maintainers. I'd also like to remind you that Jeremy Stanley (fungi) shared two surveys to this mailing list that could use your input as contributors [10] and project maintainers [11]. Having the information sought in these surveys will be crucial for us to improve the community and keep the OpenStack community sustainable. Please take these surveys and share them! The next weekly meeting of the OpenStack Technical Committee is today, 2025-05-13. This meeting will be held in the #openstack-tc channel on OFTC at 1700 UTC. Please find the agenda and other details on the meeting's wiki page [12]. I hope you're able to join us. === Governance Proposals === === Open for review === - Clarify actions when no elections are required | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/949431 - Require declaration of affiliation from TC Candidates | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/949432 === Upcoming Events === - 2025-05-13: OpenInfra Board Meeting: https://board.openinfra.org/ - 2025-05-22: OpenInfra UG Meetup, Sweden: https://www.meetup.com/openinfra-user-group-sweden/events/306139678/ - 2025-06-03: 15 ans d'OpenStack - OpenInfra UG, Paris: https://www.meetup.com/openstack-france/events/307492285 - 2025-06-05: OpenStack 15 ans! - OpenInfra UG, Rennes: https://www.meetup.com/openstack-rennes/events/306903998 - 2025-06-28: OpenInfra+Cloud Native Day, Vietnam: https://www.vietopeninfra.org/void2025 === How to Contact the TC === You can reach the TC in several ways: - Email: send an email with the tag [tc] on this mailing list. - Ping us using the 'tc-members' keyword on the #openstack-tc IRC channel on OFTC. - Join us at our weekly meeting: The Technical Committee meets every week on Tuesdays at 1700 UTC [12].

[kolla-ansible][openid connect] You are not authorized to perform the requested action
by hobyte＠posteo.de 10 May '25

10 May '25

Hello, I don't know if this is the right place to ask for help - if not, please direct me to the right place. I have setup kolla-ansible on a single node following the quick start guide [0]. It works fine for a first deployment. I used the stable/2024.2 branch of the kolla-ansible and set the openstack version to 2024.2 in my configuration: globals.yml: --- openstack_region_name: "Kolla-1" openstack_release: 2024.2 kolla_base_distro: "ubuntu" kolla_internal_vip_address: "192.168.122.17" network_interface: "enp1s0" neutron_external_interface: "enp7s0" openstack_logging_debug: "True" --- Now I want to configure identity federation with keycloak as the idp, following the kolla-ansible guide [1]. Logging in with keycloak works, but when returning back to openstack, I get stuck at this url with an error 403: http://192.168.122.17:5000/v3/auth/OS-FEDERATION/identity_providers/keycloa… { "error": { "code": 403, "message": "You are not authorized to perform the requested action.", "title": "Forbidden" } } This is my kolla-ansible configuration for oidc: globals.yml: --- keystone_identity_providers: - name: "keycloak" openstack_domain: "federated_domain" protocol: "openid" identifier: "https://key.example.de/realms/master/" public_name: "keycloak" attribute_mapping: "attribute_mapping_keycloak" metadata_folder: "/etc/kolla/openid/meta-idp" keystone_identity_mappings: - name: "attribute_mapping_keycloak" file: "/etc/kolla/openid/attribute_mapping.json" --- attribute_mapping.json: --- [ { "local": [ { "user": { "name": "{0}", "email": "{1}" }, "group": { "domain": { "name": "federated_domain" }, "name": "federated_users" } } ], "remote": [ { "type": "OIDC-preferred_username" }, { "type": "OIDC-email" } ] } ] --- In the keystone logs, I see this error, but It dosn't make any sense to me. The user is not created in openstack. So I think my mapping is wrong. But from the logs I cannot see if this is the case or if the error is somewhere else. Is it possible to check my mapping or increase the log verbosity so I can track down the error? Or do I have an error in my attribute mapping I need to fix?

[release] Release countdown for week R-20, May 12 - May 16
by Elõd Illés 09 May '25

09 May '25

Development Focus ----------------- The Flamingo-1 milestone is next week, on May 15th, 2025! Project team plans for the 2025.2 Flamingo cycle should now be solidified. General Information ------------------- Libraries need to be released at least once per milestone period. Next week, the release team will propose releases for any library which had changes but has not been otherwise released since the 2025.1 Epoxy release. PTL's or release liaisons, please watch for these and give a +1 to acknowledge them. If there is some reason to hold off on a release, let us know that as well, by posting a -1. If we do not hear anything at all by the end of the week, we will assume things are OK to proceed. NB: If one of your libraries is still releasing 0.x versions, start thinking about when it will be appropriate to do a 1.0 version. The version number does signal the state, real or perceived, of the library, so we strongly encourage going to a full major version once things are in a good and usable state. Upcoming Deadlines & Dates -------------------------- Flamingo-1 milestone: May 15th, 2025 Előd Illés irc: elodilles @ #openstack-release

[watcher] Deprecate noisy neighbor strategy
by Douglas Viroel 09 May '25

09 May '25

Hello everyone, As discussed during the Flamingo PTG[1], it was decided to deprecate the noisy neighbor strategy[2] during this cycle. The main issue with this strategy is that it's limited to analyze only Last Level Cache metrics, which are not available anymore, since Nova dropped Intel CMT support in the Victoria release[3]. We still plan to keep the noisy_neighbor goal since some people have interest in developing a new strategy for it. Let us know if there are any objections. A patch to deprecate the strategy is now proposed [4]. [1] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/apr2025-ptg-watcher#L219 [2] https://docs.openstack.org/watcher/2025.1/strategies/noisy_neighbor.html [3] https://docs.openstack.org/releasenotes/nova/victoria.html#relnotes-22-0-0-… [4] https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/watcher/+/949065 BR, -- Douglas Viroel - dviroel

[ops][upgrades][slurp] Seeking OpenStack Upgrade Case Studies
by Allison Price 08 May '25

08 May '25

Hi everyone, We have now published two case studies from OpenStack users who have implemented and are benefiting from the SLURP upgrade process[1]: Cleura[2] and Indiana University[3] I wanted to follow up to see if there are other organizations who have implemented the SLURP upgrade process who would like to tell your story? If we can get a few more, I would love to schedule an OpenInfra Live to deep dive into the improvements made around OpenStack upgrades and what users stuck on older releases should know. If you are interested, please let me know. And even if you’re not but you’re still using OpenStack—please remember to take the OpenStack User Survey[4] so we can learn more! Thanks!

Hey folks, I don't seem to see how Skyline-console uses a "default" project. We are use Skyline in our lab, across multiple projects, but when I log in, I always land in "admin" The link to change project works fine, but the "Default" link just brings up the same modal, nothing seems to be session stored if I set knox to be my default. Is there something I am missing or is this a "to be implemented" thing? [image: CleanShot 2025-05-08 at 14.43.30(a)2x.png] Cheers Michael

[tc][ops][deployment] Bulk removal of wsgi scripts
by Stephen Finucane 08 May '25

08 May '25

o/ As I noted nearly 18 months ago [1], changes in the Python packaging ecosystem are forcing our hand with regards to the necessity of to both add 'pyproject.toml' files and remove support for pbr's 'wsgi_scripts' entrypoint feature. I was out last week and the week prior, but it seems there's been been a burst of activity around both areas owning to some setuptools issues. This is great to see, and the latter in particular will finally fulfil a community goal that was approved over a year ago [2]. Unfortunately, as a result of the delay in service projects addressing this goal, it seems likely (IMO) that we're not going to be able to wait two release cycles (until H, for projects only adding these modules now in F) to drop the wsgi scripts. This is because the setuptools maintainers understandably have little interest in maintaining the easy_install APIs that we had been relying on to date as public APIs, which means it's very likely that this feature will break in pbr sooner rather than later. This being the case, I'd like to suggest that we rip the band aid off, and proceed with both adding new '$service.wsgi' modules and removing the old '$service-wsgi' scripts in the *same release*. To some degree, this ship has already sailed and at least Designate and Octavia have already done this [3][4] (and others like Magnum are planning to do so [5]) but I'd like to at least let deployment tooling folks know that this will be happening en masse. (It would also be nice to be able to plough on and close this effort off in the likes of Nova and Placement, rather than waiting as Sean Mooney is suggesting [6][7] :).) Please let me know if anyone has any concerns. If not, I'll take silence as tacit agreement and (a) keep pursuing this approach in other services that are currently broken (like Masakari [8]) and (b) poke Sean with increasingly sharp sticks until they approve those Nova and Placement patches.

[OSSA-2025-001] Ironic fails to restrict paths used for file:// image URLs (CVE-2025-44021)

========================================================================= OSSA-2025-001: Ironic fails to restrict paths used forfile:// image URLs ========================================================================= :Date: May 08, 2024 :CVE: CVE-2025-44021 Affects ~~~~~~~ - Ironic: <24.1.3, >=25.0.0 <26.1.1, >=27.0.0, <29.0.1 Description ~~~~~~~~~~~ Julia Kreger of Red Hat noticed a vulnerability in image handling for Ironic. A malicious project assigned as a node owner can provide a path to any local file readable by the ironic-conductor which may then be written to the target node disk. This is only possible via deployments performed directly via Ironic's API and cannot be triggered via Nova's virt driver. This is difficult to exploit in practice, as a node deployed in this manner should not ever reach ACTIVE state, but it still represents a danger in environments running with non-default, insecure configurations such as with automated cleaning disabled.

As a courtesy, we have also provided patches for some unmaintained branches and the recently end-of-life 2023.2/bobcat release. As usual, we will provide updated releases off maintained branches, but will not create new releases off bugfix or unmaintained branches.
