This was brought up in the nova meeting today [1] as: "Do we have a particular stance on features to the libvirt driver for non-integration tested configurations, e.g. lxc [2] and xen [3], meaning if they are trivial enough do we just say the driver's quality warning on startup is sufficient to let them land since these are changes from casual contributors scratching an itch?" We agreed to move this to the mailing list. We don't have tempest jobs for the libvirt+lxc or libvirt+xen configurations (Citrix used to host 3rd party CI for the latter) and for the changes referenced they are from part-time contributors, minor and self-contained, and therefore I wouldn't expect them to build CI jobs for those configurations or stand up 3rd party CI. There are cases in the past where we've held features out due to lack of CI, e.g. live migration support in the vSphere driver. That's quite a bit different in my opinion because (1) it's a much more complicated feature, (2) there already was 3rd party CI for the vSphere driver and (3) there is a big rich corporation maintaining the driver so I figured they could pony up the resources to make that testing happen (and it eventually did). For these other small changes are we OK with letting them in knowing that the libvirt driver already logs a quality warning on startup for these configs [4]? In this case I am but wanted to ask and I don't think this sets a precedent as not all changes are equal. [1] http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/nova/2019/nova.2019-10-17-14.00.log....
