Trove stable checks broken

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi all, it seems trove gate checks are broken. Specifically, the following tasks are doomed to fail on stable/* for the project: gate-trove-tox-checkniceness gate-trove-tox-checksynta gate-trove-tox-checkdeletions gate-trove-tox-doc-publish-checkbuild All probably coming from openstack-doc-gate defined in [1]. F.e. see [2]. Failures are due to those tox environments introduced in master only, so stable branches should not run those checks. I'm not very proficient in those templates, so I'd like someone with more expertise there to update templates not to run those checks on trove stable/*.

Instance shelving is broken in Havana : needs backport review
by Jordan Pittier 19 Jun '14

19 Jun '14

Hi, Instance shelving is broken in stable/havana, the instance that will be unshelved is not the one that has been shelved. A bug was filled here https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1257594 and a patch was merged in Icehouse. I'd like to write a Tempest test to prevent this bug from happening again but in order to do this, I need the patch to be backported in stable/havana. A backport was proposed here : https://review.openstack.org/81214 It needs one more +2. Maybe you could help :) Thanks a lot ! Jordan

[Neutron] Exception for backporting patch 95491
by Jakub Libosvar 10 Jun '14

10 Jun '14

Hi, we'd like to have backported patch [1] and I'd like to ask for an exception because this patch introduces new config option for defining caching backend for metadata agent. By default, the cache is turned off therefore default behavior is not changed. Caching on metadata agent side offloads neutron-server and improves scalability. Thank you Kuba [1] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/95491/

09 Jun '14

Hello everyone, The OpenStack Stable Maintenance team is happy to announce the release of the 2014.1.1 stable Icehouse release. We have been busy reviewing and accepting backported bugfixes to the stable/icehouse branches according to the criteria set at: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StableBranch A total of 79 bugs have been fixed across all projects. These updates to Icehouse are intended to be low risk with no intentional regressions or API changes. The list of bugs, tarballs and other milestone information for each project may be found on Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/ceilometer/icehouse/2014.1.1 https://launchpad.net/cinder/icehouse/2014.1.1 https://launchpad.net/glance/icehouse/2014.1.1 https://launchpad.net/heat/icehouse/2014.1.1 https://launchpad.net/horizon/icehouse/2014.1.1 https://launchpad.net/keystone/icehouse/2014.1.1 https://launchpad.net/neutron/icehouse/2014.1.1 https://launchpad.net/nova/icehouse/2014.1.1 OpenStack Database Service (Trove) did not have stable/icehouse fixes at this time and will skip 2014.1.1 release. Release notes may be found on the wiki: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ReleaseNotes/2014.1.1 The freeze on the stable/icehouse branches will be lifted today as we begin working toward the 2014.1.2 release, planned for Aug 7 release and managed by Chuck Short. Thanks, Alan

Preparing for 2014.1.1 and design summit session summary
by Alan Pevec 08 Jun '14

08 Jun '14

Hi all, at "Stable branches maintenance" design summit session[1] dates for stable/icehouse release were confirmed, I've put them in our wiki[2] First release is coming fast and starting today we are in freeze period, but given the current patch queue[3] I propose we start with soft-freeze until end of day Friday. Soft-freeze is to allow patches currently under review to get merged but no new patches should be accepted. As always, feel free to raise exception requests on stable-maint list. Other points which were discussed: * scripted freeze enforcement - infra team said this could be automated now using Gerrit 2.8 REST API, details TBD * no changes to the patch acceptance policy[4] but exception requests can be raised any time on stable-maint list and will be decided on case-by-case basis + database migrations might be allowed as an exception (it was done recently for a serious Keystone performance issue[5]) in projects using sqlalchemy-migrate and reserving[6] a range of migrations for backports. Mark McClain will document how to do it with Alembic. * starting with Icehouse support period is extended to 15 months + made possible with branchless Tempest + we will establish "stablesec" a subset of stable-maint which will work with VMT on backports of security patches. Anyone interested please contact me. * Chuck Short will be joining stable release managers Cheers, Alan [1] http://junodesignsummit.sched.org/event/a936d7718d1c4b1dd8dcb9dc6a671e9c https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/StableIcehouse [2] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StableBranchRelease#Planned_stable.2Ficehou… [3] https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+AND+branch:stable/icehouse+AND… [4] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StableBranch#Appropriate_Fixes [5] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ReleaseNotes/2013.2.2#Keystone [6] https://review.openstack.org/70153

2014-06-03 23:41 GMT+02:00 Adam Gandelman <adamg(a)ubuntu.com>: > Was pinged about this one today: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/94406/ "The user visible benefit" is not clear to me from the bug[1] description: it was filed as Low and seems that only effect is exception dump in the log file? Gary, you moved it later to High, would you like to explain what's the "The user visible benefit" of this patch? Cheers, Alan [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1317912

Stable freeze implementation WAS Re: Preparing for 2014.1.1 and design summit session summary

> * scripted freeze enforcement - infra team said this could be > automated now using Gerrit 2.8 REST API, details TBD Has anyone figured this out? I had a look at Gerrit REST API but didn't see how it could help. The goal was to avoid putting temporary -2 on open patches and block new incoming patches. I thought this could be as simple as temporary access restrictions for Label Workflow to allow only Release Managers members during the freeze period, but you can only list access rules[1] via REST API. Cheers, Alan [1] https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/rest-api-access.html
