23.2.0 ^^^^^^
Known Issues ************
* The libvirt virt driver in Nova implements power on and hard reboot by destroying the domain first and unpluging the vifs then recreating the domain and replugging the vifs. However nova does not wait for the network-vif-plugged event before unpause the domain. This can cause the domain to start running and requesting IP via DHCP before the networking backend has finished plugging the vifs. The config option [workarounds]wait_for_vif_plugged_event_during_hard_reboot has been added, defaulting to an empty list, that can be used to ensure that the libvirt driver waits for the network-vif-plugged event for vifs with specific "vnic_type" before it unpauses the domain during hard reboot. This should only be used if the deployment uses a networking backend that sends such event for the given "vif_type" at vif plug time. The ml2/ovs and the networking-odl Neutron backend is known to send plug time events for ports with "normal" "vnic_type". For more information see https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1946729
* Linux guest images that have known kernel bugs related to virtualized apic initialization previously would sporadically hang. For images where the kernel cannot be upgraded, a "[workarounds]" config option has been introduced:
"[workarounds]libvirt_disable_apic"
This option is primarily intended for CI and development clouds as a bridge for operators to mitigate the issue while they work with their upstream image vendors.
Bug Fixes *********
* The bug 1952941 is fixed where a pre-Victoria server with pinned CPUs cannot be migrated or evacuated after the cloud is upgraded to Victoria or newer as the scheduling fails with "NotImplementedError: Cannot load 'pcpuset'" error.
