opendevreviewStephen Finucane proposed openstack/os-brick master: encryptors: Drop support for out-of-tree encryptors  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/os-brick/+/79127314:09
jbernardalright, we have no agenda so lets jump into current release state14:09
jbernarddeadline for rc2 is tomorrow14:09
jbernardhow is everyone?14:09
simondodsleyi have 2 patches that we discussed to get into RC214:09
jbernardyou can put them here too so others can see14:10
jbernardand allow for questions14:10
simondodsleyPure Storage: check SDK response on volume/snapshot operations14:10
simondodsleyhttps://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/100588814:10
simondodsleyFix exclusivity enforcement between replicated and non-replicated CGs14:11
simondodsleyhttps://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/100588914:11
simondodsleythey are merged to master - these are the backports to 2026.214:11
harshHi.. will this backport be part of 2026.2 ? : [IBM SVf] Skip iSCSI IP discovery when FC protocol is configured | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/100634314:13
harshit got merged in master in Friday.14:13
jayaanandhi14:14
erlonsimondodsley: can you trigger a ci run on those?14:15
simondodsleyfor our 3rd party?14:15
erlonyes14:16
simondodsleyall the runs that it passed were from master before it was cut to stable/2026.2 so those are valid14:16
simondodsleyi mean - the patches these were cherry-picked from14:17
opendevreviewStephen Finucane proposed openstack/os-brick master: encryptors: Drop support for out-of-tree encryptors  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/os-brick/+/79127314:17
simondodsleyour ci is being reconfigured to support 2026.2 currently14:18
simondodsleyfighting with resolute first14:18
jbernardrosmaita: wrt rc2, how is rc1 looking? are we able to consider these before tomorrow?14:19
rosmaitaif we can get the backports merged, we should be good14:19
rosmaitawe have traditionally allowed the master CI runs to be a proxy for the fresh-cut stable branch14:20
rosmaitasince, as simon pointed out, they are practically the same at this point14:20
erlonI don't have a strong objection about getiing then in without the CI run, since they are fairly fresh14:20
rosmaitasounds good14:20
simondodsleygetting all the 3rd party CIs to flip to supporting a new stable branch takes time, especially when master requires an upgraded Ubuntu version14:21
jbernardok, is there anything else that needs to be mentioned before tomorrow?14:24
jbernard$topic open discussion14:24
jbernard#topic open discussion14:24
simondodsleyI have created a new etherpad for Indri review requests: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-indri-reviews14:24
auniyalanyone has any opinions on this https://lists.openstack.org/archives/list/openstack-discuss@lists.openstack.org/thread/7CMIH324DN66CEDTUT4YAWIVRNMVWCVY/14:25
auniyala backport of dell patch14:25
simondodsleyfeel free to move your outstanding Hibiscus reviews to this 14:25
fqiThe specification for "retype volume including snapshots" has been updated. I would appreciate it if you could review it.14:26
fqihttps://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder-specs/+/98932214:26
simondodsleyA warning for all vendors with an FC-based CI system. When you upgrade to use Resolute (26.04) for master (2027.1) these will always fail due to a bug in os-brick - this has a patch that should merge today, but we have to get a new os-brick built which won't be until October 514:27
simondodsleyfqi: I'll look at that today14:28
fqiThank you very much.14:28
jbernardwe do have an rc-2 bugs pad https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-hibiscus-RC-bugs14:29
erlonauniyal: thanks for bringing that up. To summarize the discussion, Dell wants to backport of change, which is bigger than an usual fix, anf i think also brings a small feature. The request is because, the Gazpacho is broken without it14:29
eduardomorais[m]simondodsleyif you can take a look in this https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/1005579 i will appreciate 14:29
jbernardi updated the merged ones, but we should take a look at those as well14:29
erlon* the dell driver is broken in Gazpacho, if the storage uses v5 of the firmware14:30
simondodsleywell - if Dell will ship breaking code :D14:31
auniyalmy concern is why it need to be merged upstream stable, why cant they backport from master if its required for them14:31
auniyaland fix issues - why to disturb upstream stable14:32
rosmaitayeah, PF5 support seems like a feature, which is not traditionally backportable14:33
erlonauniyal, I dont know how they distribute their drivers, but having a working version would definitely help distros to get the working version in14:35
erlonI couldn't review the code, but my initial thought was that, if the patch was split, in the fix was added very locally, it would cause minor disturbances14:36
vijay-jattiHi14:37
erlonBut still considering that, the driver is not functional (on v5), and the change is localized to the driver, I would support having it backported as it is, since to me the benefits outwheigths the regression concerns14:38
simondodsleybeing devil's advocate here - breaking our backporting rules is a slippery slope... 14:39
erlonsimondodsley: slipping day today then, 1 backport without CI and 1 with a feature :P14:41
simondodsleybug fixes and features are different things14:42
vijay-jatti#action Can these patches can be reviewed on priority Priority 1- Improved failover/failback handling for Active PP – https://review.opendev.org/c/ope]nstack/cinder/+/1001152 (rework addressed) Priority 2- Enhanced admitrcopyhost support for Active PP – https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/1001281 (rework addressed)  Priority 3 - Capacity-based QoS support (New Feature) – https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/100114:42
simondodsleyfeatures should never be backported14:42
rosmaitait's not like we have a lot of review bandwidth, if we backport a feature, we will need to backport all the follow-on fixes14:42
simondodsleyvijay-jatti: please put those in the review etherpads14:43
rosmaitaso i am inclined to stick with our backport rules14:43
erlonright, Im trying to unstuck a unfuctional behaviour in a given release.14:43
erlonso, not sure if would be feasible for that driver but do you think a targed patch would work?14:44
simondodsleyI mean Dell could tell their PS users not to upgrade to PF5 if they are using OpenStack14:44
simondodsleyWho uses Gazapcho anyway in production? More than likely older versions and we can't backport all the way to those for this 14:45
vijay-jattisure simondodsley, I had put these in the etherpad last week for action, can this be treated as priority please14:45
simondodsleythe moment has passed, so they will all be reviewed for Indri now14:46
erlonsimondodsley, not now, in 4 years from now they will14:46
auniyalso I think we should generally stick to the backport rules. I see this could be a possible exception based on the user impact, but we should still preserve the stability expectations of the stable branch and avoid setting a broad precedent.14:46
simondodsleyand then Dell could request downstream backports through the appropriate OpenStack deployment vendor - that happens all the time14:47
auniyaljust to clarify my concern here is, stable branches exist to provide stability and predictability for users who choose to stay on a released version rather than continuously pulling changes from master. I consider this a justified exception given the user impact; my concern is simply making sure we don't weaken that expectation for future14:48
auniyalbackports.14:48
rosmaitaauniyal: ++14:49
jbernardauniyal: ++14:49
simondodsleycan we open up the 2027.1 spec directory - https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder-specs/+/100603114:52
jbernardsimondodsley: yes14:53
vijay-jattisimondodsley, added the PRs to review etherpad14:54
jbernard5 minutes14:55
simondodsleyput them in the indri etherpad please https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/cinder-indri-reviews14:55
harshagalica: I have addressed the comments on the patch : [IBM SVf Driver] Added support of clone operation for volumegroup | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/cinder/+/98261714:57

garloffThis is with raw images on rbd (ceph), where the locations are just not retrieved correctly by cinder from glance.21:28
garloffShould I just open a bug and attach a backport?21:29
