gibiHi folks it seems nova-alt-configuration job is started to fail since yesterday07:42

gibithis can be relevant https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/devstack/+/96835407:45
fricklergibi: iiuc you need to install an extra pkg for that, see also https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/kolla/+/972441/4/docker/nova/nova-libvirt/Dockerfile.j207:49
gibifrickler: thanks for the pointer07:52
gibiI will push a fix in devstack then07:56
fricklerlooks like the failure was already present in the testing patch, but wasn't noticed https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/96889207:57
gibiindeed08:06
gibiit is partially me who approved the devstack patch yesterday who missed that failure. 08:06
gibiI pushed https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/devstack/+/988214 to fix it08:07
opendevreviewBalazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: DNM: test nova-alt-configuration  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/98821508:09
gibitesting it in ^^08:09
mikalgibi: yeah, the Debian Trixie qemu requires an additional package for SPICE. Same deal with Ubuntu FWIW.08:15
gibimikal: TIL :)08:34
gibielodilles: for your eyes https://review.opendev.org/q/I469688be203c319dd048d6a99057b8d98369de0e08:34
elodillesgibi: ACK, i'll keep an eye on them08:42
sean-k-mooneygibi: am i belive speice is an optional package on debian 13 and 12 + backport likely has the same pattern09:16
sean-k-mooneyah yep09:17
sean-k-mooneygibi: mikal  so i have been meaning to move that job to debian 13 for a while now09:17
mikalsean-k-mooney: yeah fair enough. I am working on a job for Kolla-Ansible at the moment, but that's likely heavier weight than what you'd want in Nova.09:21
sean-k-mooneyhttps://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/96647909:22
sean-k-mooneywas the change i worked on 6 months ago i just didnt get around to the followup for addign the spice module expelcitly09:22
sean-k-mooneyat least not that isee upstream09:22
mikalI'd like to do stronger assertions that SPICE is actually working, not just getting the server "banner" back, but that's a thing I've wanted for a while and am only just getting to now.09:23
sean-k-mooneymikal: i mena we could do that09:24
sean-k-mooneyit really just depends on what that looks liek and how much time it addes to the job09:24
mikalWell, I have most of a headless SPICE client working now. I want to have a bit more a test workload which enumerates a bit of the protocol as well though. I don't think it would make the job much slower, apart from needing to download (or cache) the client and target instance image.09:25
mikalBut forward looking statements etc etc.09:25
sean-k-mooneywell if you end up packagign this as a tempest/devstack plugin that we coudl teadilly enable we coudl consider addign it09:26
sean-k-mooneys/teadilly/readally or eaisilly/?09:27
sean-k-mooneyoen of those words09:27
mikalJust as soon as I learn what a tempest plugin (or Claude tells me), I will consider that thing.09:29
sean-k-mooneyits just a way of packaging tempst test in a seperate repo09:29
sean-k-mooneyas an example https://opendev.org/openstack/whitebox-tempest-plugin/09:29
mikalHuh, so potentially sharable between Nova and Kolla-Ansible? That would be nice.09:30
sean-k-mooneyyes09:30
mikalOk, I shall read your newsletter...09:30
sean-k-mooneyand if you do that you could provide a devstack plugin to just set up the deps/generate the config09:30
sean-k-mooneyhttps://docs.openstack.org/tempest/latest/plugins/plugin.html is proably more useful09:30
sean-k-mooneyof course tempest (which is just stdlib unittest as the framework) may not be what you want fo rthis but i think it could be a decent fit09:31
mikalOk, I will consider this all tomorrow but it sounds promising to me.09:41
mikalThank you.09:41
sean-k-mooneyif gibi has time to update teh devstack patch to make it work on debian 13 we will likely proceed with it today, if they dont we may still proceed with it today to unblock the gate and follwo up next week09:42
mikalOh definitely adding the package now is the way to go. My thing will take a while to navigate I think. I'd offer to send a change for adding the patch, but I am also about to be pulled away for family duties.09:47
sean-k-mooneyim 99% sure i have a patch also locally but the host i run my devstack vms lost a hardrive at teh weekend09:48
sean-k-mooneyand while it can run with one failure i have it off until i have time to replace it09:48
sean-k-mooneyso my debian 13 spice enve where i was testing that fix is ofline :)09:49
sean-k-mooneygibi's patch shoudl fix the current case and it would be a minor tweak to also supprot debain 1309:49
fricklergibi: it there anything that can be done to make progress with https://bugs.launchpad.net/os-vif/+bug/2109396 ? there was a new pyroute2 release recently, but from the changelog it didn't look to me like it would help with this issue. the pyroute2 cap is the last remaining item we have until we can go back to having "normal" u-c updates again10:50
opendevreviewBalazs Gibizer proposed openstack/nova master: move nova-alt-config to debian-13  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/96647910:58
gibiI respin the devstack fix to include debian 13 and updated ^^ to point to that devstack change10:59
gibifrickler: somebody should either fix pyroute2 with eventlet or we should drop eventlet from our codebase 11:00
gibiI have no other ideas11:00
sean-k-mooneyif only one of those was almost complete11:00
sean-k-mooneyfrickler: i assume its not posisbel to have diffent version depending on if your using eventlet or not like we can based on python verion?11:01
sean-k-mooneynova i now runign nova-compute without eventlet by default so could perhaps downgrade the pyroute2 used in eventlet mode and uncap it in threaded mode?11:02
sean-k-mooneybut that likely to requrie some toolign changes in devstack to do properly11:02
gibihm if we allow downgrading to our small amount of eventlet based jobs then the rest can probably run with the latest pyroute211:03
gibis/to/in/11:03
fricklerhow long will the eventlet mode be needed? 2027.1 for migration purposes?11:03
gibiyes 2027.1 will still have eventlet as a last slurp11:03
sean-k-mooneyand we will be deleting it in about 12 months time basiclly we will do the deletion early in 2027.211:04
fricklerwe could override u-c within devstack, but that won't help deployers11:04
sean-k-mooney2026.2 is the first release where we are defaultign to threaded mode for nbova-compute11:05
fricklerso let me update https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/requirements/+/973210 and then we can see where we actually stand currently11:05
sean-k-mooneyso this release would be compatibaly with newer pyroute211:05
*** jgilaber_ is now known as jgilaber11:06
sean-k-mooneyfrickler: we could also just say "if you want to use py3.14 you shoudl use threaded mode adn only keep the cap for 3.13 and below11:07
sean-k-mooneybut cool lets see what the updated run shows11:07
opendevreviewDr. Jens Harbott proposed openstack/nova master: DNM: test pyroute2 bump  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/98824211:14
gibithe nova-alt-configuration is the job that tests the eventlet mode. So we need a good result from that job in ^^ But that job is broken and being fixed in devstack :)11:20
fricklerah, I wasn't aware that that is the same job. so waiting for it to be fixed first11:28
gibiyeah I relized as we are chatting here :)11:30
sean-k-mooneygibi: so it failed but on an undrealted test the spice tests passed but some fo the live migraiton test failed in test cleanup13:08
gibiI will recheck the nova patch but I think the devstack one is good to go13:13
sean-k-mooneyyep i +2'd the devstack one13:13
sean-k-mooneydid you have a test patch on deb-12 on nova? i just check the patch that moved nova-alt-config to debin 1313:14
gibisean-k-mooney: this https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/988215 shows that the devstack patch unblock the nova-alt-config job 13:15
gibiwith debian 1213:15
sean-k-mooneygreat13:15
sean-k-mooneythen ya we shoudl proceed with the devstack patch is frickler and other are happy with it13:16
sean-k-mooneyas i said the test failure looked unrelated on debian 1313:16
sean-k-mooneygibi: while i have been in meeting i have been having ai agents test my kernel module and it apears to be workign enough for the device to show up in lspci13:19
sean-k-mooneyim going to play around with it a bit more and see if i can get it to a porint where the VF are usabel by a nested qemu quickly13:20
gibisean-k-mooney: thanks13:21
elodillessean-k-mooney: sorry for pinging, can you please revisit my placement gatefix patch / check my comment on it? o:) https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/placement/+/980761/2#message-6b13614a07d353e22186487083fe57b46b3aa02f13:22
sean-k-mooneyelodilles if the grenade job is working im kind of ok with it existing13:25
sean-k-mooneybut i dont really like having a know broken job 13:25
sean-k-mooneythat is non voting13:25
sean-k-mooneyi would prefer if the skip level job was removed until it was fixed but if other agree then we can keep it13:26
elodillessean-k-mooney: yes, i usually remove as well broken / unfixable CI jobs, but with this i feel some hope o:) (also, it's included via a job template)13:27
sean-k-mooneyill merge it for now and we can discuss it more once the cid is unblocked13:30
elodillessean-k-mooney: sure, thanks \o/13:31
