opendevreviewBence Romsics proposed openstack/nova master: Functional reproducer for #2051685  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/97733110:22
opendevreviewBence Romsics proposed openstack/nova master: Suppress error in cleanup of pre live migration  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/98208510:22
carlossUggla: o/ hey there - considering the efforts on cold migration for VirtioFS and the future feature plans, I was wondering if we could have another cross team session in the upcoming PTG?10:54
opendevreviewribaudr proposed openstack/nova master: Avoid a CellDatabases fallback lookup deadlock  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/100693512:00
gibicores can I get a second set of eyes on https://review.opendev.org/q/topic:%22bug/2166786%22 this is a somewhat high prio bug fix for me. Sylvain already +2d it.12:56
dansmithgibi: I had this open yesterday and got distracted14:07
dansmiththe two regression tests are for regular PCI and PCI-in-placement but otherwise the same right?14:13
gibiright14:14
dansmithoh yeah? I use gpt 5.3 codex for some personal stuff and it seems okay, maybe a little less than claude and opus 4.6.. but haven't tried anything remotely close to redesigning live migration of course14:20
dansmithoops :P14:20
gibinow the truth is out :P14:22
dansmithshame!14:22
* gibi thinking about what would be an appropriate penance14:23
dansmithI'm already reviewing your patch I can't imagine what else you'd want more14:23
gibigood point. I take it!14:24
dansmith:P14:24
bauzasI'm now myself using Cursor Grok 4.6, oops :)14:24
dansmithfar more shameful, so I feel better ;P14:25
bauzas.... and I have a Tesla, wooops14:28
gibidoes Grok bundled with Tesla these days?14:30
dansmithgibi:  left a question about cross-cell cold migration on the last patch14:30
dansmithI really hate having to add another RPC call to fix this, even if that RPC call already exists14:30
gibidansmith: yeah I somehow forsee that. But asked bauzas first to get some reassurance :) I will check your question soon14:33
gibiI did not considered cross cell stuff so I'm glad you reviewed it 14:34
bauzasah indeed I also didn't thought about cross-cell 14:35
dansmithI didn't go look in detail14:35
dansmithbut the use of an RPC to solve this aroused my curiosity given my current mindset :)14:36
gibiOK I will track down the cross cell implications 14:38
gibiI replied to you in the second patch doing the periodic cleanup14:39
gibiif we can land that that alone will help managing the situation14:39
gibiregardless if the RPC based fix can or cannot be landed14:39
dansmithokay yeah, I was thinking of asking what is the impact of just doing this with periodic.. just a delayed freeing of some PCI resources after an infra-level migration failure.. not too bad14:44
gibiyes exactly14:46
gibiit just clears it up periodically14:46
gibiand if that period is long then it might be visible from the outside that we leak14:46
gibithere is a tradeoff on that periodic frequency14:46
gibibut I accept if we only go with the periodic right now14:47
gibior say we only land the RPC stuf on master but not backporting it (pending cross cell clearings)14:48
bauzasI'm looking at dansmith's questioin14:56
bauzasbecause when thinking at the support enveloppe for upgrades, I thought we were fine given the very old API call 14:56
bauzasso I guess this is a matter of non-supported routine for calling another cell ?14:56
gibiwe cannot call other cells there is no MQ for that14:59
gibiso I have to check if in cross cell migration we can hit the same issue or not 14:59
gibiand then if we can then say something about the fix14:59
bauzasok, that's the potential concern I was thinking14:59
gibiand in the meantime see if that the added call is a problem or not for cross cell migration, probably not but I have to look14:59
dansmiththe added call would of course be a problem for cross-cell migration.. the question I think is whether or not you can cross-cell cold migrate with PCI devices at all15:07
dansmithand if you can, if you hit the same problem15:07
dansmithif so, perhaps conductor can do the extra call I guess15:07
bauzasgibi: I'm burned, toasted, dead even. Permission to skip eventlet removal meeting15:20
gibisure15:24
UgglaSorry late notice15:28
UgglaUpstream meeting starts in ~2mn (https://meet.google.com/zjr-rxus-hzj?authuser=1&hs=122)15:28
gmaangibi: dansmith: what you say on this? should we merge and backport this releasenotes updates for leaked task or it si ok as it is? https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/1006095 16:36
