sean-k-mooneyfrickler: we have been seeing kernel panincs for a long time now mainly on some voluem tests 07:09

sean-k-mooney/sbin/init: can't load library 'libtirpc.so.3'07:10
sean-k-mooney[   11.595639] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000100007:10
sean-k-mooneyim wondering if we should consider uing the  unstable_test decoraotr to annotate the tests we see fail most often because of this07:10
sean-k-mooneyaltherniivtly do you know how hard it would be to do a new cirros release with a newer kernel?07:11
sean-k-mooneyi have done some poc of trying to come up with an alternitive image to use in the past but we end up wasting a lot of ci time because of these test instablitys07:12
sean-k-mooneyim kind of wondering if we could even crfeate a special decorator for kernel panic07:12
sean-k-mooneyi.e. have the decorator check the reason the test failed and skip it if there is a panic in the log?07:13

fricklersean-k-mooney: I'm pretty convinced that this is not a cirros bug, but a volume corruption bug, but I cannot prove it07:40
sean-k-mooneywell we see the same issue when using local storage with no cinder volumes too07:41
sean-k-mooneyattachign/detaching cinder voluems even empty data volumes just seam to make it more likely to happen07:41
sean-k-mooneyit may still be some kind of currption issue btu it happens in the lvm and ceph jobs and when using local stoage so that would make it more likely to be a glance currption issue or somethign like that07:42
fricklerone could also look into making a cirros variant that has a proper pre-filled root-fs, not this copy-from-initrd setup, bu no idea how much effort that would be07:43
sean-k-mooneyi had partly got an alpine image working https://fileshare.seanmooney.info/ with some dib patches07:44
sean-k-mooneybut where that fialed is i was not doing grow root07:44
sean-k-mooneyso we ran out of space07:44
frickleryou could build it with a large enough root right from the start?07:44
sean-k-mooneysure or i could install one package :)07:45
sean-k-mooneybut yes i could pad it to 1g by defualt07:45
sean-k-mooneyi was trying to keep it small to not really increas the devstack disk usage07:45
sean-k-mooneyhttps://review.opendev.org/q/topic:%22alpine%2207:46
sean-k-mooneythat was the patch serise i had proposed07:46
sean-k-mooneyi think i just need to add it here07:47
sean-k-mooneybut its been over a year since i last looks at this so i dont remember all the details07:47
