mjsegercreiht: cschwede: good morning12:44
cschwedemjseger: good morning!12:44
mjsegerI've been thinking a little more about why we're seeing differences and wonder if it might be configuration/version related?12:44
cschwedeversion related? you mean swift itself?12:48
tristanCmjseger: I gave getput.py a try and found similar results between 1.9 and 2.0. What is the worst case scenario in your environment ?12:52
mjsegerswift and others things.  for example we have separate physical proxy and object servers12:53
mjsegerand we run container services on the object servers12:53
tristanCmjseger: I also experiments with requests.Session, could you try to apply this patch: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/74444/ ?12:55
mjsegerunfortunately I don't really have any control over the software itself so I'm going to have to ask someone else to deploy that and get back to you.  sorry...12:56
tristanCmjseger: it's for swiftclient12:56
*** nosnos has quit IRC12:56
mjsegerhmm, when I try to access that page I'm getting an application error/page not found.  I am logged in.12:58
cschwedetristanC: is that patch marked as draft? can't access it...12:58

cschwedetristanC: http://paste.openstack.org/show/67263/ -> ~10% faster for puts13:15
tristanCThat's good to hear... I'm having a hard time to get consistent results between two batch of tests on the same client version13:22
cschwedetristanC: yepp, me too, but then i increased the number of requests to 1000 and now the results are quite consistent13:25

mjsegertristanC: I finally got around to that patch and it does seem to make a BIG difference.  I'm going to run some longer tests to make sure...13:41
tristanCmjseger: cool! thanks you!13:43
mjsegerbut wait, there's no joy...  I ran a 30 second test and it's slow again.  seems like those few at a higher rate weren't representative13:44
mjsegerthe real problem with this sort of thing is performance does vary a lot from run to run.  now I'm doing some quick 100 object puts and they are performign well so maybe it was the 30 second test that wasn't representative13:45
tristanCmjseger: well even on a local vm (devstack + getput.py), results vary a lot, sometimes better, sometimes worst13:47
mjsegerexactly13:47
mjsegercontinuing to test and things are looking brighter ;)13:47
*** Anju has joined #openstack-swift13:47
*** saurabh_ has joined #openstack-swift13:48
mjsegertristanC: so in our configuration, with 1.9 I tend to see about 20 IOPS for 1k puts and almost 40 for 2K.  using your patch for 2.0 I'm seeing numbers for both in the mid 30s so I think I'm happy13:49
mjsegerright now I'm runniing my 30 second test 5 times (another switch lets me do that ;)) and I'll post the results when it completes13:50
mjsegerbtw I'm not bothering with unique container names, not because I don't want to use them but because I forgot to add the extra switch13:50
tristanCmjseger: my initial guess is that if you reuse the http_conn object it might improve performance (as session force connections pooling)13:51
mjsegernot sure I understand.  I get a connection and then do all my puts on that connection.  is that what you mean or something else?13:52
tristanCyes13:52
tristanC(compared to a CLI usage where you do a 'put' per swift instance)13:53
mjsegerI assume you're referring to things like curl, right or sticking the swift command in a loop or something like that?13:54
mjsegera real no-no13:54
mjsegercheck this out: http://paste.openstack.org/show/67268/ I'm a happy camper!  this is with patch 7444413:55
mjsegertristanC: have you found getput useful?13:57
tristanCmjseger: indeed it is useful to have a test to refer to for benchmarks14:01
tristanCmjseger: there is a meeting tonight for swift and I guess we are going to give swiftclient performance a topic14:02
mjsegerif you get a chance, you shoudl have a look at the readme as it explains [i hope] how to set up suites of tests for running on parallel client14:02
*** mmcardle has joined #openstack-swift14:04
mjsegertristanC: what are the meeting coordinates?  is it a conference bridge?14:04
tristanCmjseger: it's schedule at 19:00 UTC every wednesday, see https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/Swift14:05

portantemaybe redbo worked on it at one point?16:07
luisbgnotmyname, I am currently writing the media player simple web to play with the API, and sent a patch to fix some style/consistency issues16:07
creihtI know he has played around with it, but don't think he every got to anything official16:08
luisbgnotmyname, since you asked "what is new?"16:08
notmynameluisbg: thanks. how's the media player project going?16:08
luisbgnotmyname, learning how to do all I need with the API in efficient ways, by reading a lot of python-swiftclient code16:08
notmynamecreiht: FYI I want to cover project IPA at the meeting today. if we as a group are pretty good with it, then I'll start talking about it with -infra. I'm imagining that there will be at least one more patch set to include comments/docstrings with stull like wkelly mentioned in his review (ie just like we have in swob and memcache)16:09
luisbgnotmyname, but going well, got a bunch of albums in the storage, and I can retrieve them to play them with gstreamer16:09
notmynameluisbg: cool16:09
redbothe who with the what?  I have a python interface to bulkstat that we use sometimes.16:09
creihtnotmyname: k16:10
luisbgnotmyname, and now thinking about what features could make the experience better16:10
luisbgnotmyname, reading python-swiftclient code made me think though I should release this media player as a sample swift app, for well, having at least one sample app people can play with16:10
luisbgproof of concept, demo, etc16:11
notmynameI'd love to see the DiskFile stuff extended to include a full abstraction of the disk (ie replication and auditing too). that way we could have an xfs one that's more efficient and also ones for otherFS16:11
notmynameluisbg: that would be great16:11
*** tanee is now known as tane-away16:13
luisbgnotmyname, :) doing it with pygtk now, since I had a simple python music player with that I co-wrote for a proof of concept a year ago16:14
luisbgnotmyname, but ideally I should make it a html5 app, right?16:14
portantenotmyname: let me know when you are in town16:17
redboIn theory you could "pip install xfs", then "xfs.bulkstat(mountpoint)".  I need to figure out how to make the .c file get packaged in the .tar.gz so cython isn't required to build it.16:18
notmynameportante: going to be a whirlwind trip. fly into Hartford on Tuesday, NYC on Wed, and Philly on Friday16:18
portanteredbo, we can manually define the data structures in python16:18
portantenotmyname: you folks from large states, think that is considered "in your area"? :)16:19
redboand hope they never change16:20
portanteredbo, and then just make the ioctl calls directly maybe?16:20
portantewell, there is that ...16:20
notmynameportante: heh. pretty much. it's all "somewhere up north, about 30 minutes for 6 different states" to me ;-)16:20
redboI'm sure you could do it in pure python.  But it'd be pretty ugly and you'd have to hope constants and data structures don't ever change.  I'm fine with having my little binary module.16:22
portante:)16:24

zaitcevnotmyname: What's the situation with swiftclient in the master nowadays? I remember I missed some kind of error when I reviewed the port to python-request, and I'm not talking about foo(..., files=content) that ate memory. We had some kind of worse problem that you apparently successfuly handled, but I completely blank on what it was.18:08
notmynamezaitcev: 2 things: the bin script didn't properly plumb through --insecure for v2, so it was broken against self-signed certs via the CLI (client.py worked). the other was that auth v1 just plain didn't work (client or CLI) with the --insecure setting. it wasn't plumbed through at all, so you couldn't do anything there18:10
zaitcevnotmyname: Argh, sorry. One visit to "git log" and I have my answers... I was Tristan's fix, not yours.18:11
zaitcevnotmyname: V.sorry for bothering you, thanks for clarification.18:11

pberisQuick Q regarding object deletion:  At what point is the object's entry in the containerdb deleted?18:13
notmynamepberis: when the container server gets the delete (pedantic, but let me explain)18:14
notmynamepberis: the object server will send a request to the container server after it deletes the object locally. but if that request fails, it will be queued for resending later. but also note that other replicas may have succeeded and replication may have propegated18:15
zaitcevnotmyname: actually err, my question was different... *facepalm* I meant to ask how confident we are in current master that uses python-requests, now that 3 issues are fixed (Config-Length for Glance, auth v1 plumbing, files= to data=)?18:16
notmynamezaitcev: I'm confident in the current state of python-swiftclient 2.0.2 (wrt basic functionality support and the new feature of cert checking)18:18
pberisnotmyname: So, the entry in the container is flagged as deleted until the first copy is physically deleted at which time the object server notifies the container ... regardless of presence of other copies? ... is this method applicable to containers removed from accounts as well?18:19
*** mmcardle has quit IRC18:20
notmynamepberis: no. the object is deleted. then the listing is updated (ie removed). if the listing update fails, it is retried again later. replication is also running in the background, so if one container replica gets the update, it may propagate before the retry happens18:22
*** gvernik_ has joined #openstack-swift18:22
*** gvernik_ has quit IRC18:23
notmynamepberis: I'm including that last detail simply to complete the picture. there are 3 ways a container listing gets updated: (1) synchronously with the request (2) asynchronously later (3) via replication, if another replica had methods 1 or 2 succeed18:23
*** gvernik_ has joined #openstack-swift18:24
pberisnotmyname: OK ... got it.  I gather that a similar process is used for removing the container listing from the accountdb ... bottom line, the lists contained in the containerdb and accountdb should not contain deleted instances, at least not for any extended period.  Correct?18:25
pberisnotmyname: IE entries are not simply flagged as deleted and left in the db ...18:29
notmynamecorrect (with handwavey about "any extended period")18:29
notmynameIIRC. (I should go look at that code)18:29
pberisnotmyname: Guess it depends on what your definition of 'extended' is ..18:29

notmynamepberis: the tombstone row is removed by replication after reclaim_age seconds have passed (defaults to 7 days)18:57
notmynamepberis: FWIW, this is exactly the same pattern as is used by objects themselves ("delete" by writing a tombstone, then remove the tombstone after a set time, default one week)18:58

cschwedetorgomatic: just thinking if it might be useful to include it in the container updater (to avoid walking all containers twice). well, i'll read your gist first and then start thinking :)19:14
torgomaticcschwede: imagine that you find 20 GB worth of misplaced objects; that'll put a nice big pause in your container update run :)19:14
torgomaticI'm not opposed to the idea though19:15
creihtwhat is the likely hood of this happening?19:15
cschwedetorgomatic: ok, got it, makes a lot of sense to separete in that case :)19:15
torgomaticcreiht: low19:15
torgomaticso maybe it should be all one daemon?19:15
* torgomatic hasn't given this question enough thought19:16
creihtjust seems like a lot of work and stuff going on to catch something that isn't very likely to happen19:16
creihtor fix19:16
creihtdunno19:16
creihtneed to think about it a bit19:16
creihttorgomatic: would it be better to have something that would report when this happen, then have a tool that can migrate objects from one policy to another?19:21
torgomaticcreiht: I'm partial to automatically fixing it; if you've got a good ops team then moving stuff manually is fine, but not everyone has a good ops team19:22
creihttorgomatic: i would be for that if it were something that is likely to happen19:23
omameI take it as a compliment :)19:23
torgomaticcreiht: I think it's more likely to happen in multi-region clusters19:25
torgomaticthose slow flaky WAN links can give you little mini-splits all day long19:26

gholtIsn't .99999 one in 100,000 not a million, literally? On a serious note though, what is done about container servers arguing about what the storage policy is?19:27
creihttorgomatic: so what's bugging me a bit, is what is the use case or likely hood that a user (in a short period of time) is going to create the same container more than once on the separate network partitions with different storage policies?19:28
torgomaticgholt: bah, not enough nines ;)19:28
gholt:)19:28
torgomaticthere's 1000 milliseconds per second and 1000 microseconds per millisecond, so it should work out to a million if I can do math :)19:29
portantecreiht: I am not sure it is the case where somebody tries to make that happen, it seems to be more about the case where a mistake is made and then one can't recover19:29
gholtI can't really do math. I ask Google for help all the time.19:29
*** judd7 has joined #openstack-swift19:29
creihtportante: well that's what I'm trying to figure out is exactly what would have to happen to trigger this19:29
creihtI'm not saying that a user purposely is trying to cause an issue19:30
portantek19:30
torgomaticgholt: okay, I added more nines (if only it were always so easy...)19:30
gholtI'm trying to figure out how you have two different answers as to what the storage policy is for a container, and how that is resolved, and why that can't also start resolving misplaced objects.19:30
torgomaticgholt: hang on, lemme find the transcript... it involves a network partition19:30
torgomaticstep 1: partition your cluster by hosing the network19:31
torgomaticstep 2: on side A, create a container in policy 1 and upload an object19:31
torgomaticstep 3: on side B, create the same container with policy 2 and upload an object19:31
torgomaticstep 4: unhose the network19:31
gholtYeah, so don't the container servers replicate and figure out the "right" answer for the policy for the container? How?19:32
torgomaticgholt: there's a proposed patch for that, but I think it's gone stale... it's basically like they do the metadata, but the older answer wins (not the newer)19:33
torgomaticthe idea is that the older copy probably has more objects in it, so it's less crap to move doing it that way19:33
gholtI guess what I'm driving at is when that resolution occurs, you magically know you need to fix objects; no need to scan.19:34
torgomatictrue19:35
torgomaticI'm sort of concerned about what happens if you crash midway through resolving stuff though; either you end up repeating work, or objects get lost19:36
torgomaticputting it in the container updater would at least save Swift from a new filesystem walker, and in the no-resolving-needed case it's just a read of container_stat (like it's already doing)19:37
openstackgerritpaul luse proposed a change to openstack/swift: Add Storage Policy Support to Account HEAD  https://review.openstack.org/7374719:37
pelusetorgomatic:  ^ done :)19:37
torgomaticpeluse: cool; will look soon19:37
gholtYeah, kinda still reading the gist.19:41
gholtI'm not sure anything of this would be what the user wants. :)19:41
torgomaticgholt: the user just wants their objects back, so we can't lose them19:42
torgomaticthat's the ultimate goal here: don't lose objects19:42
gholtYeah, but one user wanted one thing for objects and the other wanted another thing.19:42
torgomaticthunderdome?19:43
creihtwell if the storage policy was to /dev/null storage, then they are out of luck ;019:43
gholtIf there was a way to just leave them separate and have the user resolve the issue, that'd be pretty nice.19:43
gholtI'm talking out of ignorance here, but one ends up the default and the other can be selected by header or something.19:43
torgomaticas soon as you ask the user if they want policy 1 or 2, they'll ask for policy 7, and they'll want it in a periwinkle blue ;)19:45
torgomaticI don't think we can rely on users to fix anything; mapping a container back to a human isn't always easy, and getting that human to do something is hard19:46
* gholt wishes we reserved space to embed more things into the url path.19:48
gholtBut I'm evil that way, push things off to the data owner/creator.19:49
redbo/r/e/s/e/r/v/e/d/container/object19:49
torgomaticgholt: it's awesome when it works :)19:49
torgomaticreq.path_info = base64.encode(json.dumps({'account': 'bob', 'container': ...19:49
gholtI didn't catch what you guys do with conflicting obj names19:50
torgomaticgholt: newest timestamp wins, same as before19:50
gholtCool, nothing special there, just special for the policy, makes sense. I don't like the extras that entails, but I got nothing better.19:56
torgomaticI'm not especially enthused about all this either, but this policy stuff opens up a new consistency-failure mode19:58

* notmyname steps away for a bit20:08
zaitcevI just had something untarred and it cropped a bunch of "timestamp in the fuuuuuture!!" (time zone was incorrect somewhere)20:08
zaitcevI understand we do not support resistance against Byzantine failures, but I was just wondering if anyone at RAX ever had comething like this screwed up by mistake.20:10
gholtOnly a little, since we accept x-timestamp headers users can override anything20:21
gholtSo that can cause some interesting scenarios20:21

luisbgpython-swiftclient in Jenkins has the python3.3 builds fail with: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: './subunit_log.txt'21:51
luisbg:S21:51
luisbgwhy is that?21:51
luisbgthey are marked as (non-vote) so builds still pass, but wondering why those tests are broken21:51
torgomaticluisbg: probably because swiftclient isn't py3 compatible21:52
torgomaticmy guess is it doesn't even compile, so there's no chance for the testrunner to do anything, including write a log21:52
*** foexle has joined #openstack-swift21:53
luisbgtorgomatic, ooooh, that makes sense, didn't knew21:53

notmynametorgomatic: FYI on https://review.openstack.org/#/c/74705/ we don't currently use six at all, so this adds a test dependency (that's not referenced in test-requirements)22:02
torgomaticnotmyname: ...then how do the tests pass?22:02
torgomaticwhat are they importing?22:03
notmynameyou already have it installed?22:03
notmynameis six in the stdlib?22:03
torgomaticmaybe...? what about the Jenkins stuff?22:03
notmynameya, because jenkins uses the global requirements (instead of what the project says)22:03
torgomaticall the check jobs passed, so they must have done something reasonable when processing the "import six" directive22:03
torgomaticoh22:03
notmynamekinda like it always uses the tip of master for client libs, even if the requirements have a version cap (ie the problems they had with swiftclient in grizzly)22:04
