21:03:43 <markmcclain> salv-orlando was able to isolate the kernel bug that has been causing our tests to fail.
21:04:14 <markmcclain> Salvatore spent a lot of time working to isolate it.  Huge Thank you to him
21:04:17 * pcm claping
21:04:22 <mestery> Yay salv-orlando!
21:04:33 <beagles> \o/
21:04:33 <nati_ueno> great job
21:04:34 <mlavalle> Yay!
21:04:36 <marun> thank you!
21:04:38 <SumitNaiksatam> salv-orlando: great work!
21:04:43 <ivar-lazzaro> thanks!
21:04:54 <Sukhdev> salv-orlando: bravo!!
21:05:04 <markmcclain> we're still not out of the woods yet as our workaround doesn't always work
21:05:09 <shivh> thanks salv-orlando
21:05:09 <salv-orlando> thanks I'm humbled
21:05:22 <emagana> salv-orlando: beers for you!
21:05:36 <salv-orlando> indeed, we're still pretty much where we were last week. Even worse perhaps.
21:05:52 <markmcclain> we'll be working with the Infra, QA, and Nova teams to get a workaround that is acceptable to everyone
21:06:41 <marun> I think we need lifeless's patch to merge so that the metadata service can be used while they work on it: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/70549/
21:06:58 <salv-orlando> markmcclain: my understanding is that failure rate for patches is 100% because some job will always try to do the guestfs mount
21:07:13 <markmcclain> salv-orlando: correct
21:07:22 <lifeless> nova is going to disable file injection by default soon anyway - I think file injection tests should be a new, separate job
21:07:45 <lifeless> as the default will have it off, we want to test that the default works :)
21:07:46 <markmcclain> lifeless: I agree.. we have 2 different viable alternatives to key injection
21:08:00 <edhall> salv-orlando, markmcclain: Great! What would be the best place to look for more info on the issue?
21:08:05 <salv-orlando> 2? one being metadata.. and the other? config-drive?
21:08:20 <lifeless> salv-orlando: yes
21:08:32 <lifeless> 3 technically - can always upload a new VM image with stuff pre-baked in it
21:08:47 <markmcclain> edhall: the actual kernel bug info is here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1273386
21:09:00 <salv-orlando> edhall: for bug 1273386, it's all in the bug report comments. I still need to provide crash dump info and a repro script independent from openstack for the ubuntu-kernel guys
21:09:08 <markmcclain> the work around discussion should be in the channel logs from last Thursday
21:09:22 <edhall> markmcclain, thanks, I've bookmarked it
21:10:10 <salv-orlando> edhall: bottom line is that the issue in unlikely to affect production systems, unless you deploy the compute service on the same host as the network services such as dhcp agent and l3 agent
21:10:11 <markmcclain> Ok so we still need to wait until workaround is in place before we start approving patches again
21:10:30 <markmcclain> I'll send out an email to left everyone know when +As will succeed again
21:11:04 <salv-orlando> but even then don't forget bug 1253896 and 1272012 are still lurking, so please let the patches for those bugs go first
21:11:32 <edhall> salv-orlando, thanks; that might affect our dev environment so I'll pass that on
21:11:39 <markmcclain> correct.. I'll get a few critical patches merged before I signal the all clear to start approvals
21:11:59 <salv-orlando> edhall: the exact conditions you have to met to be affected are in one of the last comments on the bug
21:12:41 <markmcclain> #info Feature proposal deadline is Feb 18th
21:13:01 <edhall> got it; thanks agai!
21:13:29 <markmcclain> Anything code for blueprints must be proposed by the end of the day on Feb 18th.  This will give the team time to review before the feature freeze
21:13:52 <markmcclain> #link https://launchpad.net/neutron/+milestone/icehouse-3
21:14:18 <markmcclain> We've have lots of items proposed for Icehouse-3.  If you know something is not going to make, please PM me and we'll get it scheduled for Juno
21:14:27 <markmcclain> #topic Bugs
21:14:50 <markmcclain> We've spent time talking about the kernel bug.  Are there any bugs the team needs to discuss this week?
21:15:50 <markmcclain> #topic Tempest
21:15:57 <mlavalle> Hi
21:16:09 <markmcclain> mlavalle: has to leave at the bottom of the hour so moving his report up
21:16:22 <mlavalle> I want to report to the team that api tests development has continued at a good pace
21:16:28 <markmcclain> great
21:16:42 <mlavalle> we have around 10 people actively pushing code
21:16:51 <mlavalle> so I have been doing a lot of reviews
21:17:07 <mlavalle> Thanks to all the people contributing to this effort
21:17:30 <mlavalle> I am keeping a list of patchstes in review in the Neutron meeting agenda
21:17:41 <markmcclain> mlavalle: thanks for keeping it updated
21:17:57 <mlavalle> I encourage the core devs to take a look and help us with reviews
21:18:00 <emagana> mlavalle: good job! we need to get more reviewers from tempest core team
21:18:38 <mlavalle> the tempest core reviewers are hesitant to start merging tests until the problems in the gate with Neutron start imp[roving
21:18:46 <markmcclain> mlavalle: once we get past this kernel bug, I expect we'll have more core neutron cycles to look at the tempest tests
21:18:51 <salv-orlando> mlavalle: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/70351/ is not in the list, but seems to duplicate another patch
21:19:08 <salv-orlando> https://review.openstack.org/#/c/63999/2
21:19:17 <mlavalle> salv-orlando: Thanks
21:19:30 <markmcclain> mlavalle: I think that is a good stance by the tempest team… we need a good baseline before we start merging new tests
21:19:31 <salv-orlando> mlavalle: that was  just because I felt the need to be pedant. Sorry I could not resist it.
21:19:46 <mlavalle> that's all I have
21:20:09 <markmcclain> mlavalle: thanks for updating
21:20:27 <markmcclain> #topic Docs
21:20:29 <markmcclain> emagana: hi
21:20:37 <emagana> markmcclain: hello!
21:21:07 <emagana> I updated the wiki
21:21:14 <markmcclain> thanks for keeping it current
21:21:28 <emagana> there is a new proposal to create a Create Stand-alone OpenStack Networking Guide
21:21:54 <markmcclain> ok so this undoing the combination effort we started a few weeks back?
21:21:57 <emagana> #link https://blueprints.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+spec/create-networking-guide
21:22:36 <emagana> but it will collect information from cloud admin guide and install guide
21:22:45 <markmcclain> ok
21:22:52 <emagana> the idea is to have anew book for networking deatils
21:23:01 <markmcclain> ah cool
21:23:04 <emagana> it will also help to review and update the other two!
21:23:32 <emagana> Nick, Matt, Phil and I come together in a hang out meeting to plan it
21:23:51 <emagana> a wiki with the propose index will be available
21:24:22 <markmcclain> nice
21:24:26 <emagana> that all I nave from my side
21:24:33 <salv-orlando> might I ask where we are with developer docs? jaypipes started this effort (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/64205/) and I would like to see more community members picking it up
21:24:35 <markmcclain> Any docs questions?
21:25:23 <sc68cal> salv-orlando: I'll chip in
21:25:23 <emagana> salv-orlando: I could bring this topic into the Docs meeting
21:25:28 <markmcclain> salv-orlando: good question… might make sense to start tracking dev docs initative
21:25:40 <sc68cal> I actually registered a BP on friday for this
21:25:46 <markmcclain> onboarding new folks is something we need to make easier
21:26:21 <sc68cal> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/developer-documentation
21:26:50 <jaypipes> salv-orlando: I would like to work on more docs. sorry for delay. should be able to work on more this week and next.
21:27:00 <sc68cal> I have two devs that I'm in the process of onboarding - so I'll reach out to jaypipes and work with him
21:27:11 <jaypipes> sc68cal: sounds good sean!
21:27:15 <markmcclain> sc68cal, jaypipes: great
21:27:35 <emagana> sc68cal and jaypipes: please add the details in the wiki
21:27:48 <markmcclain> #topic nova-parity
21:27:50 <markmcclain> beagles: hi
21:27:54 <sc68cal> emagana: will do
21:27:56 <beagles> hi!
21:28:53 <beagles> there was a bit of progress last week on getting the bugs for unimplemented nova-net api methods. That means some of the bugs that were opened on that will be closed (yay!)
21:29:23 <markmcclain> aweseome
21:29:42 <beagles> the details of some discussions regarding the remaing high level gaps were captured in a wiki... https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/NovaNeutronGapHighlights
21:30:28 <beagles> it is *high level* so don't go looking expecting lots of technical details :) chances are the  high level will be enough if its a topic you are interested in
21:30:33 <markmcclain> beagles: thanks for creating it
21:30:52 <beagles> it is perhaps encouraging that it is really short :)
21:31:02 <markmcclain> it does touch on some rough spots we need to clean up
21:31:50 <beagles> for those of you that may have missed the ML thread, there was a well-reasoned email thread on the deprecating nova network in Icehouse... worthwhile read. I captured the link in the minutes
21:32:42 <markmcclain> russellb and I had a good conversation before that thread was started
21:33:08 <markmcclain> I was focused on kernel bug last week, but will be adding in more information from Neutron side this evening
21:33:17 * beagles nods
21:34:13 <markmcclain> Anything else to add?
21:34:22 <beagles> the last item for now would be the pending reviews on the nova front... I suspect much energy was directed elsewhere last week so perhaps if/when things calm down with the gate these will get closure
21:34:31 <beagles> and that .. is that
21:34:47 <markmcclain> For those that missed the thread

21:34:54 <markmcclain> beagles: thanks for the update
21:35:06 <markmcclain> #topic L3
21:35:09 <markmcclain> carl_baldwin: hi
21:35:18 <carl_baldwin> markmcclain: hi
21:35:26 <carl_baldwin> I’m currently considering time slots for a team meeting.  In the mean time, I encourage those who are interested to attend the DVR sub team meeting an Wednesdays run by Swami.  I will be attending regularly.
21:35:33 <carl_baldwin> #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/Neutron-L3-Subteam
21:35:43 <carl_baldwin> Recent meetings have shown good progress and collaboration with DVR and HA routers.
21:35:58 <markmcclain> great
21:36:00 <carl_baldwin> Speaking of DVR, Swami asked me to “pass on the information that we will be having a ‘F2F meeting’ at the Bay in HP Palo Alto office to finalize the DVR options.  I plan to attend virtually.
21:36:18 <carl_baldwin> “Venue: HP Plato Alto office
21:36:19 <carl_baldwin> “Date and Time: Feb 13th 11.a.m to 1p.m.
21:36:19 <carl_baldwin> “Lunch will be provided”
21:36:23 <carl_baldwin> Swami will update the ML with information about the virtual meeting room and dial in.  If interested, please email him.
21:36:49 <markmcclain> great
21:36:54 <markmcclain> Anything else?
21:36:54 <carl_baldwin> I'll be attending virtually.  That’s all I have.
21:36:56 <salv-orlando> "Plato Alto" being a relative of the greek philosopher? ;)
21:37:10 <salv-orlando> sorry for the stupid joke
21:37:15 <markmcclain> haha
21:37:17 <carl_baldwin> Oops, copy/pasted directly from his email.
21:37:20 <markmcclain> #topic IPv6
21:37:22 <carl_baldwin> That should be Palo Alto.
21:37:37 <markmcclain> sc68cal: hi
21:37:47 <sc68cal> hello
21:38:18 <sc68cal> We've got some new patches for review - adding the new attributes to the API, and then a patch that changes the behavior of dnsmasq when those attribtes are set
21:38:35 <sc68cal> they're still a bit rough around the edges currently, we need to get the second patch to be based on top of the first
21:38:36 <markmcclain> ok.. I've only briefly looked at them
21:38:59 <sc68cal> I expect tomorrow's meeting will go in depth into them
21:39:01 <markmcclain> yeah that would be nice so that gate properly handles them
21:39:04 <markmcclain> great
21:39:21 <markmcclain> Anything else?
21:39:26 <sc68cal> the Nova hairpin patch has been fixed up to avoid the race bug
21:39:34 <sc68cal> we're adding ... yet another flag to nova.conf however
21:39:45 <sc68cal> but the good news is someone requested that, and it was a wishlist item
21:39:51 <sc68cal> so two birds with one stone
21:39:55 <markmcclain> ah nice
21:40:02 <sc68cal> that's it for me
21:40:25 <salv-orlando> well neutron and nova conf now have more flags than the united nations headquarters in NYC.
21:40:27 <markmcclain> ok.. would be nice to have a few members of the neutron team to look at https://review.openstack.org/#/c/56381/
21:40:29 * salv-orlando ducks and runs
21:40:36 <sc68cal> salv-orlando: :)
21:41:10 <markmcclain> salv-orlando: haha
21:41:21 <markmcclain> sc68cal: thanks for the update
21:41:23 <markmcclain> #topic ML2
21:41:32 <markmcclain> mestery & rkukura: hi
21:42:01 <rkukura> not sure if mestery is around
21:42:17 <rkukura> quite a few BPs in the works for icehouse
21:42:36 <rkukura> most for new drivers, but a couple with impact on the plugin itself
21:43:05 <sc68cal> oh my
21:43:26 * mestery is having network problems
21:43:34 * rkukura is too
21:43:42 <markmcclain> rkukura: ok please PM me to make sure I've got the right priority on the blueprints that impact all drivers
21:43:44 <dkehn> not me
21:43:56 <nati_ueno> I think freenode isn't stable today.. Is this only for me?
21:44:08 <markmcclain> looks like we had a netsplit again
21:44:09 <mestery> I've also started working on tightening up some unit test coverage
21:44:19 <rkukura> Would be good to get some discussion/feedback on http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-January/025812.html
21:44:30 <markmcclain> nati_ueno: it's been going on since before I started this mornign
21:44:38 <sc68cal> nati_ueno: +1
21:44:43 <nati_ueno> markmcclain: gotcha
21:45:47 <rkukura> Would also like to know if progress is being made on https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/ml2-deprecated-plugin-migration
21:47:04 <markmcclain> the migration is really important as we cannot remove the OVS and Bridge plugins until we have it
21:47:25 <mestery> +1 to that markmcclain
21:48:07 <salv-orlando> anybody has received an update from the assignee?
21:48:37 <rkukura> I've emailed Prakash and he seems to expect to get it done, but I'd like to see if he needs any help
21:49:02 <rkukura> Anyone know his nic?
21:49:22 <markmcclain> rkukura: might be good encourage the code to be posted and regular WIP updates
21:49:35 <markmcclain> that way we can start testing early versions of the migration
21:49:53 <rkukura> I'll followup his email, and hopefully we'll know more for next Monday
21:50:15 <markmcclain> Anything else for ML2?
21:50:37 <rkukura> not from me
21:50:42 <markmcclain> Thanks for the update
21:50:48 <markmcclain> #topic Group Policy
21:51:08 <markmcclain> This is a new item.  The team has been regularly meeting and I wanted to give an opportunity to share back with the team
21:51:12 <markmcclain> mestery: hi
21:51:14 <mestery> Hi
21:51:22 <mestery> Thanks markcmcclain
21:51:40 <banix> Have started coding for a PoC
21:51:41 <mestery> So we have been meeting very week since Hong Kong
21:51:57 <mestery> Yes as Vanir says we are entering PoC stage
21:52:06 <mestery> banix sorry
21:52:19 <mestery> Please see our Meeting page for more details
21:52:28 <mestery> But we hope to get this into Juno
21:52:39 <markmcclain> great
21:52:42 <mestery> We will be scheduling design summit sessions for Atlanta
21:52:49 <mestery> Thanks markmcclain
21:53:28 <markmcclain> mestery: thanks for sharing
21:53:34 <markmcclain> #topic Open Discussion
21:53:40 <salv-orlando> mestery: planning for Juno is a considerate decision, in my opinion. It will also give us a chance to synchronise this effort with api framework changes.
21:53:44 <nati_ueno> markmcclain: let's me update vpn brifly
21:53:58 <markmcclain> nati_ueno: go ahead
21:54:02 <mestery> Thanks salv-orlando, good point!
21:54:25 <nati_ueno> markmcclain: Thanks. I updated wiki. We have api wiki doc. https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Neutron/VPNaaS/SSLVPN  client patch https://review.openstack.org/#/c/70254/ agent code comming soon
21:54:28 <Sukhdev> mestery: can you add a link to the meeting agenda page - for the policy group meeting discussions, that is….
21:54:31 <nati_ueno> markmcclain: That's all.
21:55:04 <pcm> Wondering if there is any interest in an IRC about vendor drivers for L3 services (discussing validation, client feedback, error reporting/handling, persistence)?
21:55:05 <mestery> Sukhdev: yes I will do that I am mobile from iOS at the moment :)
21:55:19 <markmcclain> nati_ueno: thanks for the update
21:55:37 <markmcclain> Would any of the other sub teams like to update?
21:55:42 <banix> Group policy: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/Neutron_Group_Policy
21:55:55 <SumitNaiksatam> markmcclain: for FWaaS, SridarK put significant effort in testing to check if we are ready for enabling FWaaS in the gate
21:56:06 <enikanorov__> no major updates from lbaas
21:56:15 <markmcclain> SumitNaiksatam: great
21:56:17 <SumitNaiksatam> markmcclain: results of his testing have posted at: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Quantum/FWaaS/Testing
21:56:29 <banix> sukhdev: pls see the link posted above.
21:56:36 <markmcclain> we'll probably want to a few days after we get the gate going again before we enable
21:56:39 <SumitNaiksatam> SridarK: is also here, so he can chip in as well
21:56:42 <markmcclain> just so we can get a good baseline
21:56:48 <SumitNaiksatam> markmcclain: i totally understand
21:56:51 <Sukhdev> banix: thanks
21:56:56 <SridarK> Running thru tempest API tests with FwaaS enabled, comparison with baseline looks good as well.
21:57:02 <SumitNaiksatam> markmcclain: just want to convey that we are prepared
21:57:15 <SumitNaiksatam> markmcclain: you can make a call whenever
21:57:19 <markmcclain> SridarK: good
21:57:21 <markmcclain> SumitNaiksatam: thanks for being ready
21:57:47 <markmcclain> enikanorov__: ok thanks for letting me know
21:57:56 <markmcclain> Any other items for this week?
21:58:50 <pcm> Wondering if any interest in L3 services discussions, regarding vendor impl.?
21:58:59 <SridarK> pcm: +1
21:59:24 <pcm> Wanted to discuss handling for persistence, validation, client feedback, err handling, etc.
21:59:44 <pcm> maybe in a manner that will be consistent across services and between vendor and ref impl?
21:59:56 <markmcclain> pcm: might be good to post a time and have everyone discuss in #openstack-neutron
22:00:09 <markmcclain> the channel is logged for those that can't make the discussion
22:00:31 <markmcclain> Ok we're at time. Thanks to everyone for stopping in this week.  I'll send an update to the mailing list once we get the gate fixes in place and tested.
22:00:35 <pcm> OK. didn't know if should have something in meeting channel.
22:00:48 <banix> thanks
22:00:58 <pcm> Those still around, what time/date would be good to meet?
22:01:09 <markmcclain> pcm: It's good solicit interest here
22:01:09 <markmcclain> #endmeeting
