Couple of patches will be coming soon 14:08:35 mlavalle: and one of them is actually blocked by https://review.opendev.org/#/c/762434/ 14:08:41 right? 14:09:01 That's a third one 14:09:27 the API and DB patch for address groups in security group rules 14:09:33 I will check obondarev's comments there later today and will try also to check why it's still not working as it should 14:09:39 so hopefully it will be ready this week 14:09:41 Thanks! 14:10:37 any other updates? 14:11:41 ok 14:11:47 I have 2 quick updates 14:13:45 1. I closed BP related to the db retries as that's what we decided on the last drivers meeting 14:13:53 https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/handle-deadlocks-in-oslo-way 14:14:06 Hi 14:14:36 2. I was pinged today by xinranwang who asked me about review of https://review.opendev.org/#/c/742785/ 14:14:51 it is nova spec, but it has also some parts related to the neutron 14:14:58 * bcafarel notes to read last drivers' meeting log 14:14:58 that's at least what he told me 14:15:23 so, please add this spec to Your review list and check it 14:16:41 and that's basically all from my side regarding BPs 14:17:22 if there are no other updates, lets move on 14:17:31 #topic Community Goals 14:17:45 Migrate from oslo.rootwrap to oslo.privsep driven by ralonsoh 14:18:06 I started preparing some list of changes which we need to do here to accomplish that 14:18:12 I didn't finish it yet 14:18:22 but I have a question to all of You 14:18:36 I found in neutron tree module: neutron/agent/linux/xenapi_root_helper.py 14:18:59 my question is: do we still should keep it there? is it used by anyone? 14:19:13 I don't think we are doing any kind of testing of it really 14:19:18 it was removed in Nova: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/749309/, https://review.opendev.org/#/c/749304/ 14:19:27 thx ralonsoh 14:20:40 I think we should mark the conf options as deprecated and remove all the code 14:20:51 and in X, remove the conf options 14:20:58 +1 14:21:35 cleanup++ 14:22:06 +1 14:23:41 do You think that we should first send email to ML to ensure that nobody is using it really? 14:24:06 +1 14:24:49 I don't think so 14:24:54 that was sent 1 year ago 14:25:02 personally I think we can go by the due diligence nova would have done before deprecating their part 14:25:03 then Nova marked it as deprecated 14:25:09 in 2019 14:25:21 ok 14:25:31 great :) 14:25:37 any volunteer to do that? 14:25:42 I'm on it now 14:25:47 ralonsoh: thx a lot 14:26:13 any other updates regarding community goals? amotoki, ralonsoh? 14:26:24 no, thanks 14:26:36 no update this week 14:26:46 ok, lets move on then 14:26:52 #topic Bugs 14:27:19 lucasgomes was bug deputy: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2020-November/018782.html 14:27:36 I went through this list today 14:27:52 and I think there is couple of bugs which needs some attention 14:28:07 first of all, 2 bugs related to stable branches 14:28:09 https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1903531 - broken upgrade - we need fix it quickly or revert patch which broke it. 14:28:10 Launchpad bug 1903531 in neutron "Update of neutron-server breaks compatibility to previous neutron-agent version" [Critical,Confirmed] 14:28:31 we broke compatibility between agents and server with that backport :/ 14:28:34 which is very bad 14:28:51 and we should now either fix that in stable branches or revert patch which caused that 14:29:06 any opinions which one is better? 14:29:30 yup sorry I missed that "," in rpc change :/ 14:29:42 IMO, because we are changing the API content, we should revert the stable branch patches 14:29:44 bcafarel: yes, me too :/ 14:29:58 as it is a security fix by itself additional fix would be great though 14:30:46 and the worst thing is that we merged that just before Stein EM, so we can't now do new Stein release, right? 14:31:07 I think so... 14:31:26 transition patch is not merged yet hberaud had questions (lucky us) 14:31:43 https://review.opendev.org/#/c/762404/ 14:31:54 ok, so lets revert it asap and do quickly one more release of stein 14:32:03 so this will be fixed in last released version 14:32:13 are You ok with that? 14:32:28 so, are we going to fix the fix or revert it for Stein? 14:32:35 I'm not sure 14:32:51 ralonsoh: I would go with revert in all stable branches 14:32:59 Train, Stein, Rocky and Queens 14:33:04 ok 14:33:18 good for You? 14:33:21 perfect 14:33:39 ok, I will propose backports immediatelly 14:34:45 reverts done for all stable branches 14:34:56 where it was backported 14:35:54 ok, good that someone found it before EM :) 14:36:04 sure 14:36:11 lets move on to the next one 14:36:14 https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1903689 - stadium projects and neutron-lib issue 14:36:15 Launchpad bug 1903689 in neutron "[stable/ussuri] Functional job fails - AttributeError: module 'neutron_lib.constants' has no attribute 'DEVICE_OWNER_DISTRIBUTED'" [Medium,New] 14:36:22 bcafarel You are on it, right? 14:36:38 nice that we have the same list of bugs we wanted to talk about :) 14:36:51 :) 14:36:54 slaweq: looking into it yes, not sure yet how to fix it 14:37:08 it seems neutron is missing in u-c in ussuri and newer branches 14:38:31 also, a semi-related bug here, the sibling system does not work with UT tests py38 (seen in https://review.opendev.org/#/c/743487 ) 14:38:58 bcafarel: You mean here https://github.com/openstack/requirements/blob/stable/victoria/upper-constraints.txt right? 14:39:02 as that part is a bit voodoo/black magic to me, if some experts could check 14:39:29 slaweq: yes, train and before had a "neutron==xx" line 14:39:42 yes, I see 14:42:47 bcafarel: I see that this py38 job is failing due to this issue with neutron version 14:42:48 no? 14:43:23 yes error is same but py36/36 are working (siblings working correcly?) 14:43:24 bcafarel: it seems that this patch removed neutron from u-c file: https://review.opendev.org/553030 14:44:15 lajoskatona looks like a good suspect! 14:44:23 no, it is from rocky perhaps, but not sure 14:44:48 but anyway, it seems that this happened in history :-) 14:45:39 but it is later in e.g. train 14:47:00 ok, bcafarel I hope You will take care of it 14:47:11 if You will need any help, please ping me 14:47:29 will do! 14:47:34 thx 14:47:36 ok, lets move on 14:47:41 next is CI related bug 14:47:43 https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1903985 14:47:45 Launchpad bug 1903985 in neutron "[functional] Timeouts during setting link attributes in the namepaces" [High,Confirmed] 14:48:05 we see it more and more IMO recently 14:48:36 so we need someone who will maybe take a look at those logs and try to disable logging of some of errors in stdout/stderr 14:49:43 if anyone have any cycles, that would be great 14:49:50 this problem is specific to port.link.set_up() 14:50:03 I think that could be a problem with the device created 14:50:08 ahh, right ralonsoh 14:50:10 sorry 14:50:15 I was thinking about different issue 14:50:20 true 14:50:32 but this also happens from time to time recently :) 14:50:33 it uses privileged.set_link_attribute 14:50:35 sure 14:50:40 I'll check it today 14:50:47 thx 14:51:07 and the last one which I wanted to mention today is 14:51:10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1904041 14:51:11 Launchpad bug 1904041 in neutron "Victoria neutron-db-sync fails with I38991de2b4_source_and_destination_ip_prefix_neutron_metering_rule.py" [Undecided,New] 14:51:18 which is already initially checked by ralonsoh 14:51:21 thx for that 14:51:32 I can't reproduce this issue 14:51:38 even modifying the DB manually 14:51:43 it also works fine in our CI 14:51:54 on every run db migration script is run, right? 14:52:00 yes 14:52:34 ok, lets wait for some more informations and we will see 14:53:04 and that are all bugs which I wanted to raise here from lucasgomes' report 14:53:15 this week our bug deputy is jlibosva 14:53:24 I already contacted him to remind it 14:53:32 and next week is obondarev's turn 14:53:50 for next week I will prepare new round 14:54:15 + 14:54:19 * bcafarel gets ready 14:54:34 with that I'm done for today 14:54:44 do You have anything else You want to discuss with the team? 14:54:50 not from e 14:54:53 me* 14:55:18 all good, both bugs I wanted to talk about were mentioned 14:55:25 I have one thing 14:55:34 njohnston: sure 14:55:49 with the work getting started with the Secure RBAC popup team, do we have to think about the impact for stadium projects at this point? 14:56:53 what is exactly Secure RBAC popup team? I think I missed something 14:57:11 #link http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2020-November/018800.html 14:57:59 it is mostly about testing, or am I wrong? 14:58:38 njohnston: thx for raising this up, I will read this email as I missed it earlier 14:58:52 and also I think we need amotoki to be involved in that 14:58:52 It is, but for some roles that don't correspond to roles we have in traditional policies we may find some gaps or bugs 14:59:40 +1 14:59:46 I just talked with gmann and am trying to catch up the discussion in the policy meeting 14:59:59 amotoki: great, thx 15:00:10 but we need to explore how we can cover policy testing in our repo 15:00:11 so lets get back to this on our next meeting 15:01:07 ok, we are out of time now 15:01:13 o/ 15:01:15 thx for attending the meeting 15:01:17 o/ 15:01:18 o/ 15:01:19 o/ thanks 15:01:19 bye 15:01:20 o/ 15:01:20 #endmeeting
