Hi, Referring to the Jenkins failure logs on https://review.openstack.org/#/c/32549/3, Log at http://logs.openstack.org/32549/3/check/gate-nova-python27/25158/console.html
The command that the test tried to execute using nova's rootwrap was: COMMAND=/home/jenkins/workspace/gate-nova-python27/.tox/py27/bin/nova-rootwrap /etc/nova/rootwrap.conf rm /tmp/tmp.WVIZziaxuv/tmp_2n7x0/tmpbuRC0e/instance-fake.log I am not sure if the CI infrastructure will allow this as it is attempting to perform 'rm' operation as a root user which is unsafe. But the test above fails. Also, some thoughts hit me by relooking at the patch: log_file_path = '%s/%s.log' % (CONF.libvirt_log_path, instance_name) Assuming this libvirt_log_path = /var/log/libvirt , and as /var/log is owned by 'root' user, then in the utils.execute, run_as_root=True is acceptable. If the libvirt_log_path is configured something else, say /opt/data/logs/xyz, which does not require root access to perform 'rm', then we don't need 'run_as_root' as True. As mentioned above, in compute filter adding '/bin/rm' with root privilege in the code is unsafe if some wrong tests are added to Jenkins, they might end up doing 'rm' on another directory as a root user. Thoughts on how this issue be addressed in CI, or code?
