Given that the producer-consumer notifications are not handled by
Glance, this is not a problem.  (Or, to be more precise, not a problem
for Glance.)  A producer can share an image with you multiple times, but
since the producer cannot change your member-status, it will remain in
'pending' (or 'rejected' if you've already rejected it).  So there is no
quota necessary for this operation.

The design goal for Image API v2 image sharing was to provide an
infrastructure for an "image marketplace" in an OpenStack cloud by (a)
making it easy for cloud end users to share images, and (b) making it
easy for end users not to be spammed by other end users taking advantage
of (a).  When v2 image sharing was introduced in the Grizzly release, we
did not want to dictate how producer-consumer communication would work
(because we had no idea how it would develop), so we left it up to
operators and end users to figure this out.

The advantage of email communication is that client side message
filtering is available for whatever client a particular cloud end-user
employs, and presumably that end-user knows how to manipulate the
filters without learning some new scheme (or, if the end-user doesn't
know, learning how to filter messages will apply beyond just image
sharing, which is a plus).

Also, email communication is just one way to handle producer-consumer
communication.  Some operators have adjusted their web interfaces so
that when an end-user looks at the list of images available, a
notification pops up if the end-user has any images that have been
shared with them and are still in "pending" status.  There are various
other creative things you can do using the normal API calls with regular
user credentials.

In brief, we figured that if an image marketplace evolved in a
particular cloud, producers and consumers would forge their own
relationships in whatever way made the most sense for their particular
use cases.  So we left producer-consumer communication out-of-band.

You could do this, but that would defeat the entire purpose of the
member statuses implementation, and hence I do not recommend it.  See
OSSN-0005 [1] for more about this issue.

Additionally, since the Ocata release, "community" images have been
available.  These do not have to be accepted by an end user (but they
also don't show up in the default image-list response).  Who can
"communitize" an image is governed by policy.

See [2] for a discussion of the various types of image sharing currently
available in the Image API v2.  The Image Service API v2 api-ref [3]
contains a brief discussion of image visibility and image sharing that
may also be useful.  Finally, the Glance Ocata release notes [4] have an
extensive discussion of image visibility.

>        Can you tell me more about this?Thank you very much!

The original design page on the wiki [5] has a list of 14 use cases we
wanted to address; looking through those will give you a better idea of
why we made the design choices we did.

Hope this helps!

brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] next python-glanceclient release

2018-10-19 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glancers,

I was looking at a Cinder patch [0] and it made me realize that we
should do a glanceclient release that includes the
multihash-download-verification [1] before the next scheduled Stein
release (which was to be 3.0.0, basically Rocky with v1 support removed;
see [2]).  I think it would be good to have the new verification change
released so other projects can consume the code and we can find out
sooner if it breaks anyone.  (I'm worried about allow_md5_fallback=False
[6], which I think is definitely the right thing for the CLI client, but
the discussion about allowing users to pick an os_hash_algo on Iain's
spec-lite [4] is making me worry about the effect that default value
could have on other services.)

Here are the options:
(1) backport [1] to stable/rocky and cut 2.12.1
(2) cut 2.13.0 from master and make it the first Stein glanceclient,
leaving legacy md5 checksum verification the only validation option in Rocky
(3) wait for 3.0.0 to include [1]
(4) change the default for allow_md5_fallback to True for the data()
function [6] (the CLI code already explicitly sets it and won't need to
be adjusted [5]) and then do (1) or (2) or (3)

Obviously, I don't like (3).  Not sure I like (4) either, but figured we
should at least think about it.

If we pick (1), we should merge the periodic tips job change [3] to
master and immediately backport it to stable/rocky before cutting the
release.  That way we won't have any unreleased patches sitting in
stable/rocky.

Let me know what you think.

cheers,
brian

Apologies for this delayed reply.

Yes, you found the correct docs.  They could probably use a revision to
eliminate some of the references to Pike and Queens, but I think the
content is accurate with respect to proper configuration of image import.
> Would a basic upgrade check be such that if glance-api.conf contains

I completely missed this question when I saw this email a few weeks ago.

Yes, if a Queens glance-api.conf has enable_image_import=False, then it
was disabled on purpose since the default in Queens was True.  Given the
Rocky defaults for import-related config (namely, all import_methods are
enabled), the operator may need to make some kind of adjustment.

As a side point, although the web-download import method is enabled by
default in Rocky, it has whitelist/blacklist configurability to restrict
what kind of URIs end-users may access.  By default, end users are only
able to access URIs using the http or https scheme on the standard ports.

Thanks for working on the upgrade-checker goal for Glance!

As indicated in the commit message on the above patch, 9.0.0 contains a
bug that's been fixed in oslo.messaging master, so I don't think there's
any question that 9.0.0 has to be blacklisted.

As far as the timing/content of 9.0.1, however, that may require further
discussion.

(In other words, I'm saying that when you say 'another solution', my
position is that we should take 'another' to mean 'additional', not
'different'.)

That scenario should work, unless you are running glance under uwsgi, in
which case the task engine (used to import the image) does not run.  You
can tell that's the problem if as an admin user you use the command 'glance
task-list'.  You should see a task of type 'api_image_import' with status
'pending'.  (You can do 'glance task-show ' to see the details of
the task.)

If you are using devstack, you can apply this patch before you call
stack.sh: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/545483/  .  It will allow
everything except Glance to run under uwsgi.

Since Queens, Glance has had a 'web-download' import method that takes a
URL [0].  It's enabled by default, but operators do have the ability to
turn it off.  (There's an API call to see what methods are enabled in a
particular cloud.)  Operators also have the ability to restrict what URLs
are acceptable [1], but that's probably a good thing.

In short, Glance does have the ability to do what you need since Queens,
but there's no guarantee that it will be available in all clouds and for
all URLs.  If you foresee that as a problem, it would be a good idea to get
together with the Glance team at the PTG to discuss this issue.  Please add
it as a topic to the Glance PTG planning etherpad [3] as soon as you can.

at the earliest.  Here are the backports that still require approval:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/555277/
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/555390/
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/555436/

and a cherry-pick of 50 when that's done.


cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] OSSN-0076 brainstorming session Friday 16 March

2018-03-15 Thread Brian Rosmaita
I'm working on a spec to alleviate OSSN-0076 that would follow up the
OSSN-0075 proposal [0], but have run into some problems.  It would be
helpful to lay them out and get some feedback.  I'll be in the
#openstack-glance channel at 16:30 UTC tomorrow (Friday) to discuss.
Will take less than 1/2 hour.

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the coming week (23 Feb - 1 March)

2018-02-22 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glancers,

RC-3 was released today [0] and we expect it to be the final release
candidate (unless someone finds a critical problem in the next 3
hours).

Priority for this week is preparing for the PTG.  If you can't attend,
Erno has posted a topic list [1] you can look at.  For topics without
specs, feel free to leave questions and comments for items you would
like to see addressed.  For topics with specs proposed, please read
and comment on the gerrit reviews.

Erno has also posted a rough schedule of what we'll be discussing when
[2].  We'll keep an eye on the #openstack-glance IRC channel during
the PTG, but your best bet for getting our attention is to put
comments on the etherpad [1].

The Glance meeting is cancelled on 1 March due to the PTG.

Best wishes for safe travels for those attending the PTG, and for
those at home ... stay safe out there!

cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the coming week (16 Feb - 21 Feb)

2018-02-16 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glancers,

(1)  Queens RC-2 was tagged Thursday (late Thursday night Pacific
time, but Thursday nonetheless).  A good place to concentrate testing
effort is on the URI filtering feature of the web-download import
method.  Remember that if you build a devstack, set WSGI_MODE=mod_wsgi
in your local.conf so that the import task will be processed.

(2)  We're aiming for RC-3 for Monday.  There will be some
documentation and releasenote update patches, and patches for the
glance-manage tool.  (And any image import bugs found during testing.)
 Keep an eye on the etherpad for stuff to review:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-rc1-patches
(yes, that's "rc1" in the url, I didn't want to waste a perfectly good etherpad)

(3)  Reminder: Erno will be making final decisions on what will happen
for Glance at the PTG on Monday morning.  So get your topic proposals
and votes for the stuff you want to discuss (or have discussed, if
unfortunately you won't be there) on the etherpad before 0900 UTC
Monday:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-rocky-ptg-planning

cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the coming week (9 Feb - 15 Feb)

2018-02-08 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Congratulations to Erno for his election as the Rocky PTL!  Erno is
taking over PTG planning, so don't forget to add ideas to the planning
etherpad:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-rocky-ptg-planning

The first Release Candidate for the Queens edition of Glance was
released today and the stable/queens branch was cut.

Our focus is still on Queens this week.  It would be a good idea to
give RC-1 a workout, paying particular attention to interoperable
image import and the glance-manage and glance-scrubber tools, which
underwent some refactoring and enhancements this cycle.

We'll continue to track the development toward RC-2 on this etherpad:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-rc1-patches

Add any bugs you find that are release critical to that etherpad so
that the core team can verify that they need to be backported to
stable/queens.

There will definitely be an RC-2, which will contain whatever we come
up with to address https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/1747869

But don't let that stop you from testing out RC-1!

cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] glance-manage db check feature needs reviews

2018-02-05 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glancers,

Please take a look at Bhagyashri's patch, which was given a FFE.

There's a slight deviation from the spec, so I need feedback about
whether this is acceptable (spoiler alert: I think it's OK).  So
please comment on that aspect of the patch even if you don't have time
at the moment to review the code thoroughly.  See my comment on PS11
for details.

[openstack-dev] [docs] how to update published pike docs

2018-01-31 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Docs people,

The glance install docs currently published on docs.o.o don't include
a correction we merged a while back, and I get a few bug reports filed
on this particular problem every week.  (It's great that people are
willing to file corrections, but the duplicates are really piling up!)
 Anyway, here's what's happening:

published docs:
https://docs.openstack.org/glance/pike/install/install-debian.html
(can't see the create db stuff -- you may need to look at the next
link first to see what I mean)

docs in github:
https://github.com/openstack/glance/blob/stable/pike/doc/source/install/install-debian.rst
(can see the create db stuff)

glance stable/pike in the repo:
http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/glance?h=stable%2Fpike
You can see stable/pike head is at the fix.

What do we need to do to get the docs.o.o to show the fixed docs?  Is
it something we need to do on the glance side, or does it have to be
fixed somewhere else?

thanks,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] Q-3 milestone released

2018-01-30 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Glance 16.0.0.0b3 was released today,  The tag was created at this commit:
http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/glance/commit/?id=631add1ba849eac67ecb36ea4c90b57a300a96fa
which is dated Thu, 18 Jan 2018 12:09:11 +

As you'll notice, that was about 2 weeks ago.  Which prompts the
question, why did we wait so long to release it.

Q: Why that commit?
A: It's the last commit when the glance functional gates jobs were
still working.

Q: Why didn't we release it 2 weeks ago?
A: The Q-3 release marks the feature freeze.  Any code committed after
that point should be either a release-critical bug or something with a
Feature Freeze Exception.  So you really don't want to release Q-3
early.

Q: What's the deal with the glance functional gate jobs?
A: There are two patches fixing them, but they have to go through the
'integrated' queue before they can merge, and we've had some bad luck
over the past few days ... they've made it to the top of the queue to
be processed when something bad happened and they had to start over.
They're being processed again right now (keep your fingers crossed).

Q: What about my commits that show up after
631add1ba849eac67ecb36ea4c90b57a300a96fa?
A: I will be sending out FFEs or marking the bugs for RC1, as appropriate.

Glance cores, please do not merge any patches until after
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/536630/ has merged.


thanks,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] PTL non-candidacy

2018-01-29 Thread Brian Rosmaita
I've been PTL of Glance through some rocky times, but have decided not
to stand for election for the Rocky cycle.  My plan is to stick
around, attend to my duties as a glance core contributor, and support
my successor in whatever way I can to make for a smooth transition.
After three consecutive cycles of me, it's time for some new ideas and
new approaches.

For anyone out there who hasn't contributed to Glance yet, the Glance
community is friendly and welcoming, and we've got a backlog of
"untargeted" specs ready for you to pick up.  Weekly meetings are
14:00 UTC on Thursdays in #openstack-meeting-4.

It's still in the gate.  Due to an unfortunate concatenation of
circumstances, today's gerrit restart occurred at the same time zuul
had passed this patch, and the success was not recorded, and it had to
be rechecked.  I believe it was moved up in the queue (thanks, infra
team!), but nonetheless it's been in the integrated queue for > 7
hours now, with zuul projecting completion in 58 minutes.

This one still depends on #2, so no action yet.

I'm still hopeful, though less hopeful than I was.  In any case, do
not approve any substantial changes until the functional tests have
been restored.

This patch got caught in the gerrit restart, too, and is being
re-processed (and it looks like it's going to fail, although not
because of glance ... the cross-glance-py* jobs were both successful.

On the plus side, we did release the python-glanceclient 2.9.1 today.

[openstack-dev] [glance] functional gate situation

2018-01-23 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Update on the last 24 hours:

(1) Sean's patch splitting the unit and functional tests in tox has merged.

(2) My patch to restore the functional test gate jobs ran into a
problem, namely, that one of the py35 tests suddenly begun failing in
the gate, and I haven't been able to reproduce it locally.  I started
looking into it, but this problem doesn't make any sense at all
(you'll see what I mean when you get a chance to look at it), so I put
up a patch to skip the failing test:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/536939/
It's passed the check and I ninja-approved it, so it's in the gate now.

(3) I edited the patch restoring the functional gate jobs to not run
the py27 tests at all (no sense wasting any time until we know they
have a chance of working).  At least we can run the py35 functional
tests (except for the one being skipped):
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/536630/
(I rebased it on the skip-test patch, it's in the check now.)

I'd prefer that nothing else be merged for glance until we get the
functional gate restored, which will hopefully happen sometime this
evening.  I'll keep an eye on (2) and (3) for the next few hours.

(4) With Sean's patch merged, I put up a patch to the requirements
repo reverting the change that made the cross-glance-py27 test
non-voting:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/536946/
That's been approved and is in the gate now.

So, we've got 2 outstanding bugs:
py27 functional test failures: https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/1744824
py35 functional test failure: https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/1745003

... and of course the regular stuff that was mentioned on the priority
email for this week:
http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2018-January/126353.html

[openstack-dev] [glance] py27 gate situation

2018-01-22 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Looks like something changed in a distro dependency over the weekend
and the glance py27 gate is failing.

I did a dist-upgrade in a new Ubuntu 16.04.3 vm, and was able to
reproduce the failures locally.  I'll continue looking, but it's EOD
where I am, so I wanted to make sure this info is available to the
people whose day is about to begin.  The failures are confined to the
py27 functional tests.  Unit tests pass, as do all the py35 tests.

The requirements team has merged a change making the cross-glance-py27
job non-voting:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/536082/
Thus, this issue isn't holding up requirements changes, but it's still
pretty urgent for us to figure out because I don't like us running
around naked with respect to requirements changes that could affect
glance running under py27.

Here's what I think we should do:

(1) Sean has had a patch up for a while separating out the unit tests
from the functional tests.  I think it's a good idea.  If you are
aware of a reason why they should NOT be separated, please comment on
the patch:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/474816/
I'd like to merge this soon so we can at least restore py27 unit tests
to the requirements gate.  We can always revert if it turns out that
there is a really good reason for not separating out the functional
tests.

(2) I've got a patch up that depends on Sean's patch and restores the
functional test gate jobs to the glance .zuul.yaml file (though it
makes the py27 functional tests non-voting):
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/536630/

(3) Continue to work on https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/1744824
to figure out why the py27 functional tests are failing.  As far as I
can tell, it looks like a distro package issue.


thanks,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] current priorities

2017-12-26 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Reminder: the Glance team has fewer than usual number of reviewers
available until after the new year.

The weekly Glance meeting is cancelled on Thursday, December 28.

Here's what we're working on between now and the next Glance meeting
on January 4, 2018:

* Glanceclient
We're aiming for a glanceclient release from the stable/pike branch on
January 2.  This depends on several patches:
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/529834/ - this is the backport of
the changes to the functional test jobs in master to stable/pike.  At
the moment, it has two patches to devstack stable/pike as
dependencies:
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/529878/ - backports some changes in
devstack/master needed to run the functional jobs under zuul3
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/530138/ - backports a fix from
devstack/master of another issue the functional test jobs have run
into

* Glance scrubber refactor
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/510449/

* Metadata injection
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/527635/
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/527907/

* hooks for import plugins (needed for metadata injection)
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/528754/


Happy holidays if you're celebrating, and happy new year.

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the week (12/01-12/07)

2017-12-01 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glancers,

As discussed at yesterday's Glance meeting, the priority for this week
is getting ready for the release of the Q-2 milestone, so:

1. the scrubber refactor
2. bugs scheduled for Q-2
3. enhanced tests for interoperable image import ("IIR")

I've put a list of patches and their current status on an etherpad:
  https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-Q2

Please keep it updated as you work through the items.  Several of the
bugs impact the same file, so there may be a need to rebase and
re-approve a few of these patches.

All changes must be approved by 12:00 UTC on Wednesday 6 December to
make it into the Q-2 milestone release.

cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the week (11/17-11/23)

2017-11-17 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glancers,

Due to the Thanksgiving holidays in the USA next week, we are
tentatively cancelling the meeting on November 23.  However, most of
our developers these days are outside the USA, so if someone has a
pressing issue and puts the same on the meeting agenda before the
usual deadline (24 hours before the meeting, so before 14:00 on
Wednesday, Nov 22), we will hold the meeting.  Erno has volunteered to
keep an eye on the agenda and send out an email to the dev list if the
November 23 meeting will be held.  (So the default setting is: no
meeting next week.)

Patches needing review:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/510449/
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/520945/
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/510424/
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/519514/
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/520644/

Except for the first patch, they're small changes that will be quick
to review and good to get merged.

cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the week (11/03 - 11/09)

2017-11-03 Thread Brian Rosmaita
As discussed at yesterday's Glance meeting, here's what's going on
this coming week:

- Due to Summit travel, vacation, and/or life stuff, core reviewers
will not be available except for emergencies.  This may affect the
timeliness of your patches being reviewed and/or merged.  Thank you
for your patience.

- I've put up a revised version of the spec to fix OSSN-0075 [0],
please look it over and leave comments.  It is slightly controversial
(Erno doesn't like it), but I think it's the correct way to fix this
issue.  We've already done an operators' survey, but I'll discuss it
at the Glance Operators Feedback session at the Summit/Forum to
hopefully widen the range of operators addressed.

- If you are aiming to do reviews, remember that bugs marked for the
Q-2 milestone and patches associated with features listed in the
Queens priorities [1] have priority.

- If you are looking for some coding to do, you can't go wrong by
picking up any unassigned bugs marked for the Q-2 milestone [2].

- There is an unassigned spec on the priorities list for the
glanceclient [3], you may care to look it over and perhaps pick it up
if it interests you.

- There will be no Glance meeting on Thursday, November 9.  We will
resume our usual weekly meeting cadence on Thursday, November 16.

cheers,
brian

This is the primary motivator.  Regardless of whether it makes sense
for the particular use of md5 in Glance or not, operators have to fill
in checkboxes in security compliance documentation that will be
consumed by increasingly less-well-informed people.  This way, rather
than try to justify Glance's use of md5 in 140 chars or less (assuming
there even is a "comment" field), operators can just answer "no" to
the question "does the system rely on md5" and be done with it.  I
think that's why the general reaction to this spec is a sigh of relief
that Glance is eliminating a dependency on md5.

Additionally, there's a use case of locating the same image in
different regions served by different Glance installations.  The
'checksum' property was indexed back in Folsom or Grizzly so that a
user could do an image-list call filtered by a particular checksum
value to find the same image they were using in one region in another
region.  But with an md5 checksum, we really can't recommend this
strategy of locating an image.

[openstack-dev] [api-wg][glance] call for comments on Glance spec for Queens

2017-09-28 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello API WG,

I've got a patch up for a proposal to fix OSSN-0075 by introducing a
new policy.  There are concerns that this will introduce an
interoperability problem in that an API call that works in one
OpenStack cloud may not work in other OpenStack clouds.  As author of
the spec, I think this is an OK trade-off to fix the security issue,
but not all members of the Glance community agree, so we're trying to
get some wider perspective.  We'd appreciate it if some API-WG members
could take a look and leave a comment:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/468179/

If you could respond by Tuesday 3 October, that would give us time to
get this worked out before the spec freeze (6 October).

thanks,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] upcoming spec-related deadlines

2017-09-20 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glance Community,

We came up with a fairly aggressive roadmap for Queens, particularly
given Glance's current personnel situation.  Thus, it's unlikely that
much more can be added, and thus, we can freeze spec proposals early
to eliminate distractions.  So here are the relevant deadlines:

28 September 2017: Glance Spec Proposal Freeze
All Glance, python-glanceclient, and glance_store specs must be
proposed as patches to the glance-specs repository by 13:00 UTC on
Thursday 28 September 2017 (that is, one hour before the weekly Glance
meeting begins).  While this only allows one week for review and
revisions before the Glance Spec Freeze, you can make sure you have
extra review time by submitting your patch early.

6 October 2017: Glance Spec Freeze
All Glance, python-glanceclient, and glance_store specs must be merged
into the glance-specs repository by 23:59 on Friday 6 October 2017.
This is a necessary but not sufficient condition for inclusion in the
Queens release.

cheers,
brian

Hi Belmiro,

Thanks for the feedback about the "hidden" property.  To push this
along, would you mind reading through this patch and the comments on
it and responding?  Or if you think it's close to a working proposal,
you could grab the text, revise, make Fei Long a co-author, and
propose it for approved/queens, and the community can continue the
discussion there.

cheers,

The role we see for searchlight is more on the image discovery end of
the problem. The context is that we were trying to think of a small
set of image metadata that could uniquely identify a series of images
(os_dist, os_version, local_version) so that it would be easy for end
users to discover the most recent revision with all the security
updates, etc.  For example, you might have:

initial release of public image: os_distro=MyOS, os_version=3.2, local_version=1
security update to package P1: os_distro=MyOS, os_version=3.2, local_version=2
security update to package P2: os_distro=MyOS, os_version=3.2, local_version=4

The image_id would be different on each of these, and the operator
would prefer that users boot from the most recent.  Suppose an
operator also offers a pre-built database image built on each of
these, and a pre-built LAMP stack built on each of these, etc.  Each
would have the same os_distro and os_version value, so we'd need
another field to distinguish them, maybe os_content (values: bare, db,
lamp).  But then with the database image, for a particular (os_distro,
os_version, os_content) tuple, there might be several different images
built for the popular versions of that DB, so we'd need another field
for that as well.  So ultimately it looks like you'd need to make a
complicated query across several image properties, and searchlight
would easily allow you to do that.

This still leaves us with the problem of making it simple to locate
the most recent version of each series of images, and that would be
where something like a 'hidden' property would come in.  It's been
proposed before, but was rejected, I think because it didn't cover
enough use cases.  But that was pre-searchlight, so introducing a
'hidden' field may be a good move now.  It would be interesting to
hear what you think about that.

[openstack-dev] [glance] Queens PTG: Thursday summary

2017-09-15 Thread Brian Rosmaita
For those who couldn't attend, here's a quick synopsis of what was
discussed yesterday.

Please consult the etherpad for each session for details.  Feel free
to put questions/comments on the etherpads, and then put an item on
the agenda for the weekly meeting on Thursday 21 September, and we'll
continue the discussion.


Complexity removal
--
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-complexity-removal

In terms of a complexity contribution barrier, everyone agreed that
the domain model is the largest factor.

We also agreed that simplifying it is not something that could happen
in the Queens cycle.  It's probably a two-cycle effort, one cycle to
ensure sufficient test coverage, and one cycle to refactor.  Given the
strategic planning session yesterday, we probably wouldn't want to
tackle this until after the registry is completely removed, which is
projected to happen in S.


Image lifecycle support
---
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-lifecycle

We sketched out several approaches, but trying to figure out a
solution that would work across different types of deployments and
various use cases gets complicated fast.  It would be better for
deployers to use Searchlight to configure complex queries that could
use all appropriate image metadata specified by the deployer.

For interoperability, deployers could use the common image properties
with suggested values on their public images.

We looked at two particular approaches that might help operators.  The
first would be introducing a kind of 'local_version' field that would
be auto-incremented by Glance, the idea being that an image-list query
that asked for the max value would yield the most recent version of
that image.  One problem, however, is what other metadata would be
used in the query, as there might be several versions of images with
the same os_distro and os_version properties (for example, the base
CentOS 7 image and the LAMP CentOS 7 image).

The second approach is introducing a 'hidden' property which would
cause the image to be hidden from any image list calls (except for the
image owner or glance admin).  This has been requested before, but
hasn't been enthusiastically endorsed because it leaves out several
use cases.  But combined with Searchlight (with an updated glance
plugin to understand the 'hidden' field), it might be the best
solution.


Should Glance be replaced?
--
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-glance-removal

The short answer is No.  Glance is the best way for deployments to
provide the Images API v2.  The project team has recently regained the
team:diverse-affiliation tag and is in a healthier state that it was
immediately after the downsizing craze of 2017 that happened early in
the Pike cycle.  The Glance project team is committed to the long term
stability of Glance.


glance_store

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-glance_store

We had a combined session with the Glare team, who also consume the
glance_store library, and worked out a list of items to improve the
library.



Multiple same store type support

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-multi-store

This has been requested by operators, and the interoperable image
import introduced in v2.6 of the Images API can be used to allow end
users to request what store to use.  The Glance design will be
consistent (to the largest extent possible) with Cinder (at least as
far as configuration goes, to make it easy on operators).



Queens Prioritization and Roadmapping
-
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-roadmap

See the etherpad for what we think we can get done.  I'll put up a
patch for the Queens priorities to the glance-specs repo before the
Glance meeting on Sept 21, and we can have a final discussion of any
outstanding issues.

[openstack-dev] [glance] Queens PTG: Wednesday summary

2017-09-14 Thread Brian Rosmaita
For those who couldn't attend, here's a quick synopsis of what was
discussed yesterday.

Please consult the etherpad for each session for details.  Feel free
to put questions/comments on the etherpads, and then put an item on
the agenda for the weekly meeting on Thursday 21 September, and we'll
continue the discussion.


Strategic plan for Glance (Q, R, S, T, U)
-
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-strategic-plan

No major surprises here, but some things to note:
- Q will be focused on completing interoperable image import and
making 2.6 the CURRENT API version
- The Images v1 API will be removed in Q (necessary condition is 2.6
becoming current, though)
- The Glance Registry API v1 will be removed in Q (necessary condition
is removal of Images v1 API)
- The Glance Registry API v2 will be DEPRECATED in Q and scheduled for
removal in S


Interoperable image import: where we are now and what testing needs to be added
---
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-iir-testing

Basically, we need a lot more tests.  Abhishek is going to run a
coverage analysis to give us a list of items to work on.  Everyone is
going to investigate what QA resources are available, and we'll
discuss how to divide up the work at the September 28 Glance meeting.


Can the v1 API be removed in Queens?

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-remove-v1-API

Yes, it can!  Assuming other goals are met, namely:
- implementing a safe 'copy-from' import-method (i.e., completing the
2.6 API and making it current).  ("Safe" copy-from addresses
OSSN-0078).
- removing any remaining Images API v1 tempest tests
- notify the Horizon team that the Images API v1 is scheduled for
removal in Queens

Plans for the python-glanceclient are:
- announce deprecation of Images v1 API support
- Q release of glanceclient will be the last one with v1 support
- Images API v1 support will be removed from the python-glanceclient in R
- notify OSC team about this timeline
- notify Shade team (though I don't think they use the glanceclient)


Community goal: policy-in-code: where we are

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-policy-in-code

The conclusion of the discussion is that the proposed advantages to
this effort don't appear to apply to Glance, but it's a bit late to
bring that up now.  The primary advantage will be documentation of the
policies, which will eat reviewer time, but it will be good to do
(though inconvenient given the size of the development team right
now).

A complicating factor is that Glance also allows the use of policies
to define property protections.  We'll have to improve the
documentation around this feature.


Remove show_image_locations config option
-
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-remove-sml-config-opt

The show_image_locations config option was deprecated in Newton and
scheduled for removal in Ocata.  It has become problematic to remove
this option because of OSSN-0065, as it gives operators a one-step way
to make sure the exploit described in that OSSN doesn't apply to their
installation (rather than properly configuring 3 related policies).

One suggestion is to rename the policy to something like
'insecure_location_access' (default value False) and then it will be a
bit more clear to operators what the config option allows.


Interoperable image import: next steps
--
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-iir-next-steps

See the etherpad for the list of to-do items for Queens.


Adding microversion support to the Glance APIs
--
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-microversions

Matt Treinish led an interesting discussion of why Glance should do
this.  We'll revisit this after the 2.6 API becomes CURRENT and the
Images API v1 has been removed.

[openstack-dev] [glance] confirming Abhishek Kekane for glance core

2017-09-13 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Back in June, I asked Abhishek Kekane to serve as glance core during
the Pike cycle [0].  His contributions exceeded all expectations.
Abhishek's careful reviews, bug fixes, patches, and general
contributions to the community were instrumental in Glance completing
the Pike release.  I'm happy to announce that Abhishek has agreed to
continue to serve the OpenStack community as a Glance core
contributor, and this note confirms his status as a "regular" member
of the Glance core group, with all the rights and privileges
pertaining thereto.

(I just want it to be completely clear before our Queens design
discussions begin this morning that there's nothing provisional about
Abhishek's glance core status -- he's a full-fledged glance core.)

Thanks again to Abhishek for his hard work during the Pike cycle, and
I look forward to working with him for many cycles to come.

cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [all] [glance] Glance at the Denver PTG

2017-09-08 Thread Brian Rosmaita
The Glance design discussions on Wednesday and Thursday will roughly
adhere to the schedule on this etherpad:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg

There's a place on the etherpad for Monday and Tuesday events; any
other teams having discussions that would benefit from having a Glance
representative there, feel free to put info on the etherpad.

The etherpad linked to above has links to etherpads for each session.
If you cannot attend the PTG but are interested in a session, please
put questions/comments on the appropriate etherpad.  We won't be
livecasting the sessions, but we will have IRC open to
#openstack-glance and #openstack-ptg, and we'll be taking live notes
on each session's etherpad.

Finally, we're aiming to have a Glance team dinner at 18:30 Denver
time on Tuesday (location TBA; will be posted on the etherpad linked
to above).  If you're interested in attending, please put your
name/irc nick on the etherpad so we can get a count.  Having
contributed to the Pike release of Glance is *not* a requirement for
having dinner with the Glance team! If you're interested in Glance, or
just want to meet the culprits responsible, feel free to join us.

Looking forward to a productive PTG!

brian

It depends on what you mean by "correct". If you're just describing
what's in the image, it works fine.  If you expect it to actually do
something, then you need to use the hw_ one.

My point is just that Glance went one way on this, Nova went a
different way, and users are left hanging.  My secondary point is that
it might be useful to catalog these things in the metadata definitions
service so that we all stay on the same page better.

Re: [openstack-dev] [glance] docs: architecture or hw_architecture

2017-08-23 Thread Brian Rosmaita
'architecture' is one of the "common image properties" that was
introduced in Folsom in an effort to standardize use of image
metadata.  It's not a mistake in the Glance docs, it's just that Nova
is looking for a differently named property.

Glance has had a metadata definitions service [0,1] since Juno.  It
provides a common API for vendors, admins, services, and users to
meaningfully define available key / value pair metadata that can be
used on different types of resources (images, artifacts, volumes,
flavors, aggregates, and other resources). A definition includes a
property’s key, its description, its constraints, and the resource
types to which it can be associated.  It's probably a better place to
store this kind of information than in documentation.  I think it's
under-utilized.

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for Wednesday, August 23

2017-08-22 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glancers,

Two new bugs.

1) https://launchpad.net/bugs/1712462  is release-critical; I have a patch
up for it:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/496477/  .  Erno and anyone else
knowledgeable about taskflow please look it over.

2) https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/1712463 is confirmed, but I'm not
sure whether it's a simple configuration fix or something more sinister.
Matt and anyone else knowledgeable about the running-glance-as-a-wsgi-app
work please take a look.

Please keep an eye on the etherpad in case anything else pops up:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-RC-critical

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities NOW!

2017-08-19 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Thanks to everyone who's been bugfixing and reviewing RC-2 changes this
week, particularly, Flavio, Abhishek, and Sean.

We didn't get everything merged into master that's RC-critical yesterday,
and while I guess we could have released an RC-2 anyway, that didn't seem
right knowing that there were critical fixes missing.  But I digress.

I hate to ask people to work on a weekend, but with the solar eclipse on
Monday and Ganesh Chaturthi on Friday, this coming week is likely to be a
short one.  If you can make some time, please review the patches listed on
the etherpad:
  https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-RC-critical

There's one new patch on the list, most of the rest already have one +2.

I'd like to get RC-2 released as early in the week as possible because the
gate situation will probably be pretty bad later in the week.

thanks,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for THURSDAY (17 aug) and FRIDAY (18 aug)

2017-08-17 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Glancers (and other people interested in the Pike release of Glance),

We need a RC-2, and the sooner we can release it, the better.  So we really
need a review push today and tomorrow.

Glance cores: please direct your attention to the patches listed on this
etherpad:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-RC-critical
They are mostly related to the new interoperable image import functionality.

Abhishek and I can only +2 each others work, and Erno is on a well-deserved
vacation, so we need some more eyes on those patches.  Even if you're not a
glance core, your careful review on these patches will be helpful.

thanks,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the coming week (08/11-08/17)

2017-08-11 Thread Brian Rosmaita
The first glance pike Release Candidate was released yesterday.

As discussed at yesterday's Glance meeting, we're going to definitely need
an RC-2.  Watch the etherpad for release-critical bugs/patches:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-RC-critical
More stuff will be added as the week progresses.  We want to have
everything merged so that we can release RC-2 on Wednesday 16 August.

The focus this week is on finding and fixing release-critical bugs.  Since
stable/pike has been cut, fixes will be made in master and cherry-picked
into stable/pike.  To keep the cherry-picks clean and easy, hold off on
merging any extraneous stuff into master this week.

There are two items to focus on in testing RC-1:
1  image import
2  trusts: see
https://review.openstack.org/#q,I233883dc6a37f282eb8e024c059c6a12ebb7e9f1,n,z
for what I'm talking about

Both of these are optional features, but it's important that they be
working correctly.

cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [api-wg][glance] introducing Images API v2.6

2017-08-06 Thread Brian Rosmaita
We've decided to introduce the MVP of the new image import functionality as
an EXPERIMENTAL version 2.6 of the Images API.  The CURRENT version will
remain at 2.5 (introduced in Ocata).

Why we're doing this and what this means for deployers/users is explained
in the releasenote on the patch that bumps the API version:

[openstack-dev] [election][glance] Queens PTL candidacy

2017-08-01 Thread Brian Rosmaita
I just submitted https://review.openstack.org/#/c/489834/ , which
announces my candidacy as Glance PTL for the Queens cycle.  This is
what it says:

Hello everyone,

I'm asking for the opportunity to continue to serve as the PTL of
Glance into the Queens cycle.

Things looked good for Glance at the start of Pike.  We had a strong
set of active cores, and discussed plans at the PTG for recruiting
more developers to the team through holding bugsmash events and
developing a more organized approach to triaging bugs to a point where
they could be worked on by developers not yet experienced in working
with Glance.  We were interested in attracting new talent because we
had recently lost our team:diverse-affiliation tag [0] which was a
warning that Glance had become too reliant on two companies.  And in
fact when those companies decided to change direction early in the
cycle, the impact on Glance was devastating.  However, due to the hard
work of those who remained and developers from the wider community who
pitched in [1], we were able to complete a revised list of priorities
for Pike and did not require any kind of drastic intervention (such as
going into maintenance mode, which looked like a real possibility in
April).  And, on the plus side, we'll definitely be receiving the
team:diverse-affiliation tag the next time it's assessed.

The point of mentioning the above history is that I'd like to continue
the reorganization and recruitment work we'd discussed at the
beginning of Pike, which should improve the project's health for the
Rocky PTL, who will most likely not be me.  Or at least there's no
reason why it should be me, as some of my goals for Queens are to help
grow the Glance community and help any Glancer who's interested
(hopefully, more than one) get themselves into a position to become an
effective PTL.

So that's the general nature of what I think we should focus on in
Queens.  There are a few specifics that I should probably mention:

* Image import continued -- thanks to Erno's hard work, a minimal
viable product of image import has landed in Pike.  There are a few
obvious Glance-side improvements we can make, but at Pike RC-1 time, I
plan to notify operators that the MVP of image import is available,
they should look it over, and give us feedback on what enhancements
are necessary, and think about how they can direct development
resources to Glance to make those changes happen.

* Rolling upgrades -- we released zero-downtime upgrades as an
experimental feature in Ocata, but further work planned for Pike
(primarily, in-gate testing of upgrades) did not happen.  It's
important to get this completed in Queens.

* Operator communication -- the popular operator surveys that we were
using to gather usage information about Glance were another casuality
of the personnel situation in Pike; I'd like to get those going again.

Additionally, there are some small worthwhile features among the
untargeted approved specs that would be nice to land, and new specs
are already showing up in the Queens directory.  And of course Glance
will participate in the Queens community goals.  We'll sort out the
priorities at the PTG [2].

Finally, there's been some discussion on the ML about whether Glance
has outlived its usefulness and should be replaced [3,4].  I'm willing
to discuss that at the PTG, but as you can tell from the fact that I
listed it last, I think there's still a role for Glance in the Queens
cycle.

Thanks for reading, and thanks for your consideration,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for this week (07/31 - 08/03)

2017-07-31 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Congratulations for getting P-3 tagged, and version 2.8.0 of the
glanceclient released!

As you know, we have one FFE for Pike, namely Erno's proposal to add
"copy-from" to the new image import process.  Erno is headed out for a
well-deserved vacation in a few days, so the priority for this week is
to review quickly any patches he gets up around copy-from.

Other than that, your usual dutiful attention to current patches and
bugfixes is appreciated.

Also, if you'd like to attend the PTG but aren't sure about funding,
the travel grant program is open until August 6.  Details are at the
bottom of the PTG planning etherpad:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-queens-ptg-planning

Have a good week!

[openstack-dev] [glance] Pike Feature Freeze Exception

2017-07-31 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glancers,

As you are aware, the Feature Freeze happened at the time of P-3
tagging.  As discussed at the Glance weekly meeting on 27 July 2017,
the Glance team has decided to recognize exactly one FFE, namely,
Erno's request to add a "copy-from" capability to the Pike image
import functionality.  Given Erno's vacation schedule, this will have
to land within the next day or two if it's going to land at all, so if
it does land, we'll have plenty of time to test and make sure the
feature is stable.

cheers,
brian

work being done at the moment is associated with image import.  Watch
the mailing list for a notice of any patches that need reviews.
- A patch that needs review for clarity and correctness is the
releasenote for support for running Glance as a WSGI application in a
web server:

[openstack-dev] [glance] nominating Abhishek Kekane for glance core

2017-06-16 Thread Brian Rosmaita
I'm nominating Abhishek Kekane (abhishekk on IRC) to be a Glance core
for the Pike cycle.  Abhishek has been around the Glance community for
a long time and is familiar with the architecture and design patterns
used in Glance and its related projects.  He's contributed code,
triaged bugs, provided bugfixes, and done quality reviews for Glance.

Abhishek has been proposed for Glance core before, but some members of
the community were concerned that he wasn't able to devote sufficient
time to Glance.  Given the current situation with the project,
however, it would be an enormous help to have someone as knowledgeable
about Glance as Abhishek to have +2 powers.  I discussed this with
Abhishek, he's aware that some in the community have that concern, and
he's agreed to be a core reviewer for the Pike cycle.  The community
can revisit his status early in Queens.

Now that I've written that down, that puts Abhishek in the same boat
as all core reviewers, i.e., their levels of participation and
commitment are assessed at the beginning of each cycle and adjustments
made.

In any case, I'd like to put Abhishek to work as soon as possible!  So
please reply to this message with comments or concerns before 23:59
UTC on Monday 19 June.  I'd like to confirm Abhishek as a core on
Tuesday 20 June.

thanks,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the coming week (06/16-06/22)

2017-06-15 Thread Brian Rosmaita
As discussed at today's Glance meeting, the priorities for this week are:

1  WSGI community goal
- 
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/glance+branch:master+topic:goal-deploy-api-in-wsgi
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/459451/

Just one priority, let's knock this out this week.  It will clear the
deck for next week, so we can focus on the image import refactor work
Erno's got underway.

In other news:

Thanks to Erno, the Glance Release Czar, for getting the P-2 milestone
release out on time!

[openstack-dev] [all][qa][glance] some recent tempest problems

2017-06-15 Thread Brian Rosmaita
This isn't a glance-specific problem though we've encountered it quite
a few times recently.

Briefly, we're gating on Tempest jobs that tempest itself does not
gate on.  This leads to a situation where new tests can be merged in
tempest, but wind up breaking our gate. We aren't claiming that the
added tests are bad or don't provide value; the problem is that we
have to drop everything and fix the gate.  This interrupts our current
work and forces us to prioritize bugs to fix based not on what makes
the most sense for the project given current priorities and resources,
but based on whatever we can do to get the gates un-blocked.

As we said earlier, this situation seems to be impacting multiple projects.

One solution for this is to change our gating so that we do not run
any Tempest jobs against Glance repositories that are not also gated
by Tempest.  That would in theory open a regression path, which is why
we haven't put up a patch yet.  Another way this could be addressed is
by the Tempest team changing the non-voting jobs causing this
situation into voting jobs, which would prevent such changes from
being merged in the first place.  The key issue here is that we need
to be able to prioritize bugs based on what's most important to each
project.

We want to be clear that we appreciate the work the Tempest team does.
We abhor bugs and want to squash them too.  The problem is just that
we're stretched pretty thin with resources right now, and being forced
to prioritize bug fixes that will get our gate un-blocked is
interfering with our ability to work on issues that may have a higher
impact on end users.

The point of this email is to find out whether anyone has a better
suggestion for how to handle this situation.

Thanks!

Re: [openstack-dev] [all][tc][glance] Glance needs help, it's getting critical

2017-06-12 Thread Brian Rosmaita
I take a week off and look at what happens ...

Sorry for top-posting, but I just have some general comments.  Mike
raises some good points, but I think it's too late in the cycle to
swap Glance out for Glare and expect everything to work properly.  (I
don't mean to imply anything about the quality of the Glare code base
by this, the concern is whether we can get sufficient testing and code
changes completed so that we could be sure that the substitution of
Glare + Images API would be unnoticed by deployers.  I just don't see
that as realistic given our current personnel situation).  I think for
Pike we need to work within the Glance code base and focus on the
limited set of priorities that we've more or less agreed on [0], and
seriously discuss Mike's proposal at the PTG.

I'm glad Mike brought this up now, because it would be a big change,
and as you can see in the previous messages in this thread, there are
pluses and minuses that need to be carefully considered. So I think
that discussing this issue could be constructive, if our goal is to
have a successful resolution at the next PTG.  However, I personally
don't think it's a good development strategy for the OpenStack Pike
release, which is what we need to concentrate on in the short term.

cheers,
brian

 On the other hand OpenStack users have been requesting for new features
 for
 a long time: I'm talking about mutistore support, versioning of images,
 image slicing (like in docker), validation and conversion of uploading
 data
 and so on. And I can say that it is impossible to implement them without
 breaking Glance. But all this stuff is already done in Glare (multistore
 support is implemented partially, because modifications of glance_store
 are
 required). And if we switch OpenStack to Glare users will get these
 features out of the box.

Having heard only affirmative responses, I've added Mikhail Fedosin to
the Glance core group, with all the rights and privileges pertaining

Welcome back to the Glance core team, Mike!

I'd also like to express my personal thanks to you for stepping up to

[openstack-dev] [glance] nominating Mike Fedosin for glance core

2017-05-25 Thread Brian Rosmaita
As you've no doubt read elsewhere on the ML, we've lost several glance
cores recently due to employment changes.  Luckily, Mike Fedosin
informed me at today's Glance weekly meeting that he will have time
for the next few months to devote some time to Glance reviewing.

For those who don't know Mike (mfedosin on IRC), he was a Glance core
for several years.  He provided a lot of notes that were used to write
the Glance architecture documentation that is so helpful to new
contributors, so he's extremely knowledgeable about the design
patterns used in Glance.

Most recently, Mike's been working on the Glare project, which has a
lot in common with Glance.  While Mike says he can't commit much time
to Glance development, he has proposed porting some of the Glare tests
over to Glance, which will certainly help with our code coverage, and
would be a helpful addition to Glance.

(Mike agreed at today's Glance meeting not to propose re-integrating
Glare into the Glance project until the Queens PTG (if at all), so I'm
not worried about that being a distraction during the Pike cycle when
we are so short-handed.)

I'd like to reinstate Mike as a Glance core contributor at the next
Glance weekly meeting.  Please reply to this message with any comments
or concerns before 23:59 UTC on Wednesday 31 May 2017.

Re: [openstack-dev] Affected by OSIC, Layoffs? Or want to help?

2017-04-23 Thread Brian Rosmaita
As an OSIC casualty, I want to thank Lauren for organizing this.  While
being hit by layoffs is extremely unpleasant, it's really awesome how
supportive the OpenStack community has been--reaching out with job
leads, offering general commiseration, as well as this practical effort
to get us to the Boston Summit.  I like working on OpenStack because we
are tackling challenging problems and producing quality software, but
also because OpenStack is a real community of developers working toward
a common goal.

cheers,
brian

PS: I should give my special thanks to Lauren, I think I may have used
up her frequent flyer miles.

[openstack-dev] [glance] virtual midcycle summary

2017-04-20 Thread Brian Rosmaita
Hello Glancers,

Due to technical difficulties, today's virtual midcycle was not
recorded.  So here's a summary of the discussion; refer to the etherpad
for each session for more details, and feel free to ask for
clarifications in #openstack-glance or here on the ML.

A link to the etherpads for each of the six sessions discussed below can
be found here:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-virtual-midcycle


1. Ideas for encouraging new contributors
=

We began with a quick discussion of the recent events that appear to
have wiped out a large number of Glance cores.  It was mentioned at the
TC meeting earlier this week that Glance might have to go into
status:maintenance-mode, but we'd like to try to avoid that.  While you
could look at maintenance mode as a signal that the project needs more
help, it could also be perceived by prospective new contributors as a
reason not to work on Glance, and hence would be counterproductive with
respect to attracting new people to work on Glance.  In any case, we
decided to wait until after the summit when we should have a better idea
of what kind of developer resources Glance has.

We need a statement somewhere (maybe on the standing meeting agenda)
explaining the weekly priority emails, in two respects:

(a) The priorities listed aren't the only things that get attention in
any given week; the idea is that core reviewers should make sure the
priority items have all been reviewed before looking at other patches.

(b) The priorities for the week are set at the weekly Glance meeting.
So the way to get an item on the list is to make sure it's brought up
when priorities are discussed at the meeting, which in turn implies that
you should be present at the weekly meeting.

A strategy we'll try out to encourage new contributors is to have a
second weekly meeting attended by all the core reviewers, who will be
available at that time to answer questions about patches.  If no one
shows up, we can just work through the backlog of patches.  (Another
idea is that this weekly meeting could alternate between reviews and
bugs.)  This will start after the summit.

Finally, Nikhil and Erno (and possibly Flavio) will be at the Glance
on-boarding session during lunch on Monday at the summit (12:45-2:00),
so hopefully we can pick up some new contributors there.


2. How the $*@# are we going to complete image import?
==

This went much differently than I expected.  You can see the proposal
for an "economy-class" import outlined on the session etherpad, but Erno
made a convincing argument that we should stick with the current plan
and that an MVP can be completed in Pike (given other appropriate
adjustments to the Pike priorities).  So that's what we'll do.  Pike
will ship with import "off" so that there's no impact on deployers who
aren't interested in it yet.


3. A proposal for dealing with OSSN-0075


We discussed a proposal to introduce a new policy that would restrict
the ability to specify an image_id at the time an image is created.
Objections were that it's a breaking change, and that not having this
feature widely available would be a pain point for hybrid cloud use cases.

What we settled on was to modify the glance-manage db purge function to
purge images marked deleted *except* for those with 'public' visibility,
since those are the images that would most likely be attacked by this
exploit.  They're also likely to be a minority of images, especially
since the advent of community images in Ocata.

I'll write up a spec lite so that we can get more discussion on this
idea, and make sure it's publicized to the operators' list and security
team to get a wide set of comments.


4. What's remaining for zero-downtime upgrades, and what's our plan to
make it happen?
===

The dev docs explaining how to write the migrations have been completed.

We need to review/revise the operator docs explaining how to perform a
zero-downtime database migration.

Asserting the tags requires having upgrade tests in the gate.  There's
not likely going to be any bandwidth for working on this in Pike, so we
won't worry about trying to assert the tags until Queens.


5. Last chance for Pike specs
=

We have some good specs proposed for Pike, but it's not clear anymore
that there will be anyone to work on them.  We'll add an 'untargeted'
directory to the specs repo for specs that have been approved but not
implemented (so that they'll all be in one place; now you have to crawl
each previous release to find the approved-but-not-implemented specs).

See the specs review etherpad for more details; each spec proposed for
Pike has an "action" associated with it that describes what we decided
today.  (I'll get patches up in the next day or so completing the
"actions" and moving the specs around in the repo.)

Hi Tony, just wanted to give you a glance update.

We need to backport a fix to stable/mitaka glance_store and cut a
release before it gets EOL'd.  That will cascade back onto a need to cut
a new glance in stable/mitaka with the updated requirement.  We should
be able to get this done this week.

cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the coming week (04/14-04/20)

2017-04-14 Thread Brian Rosmaita
I'm going to keep the list light this week.  Use your reviewing time as
you see fit and hopefully we can show some love to non-priority items
that have been sitting a while for glance_store and python-glanceclient.
 Additionally:

1. Spec freeze extension: as you saw in an earlier email, the spec
freeze will happen at 23:59 UTC on Wednesday 19 April.  So there's a
little more time to get your spec revised and resubmitted.  You can
track the specs under review on the etherpad:
  https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-specs-review

2. Glance virtual midcycle: due to popular demand, the Glance virtual
midcycle is scheduled for 14:00-17:00 UTC on Thursday 20 April.  Signup
and add discussion topics here:
  https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-virtual-midcycle

3. There will be no glance weekly meeting on 20 April (see previous item).


Have a productive week!

brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] virtual midcycle April 20

2017-04-13 Thread Brian Rosmaita
As discussed at today's Glance weekly meeting, we'll hold the virtual
midcycle next week on Thursday, April 20.

We'll keep it short, just 3 hours from 14:00-17:00 UTC.  Please plan
ahead and have breakfast/lunch/snacks/dinner ready at your workstation
so we can work straight through.

Agenda and signup for discussion topics:
  https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-virtual-midcycle

I'm proposing to use zoom for communications, but would like to test it
first.  If you're willing to help out, send me an email with a date and
time and I'll send you the link so we can try it out.  I'm especially
interested in testing connectivity with Europe and APAC.

cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] spec freeze extension

2017-04-13 Thread Brian Rosmaita
It has come to my attention that the deadline to have Glance-related
specs merged for Pike is in the middle of religious
holidays/institutional holidays in the EU.  Hence, the spec freeze is
extended to 23:59 UTC on Wednesday 19 April 2017.

Here's a link to the spec tracking etherpad:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-specs-review

Thank you, and enjoy any holidays you may be celebrating,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] reminder: spec freeze happens Friday!

2017-04-12 Thread Brian Rosmaita
All Glance, python-glanceclient, and glance_store specs must be merged
into the glance-specs repository by 23:59 on Friday 14 April 2017.

I've just updated the etherpad with the status of the various patches:
  https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/glance-pike-specs-review

If you're a glance core, please check whether specs you've reviewed have
been updated; if you're a spec proposer, please check to make sure
you've responded to revision requests.

After the spec freeze, I'll officially post the Pike priorities.  We
agreed on a preliminary list at the PTG [0], and I'll be completely
honest: I haven't seen anything proposed that will change the Glance
priorities for Pike.

So what does this mean for other specs accepted into Pike?  The glance
cores will do what they can to provide timely reviews, but keep in mind
that they're committed to reviewing the priorities first.  Other patches
will be reviewed as bandwidth allows.  (Hint: The best way to facilitate
getting your code looked at is to review other peoples' patches.)


cheers,
brian

[openstack-dev] [glance] priorities for the coming week (04/07-04/13)

2017-04-07 Thread Brian Rosmaita
First, thanks to everyone who coded and reviewed the items identified as
Pike milestone 1 priorities.  They were merged yesterday and Hemanth,
our release czar, proposed a patch to enable the release:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/454760/

Next, don't forget that the spec freeze is the end of the day UTC on
Friday 14 April.

Finally, in addition to keeping an eye on revised spec patches that need
reviews, the priority for the week is (of course) image import:
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/391442/
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/391441/
- https://review.openstack.org/#/c/443636/
