Re: [openstack-dev] Announce of Rally - benchmarking system for OpenStack
There's several issues involved in doing automated regression checking for benchmarks: - You need a platform which is stable. Right now all our CI runs on virtualized instances, and I don't think there's any particular guarantee it'll be the same underlying hardware, further virtualized systems tend to be very noisy and not give you the stability you need. - You need your benchmarks to be very high precision, if you really want to rule out regressions of more than N% without a lot of false positives. - You need more than just checks on individual builds, you need long term trend checking - 100 1% regressions are worse than a single 50% regression.

Longer version: I'm getting worried that, even after Havana b3 is released, we are still getting some new Python modules added to the requirements repository. In Debian, every new package has to go through a review process, called the NEW queue. FTP masters review both the freeness of a package, the exactitude of debian/copyright, and the general packaging quality. Unfortunately, this review process can take a lot of time. At best, it is processed within a week (which is what happened for more than a year before November 2012), but in the worse case, it could take up to a month or 2 (this was the case up to the end of last summer, thanks to new manpower in the FTP team). So I need to point it out: adding new Python modules at the end of a release adds more risk that I will be missing some Python modules within the Debian archive when Havana will be released. I wouldn't have to write this mail if this was only a single module or something. Though that's not the case, we have 4 packages added this last week: - falcon - diskimage-builder - tripleo-image-elements - sphinxcontrib-programoutput I do understand that they might be absolutely needed, though it would be nice if additions to the global-requirements.txt file stopped at some point. And as far as I am concerned, the sooner the better, so that there's enough time to get the packages packaged, checked and tested, uploaded, approved by the FTP masters, and ready in time in Sid.

I think we kinda already have that, the recheck list and the bug ID assigned to it no? Automatically scanning said list and doing the recheck automatically seems like overkill in my opinion. At some point human though/interaction is required and I don't think it's too much to ask a technical contributor to simply LOOK at the output from the test runs against their patches and help out a bit. At the very least if you didn't test your patch yourself and waited for Jenkins to tell you it's broken I would hope that a submitter would at least be motivated to fix their own issue that they introduced. It is worth thinking about though, because ask a technical contributor to simply LOOK is a lot more expensive than let a script confirm the failure and tack it onto the list for rechecks. Ubuntu has something like this going for all of their users and it is pretty impressive. Apport and/or whoopsie see crashes and look at the backtraces/coredumps/etc and then (with user permission) submit a signature to the backend. It is then analyzed and the result is this: http://errors.ubuntu.com/ Known false positives are shipped along side packages so that they do not produce noise, and known points of pain for debugging are eased by including logs and other things in bug reports when users are running the dev release. This results in a much better metric for what bugs to address first. IIRC update-manager also checks in with a URL that is informed partially by this data about whether or not to update packages, so if there is a high fail rate early on, the server side will basically signal update-manager don't update right now. I'd love to see our CI system enhanced to do all of the pattern matching to group failures by common patterns, and then when a technical contributor looks at these groups they have tons of data points to _fix_ the problem rather than just spending their precious time identifying it. The point of the recheck system, IMHO, isn't to make running rechecks easier, it is to find and fix bugs. This is definitely worth thinking about and we had a session on dealing with CI logs to do interesting things like update bugs and handle rechecks automatically at the Havana summit[0]. Since then we have built a logstash + elasticsearch system[1] that filters many of our test logs and indexes a subset of what was filtered (typically anything with a log level greater than DEBUG). Building this system is step one in being able to detect anomalous logs, update bugs, and potentially perform automatic rechecks with the appropriate bug. Progress has been somewhat slow, but the current setup should be mostly stable. If anyone is interested in poking at these tools to do interesting automation with them feel free to bug the Infra team. That said, we won't have something super automagic like that before the end of Havana making John's point an important one. If previous release feature freezes are any indication we will continue to put more pressure on the CI system as we near Havana's feature freeze. Any unneeded rechecks or reverifies can potentially slow the whole process down for everyone. We should be running as many tests as possible locally before pushing to Gerrit (this is as simple as running `tox`) and making a best effort to identify the bugs that cause failures when performing rechecks or reverifies.

Re: [openstack-dev] Swift, netifaces, PyPy, and cffi
So, in what can only be described as extremely embarrassing and wow, I thought I knew how to use a computer: netifaces appears to work ok under PyPy! I could have sworn I'd tested it, but apparently not. So, this is no longer a high priority item for me to get swift on pypy (in fact, +/- eventlet and pypy releases, the test suite at least all passes!). I still think long term ditching netifaces is a good idea since it doesn't really appear to be maintained, but that's a different issue. Since code churn scares me I'm going to stop really pursuing this, the patch will always be there if anyone else is excited about this, and maybe someday I'll get the round tuits to do it myself :) Alex On Wed, Aug 14, 2013 at 5:17 PM, Vishvananda Ishaya vishvana...@gmail.comwrote: On Aug 14, 2013, at 11:12 AM, Jarret Raim jarret.r...@rackspace.com wrote: I vote for including cffi.

Re: [openstack-dev] Gate breakage process - Let's fix! (related but not specific to neutron)
I'd strongly agree with that, a project must always be gated by any tests for it, even if they don't gate for other projects. I'd also argue that any time there's a non-gating test (for any project) it needs a formal explanation of why it's not gating yet, what the plan to get it to gating is, and on what timeframe it's expected to be. Alex On Fri, Aug 16, 2013 at 11:25 AM, Maru Newby ma...@redhat.com wrote: Neutron has been in and out of the gate for the better part of the past month, and it didn't slow the pace of development one bit. Most Neutron developers kept on working as if nothing was wrong, blithely merging changes with no guarantees that they weren't introducing new breakage. New bugs were indeed merged, greatly increasing the time and effort required to get Neutron back in the gate. I don't think this is sustainable, and I'd like to make a suggestion for how to minimize the impact of gate breakage. For the record, I don't think consistent gate breakage in one project should be allowed to hold up the development of other projects. The current approach of skipping tests or otherwise making a given job non-voting for innocent projects should continue. It is arguably worth taking the risk of relaxing gating for those innocent projects rather than halting development unnecessarily. However, I don't think it is a good idea to relax a broken gate for the offending project. So if a broken job/test is clearly Neutron related, it should continue to gate Neutron, effectively preventing merges until the problem is fixed. This would both raise the visibility of breakage beyond the person responsible for fixing it, and prevent additional breakage from slipping past were the gating to be relaxed.

[openstack-dev] Swift, netifaces, PyPy, and cffi
Hi all, (This references this changeset: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/38415/) One of the goals I've been working at has been getting swift running on PyPy (and from there, the rest of OpenStack). The last blocking issue in swift is that it currently uses netifaces, which is a C-extension that doesn't on PyPy. I've proposed to replace this dependency with a cffi based binding to the system. For those not familiar, cffi is a tool for binding to C libraries, similar to ctypes (in the stdlib), except more expressive, less error prone, and faster; some of our downstream dependencies already use it. One of the issues that came up in this review however, is that cffi is not packaged in the most recent Ubuntu LTS (and likely other distributions), although it is available in raring, and in a PPA ( http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/python-cffi and https://launchpad.net/~pypy/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=preciserespectively). As a result of this, we wanted to get some feedback on which direction is best to go: a) cffi-only approach, this is obviously the simplest approach, and works everywhere (assuming you can install a PPA, use pip, or similar for cffi) b) wait until the next LTS to move to this approach (requires waiting until 2014 for PyPy support) c) Support using either netifaces or cffi: most complex, and most code, plus one or the other dependencies aren't well supported by most tools as far as I know.

Re: [openstack-dev] Dropping or weakening the 'only import modules' style guideline - H302

My view on it is that it's a useful heuristic but shouldn't be a golden rule applied everywhere. Things like matches are designed to be used as a dsl: self.assertThat(foo, Or(Equals(1), Equals(2))) rather than what H302 enforces: self.assertThat(foo, matchers.Or(matchers.Equals(1), matchers.Equals(2))) Further, conflicting module names become harder to manage, when one could import just the thing. Some arguments for requiring imports of modules: - makes the source of symbols obvious - Actually, it has no impact on that as the import is still present and clear in the file. import * would obfuscate things, but I'm not arguing for that. - and package/module names can (and are!) still ambiguous. Like 'test.' - whats that? - consult the imports. - makes mocking more reliable - This is arguably the case, but it's a mirage: it isn't a complete solution because modules still need to be mocked at every place they are dereferenced : only import modules helps to the extent that one never mocks modules. Either way this failure mode of mocking is usually very obvious IME : but keeping the rule as a recommendation, *particularly* when crossing layers to static resources is a good idea. - It's in the Google Python style guide ( http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pyguide.html?showone=Imports#Imports ) - shrug :) What I'd like us to do is weaken it from a MUST to a MAY, unless noone cares about it at all, in which case lets just turn it off entirely. -Rob -- Robert Collins rbtcoll...@hp.com Distinguished Technologist HP Converged Cloud ___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev -- I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it. -- Evelyn Beatrice Hall (summarizing Voltaire) The people's good is the highest law. -- Cicero GPG Key fingerprint: 125F 5C67 DFE9 4084 ___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
Re: [openstack-dev] Usage of mox through out the Openstack project.
I think moving towards mock is a better long term strategy: a) I don't you're correct that it's the most familiar for most python developers. By PyPi installs (A TERRIBLE METRIC, but it's all we have). Mock has 24k in the last week, mox has 3.5k b) mock is a part of the standard library starting with python 3.3, this will lead to even more adoption. Alex On Wed, Jul 24, 2013 at 11:12 AM, Chuck Short chuck.sh...@canonical.comwrote: Hi, The use of mox (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mox/0.5.3) across the test suites in the Openstack project is quite extensive. This is probably due to the fact that it is the most familiar mocking object framework for most python developers. However there is big drawback with using mox across all of the OpenStack projects is that it is not python3 compatible. This makes python3 compliance problematic because we want the test suites to be compatible as well. While thinking about this problem for a while now, while helping porting OpenStack over to python3 there is a couple of options that as a project can do as a whole: 1. Change mox usage to more python3 friendly such as mock. ( https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mock/1.0.1). However this will cause alot of code churn in the projects as we move away from mox to mock. 2. Use the python3 fork called pymox (https://github.com/emonty/pymox). This project has reasonable compatibility with mox and is python3 compatible. Using this option causes less code churn. IMHO this would be the better option. I would like to hear peoples opinion on this.
