Meeting notes and agenda for the 4/10 meeting * We took a decision at the release planning meeting to integrate the partially complete NUMA live migration patches from Artom into the f/stein branch to de-risk the feature. Gerry to backport and add his fixes. Bill to get an update on the status of this. * Are there any other changes from the upstream list that are also that important? * Dean's email from 4/5: * I just finished resetting the stx-nova repo [0] to track upstream nova: * * the old master branch is now stx/old-master for reference * * master branch is a snapshot of upstream master as of about 30 min ago * * stable/stein branch is a snapshot of upstream stable/stein as of about 30 min ago * * stx/stein is our working copy of stable/stein and where anything we backport should land. * Big Note: I am thinking about keeping a policy of periodically rebasing stx/stein on stable/stein to keep a clear history as we move forward, making it easier to see what we have added. That possibly means doing it next week when the final stein tag is added. Thoughts? * Force pushes can be inconvenient for developers but I am thinking the price may be worth the return on a wider scale. * Chris replied: * I like the idea of rebasing periodically to keep our changes "on top". * Rather than force-pushing, it might make sense to create a new branch for each of these rebases. That way we don't need to rewrite history. * We agreed that we would create a new branch every time we pick up a new change, picking up the new upstream every time (even with other changes). This requires a build change every time but is consistent with how we are handling other similar packages e.g. Ceph. New branches to be f/stein.1/.2/.3 etc... * Have the NUMA changes from upstream been backported to the branch? Any links to reviews or stories? Bill to provide from Gerry. * 99 Cloud sent an email update: * AR Bruce to ping Eric on getting eyeballs on rdb disk reviews and a couple others that look ready to go * Bruce to update the master spreadsheet from the email update * Shuquan to check if the fixes for "Fix stale RequestSpec instance numa topology for live-migration" are in the Stein branch (or need to be backported) * Dean to create a f/stein.1 branch for the NUMA live migration backport from Gerry.
