[SRU] newton nova-lxd 13.2.0 point release

James, Chuck

The title references Newton, but Newton/Yakkety has nova-lxd 14, whereas Xenial/Mitaka has 13. 13.2.0 should be for X/M, unless I'm missing something?

Hello Chuck, or anyone else affected,

Accepted nova-lxd into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nova-lxd/13.2.0-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

I verified commit 216b7a5cd50bb0ef10edfeb6b551b75b083952ae (<https://github.com/openstack/nova-lxd/commit/216b7a5cd50bb0ef10edfeb6b551b75b083952ae>) works as it should to fix flavor extra specs.

Procedure followed:

I stood up a Xenial/Mitaka juju 1.x/nova-lxd environment using the openstack-charmers' bundle in bundles/lxd/default.yaml, imported a Xenial lxd image, and set the `lxd:nested_allowed` extra spec on the m1.small flavor:
$ nova flavor-key m1.small set lxd:nested_allowed=True
$ nova flavor-show m1.small

1) python-nova-lxd 13.0.0-0ubuntu3.1: failing test

At this stage the version of python-nova-lxd run by the hypervisors is 13.0.0:

$ juju run --service nova-compute 'dpkg -l python-nova-lxd | grep ii'
- MachineId: "10"
  Stdout: |
    ii python-nova-lxd 13.0.0-0ubuntu3.1 all OpenStack Compute Python libraries - LXD driver
  UnitId: nova-compute/0
- MachineId: "11"
  Stdout: |
    ii python-nova-lxd 13.0.0-0ubuntu3.1 all OpenStack Compute Python libraries - LXD driver
  UnitId: nova-compute/1
- MachineId: "12"
  Stdout: |
    ii python-nova-lxd 13.0.0-0ubuntu3.1 all OpenStack Compute Python libraries - LXD driver
  UnitId: nova-compute/2

Now we boot an instance using the m1.small flavor, and verify that security.nesting is not set on either the instance or its profile, since the extra spec is being ignored.

$ nova boot --image xenial-lxd --flavor m1.small --key-name testkey --nic net-id=c1fc9eb7-af43-484e-9784-85315bd3d4e1 x-nesting-test

# Determine which compute host the instance was scheduled to, and under which name
nova show x-nesting-test | grep -E 'hypervisor|instance' | sed 's/|//g'
 OS-EXT-SRV-ATTR:hypervisor_hostname juju-dsjpoulain-machine-10
 OS-EXT-SRV-ATTR:instance_name instance-00000005

# On the hypervisor, check that the instance and its profile do NOT have security.nesting set on them
ubuntu@juju-dsjpoulain-machine-10:~$ lxc config show instance-00000005 --expanded | grep security # no output
ubuntu@juju-dsjpoulain-machine-10:~$ lxc profile show instance-00000005 | grep security # no output

2) python-nova-lxd 13.2.0-0ubuntu1: passing test

I installed python-nova-lxd 13.2.0-0ubuntu1 from xenia...

Ran tempest smoke tests against nova-lxd 13.2.0 tests past successfully.

The verification of the Stable Release Update for nova-lxd has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

This bug was fixed in the package nova-lxd - 13.2.0-0ubuntu1
