2018-02-20xci: Switch VM disk cache to 'unsafe' and use 'iothreads' for I/OMarkos Chandras1-2/+2
According to the docs[1] "writeback: This mode causes the hypervisor to interact with the disk image file or block device with neither O_DSYNC nor O_DIRECT semantics. The host page cache is used and writes are reported to the guest as completed when they are placed in the host page cache. The normal page cache management will handle commitment to the storage device. Additionally, the guest's virtual storage adapter is informed of the writeback cache, so the guest would be expected to send down flush commands as needed to manage data integrity. Analogous to a raid controller with RAM cache." and "writeback: This mode informs the guest of the presence of a write cache, and relies on the guest to send flush commands as needed to maintain data integrity within its disk image. This is a common storage design which is completely accounted for within modern file systems. This mode exposes the guest to data loss in the unlikely case of a host failure, because there is a window of time between the time a write is reported as completed, and that write being committed to the storage device." "unsafe: This mode is similar to writeback caching except for the following: the guest flush commands are ignored, nullifying the data integrity control of these flush commands, and resulting in a higher risk of data loss because of host failure. The name “unsafe” should serve as a warning that there is a much higher potential for data loss because of a host failure than with the other modes. As the guest terminates, the cached data is flushed at that time." It's beneficial to use the host page cache to cache I/O from the guest instead of waiting for data to reach the actual disk device. We do not normally care about data integrity so data loss is not a problem. Moreover, we drop the cache configuration from the flavor files since it's independent of the flavor that's being deployed.

2018-02-19xci: xci-deploy.sh: Calculate and print the total deployment timeMarkos Chandras1-1/+1
It's useful to know how XCI performs in terms of duration time so use the bash $SECONDS variable to calculate the total amount of time it takes for a full XCI deployment. Moreover, use the 'ts' command to print a timestamp for every command executed. This will help developers identify tasks which take a lot of time to complete and possibly optimize them.

We should pin the SHAs for Ironic components as part of the regular bifrost bump to ensure maximum long term stability. This also bumps the bifrost SHA to the latest available one. Change-Id: Ia66d8ab6566db58e2ddab5134eb8445bd84d2a8f Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <mchandras@suse.de>
2018-02-07xci: scripts: vm: Use LVM backend if availableMarkos Chandras1-5/+21
The CI nodes come with a big secondary mechanical disk which can be attached directly to the clean VM. As such, we split the disk into one logical volume per distribution and flush the qcow2 image to it before attaching it to the VM. If the XCI volume group is not available, then we revert back to using a file-based storage backend. Finally, we hide stdout/stderr from the package installation process to minimize the script output.

Using 'installer' to describe the tool that will deploy the foundations of a particular XCI scenario is more appropriate than NFVI which normally describes both the physical and virtual resources needed by an NFV deployment.

2017-12-11xci: Make it easier to use OpenStack-Ansible stable branchesMarkos Chandras1-1/+1
It seems it is desirable for projects to use stable OpenStak-Ansible and OpenStack releases in general. However, merely overriding OPENSTACK_OSA_VERSION doesn't work because role requirements and OpenStack services have to be adapted too. Despite the Documentation warning users about this, seems like nobody remembers to read and do the necessary steps. However, this leads to numerous invalid bug reports due to this stable/master mix. Lets try to help improving this situation by doing all the necessary ground work if we detect that we are using a stable branch.

2017-10-09xci: scripts: start-new-vm.sh: Add option to clean VM on failureMarkos Chandras1-0/+15
Sometimes we may want to remove the clean VM in case of failure. This is mostly true for CI tests because developers do not normally have access to the deployed VMs to debug problems since they can easily recreate the same environment using this script. If they ever want direct access to the slaves then that option can easily be turned off and retrigger the job. In the meantime, this patch allows slaves to free resources when a job fails instead of keeping the broken tests around.

2017-10-07xci: scripts: start-new-vm.sh: Do not destroy user's configuration fileMarkos Chandras1-16/+20
As we move towards making this script useful for developers, we shouldn't destroy the existing ssh configuration file but rather create a new one just for XCI. This also move the destruction of previous instances sooner, even before building the OS image so we can free resources as soon as possible. Finally, this also uses the hostname to ssh to the new VM instead of its IP to ensure that everything is setup up properly on the physical host.

2017-10-03xci: scripts: start-new-vm.sh: Set JENKINS_HOME on local runsMarkos Chandras1-0/+5
If we are creating a new virtual machine for local testing, then we should set JENKINS_HOME since some playbooks use this variable to determine if the deployment happens on a CI or not.

2017-10-02xci: scripts: start-new-vm.sh: Use Docker to build OS imagesMarkos Chandras2-104/+85
Use a docker container to build the OS images so we can build images and start new virtual machines on all supported operating systems. This way all developers can now launch a virtual machine to quickly reproduce Jenkins results which should assist with debugging problems. Since the container runs with elevated privileges it's best to ensure that we have exclusive access to devices. Finally, we remove the build-dib-os.sh script which is now part of the container itself. The build image process now becomes more stable since it runs on clean evnironment all the time so the only external factor is the upstream distribution repositories.

These scripts will prepare a clean OS image based on diskimage-builder and launch a new VM with it. The purpose of that is to use this virtual machine as a 'host' to run XCI on it. This way we can ensure that all tests are being executed on the same clean environment which is ideal for reproducing and debugging purposes. We also commit the ssh keypair so we can build it in the image and use it to control the virtual machine without user interaction. Needless to say that this keypair MUST NOT be used for anything else apart from the dib build process.
