Description

In this moment, we have acceptance running in x86_64 and ppc64le in openQA. https://openqa.suse.de/tests/overview?distri=sle&version=12-SP3&build=0365&groupid=55
It reduce a lot of time to make the whole process of milestone candidate build acceptance test. Before x86_64 and ppc64le runs stress acceptance tests, we need 1 day to finish all test. And now, it need only half day to make it.
If s390x can enable following stress test, it'll help to reduce more time in each product milestone test.

Seems like that never worked. I see that the tests always fail as incomplete trying to access an asset which is not generated, e.g.: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/993148
It can't work like this because assets are generated but the job does not have a dependency on any parent. Also the worker must be zkvm-image because of https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqav3/wiki/Wiki#on-zKVM . The test suites have a correct START_AFTER_TEST=sles12_minimal_base+sdk_create_hdd but that is not fulfilled by any job on s390x-zkvm. So I did the following steps now:

  • Moved scenarios to "test development job group"
  • Changed worker class to "zkvm-image"
  • Added scenario "sles12_minimal_base+sdk_create_hdd@zkvm-image"
  • Triggered tests for build 0420 with

Actions #7

Updated by okurz almost 7 years ago

https://openqa.suse.de/tests/995815#step/addon_products_sle/11 failed because the job is within in the test development group with a more restricted quota and the worker is very busy so the job started late, the sdk was already deleted by gru cleanup because quota was exceeded. It is correct that the asset got deleted because when we have a scheduled job we never know if it will ever be triggered. So the image creation job should rather go into the sle functional group where I moved it now.

Actions #14

Updated by okurz over 6 years ago

To have a good template for SLE 12SP4 as well as SLE15 I removed the scheduling from the test dev group and added it to SLE 12 SP3 functional: https://openqa.suse.de/admin/job_templates/55 . We won't have a new build triggered there but it serves as a template to mark the jobs that are supposed to work.

The jobs you referenced were obsoleted (don't know why, maybe sle15?) so I triggered new ones: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1080197 , https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1080198, https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1080199 that might complete but will take some time. I will keep this ticket on feedback for now to monitor.

I will create another ticket to rename some scenarios: I don't think the "sles12_qa" prefix makes sense for test suites.

we should improve the error handling in cases of select_console failing on zkvm, e.g. execute commands over the svirt connection and check for the existance of corresponding ssh connections for each console (and potentially xterm-console processes as well on the worker)

Discussed with riafarov. PR merged. Same problem as on opeth now reproduced on osd:

https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1197620/file/serial0.txt explains the problem with s390x stress tests, see at the end the errors about network config rewriting. With no network it is understandable why ssh can not be reached:

  • Status changed from In Progress to Feedback

Discussed with riafarov and we decided that we are blocked here by #19362 . The test modules "acceptance_sched_stress" and such are not easy to understand, they do some custom stuff about booting the images and probably are missing some parts for s390x. So the approach should be to split the test modules accordingly into booting existing disk images which should also work for s390x and then we can see what's missing about s390x in this specific scenario.

Nothing is wrong about the console but there is a preparatory step missing. This is why I stated in #18936#note-27 that #19362 should come first by splitting qa_run and using the standard test modules to boot to a complete system in the proper way. Trying to patch the custom stress test code is IMHO not efficient.

clearly, system_login is the first step of this testing from qa_run.pm, it looks need some specify setup for s390 zvm host connection in this first step, which can be defined in qa_run.pm.
Although #19362 to splitting workload is the task we would like to enhance, but I don't think that is the root cause. Now the key point is, we need to know how can connect and reuse the s390_created_hdd as testing host in openQA, let's say, what step missing before "select_console('root-console')", does it need reconnect_s390?

My understanding is #19362 splitting workload is an enhancement of the test structure, better for debugging/reviewing, but not fix this main issue. The urgent thing is to learn which step is missing, as for putting this step in qa_run.pm structure or in a single *.pm for calling, I would leave to tester to decide. #19362 was created many month ago, I want to enhance the structure, however Sero and Nathan were taking many other high priority on project testing, testsuite fixing, so, for those 'enhancement' task we have to put in lower priority.

If you don't mind, I will ask Nathan help to look at this issue with you together, since our other testsuite testing in 'Kernel''Userspace' groups will see the same problem when they be enabled on s390 arch. On the other hand, when Sero finish his high priority tasks, he will keep taking the splitting task. Is it fine to you? :)

So we had the following finding. The switch to 'root-console' does not work. Most likely the problem is that we run the image creation job on s390x-kvm as well as zkvm which are both publishing the image with the same name. So based on what job completes the latest will generate the image. If a test booting that image is then triggered it will most likely fail if the machine of the image generation job differs from the one booting that image.

I see the following options:

  • get rid of the zkvm jobs and replace all downstream jobs by s390x-kvm ones as we want to phase out zkvm anyway. This could be done by "dump_templates", replace, "load_templates" or manually in the job group schedule assignment.
  • add %MACHINE% to PUBLISH_HDD_1 to be emachine specific. That's already used in many test suites so why not?

We can see that we don't reach SUT, x is running, and we are not able to switch to root console. Even on same instance of the worker test succeeds and fails randomly. Debugging is complicated, as we have to kill virsh connection from openQA to connect and then we need second connection to actually send the commands.

See runs here: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1212861#live
We've used zkvm, as x-kvm fails to create qcow image.
Here is example of same worker instance which failed to connect and passed:
