Description

Observation

openQA test in scenario sle-15-Installer-DVD-x86_64-minimal+base@svirt-hyperv fails in
yast2_i

Missing needles for Installation Report as required for other architectures (see last good) or the timeout is not enough.

Reproducible

Fails since (at least) Build 486.4

Expected result

Last good: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1526061#step/yast2_i/16

https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1525973/modules/yast2_i/steps/20 looks like pretty obvious too timeout.

It seems our hyperv virtualization is notoriously slow but we have not set a higher timeout_scale on the machine yet so I set this now with

TIMEOUT_SCALE=3
_COMMENT="set TIMEOUT_SCALE as hyperv virtualization is notoriously slow, see https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/32926"

or are there any objections?

as reported in #33583 we still see errors which seem to be hyperv-timeout related.

@michalnowak what would you say, increase TIMEOUT_SCALE even more or is it something else or yast2_i specific timeout increase?

Actually the subject of that ticket was wrong to blame Hyper-V, it was Xen PV. It should not happen there at all, will investigate it as it happened for the second time in two days.

riafarov, I invested some effort to prevent generic "text-login" needles but you created one text-login-20180315 reintroducing the same problem we saw before, e.g. in https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1607827#step/consoletest_setup/5 where the wrong tty-prompt is matched prematurely. But apparently you created that needle for sle-15-Installer-DVD-x86_64-Build503.1-autoyast_bug-887126_autoinst@64bit so maybe it's needed so let's please crosscheck together shortly what the right approach would be.

Actions #18

Updated by michalnowak over 6 years ago

text-login-20180315 is prematurely matching on TTY1 while we are waiting for the console to be switched to TTY6. This is where the switch is still in progress but openQA start typing login name: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1607827#step/consoletest_setup/3.

In situations where Hyper-V is faster, we are luckier and both text-login-20180315 and tty6-selected are matched: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1605086#step/consoletest_setup/2 But only the latter one should have been.

I will pick it up as next item, if no-one else will do so. Adding it to the sprint. It doesn't look like easy ticket, and I don't have overview anyway (I don't remember all the needles I've created and reasons why).

Removing needle I've created didn't help to Anton's case: http://kimball.arch.suse.de/tests/1124#step/login/6 so we definitely need better solution, e.g. one I've proposed.

So, remaining part is ti get stats when we get soft-failure, create required needles and after that assert tty by default.

Taking the interval 11 days, since the pull request creating the soft-failure, searching poo#32926 for SLE we can found the soft-failure only in test mau-qa_kernel_kexec:

  • sle 15 & sle-12-SP3 for aarch64 & x86_64 all soft-failing since 14 days ago, except for 1 passed out 10 for sle 15 x86_64. Searching for openSUSE there are more test suites affected:
  • Only for aarch64 in openSUSE Tumbleweed AArch64. Available statistics 1 out 1, soft-failing in create_hdd_gnome, create_hdd_textmode, minimalx, textmode. All needles seems have been already created in both side.

still found references of the soft-fail, e.g. https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/674191?#step/NM_wpa2_enterprise/31 where the soft-fail refers to a needle needed for the post_fail_hook. Albeit, if this test case would fail early because the tty5-selected needle would not exist it is not a big problem, one would create the needle and rerun the test to execute the post_fail_hook properly. I created a tty5-selected needle and retriggered

The area was missing, once I created the area for tty5 and restarted is not displaying the soft-failure anymore: https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/674288#

As discussed in the daily meeting let's proceed ensuring that the tty$nr-needles cover three areas, "Welcome", "tty$nr" and "login:". I looked over all "tt$nr-selected" needles on https://openqa.suse.de/admin/needles , deleted old ones that did not match for quite some time, created new needles which explicitly cover the three above mentioned sections and deleted the corresponding old needles covering not all three areas. I will monitor some retriggered jobs and then conduct the same approach for o3.

Any progress here? I would at least merge PR from Joaquin and then you can improve solution with your proposal. WDYT?

Actions #42

Updated by okurz over 6 years ago

So I did the corresponding steps for o3 as well.

https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/5023 was the PR from jrivera which we already closed.

https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/5026 is my PR

Looking at

https://w3.nue.suse.com/~okurz/openqa_opensuse_org_status.html I can find no references to poo#32926, however on https://w3.nue.suse.com/~okurz/openqa_suse_de_status.html I can still find references to "kernel_kexec" that look for "linux-login" and make it wrong as the prompt is looked for before actual reboot which I think we need to handle first.
