timeout causing gate-tempest-dsvm-full to fail

[John Dickinson]

This has happened several times. A recent example is in https://jenkins02.openstack.org/job/gate-tempest-dsvm-full/775/console

There are several mentions of FAIL in the logs, but since the job timed out, no console logs were saved.

[John Dickinson (notmyname)]

see http://paste.openstack.org/show/54727/ for an example of the logs, including tracebacks (the test node was preserved and logs looked at)

[Matthew Treinish (treinish)]

I've uploaded some of the logs from the test node that John mentioned above that we held. That pastebin was just a grep of all the logs for TRACE. I can upload any of the other service logs from the node, I just figured these would be the most useful.

Marking as critical since it blocks a gating job

[Joe Gordon (jogo)]

Abhishek, are you sure this is a nova issue? If we don't have a elastic recheck fingerprint for this is (making it harder to see if its a duplicate or not) then we shouldn't mark this as critical. Also don't see any comments about how you confirmed this is a nova issue so moving back to new.

[Sean Dague (sdague)]

If the fix is increasing the timeout in the gate, it's not a tempest bug. It looks like in this case libvirt went off the rails, so nova is probably a good bug choice

[Matt Riedemann (mriedem)]

Looks like bug 1253185 was the same issue before but was closed with this comment from James Blair:

"This was from when serving zuul refs was very slow; since fixed."

That was on 12/10. I saw it this morning with bug 1260816.

1253185 really was a different problem -- in the run cited in that bug, it took 25 minutes for devstack to start because zuul refs were being served slowly.

    Add e-r query for bug 1258682

    When the build times out and this fails, there are no logs really
    so we have to base this on the build timeout message in the
    console log.

    Note that we are essentially doing a wildcard for the timeout
    value but we restrict the query based on build_name to avoid
    hits on some swift jobs.

This seems to also be a similar run http://logs.openstack.org/27/56827/3/gate/gate-tempest-dsvm-full/75c3c1b/ is it expected that a timeout will purge all of the log files so there are no screen-* logs

[Joe Gordon (jogo)]

This bug is very very generic, and can be multiple bugs underneath. We are working on making sure that in the event of a timeout we preserve logs

    Preserve testr temp files

    If testr is killed before it finishes running, it saves its output in a
    temp file. If something times out this file may provide insight into
    what was making it slow, so preserve the temp file.

I am seeing a similar kind of failure here http://logs.openstack.org/77/64077/2/gate/gate-tempest-dsvm-postgres-full/b254ac8/console.html

But the timeout error looks like:

./safe-devstack-vm-gate-wrap.sh: line 213: 2805 Killed timeout -s 9 ${DEVSTACK_GATE_TIMEOUT}m $BASE/new/devstack-gate/devstack-vm-gate.sh

[Clark Boylan (cboylan)]

That is the same failure, but new machinery was added to devstack-gate to timeout within the job itself so that the log data can be collected before the Jenkins timeout is hit (when you hit the Jenkins timeout all of the service logs are unavailable).

[Matt Riedemann (mriedem)]

Just confirming that this bug still exists, there are 9 hits in the last 7 days:

build timeout after 65mins.

[Jeremy Stanley (fungi)]

There is work underway to have zuul push its git refs to the git.openstack.org farm, which we can scale out/up easily to cope with additional load. This should hopefully reduce any delays introduced by zuul being too heavily loaded during frequent gate resets to be able to also serve git repositories to job workers in a timely fashion.

    Fix the e-r query for bug 1258682

    The query for bug 1258682 uses wildcards and that doesn't work since
    wildcard analysis is disabled by default in elasticsearch for
    performance reasons.

    Looking at the query again, filtering on build_name is probably not
    necessary and actually limits the number of hits where we see the bug.
    When removing the build_name filters, there are more hits and on
    different jobs, i.e. gate-rally-py26 and gate-heat-py27 start showing
    hits.

Hmm, this patch hit this bug in the gate but e-r didn't catch it, wondering if the latest change to the e-r query broke it?

If you isolate to only check/gate queue, it's more manageable:

message:"Build timed out" AND message:"Marking the build as failed." AND tags:"console" AND (build_queue:"check" OR build_queue:"gate")
