Looks like this is happened only once in the gate queue in the last 7 days. If I could figure out how to use the latest logstash I'd be happy to share the results of my queries, but apparently I am too cretin to understand the new GUI.

[Armando Migliaccio (armando-migliaccio)]

That's the gate failure:

For some reason it appears that Tempest is deleting the server, and then attempting to use it after deleting it.

Adding tempest to the list of affected projects. It's possible that the tempest code is holding onto a reference to an instance after it has been deleted and attempts to use it again.

[Dmitry Ratushnyy (dmitry-ratushnyy)]

Sean, I don't think that this happening during setup. I get this error on booting servers.

I've got fails on gate ( changeset https://review.openstack.org/#/c/248355/ )

[Sean M. Collins (scollins)]

Right - because it appears to be a "use after free" inside of Tempest, where tempest has a handle to a compute instance, deletes it, but then later tries to use it again. In the logs of Nova we see the REST call from Tempest to delete the server, then later a REST call to get information about the instance, where Nova returns a 404.

[Dmitry Ratushnyy (dmitry-ratushnyy)]

But in case above, fail is not after deleting instance, but after booting new one.
And right after boot it tries to get IpV4 address. There is no delete step.
Or I missing something?

[Sean M. Collins (scollins)]

@Dmitry - that appears to be a different bug, that has the same error message.

[Dmitry Ratushnyy (dmitry-ratushnyy)]

@Sean
Do you think that is tempest or neutron test? I can fire another one for my failures on gate

[Andreas Scheuring (andreas-scheuring)]

I also had some occurences of this issue and tried to figure out the problem. Just want to share my observations. I refer to [1]

Failing test: test_dualnet_multi_prefix_dhcpv6_stateless
What was happening: For the test 2 instances are required. The first instance was set up successfully with (prepare_server). The error happened while was processing the second one. It has been created, but creating the floating ip failed, as querying the port resulted in an empty list [2] [3]. This is the failing assertion [4]. Right after that the cleanup starts.

Having a look at the flow with "tap3b689f82-b8" of the failing instance "7141979-cae6-40d3-9ca6-2e8ac6b45b63" [5]
2016-01-29 21:58:47.823 [q-agt] Tap device has been added and detected by agent loop [7]
2016-01-29 21:58:49.089 [q-svc] Device details requested from agent [12]
2016-01-29 21:58:52.241 [q-svc] Neutron server got informed, that the device is up [9]
2016-01-29 21:58:52.817 [q-agt] full agent resync triggerred [13]
2016-01-29 21:58:53.976 [q-svc] Device details got requested again (due to agent resync)[11]
2016-01-29 21:58:56,049 [console] tempest test fails as query on port did not return anything useful
2016-01-29 21:58:56,287 [console] Delete has been triggered [8]
2016-01-29 21:58:56.942 [q-agt] Tap disappeared (agent was in the midst of processing it) [6]
2016-01-29 21:59:10.396 [q-svc] Neutron server got informed, that device is down [10]
--> found nothing that caught my attention... the agent resync was triggered due to bug 1532171 as a parallel running testcase deleted an instance...

The query that returns nothing is:

http://127.0.0.1:9696/v2.0/ports?device_id=a7141979-cae6-40d3-9ca6-2e8ac6b45b63&status=ACTIVE&fixed_ip=None
One of the 3 query attributes must have caused the result to be nothing. There should be at 2 ports being returned!
My proposal would be to extend the logging before that assertion is made and print out a list of all available ports to see why this query is failing...

Hi Armando, I need to object your statement. logstash shows 45 occurences in the last 7 days....

[Armando Migliaccio (armando-migliaccio)]

Andreas: I was talking about the gate queue, which at the time I made the statement was returning no errors.

Yesterday a trace popped up (Feb 3)

http://logs.openstack.org/70/274570/3/gate/gate-tempest-dsvm-neutron-linuxbridge/a52584e/

So you can object my statement as much as you want, but that still remains true at the time I made it :)

[Kevin Benton (kevinbenton)]

The root cause of this is that the Linux bridge agent was exploding during the setup loop on an unrelated port. This would cause the port we are working with to go back into the BUILD state on the server after already being ACTIVE and telling nova to the VM. So then the list ports call from tempest that filtered on ACTIVE would not see the port.

commit 96c67e22f9cba2ea0e7fb3ba2a63e4905e48c1a4
Author: Kevin Benton <email address hidden>
Date: Thu Feb 4 13:49:42 2016 -0800

    Only ensure admin state on ports that exist

    The linux bridge agent was calling ensure_port_admin state
    unconditionally on ports in treat_devices_added_or_updated.
    This would cause it to throw an error on interfaces that
    didn't exist so it would restart the entire processing loop.

    If another port was being updated in the same loop before this
    one, that port would experience a port status life-cycle of
    DOWN->BUILD->ACTIVE->BUILD->ACTIVE
                       ^ <--- Exception in unrelated port causes cycle
                              to start over again.

    This causes the bug below because the first active transition will
    cause Nova to boot the VM. At this point tempest tests expect the
    ports that belong to the VM to be in the ACTIVE state so it filters
    Neutron port list calls with "status=ACTIVE". Therefore tempest would
    not get any ports back and assume there was some kind of error with
    the port and bail.

    This patch just makes sure the admin state call is skipped if the port
    doesn't exist and it includes a basic unit test to prevent a regression.

    Emit warning when instances have ports not ACTIVE

    This changes the tempest logic to request all ports rather than
    just ACTIVE ports for a server and then filters them locally so
    we can log an warning message when a server has ports not in the
    ACTIVE state. This will help debug cases in the future where the
    Neutron port status is in an unstable state due to agent wiring
    errors.

    lb: avoid doing nova VIF work plumbing tap to qbr

    neutron should rely on nova doing the job instead of trying to 'fix' it.
    'Fixing' it introduces race conditions between lb agent and nova VIF
    driver. Particularly, lb agent can scan for new tap devices in the
    middle of nova plumbing qbr-tap setup, and attempt to do it on its own.
    So if agent is more lucky to plug the tap device into the bridge, nova
    may fail to do the same, getting the following error:

    libvirtError: Unable to add bridge brqxxx-xx port tapxxx-xx: Device or
    resource busy

    This also requires a change in how the port admin_state_up is implemented
    by setting the tap device's link state instead of moving it in or out
    of the bridge.

    lb: avoid doing nova VIF work plumbing tap to qbr

    neutron should rely on nova doing the job instead of trying to 'fix' it.
    'Fixing' it introduces race conditions between lb agent and nova VIF
    driver. Particularly, lb agent can scan for new tap devices in the
    middle of nova plumbing qbr-tap setup, and attempt to do it on its own.
    So if agent is more lucky to plug the tap device into the bridge, nova
    may fail to do the same, getting the following error:

    libvirtError: Unable to add bridge brqxxx-xx port tapxxx-xx: Device or
    resource busy

    This also requires a change in how the port admin_state_up is implemented
    by setting the tap device's link state instead of moving it in or out
    of the bridge.

    lb: Correct String formatting to get rid of logged ValueError

    The following error is caused by a missing String formatting in the
    linuxbridge agent:
    "ValueError: unsupported format character 'a' (0x61) at index 90
    Logged from file linuxbridge_neutron_agent.py, line 447"

    In addition a duplicated word in the log text has been fixed.
