Ceph Steering Committee Notes 2025-02-10

[Ernesto Puerta <epuertat@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Cephers,

These are the topics covered in today's meeting:

• [Patrick] Any objections to running clean-ci now? Do you have any important branches in ceph-ci?

• https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/61709
• Joseph asked if it could delete branches similarly to GitHub UI/API so that they can be restored if needed?
  

• [Radek] Switching default build type for non-.git builds to RelWithDebInfo. This affects downstreams (if no build type is specified)!
• Matan's PR: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/61637/
• [Sam] Can it be done with CFLAGS instead? To be announced in ceph-dev. Set default/fall back to Release, which seems the safest.
• [Greg] Not all releases are of "Release" type, some include debug info.
• [Matan] 1. Release: `-O3 -DNDEBUG`
            2. Debug: `-O0 -g`
            3. RelWithDebInfo: `-O2 -g -DNDEBUG`
            4. MinSizeRel: `-Os -DNDEBUG` 
• [JosephM] this needs to be backported.
  

• [Dan-probably absent today] Upgrade 17.2.8 to 18.2.4 is currently broken: https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/67660 (Cephadm feature backported to quincy before reef).

• 18.2.5 is next, right? Can it be quick pls?

• QA question: do we test upgrade from the candidate  to the current maj_ver+1? This kind of thing should have been caught.
• [Neha]To be followed up offline (QA is currently blocked by the ceph-ci too-many-branches issue).
  

• [Joseph Mundackal] - containerized builds

• https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/59841 - initial version of this merged. Looking for feedback and missing features.

• Open trackers to build on ubuntu 24

• https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/62804

• https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/69240 (open PR: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/61326)

• https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/69525
• [Matan] There might be issues with compiler versions (e.g.: Ubuntu 22)
  

• [cbodley] stalebot on backport branches was enabled recently in https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/60736

• can we revert? backport prs aren't tested promptly so someone would have to micromanage them to prevent closing
• Revert PR: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/61743
  

• [Adam Kraitman] Virtualization solution for hosting the lab services
• VMWare (IBM paid/agreement with Broadcom) vs. Proxmox
  
• [DavidG] temporary (~1 year) solution while infra is containerized.
  
• [Greg] precedent of iSCSI. 
• NVMe-oF support in Proxmox? Not needed, librbd.

Discussion on Tentacle schedule postponed till next week.

Kind Regards,

Ernesto
