Fixed In Version: openstack-tripleo-heat-templates-5.3.10-18.el7ost
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
This update adds a TripleO heat template parameter as an option for setting RX/TX queue size. Prior to this update, users could set RX/TX queue size with `nova::compute::libvirt::rx_queue_size/nova::compute::libvirt::tx_queue_size`. However, there was no dedicated TripleO heat template parameter. With this update, users can set the RX/TX queue size either on a global level using: ``` parameter_defaults: NovaLibvirtRxQueueSize: 1024 NovaLibvirtTxQueueSize: 1024 ``` or overwrite the hieradata via [ROLE]ExtraConfig, which then can be used to configure a subset of compute nodes for which a dedicated role was created: ``` parameter_defaults: NovaComputeExtraConfig: nova::compute::libvirt::rx_queue_size: 1024 nova::compute::libvirt::tx_queue_size: 1024 ``` Note: The possibilities described above are mutually exclusive.

Description of problem:
RX/TX Queue size implemented in RHOSP 14 according to the following BZ [1] [2], missing THT parameters.

[1] - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1553088
[2] - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1512941

THT parameters should configure rx_queue_size and tx_queue_size in nova.conf
[libvirt]
rx_queue_size=1024
tx_queue_size=1024

--- Additional comment from Eric Elena on 2018-08-16 04:18:31 EDT ---

Please note that as per [0] you can use the following snippet:

parameter_defaults:
  ComputeExtraConfig:
    nova::compute::libvirt::rx_queue_size: 1024
    nova::compute::libvirt::tx_queue_size: 1024

--- Additional comment from Martin Schuppert on 2018-08-22 05:58:49 EDT ---

RX/TX queue size can be set on a role base like:

parameter_defaults:
  ComputeParameters:
    NovaLibvirtRxQueueSize: 1024
    NovaLibvirtTxQueueSize: 1024

[root@compute-0 ~]# egrep "^rx|^tx" /var/lib/config-data/puppet-generated/nova_libvirt/etc/nova/nova.conf 
rx_queue_size=1024
tx_queue_size=1024
Comment 12 Joe H. Rahme 2019-01-09 12:54:10 UTC 
Verification steps

Deployed using the following params:

	parameter_defaults:
	  NovaLibvirtRxQueueSize: 1024
	  NovaLibvirtTxQueueSize: 1024
	
After deployment we can see the changes reflected in nova.conf:

	[heat-admin@compute-0 ~]$ sudo egrep '(rx|tx)' /etc/nova/nova.conf
	# Configure virtio rx queue size.
	#rx_queue_size=<None>
	rx_queue_size=1024
	# Configure virtio tx queue size.
	#tx_queue_size=<None>
	tx_queue_size=1024
	

Package tested:

	[stack@undercloud-0 ~]$ yum info openstack-tripleo-heat-templates
