2021 week 18 1.37-wmf.4 Changes wmf/1.37.0-wmf.4

How this works

  • Any serious bugs affecting wmf.4 should be added as subtasks beneath this one.
  • Any open subtask(s) block the train from moving forward. This means no further deployments until the blockers are resolved.
  • If something is serious enough to warrant a rollback then you should bring it to the attention of deployers on the #wikimedia-operations IRC channel.
  • If you have a risky change in this week's train add a comment to this task using the Risky patch template
  • For more info about deployment blockers, see Holding the train.

Not very, but notably risky patch! 🚂🔥

Risky Patch! 🚂🔥

1.37.0-wmf.4 has been on group0 for several hours. No apparent errors. Train looks good.

Note the client side errors for T262470 are spiking today and potentially could meet the train rollback criteria tomorrow. When rolling the train out tomorrow we should keep an eye on logstash for any huge client error spikes relating to that. cc @egardner for someone who actually knows this code and can speak for any possible impact.

Chatted to @egardner and the above error is likely limited to commons so not likely to be an issue tomorrow.

The "missing mediainfo tabs" error can only come from WikibaseMediaInfo, which is only deployed on Commons and is only active on File pages there. Why is it spiking now when the relevant code has not been touched in some time? That's another question.

Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-operations) [2021-05-07T18:23:45Z] <brennen> 1.37.0-wmf.4 train status (T281145): blockers appear resolved, going ahead in the interest of not having a split deploy over weekend

Looking stable on all wikis. Thanks all.
