Dmitrii Shcherbakov 0620678344 [yoga] Add support for VNIC_REMOTE_MANAGED
Allow instances to be created with VNIC_TYPE_REMOTE_MANAGED ports.
Those ports are assumed to require remote-managed PCI devices which
means that operators need to tag those as "remote_managed" in the PCI
whitelist if this is the case (there is no meta information or standard
means of querying this information).

The following changes are introduced:

* Handling for VNIC_TYPE_REMOTE_MANAGED ports during allocation of
  resources for instance creation (remote_managed == true in
  InstancePciRequests);

* Usage of the noop os-vif plugin for VNIC_TYPE_REMOTE_MANAGED ports
  in order to avoid the invocation of the local representor plugging
  logic since a networking backend is responsible for that in this
  case;

* Expectation of bind time events for ports of VNIC_TYPE_REMOTE_MANAGED.
  Events for those arrive early from Neutron after a port update (before
  Nova begins to wait in the virt driver code, therefore, Nova is set
  to avoid waiting for plug events for VNIC_TYPE_REMOTE_MANAGED ports;

* Making sure the service version is high enough on all compute services
  before creating instances with ports that have VNIC type
  VNIC_TYPE_REMOTE_MANAGED. Network requests are examined for the presence
  of port ids to determine the VNIC type via Neutron API. If
  remote-managed ports are requested, a compute service version check
  is performed across all cells.

OpenStack Nova

image

OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of compute technologies, including: libvirt (KVM, Xen, LXC and more), Hyper-V, VMware, OpenStack Ironic and PowerVM.

Use the following resources to learn more.

API

To learn how to use Nova's API, consult the documentation available online at:

For more information on OpenStack APIs, SDKs and CLIs in general, refer to:

Operators

To learn how to deploy and configure OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation available online at:

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

Developers

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.

Further developer focused documentation is available at:

Other Information

During each Summit and Project Team Gathering, we agree on what the whole community wants to focus on for the upcoming release. The plans for nova can be found at:
