Stephen Finucane 14596ca30f libvirt: Remove dead error handling code
We removed calls to configure the libvirt-based firewall driver in
'_create_guest_with_network' as part of change
I5a9e5532c46a5f7064441ae644125d21efe5fda1. Since then, there only other
way we can successfully create a guest and still end up in an exception
handler is if the plugging of VIFs fails. Despite this, all three code
paths still contained references to a 'guest' attribute that would never
be set.

Clarify things by removing the use of the 'guest' attribute from the
other code paths. This means the '_cleanup_failed_start' helper only has
one caller and some unnecessary logic itself, so we can fold that into
its caller. We also take this opportunity to remove an unnecessary
error handler - 'nova.exception.VirtualInterfaceCreateException' is
derived from 'Exception' and doesn't need its own handler - and add the
type hints for the function. The heavy lifting for the latter was
already done in change I2489bf16dabc8a83b2044139247f4245ae29adb1 so this
is pretty easy to grok.

Next up, we really need to stop passing around dicts of block device
mapping info, but that's another change for another day.

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

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.
