The only in-tree filters that rely on HostState.instances are the affinity filters (and one of the weighers). And they don't even look at the values in the HostState.instances dict, just the keys (which are the instance uuids for the instances on the host). So rather than pull the full instance objects, we can just get the list of instance uuids off the host and fake out the object. Custom filters/weighers will still be able to lazy-load fields on the Instance objects in HostState.instances if needed, but it will mean a performance penalty due to the round trip to the database per instance, per host. Out of tree filters/weighers are encouraged to be contributed upstream.

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:
