Title:
nova-compute shouldn't spawn two libguestfs appliances every time an
instance is launched
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
Expired
Bug description:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1064947
Using RHELOSP 4.0 GA bits, I'm finding that when I launch the Cirros
0.3.1 image, separate calls to libguestfs within the nova codebase
cause qemu-kvm to be run twice *before* the instance is launched.
This is suboptimal.
One libguestfs call (file injection) can be disabled by setting
libvirt_inject_partition=-2, but this does not work for the second one
(checking to see if the volume partition/filesystem can be extended).
The codepath for the second call is approximately:
/nova/virt/disk/api.py extend()
/nova/virt/disk/api.py is_image_partitionless()
/nova/virt/disk/vfs/guestfs.py VFSGuestFS.setup()
It would be good if all of this could be done with one libguestfs
instance which could also be disabled in the global nova config.
