Matt Riedemann 52d515ba7d Remove legacy request spec compat code from API
For operations which require a request spec, we now require that
the request spec exists when we look it up in the API or we fail.
All instances created since Newton should have a request spec, and
instances created before Newton should have been migrated to have
a request spec as part of an online data migration. Failing to find
a request spec will now result in a 500 internal server error.

As a result, the RequestSpec.get_by_instance_uuid query is moved
to before updating the instance.task_state in the various API methods
since we want to do all we can before updating the instance in case
we fail.

OpenStack Nova

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, XenServer, 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:
