Artom Lifshitz 560317c766 libvirt: move checking CONF.my_ip to init_host()
Migrations use the libvirt driver's get_host_ip_addr() method to
determine the dest_host field of the migration object.
get_host_ip_addr() checks whether CONF.my_ip is actually assigned to
one of the host's interfaces. It does so by calling
get_machine_ips(), which iterates over all of the host's interfaces.
If the host has many interfaces, this can take a long time, and
introduces needless delays in processing the migration.
get_machine_ips() is only used to print a warning, so this patch moves
the get_machine_ips() call to a single method in init_host(). This
way, a warning is still emitted at compute service startup, and
migration progress is not needlessly slowed down.

NOTE(artom) While the following paragraph still applies, the poison
patch will not be backported. Stubbing out use of
netifaces.interfaces() is still a good thing to do, however.

This patch also has a chicken and egg problem with the patch on top of
it, which poisons use of netifaces.interfaces() in tests. While this
patch fixes all the tests that break with that poison, it starts
breaking different tests because of the move of get_machine_ips() into
init_host(). Therefore, while not directly related to the bug, this
patch also preventatively mocks or stubs out any use of
get_machine_ips() that will get poisoned with the subsequent patch.

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.
