Brian Rosmaita bc29084012 Absolutely-non-inheritable image properties
Inheritance of image properties from the image an instance was booted
from to an image created from that instance is governed by the
non_inheritable_image_properties configuration option.  However, there
are some image properties (for example, those used for image signature
validation or to reference a cinder encryption key id) which it makes
no sense to inherit under any circumstances.  Additionally,
misconfiguration of the non-inheritable properties can lead to data
loss under the circumstances described in Bug #1852106.  So it would
be better if these properties were not subject to configuration.

The initial set of absolutely non-inheritable image properties
consists of those associated with cinder encryption keys and image
signature validation.

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.
