Title:
nova allows booting two instances with the same neutron port in
parallel
Status in neutron:
In Progress
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
In Progress
Bug description:
It seems that to reproduce the problem we need a multi node deployment
with at least two nova-compute service.
To reproduce it do the following:
1) create a neutron port
2) boot two instances in parallel with that port
Sometimes both instances become ACTIVE in nova which is clearly wrong.

Based on the code we have an atomicity problem on the neutron REST API:
At https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/1db33ca6c248613cc8a76dcbbf78758001ee02d8/nova/network/neutronv2/api.py#L611 nova will check if the device_id of the neutron port are empty or not. Then nova sets the current instance_uuid to the device_id later at https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/1db33ca6c248613cc8a76dcbbf78758001ee02d8/nova/network/neutronv2/api.py#L692
So it is possible that two nova-compute processes check the port
status before one of them sets the device_id, so as a result both
nova-compute will think that the port are free to use and the slower
nova-compute will overwrite the device_id of the port.
