[Bug 1805679] [NEW] hwrng only works if the flavor property is also set

 

Public bug reported:


This bug tracker is for errors with the documentation, use the following
as a template and remove or add fields as you see fit. Convert [ ] into
[x] to check boxes:

- [x] This doc is inaccurate in this way: Flavor restrictions not stated
- [ ] This is a doc addition request.
- [ ] I have a fix to the document that I can paste below including example: input and output. 

If you have a troubleshooting or support issue, use the following
resources:

 - Ask OpenStack: http://ask.openstack.org
 - The mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org
 - IRC: 'openstack' channel on Freenode

Based on our tests, the hw_rng_model image property only has an effect
when the flavor also has the HWRNG enabled via hw_rng:allowed.

The code at
https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/nova/tree/nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py#n4704
shows both are needed.

I would therefore suggest to include in the image properties
documentation that the hw_rng_model image property is only effective if
the flavor also has hw_rng:allowed set to true.
