There is a race condition in nova-compute with the ironic virt driver as nodes get rebalanced. It can lead to compute nodes being removed in the DB and not repopulated. Ultimately this prevents these nodes from being scheduled to. The issue being addressed here is that if a compute node is deleted by a host which thinks it is an orphan, then the resource provider for that node might also be deleted. The compute host that owns the node might not recreate the resource provider if it exists in the provider tree cache. This change fixes the issue by clearing resource providers from the provider tree cache for which a compute node entry does not exist. Then, when the available resource for the node is updated, the resource providers are not found in the cache and get recreated in placement.

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:
