I think we need to make sure we check other parts of OpenStack before enforcing limits to be positive. Literally, negative limits don't make sense, but negative values are used in other services to denote "unbound" limits [0].

To support services migrating in-service limits to keystone, we might have to consider supporting negative numbers. Although, I don't see a case where a value less than -1 is required (min -1).

I also think we will have to consider the enforcement model, too. For example, with strict-two-level hierarchical limits, a parent with a limit of 10 cores should prevent a child from having a limit of -1 on cores. In that same example, if a parent as a limit of -1 cores then a child may have a limit of -1 cores, where parent.limit >= child.limit.

Thoughts?

For this issue, -1 makes sense. That's a commonly used value to "disable" a setting, or in this case make it "unbound". The enforcement model might need to be a separate issue, that is a good point, we should likely be making sure a child can't be "unbound" when its parent is bound to a limit.

Marking as wont fix, the -1 is correct behavior for "no limit".

    Set Default and resource limit as defined schema

    Default_limit and Resource_limit should not be set
    as negative values or out of range. This patch
    addresses the above issue be checking the limit
    passed by the user should be minimum and maximum to
    the values defined in schema. If not, then raising
    the 400 bad request. Also added the test cases for the
    same.
