aggregate instance extra specs filter incorrectly filter out qualified host

[Baodong (Robert) Li]

With the below extra_specs in a flavor:
  extra_specs | {"cpu_arch": "x86_64", "aggregate_instance_extra_specs:bm": "true"} |

The filter doesn't qualify a host that satisfies "aggregate_instance_extra_specs:bm": "true". This is because "cpu_arch": "x86_64" doesn't match any aggregates since "cpu_arch" is not defined in aggregates' metadata. This is wrong since the filter should only look at keys with initial scope being "aggregate_instance_extra_specs", and should not look at the key "cpu_arch" at all

Since you are set as assignee and this seems to be a valid bug, I switch
the status of it to "In Progress". Thanks for taking the effort to solve
this. If your plans change, just remove yourself as assignee and set the

Hi Aishwarya, I created a flavor that is associated with a host aggregate.

nova flavor-create bm-flavor auto 131072 836 48
nova flavor-key bm-flavor set cpu_arch=x86_64

nova aggregate-create bm-agg bm-zone
nova aggregate-add-host bm-agg ip6-devstack-41
nova aggregate-set-metadata bm-agg bm=true
nova flavor-key bm-flavor set aggregate_instance_extra_specs:bm=true

Hope it'll help you recreate the bug

Hi,
I tried to reproduce the bug in openstack mitaka version following the steps as mentioned.
Below is my observation:
By changing "nova flavor-key bm-flavor set cpu_arch=x86_64" to
"nova flavor-key bm-flavor set capabilities:cpu_info:arch=x86_64" we are not getting any error and the host is qualified.

In dashboard ,
we can set the same in dashboard as cpu_arch to x86 in flavors metadata->compute host capabilities-> architecture->x86_64 .
