nova instance-action fails if project_id=NULL

[Belmiro Moreira]

nova instance-action fails if project_id=NULL

Starting in api version 2.62 "an obfuscated hashed host id is returned"
To generate the host_id it uses utils.generate_hostid() that uses (in this case) the project_id and the host of the action.

However, we can have actions without a user_id/project_id defined.
For example, when something happens outside nova API (user shutdown the VM inside the guest OS).
In this case we have an action "stop", without a user_id/project_id.

When running 2.62 it fails when performing:
nova instance-action <instance_uuid> <req_uuid>

no issues if using:
--os-compute-api-version 2.60

The trace in nova-api logs:

    Fix an error when generating a host ID

    When instance action events are created by periodic tasks,
    the project IDs of them become null (None).
    It causes an error when 'hostId' is generated
    in the "Show Server Action Details"
    (GET /servers/{server_id}/os-instance-actions/{request_id})
    API.

    Fix the issue by using the project ID of the server
    if the project ID of the event is None.
