If we assume that all of our tables are filled up with zeroes for those deleted columns, because that’s the default, this **wipes the whole table clean**. How do the tests pass? Well the tests are in test_db_api->ArchiveTestCase, and actually, they don’t. But they don’t fail every time, because the test suite here runs with a database that is almost completely empty anyway, so the broken archival routine doesn’t find too many rows to blow away except for the rows in “instance_types”, which it only finds sometimes because the tests are only running it with a small number of things to delete and the order of the tables is non-deterministic. I’ve posted the bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1431571 where I started out not knowing much about how this worked except that my tests were failing, and slowly stumbled my way to come to this conclusion. A patch is at https://review.openstack.org/#/c/164009/, where we look at the actual Python-side default. However I’d recommend that we just hardcode the zero here, since that’s how our soft-delete columns work.
Nice detective work. I imagine there was some hair pulling on that one...
