Public bug reported:

When applying an IP address filter to a servers query, the IP address
filtering is manually applied in the compute API against the servers that are
retrieved from the DB.

The problem is when a limit is supplied; in this case, the IP address filter
is only applied to the page of servers that are returned from the DB. For
example, assume that you have 3 instances that match a given IP address filter
and that those instances are returned from the DB in the 5th, 20th, and 100th
positions. If you supply this IP address filter with a limit of 10, then only
a single server is returned (the one in the 5th position). In this case, all
3 instances should have been returned.

A simple example (note that I manually added --limit to the CLI):

* List all 3 serves:

 $ nova list --sort display_name:asc
 +--------------------------------------+-----------+------------------+
 | ID                                   | Name      | Networks         |
 +--------------------------------------+-----------+------------------+
 | 65515d56-6103-43dd-ac58-238baabda422 | Instance1 | private=10.0.0.2 |
 | c9ab681f-e930-4e4e-814d-d6f1cf084480 | Instance2 | private=10.0.0.3 |
 | f1d6d9ef-e31d-46b5-86a2-da34b45007b0 | Instance3 | private=10.0.0.4 |
 +--------------------------------------+-----------+------------------+

* Limit the list to a page size of 1:
 
 $ nova list --sort display_name:asc --limit 1
 +--------------------------------------+-----------+------------------+
 | ID                                   | Name      | Networks         |
 +--------------------------------------+-----------+------------------+
 | 65515d56-6103-43dd-ac58-238baabda422 | Instance1 | private=10.0.0.2 |
 +--------------------------------------+-----------+------------------+

* Supply only an IP address filter:

 $ nova list --sort display_name:asc --ip 10.0.0.3
 +--------------------------------------+-----------+------------------+
 | ID                                   | Name      | Networks         |
 +--------------------------------------+-----------+------------------+
 | c9ab681f-e930-4e4e-814d-d6f1cf084480 | Instance2 | private=10.0.0.3 |
 +--------------------------------------+-----------+------------------+

* Supply both an IP address filter and a limit (should show a single
server):

 $ nova list --sort display_name:asc --ip 10.0.0.3 --limit 1
 +----+------+----------+
 | ID | Name | Networks |
 +----+------+----------+
 +----+------+----------+

Title:
  IP filtering is not accurate when used with limit
