This wishlist bug has been open a year without any activity. I'm going to move it to "Opinion / Wishlist", which is an easily-obtainable queue of older requests that have come on. If you decide to work on this consider using a blueprint [1] (maybe with a spec [2]). I'll recommend to read [3] if not yet done.

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1403276 Title: Some image properties request may override flavor request Status in OpenStack Compute (nova): Opinion Bug description: Currently, if the image properties include hw_serial_port_count, hw_cpu_max_sockets, hw_cpu_max_cores or hw_cpu_max_threads, but the flavor does not specify the corresponding request, the image request will be used to boot the instance. This has potential issue because if flavor has no statement, the image request should fail. Otherwise, it will become a shortcut to resource request.
