Symlinks inside of the chroot were failng because we weren't able to
determine if they were pointing to a real file or not. We could write
some complicated code to walk the symlink path taking into account where
the root of the tree is but that could be fragile. Since this is just
a sanity check, instead we just assume that the chroot is fine if we
find that /bin/sh in the chroot is a symlink. Can revisit if it turns
out that many chroots have a /bin/sh that's a broken symlink.
Fixes#16097
The junos network module will now properly use the ssh key file if its
passed from the playbook to authenticate to the remote device. Prior
to this commit, the ssh keyfile was ignored.
When setuptools installs a python module (as is done via python setup.py
install) It puts the module into a subdirectory of site-packages and
then creates an entry in easy-install.pth to load that directory. This
makes it difficult for Ansiballz to function correctly as the .pth file
overrides the sys.path that the wrapper constructs. Using
sitecustomize.py fixes this because sitecustomize overrides the
directories handled in .pth files.
Fixes#16187
* Fix: create retry_files_save_path if it doesn't exist
Ansible documentation states that retry_files_save_path directory will be
created if it does not already exist. It currently doesn't, so this patch
fixes it :)
* Use makedirs_safe to ensure thread-safe dir creation
@bcoca suggested to use the makedirs_safe helper function :)
(cherry picked from commit 828b73dd2d)
The changes to exclude implicit localhosts from group patterns exposed
the bug that we sometimes create multiple implicit localhosts, which
caused some bugs with things like includes, where the host was used as
an entry into a dict, so having multiple meant that the incorrect host
(with a different uuid) was found and includes were not executed for
implicit localhosts.
This allows the PlaybookExecutor to receive more information regarding
what happened internal to the TaskQueueManager and strategy, to determine
things like whether or not the play iteration should stop.

The nxos cli provider would not properly handle ssh key files passed
from the playbook task. The ssh_keyfile argument is now properly
passed to the ssh authentication method
This fix address the bug reported in #3862
Also updates doc on variable precedence, as it was incorrect for the
order of play vars/vars_prompt/vars_files in relation to set_fact and
registered variables.
Fixes#14702Fixes#14826
Since we now use the PlayIterator to carry forward failures from previous
play executions, in the event that some hosts which had previously failed
are not in the current inventory we now create a stub state instead of
raising an error.
Exception was raised when trying to use ssh-agent for authentication to
ios devices. This fix enables ssh-agent and enable use of password
protected ssh keys. There is one additional fix to capture authentication
exceptions nicely.
* In the VariableManager, we were not properly tracking if a file
had already been loaded, so we continuously append data to the end
of the list there for host and group vars, meaning large sets of data
are duplicated multiple times
* In the inventory, we were merging the host/group vars with the vars
local to the host needlessly, as the VariableManager already handles that.
This leads to needless duplication of the data and makes combining the
vars in VariableManager take even longer.
Ansible excessively checks the file system for the potential presence of
`group_vars` and `host_vars` files.
For large numbers of groups this leads to combinatorial performance
issues.
This commit generates a set of group_vars and host_vars filenames using
`os.listdir()` in every possible location and then checks against the sets
before making a stat of the file system.
Also included in this commit is caching of the base directory lookup
for the inventory.
Has already been transferred as a tempfile.
This fixes the error in https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/16125
but there may be higher level issues that should be fixed as well (other
modules might be able to cause status fields like failed and changed to
return a censored string instead of a bool). So leaving 16125 open for
now.
Child blocks (whether nested or via includes) don't get a copy of the
dependency chain, so the above method should be used to ensure the block
looks at its parents dep chain.
Fixes#15996
* Catch DistributionNotFound when pycrypto is absent
On Solaris 11, module `pkg_resources` throws `DistributionNotFound` on import if `cryptography` is installed but `pycrypto` is not. This change causes that situation to be handled gracefully.
I'm not using Paramiko or Vault, so I my understanding is that I don't
need `pycrpto`. I could install `pycrypto` to make the error go away, but:
- The latest released version of `pycrypto` doesn't build cleanly on Solaris (https://github.com/dlitz/pycrypto/issues/184).
- Solaris includes an old version of GMP that triggers warnings every time Ansible runs (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/6941). I notice that I can silence these warnings with `system_warnings` in `ansible.cfg`, but not installing `pycrypto` seems like a safer solution.
* Ignore only `pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound`, not other exceptions.
With some earlier changes, continuing to forward failed hosts on
to the iterator with each TQM run() call was causing plays with
max_fail_pct set to fail, as hosts which failed in previous plays
were counting those old failures against the % calculation.
Also changed the linear strategy's calculation to use the internal
failed list, rather than the iterator, as this now represents the
hosts failed during the current run only.
As noted in the comment, the TQM may be used for more than one play. As such,
after creating the new PlayIterator object it is necessary to mark any failed
hosts from previous calls to run() as failed in the iterator, so they are
properly skipped during any future calls to run().
By default the `Shell` class disables ssh agents. The `junos_netconf`
module uses this class, but doesn't re-enable agents.
Here it's explicitly enabled again, so an ssh agent can be used to
connect to and configure Junos devices.
Since this is now the default package manager, it got moved
to another location on Netbsd :
netbsd# type pkgin
pkgin is a tracked alias for /usr/pkg/bin/pkgin
netbsd# uname -a
NetBSD netbsd.example.org 6.1.4 NetBSD 6.1.4 (GENERIC) amd64
But since the package manager is also used outside of NetBSD, we
have to keep the /opt/local path too.
The change is needed to support the multiple include statements
inside the jinja2 template file, as in '{% include ['another.j2'] %}'.
statement. I need this capability, as OpenSwitch `switch` role needs
to handle multiple *.j2 files and supporting the include statement
inside jinja2 file is essential, otherwise I need to combine multiple
template files into a single file, which easily causes conflicts
between developers working on different parts of the teamplate, ports
and interface.
Prior to this patch, the retry/until logic would fail any task that
succeeded if it took all of the alloted retries to succeed. This patch
reworks the retry/until logic to make things more simple and clear.
Fixes#15697
When using run_once, there is only one dict of facts so passing that
to the VariableManager results in the fact cache containing the same
dictionary reference for all hosts in inventory. This patch fixes that
by making sure we pass a copy of the facts dict to VariableManager.
Fixes#14279
Previously the changed code was necessary, however it is now problematic
as we've started using the is_failed() method in other places in the code.
Additional changes at the strategy layer should make this safe to remove
now.
Fixes#15625
In VariableManager, we fetch the params specifically in the next step,
so including them in the prior step is unnecessary and could lead to things
being overridden in an improper order.
In Block, we should not be getting the params for the role as they are
included earlier via the VariableManager.

Applies conditional forwarding to all tasks/roles within the included playbook.
The existing line only applies forwarded conditionals to the main Task block, and misses pre_, post_, and roles.
Typo ::
Made a selection mistake when I copied over the one line change
* Update GCE module to use JSON credentials
* Ensure minimum libcloud version when using JSON crednetials for GCE
* Relax langauge around libcloud requirements
In the free strategy, we mark a host as blocked when it has work to do
(the PlayIterator returns a task) to prevent multiple tasks from being sent
to the host. However, we check for role duplicates after setting the blocked
flag, but were not clearing that when the task was skipped leading to an
infinite loop. This patch corrects that by clearing the blocked flag when
the task is skipped.
Fixes#15681
In `lib/ansible/executor/play_iterator.py`, ansible sets a host's
`_gathered_facts` property to `True` without checking to see if there
are any tasks to be executed. In the event that the entire play is
skipped, `_gathered_facts` will be `True` even though the `setup`
module was never run.
This patch modifies the logic to only set `_gathered_facts` to `True`
when there are tasks to execute.
Closes#15744.
Issue #15633 observes that a meta: inventory_refresh task causes the playbook
to exit. An inventory refresh flushes all caches and rebuilds all host
objects, assigning new UUIDs to each. These new host UUIDs currently fail to
match those on host objects stored for restrictions in the inventory, causing
the playbook to exit for having no hosts to run further tasks against.
This changeset attempts to address this issue by storing host restrictions
by name, and comparing inventory host names against these names when applying
restrictions in get_hosts.
