* Fix changelog url now that stable has been branched
* Fix the lenth of the porting guide title now that the version is two digits
* play, block, task: New attribute forks
With this it is possible to limit the number of concurrent task runs.
forks can now be used in play, block and task. If forks is set in different
levels in the chain, then the smallest value will be used for the task.
The attribute has been added to the Base class as a list to easily provide
all the values that have been set in the different levels of the chain.
A warning has been added because of the conflict with run_once. forks will
be ignored in this case.
The forks limitation in StrategyBase._queue_task is not used for the free
strategy.

* Handle forks in free strategy
The forks attribute for the free strategy is handled in run in the free
StrategyModule. This is dony by counting the amount of tasks where the uuid
is the same as the current task, that should be queued next. If this amount
is bigger or equal to the forks attribute from the chain (task, block,
play), then it will be skipped to the next host. Like it is also done with
blocked_hosts.

* Install ansible-test
Modify the install script to install ansible-test and its supporting
code. Alternative to #60701 that doesn't change package_dir ansible for
fear that it might regress https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/10437
Also:
* No longer use package_data. Everything in the package dirs is going
to be installed. Anything that shouldn't be installed needs to be
moved elsewhere.
* modify the algorithm to store symlinks which are in the same tree
instead of same directory
* Add ansible_test files to package-data sanity test
* MANIFEST.in cleanups
* Add lib/ansible/config/*.yml
* Make most things in code directories (lib/ansible and test/lib/ansible_test/)
use explicit file extensions instead of wildcards for maintainability
* Exclude common file extensions that we don't want included in the code
directories
* Change package-data test to be more complete
* Now compares the repository, sdist, and install
* Compares both that everything in the sdist is in the repo and
everything in the install is in the sdist in addition to comparing that
everything in the repo that we want is in the install
* Leave out test artifacts
Only include the directory structure for test/results and test/cache not
any files that may have been generated by test runs
Remove test/utils files from the sdist as these are only needed for our CI
cleanup of docs in MANIFEST.in; getting rid of build files.
* Add the ability to output sdist and snapshot to specific directory
* Add a warning about modifying the heuristic to setup.py
* Address generated files
* Use make snapshot instead of sdist to generate changelog and man pages
and make sure they're included
* Ignore both the test/utils and generated test files (results, cache)
* Deal with Python3 __pycache__ byte code caches
* Don't check documentation, that isn't built for the sdist
* Restructure for clarity
* Add cli web docs to make clean
This was causing problems when attempting to test that the sdist didn't
have extra files
* Fix bug constructing python names from __pycache__ names
* Create a clean repo to work from
* Exclude test/legacy and be more explicit on extensions
* Exclude the legacy directory from sdist

* Add network_cli configurable options to support platform specific login menu
* Add network_cli configurable options to support configurable options for stdout
and stderr regex list
* Fix review comment
* Fix review comment
* Change formatting of the network/user_guide tables
* Tables had hardcoded line breaks to workaround a bug in the
read-the-docs theme. Change those so that they now flow according to
the browser size.
* Also switch away from grid tables to the simpler to create and read
simple tables
* Changes to table stylesheet
* valign all content, not just the first column. This becomes important
with more than two columns
* Set the font-weight to the first <p> element inside of the first
column. This allows us to simplify the first column when everything
there is the attribute name
* Change platform_index footnote from numbered to dagger symbol
The footnote notation was very odd to read. Try using a symbol for the
footnote instead of a number to see if that will clarify it. We can't
manually specify symbolled footnotes, though, so we have to emulate a
footnote with an internal link. This loses the backref to each place
that the footnote was used but since that was the portion which was hard
to read, perhaps that's for the best.
* Use an rst table instead of a raw html table
* Rst is easier to read so we want to use it wherever possible
* Fix the jinja2 filters which create links so that they do not include
extraneous whitespace in the URL
* Normalize description data before sending them to the templates
* Add writing new tests subsection to vmware_guidelines
Specifically address use of the prepare_vmware_tests role
Point to common vars for use by test writers

This will help prevent accidental merging of content to recently obsoleted directories when adding new files.
It may also help contributors who have modified obsolete files understand where their changes should now be made.
* Some framework for docs
* Separate CSS file for our site-specific CSS.
* Override the read-the-docs theme for tables so that tables don't
always horizontally scroll
* Add a |br| substitution that lets us line break inside of tables
* Add |_| non-breaking-space substitution which is also for formatting
tables
* Configure rstcheck to ignore all substitutions which are being added
by sphinx in the conf.py
* Fix table of auto interpreter options
The table was being hardcoded at a certain width to work around a
read-the-docs theme bug. Fix the bug instead and format the table using
better sphinx practices.
* Remove unused substitutions
We had substitutions defined that were never used in our documentation.
Remove those.
Also add to the rstcheck whitelist three substitutions which are defined
by sphinx itself, version, release, and today.
* Relocate module validator code and tests.
* Fix validate-modules entry point and imports.
* Fix paths and test entry points.
* Fix up unit tests.
* Fix shebang and execute bit.
* Relocate ansible-only sanity tests.
* Get "code smell" sanity tests from multiple dirs.
- `test/lib/ansible_test/_data/sanity/code-smell/` - General purpose tests used for both Ansible and Ansible Collections.
- `test/sanity/code-smell/` - Tests specific to Ansible, will not be used for Ansible Collections.
* Try to clarify the wording
People were confused by this paragraph. They read it as Ansible won't
auto-detect the python interpreter until 2.12. Tried to reword it so
that they'll see that Ansible will auto-detect it currently if
/usr/bin/python is not present and in the future will always autodetect.
* Format the other instances of /usr/bin/python using :command:
Refactor vmware_cluster into several modules (vmware_cluster, vmware_cluster_drs, vmware_cluster_ha and vmware_cluster_vsan) as discussed in #58023.
vmware_cluster lacks a lot of configuration options for DRS, HA and vSAN. Implementing them
all in vmware_cluster would make the module hard to maintain. Therefore, splitting it into several
modules and implementing the missing configuration options in them seems a good idea to me.
This is step one, refactoring vmware_cluster into several modules. Step two, implementing more
configuration options for DRS, HA and vSAN, will follow.
* Render elements in module doc and sanity test for suboptions
* Add support to render module elements value in ansible-doc output
module html
* Add validate-module sanity test of sunoptions.
* Add current validate module failures to ignore list
* Fix CI failure
* fix rebase conflict
* Fix CI issues
* Fix review comments
* Add validate-modules failure in ignore list
- Use predictable VM name during the tests (test_vm1, test_vm2 and
test_vm2). This to simplify the teardown of the newly created resource
before the next test.
- Update the documentation to explain the new requirement
- Avoid VM creation with `with_items` when it's not mandatory. This to:
- speed up the test execution, our hypervisors have limited resources
- simplify the teardown
- Remove `create_d1_c1_f0_env.yml`, the test was just testing how Ansible
pass environment variables.
- Correct the name for the `f0` variable (`f1`)
- Fix the DVS tests, the hosts can now reach the dvswitch1 vswitch
- Provision the VM with a poweroff status, this to improve the
idempotency and sleep up the tests
- Avoid the use of `prepare_vmware_tests` to prepare virtual machines
when we just need one machine
* Add sanity test to ensure all non-py files are installed

Fixes: #58370
* Added additional tests cases and fixed documentation changes
* Code refactoring and added tests for better test coverage
- Removed db_exists usage from most of the code. Used existence_list
and non_existence_list instead
- Added additional tests to cover all scenarios w.r.t creation and deletion
on multiple databases

* Minor fix
* Minor fix - create check mode test

* Updated porting guide, added RETURN block
* Minor identation fix
* Added validation to check if databases are dumped
* Fix dump_keywords to require attribute docs
* Change the documentation commands to make definition files positional
Since the definition files are mandatory, make them positional
parameters instead of options.
We have some common code used by several docs scripts. Migrate that
into the build-only shared code repository.
* Move lib/ansible/utils/_build_helpers.py to the directory for common
build code
* Migrate docs/bin/dump_config.py to a build-ansible subcommand
* Migrate dump_keywords to the build-ansible framework
* Make the script more maintainable by using functions and good
variable names
* Port to Python3 idioms
* Fix bug so that private attributes will be undocumented
* Move generate_man to a build-ansible subcommand
* Port plugin_formatter to a build-ansible subcommand
* Rework command_plugins so that docs scripts can target Python-3.4+ and
releng-only subcommands can use more recent versions of Python.
The architecture is now that command_plugins/* need to be importable
on Python-3.4. The init_parsers() method needs to run on Python-3.4.
But the main() method can utilize features of more recent Python as
long as it fits within those parameters.
* Update docs build requirements
Port the plugin_formatter to build-ansible framework
ansible-test only passes files which have the .py suffix for sanity
tests on python files. This change will allow sanity tests to run on
the Python files in hacking/
* Rename test-module to test-module.py
* Symlink test-module for backwards compat since end users may be using
test-module
* Fix test-module sanity errors that are now triggered
* Rename ansible_profile to ansible-profile.py
* Rename build-ansible
The metaclass boilerplate is safe to apply en masse. The future import
boilerplate needs code to be inspected to be sure that there aren't any
py2isms that need to be fixed. Split these two checks so that we can
fix them independently
Be explicit about which files are grandfathered so we can fix them up one by one

##### SUMMARY
This page is very confusing and may suggest, that there is still a `serial` strategy (like it used to), but now it is just a directive of `linear` strategy. Multiple people reported this to me and it needs change.

Ansible galaxy role download checked for `.tar.gz`, but `tarfile.is_tarfile(...)` can identify and open any valid tarfile. This change uses transparent stream compression to make `.tar.gz` and `.tar.bz2` formats valid with python 2.6.x/2.7.x (as well as `.tar.xz` with python 3.x).
* Add a few examples of how to correctly use `regex_replace` filter
because it behaves differently on different Python versions when using
regex qualifiers that can match an empty string (e.g. '*', '?', etc).
Often when I am helping others learn Ansible, they are using nodes spun up on Amazon/Google/etc. where private key files (pem) are needed. Mentioning just a bit more on how to handle those private key files on the intro_getting_started page will help more folks get started faster.
I even reviewed the changes with my learning team and they all agreed this helped clarify immediately for them how to really get started with Ansible from a practical perspective.

* Refactor, implement code review changes
* Moved doc fragment file to new layout
* Added explicit types for all module parameters, updated copyrights + raw string for block text.
* Added idempotency logic to openssl_pkcs12
Also decoupled the 'parse' and 'generate' function from the file write
as they are now used in different places that do not need the file to be
written to disk.
* Added idempotency tests for openssl_pkcs12
Also adds a new test for pkcs12 files with multiple certificates
* Regenerate if parsed file is invalid
* pkcs12_other_certificates check was wrong
* Updated ca_certificates to other_certificates
ca_certificates is left as an alias to other_certificates;
friendlyname depends on private key, so it will be ignored while
checking for idempotency if the pkey is not set;
idempotency check only checks for correct certs in the stack
* use different keys for different certs
* Added other_certificates in module docs
* Added changelog and porting guide
* removed unrelated porting guide entry
* renamed ca_cert* occurrence with other_cert
This reverts commit 85d836171b.
