When trying to copy files onto a Virtio-9p filesystem[1][2] int the host
using something like the template module, ansible throws an error that
says something like:
invalid selinux context: [Errno 95] Operation not supported
Adding 9p to the list of exceptional filesystems forces ansible to not
try to set an SELinux context on copied files.
[1] such as one mounted in a qemu VM, using:
# http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/9p_virtio
qemu-kvm [...] -virtfs local,id=apps_dev,path=/host/dir,security_model=passthrough,mount_tag=host_dir

* How to document your module
* Remove blank lines
* note:: Versions should be strings
* requirements on the host that executes the module.
* option names & option values
* Feedback
* formatting
* Scott's final feedback
The list of ignored by default extensions is outdated in doc for dynamic
inventories, and this option is completely missing from configuration
file overview.
* Add missing support for -CertValidityDays
For some reason the -CertValidityDays option was not being used in the certificates we created.
This fixes#10439
* Possible fix
* We cannot use New-SelfSignedCertificate on 2012R2 and earlier
As suggested by @jhawkesworth
* Make the module_utils path configurable
* Add a config value to define the path site module_utils files
* Handle module_utils that do not have source as an error
* Make an integration test for module_utils envvar working
* Add documentation for the ANSIBLE_MODULE_UTILS config option/envvar
* Add it to the sample ansible.cfg
* Add it to intro_configuration.
* Also modify intro_configuration to place envvars on equal footing with
the config options (will need to document the envvar names in the
future)
* Also add the ANSIBLE_LIBRARY use case from
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/15432 so we can close out
that bug.
* A method to validate and alter the ssh control path automatically.
* First tries %C to use the shortened hash
* On further failure, it removes section by section from the original path
* Fix hostname
* Implement bcoca's suggested changes
* Remove unused option
* Remove unused class var
* Use to_string to avoid unicode error
* Switch from to_text to to_bytes
* Update the example config for the new controlpath feature
Instead of asking the user to type something prior to running the script, why not allow -Verbose on the command line directly.
Also log important events to EventLog, so that it can be traced e.g. when running via RunOnce mechanism.
The documentation is updated as well.
can be per run or per host, also aggregate or not
set_stats action plugin as reference implementation
added doc stub
display stats in calblack
made custom stats showing configurable
* ANSIBLE_SSH_CONTROL_PATH_DIR option added
This removes the hardcoded value ( $HOME/.ansible/cp ) from ssh.py.
User is able to change the ControlPath directory ( the one that replaces %(directory)s ).
Fixes#18325
* Added config option in ansible.cfg
- Remove shebangs from:
- ini files
- unit tests
- module_utils
- plugins
- module_docs_fragments
- non-executable Makefiles
- Change non-modules from '/usr/bin/python' to '/usr/bin/env python'.
- Change '/bin/env' to '/usr/bin/env'.
Also removed main functions from unit tests (since they no longer
have a shebang) and fixed a python 3 compatibility issue with
update_bundled.py so it does not need to specify a python 2 shebang.
A script was added to check for unexpected shebangs in files.
This script is run during CI on Shippable.
Implement tag and skip_tag handling in the CLI() class. Change tag and
skip_tag command line options to be accepted multiple times on the CLI
and add them together rather than overwrite.
* Make it configurable whether to merge or overwrite multiple --tags arguments
* Make the base CLI class an abstractbaseclass so we can implement
functionality in parse() but still make subclasses implement it.
* Deprecate the overwrite feature of --tags with a message that the
default will change in 2.4 and go away in 2.5.
* Add documentation for merge_multiple_cli_flags
* Fix galaxy search so its tags argument does not conflict with generic tags
* Unit tests and more integration tests for tags
If the sftp fails, roll over to scp by default. This saves users
from having to know about the scp_if_ssh method when sftp is broken
on the remote host.
This makes Ansible no longer set LC_ALL for remote systems. It is up to
the individual modules to set LC_ALL if they need it for screenscraping
the output from a program.
This is the 2.2 followup for #15138
AIX ssh does not seem to like compression, moved it to ssh_args
to allow making it configurable. Note that those using ssh_args
already will need to add it explicitly to keep compression.
