This switches to using selinux library calls instead of parsing the
output of sestatus. This fixes issue #428 where the output was slightly
different than expected on F17. Tested against debian (non-selinux),
centos5, centos6, and fedora17.
The ohai and facter modules use /usr/bin/logger to log the fact that
they have been invoked. I added 'import os' to the ping module
so that it could have the same syslog statements as the other modules.
I separated the condensed:
shlex.split(open(argfile, 'r').read())
into two separate statements similar to the other modules.
This collects various facts from the host so that it isn't necessary to
have facter or ohai installed. It gets various platform/distribution
facts, information about the type of hardware, whether a virtual
environment and what type, assorted interface facts, and ssh host public
keys. Most facts are flat. The two exceptions are 'processor' and all
interface facts. Interface facts are presented as:
ansible_lo : {
"macaddress": "00:00:00:00:00:00",
"ipv4": { "address": "127.0.0.1", "netmask": "255.0.0.0" },
"ipv6": [
{ "address": "::1", "prefix": "128", "scope": "host" }
]
}
as well as template files. PLUS, variables are now expressed in playbooks without having
to know about the setup task, which means playbooks are simpler to read now.
