Regardless of the version of simplejson loaded in the master, load up
the ModuleResponder cache with our 2.4-compatible version.
To cope with simplejson being loaded due to modules like ec2_group that
try to import it before importing 'json', also update target.py to
remove it from the whitelist if a local 'json' module import succeeds.
Minify-safe files are marked with a magical "# !mitogen: minify_safe"
comment anywhere in the file, which activates the minifier. The result
is naturally cached by ModuleResponder, therefore lru_cache is gone too.
Given:
import os, mitogen
@mitogen.main()
def main(router):
c = router.ssh(hostname='k3')
c.call(os.getpid)
router.sudo(via=c)
SSH footprint drops from 56.2 KiB to 42.75 KiB (-23.9%)
Ansible "shell: hostname" drops 149.26 KiB to 117.42 KiB (-21.3%)
Ansible 2.3/Python 2.4 work revealed there is no guarantee a slow target
will have written the initial job status file out before a fast
controller makes an initial check for it. Therefore, provide AsyncRunner
with a sender it should send a message to when the initial job file has
been written.
As a bonus, also catch and report exceptions happening early in
AsyncRunner, rather than leaving them to end up in -vvv output.
Since Python 2.4 fork is so defective, we must use subprocesses for
mitogen_task_isolation=fork. This has plenty of upside, since the long
term goal is to dump forking altogether. This allows a gentle
introduction of its replacement.
This replaces the previous method for capping poorly Popen()
performance, instead entirely monkey-patching the problem function
rather than simply working around it.
* mitogen/ansible_mitogen should only generate ERROR-level logs in
log_path unless -vvv is enabled.
* Targets were accidentally configured to always have DEBUG set, causing
many log messages to be sent on the wire even though they would be
filtered in the master.
Closes#317.
Vanilla Ansible support expandvars-like expansions widely in a variety
of places. Prefer to whitelist those we need, rather than sprinkling
hellish semantics everywhere.
* ansible: use unicode_literals everywhere since it only needs to be
compatible back to 2.6.
* compat/collections.py: delete this entirely and rip out the parts of
functools that require it.
* Introduce serializable Kwargs dict subclass that translates keys to
Unicode on instantiation.
* enable_debug_logging() must set _v/_vv globals.
* cStringIO does not exist in 3.x.
* Treat IOLogger and LogForwarder input as latin-1.
* Avoid ResourceWarnings in first stage by explicitly closing fps.
* Fix preamble_size.py syntax errors.
The failed job result is likely to be "interrupted system call", and we
don't want that to overwrite the SIGALRM handler's "the task timed out",
so just discard it.
The controller must know the ID of the forked child in order to
propagate dependencies to it, so forking+starting the module run cannot
happen entirely on the target, without some additional mechanism to
wait-and-repropagate the deps as they arrive on the target.
Rework things so that init_child() also handles starting the fork parent,
and returns it along with the context's home directory in a single round
trip.
Now master knows the identity of the fork parent, it can directly create
fork children and call run_module_async() in them. This necessitates 2
roundtrips to start an asynchronous task.
This whole thing sucks and entirely needs simplified, but for now things
almost work, so keeping it.
connection.py:
* Expect ContextService to return the entire dict return value of
init_child(). Store the fork_contxt from the return value.
planner.py:
* Rework Planner to store the invocation as an instance attribute, to
simplify method calls.
* Add Planner.get_push_files() and Planner.get_module_deps().
* Add _propagate_deps() which takes a Planner and ensures the deps it
describes are sent to a (non forked or forked) context.
* Move async task logic out of target.py and into invoke() /
_invoke_*().
process.py:
* Services no longer need references to each other. planner.py handles
sending module deps with one extra RPC.
services.py:
* Return "init_child_result" key instead of simple "home_dir" key.
* Get rid of dep propagation from ModuleDepService, it lives in
planner.py now.
target.py:
* Get rid of async task start logic, lives in planner.py now.
planner.py:
* Rather than grant FileService access to a file for children, use
PushFileService to trigger deduplicating send of the file through
the hierarchy immediately.
* Send the complete list of Ansible module imports to the target so
runner.py knows which files and scripts must be loaded via
PushFileService prior to detaching.
runner.py:
* Teach NewStyleRunner to use the full module map to block until
everything is loaded prior to detach().
target.py:
* Delete old _get_file(), replace get_file() with get_small_file()
which uses PushFileService instead.
Closes#186
For lack of a better place to keep the client function, make it a
classmethod of FileService itself for now.
The old _get_file() is removed in a subsequent commit.
This may come back to bite later, but in the meantime it avoids shipping
up to 12KiB of junk metadata for every single task invocation.
For detachment (aka. async), we must ensure the target has two types of
preloads completed (modules and module_utils files) before detaching.
While adding support for non-new style module types, NewStyleRunner
began writing modules to a temporary file, and sys.argv was patched to
actually include the script filename. The argv change was never required
to fix any particular bug, and a search of the standard modules reveals
no argv users. Update argv[0] to be '', like an interactive interpreter
would have.
While fixing #210, new style runner began setting __file__ to the
temporary file path in order to allow apt.py to discover the Ansiballz
temporary directory. 5 out of 1,516 standard modules follow this
pattern, but in each case, none actually attempt to access __file__,
they just call dirname on it. Therefore do not write the contents of
file, simply set it to the path as it would exist, within a real
temporary directory.
Finally move temporary directory creation out of runner and into target.
Now a single directory exists for the duration of a run, and is emptied
by runner.py as necessary after each task invocation.
This could be further extended to stop rewriting non-new-style modules
in a with_items loop, but that's another step.
Finally the last bullet point in the documentation almost isn't a lie
again.
