On OS X with case-insensitive filenames, resolving
'ansible.module_utils.facts.base.Hardware' finds
'ansible.module_utils.facts.hardware/__init__.py', because
module_finder's procedure is completely wrong for resolving child
modules. Patch over it for now since it otherwise works for Ansible.
* 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.
It's not simple without executing a module to determine whether the
above refers to a submodule of a package, or an object defined within a
module.
Therefore detect when resolution of a child module yields the same path
as the parent, and ignore the result.
For "ansible -m setup" over a 25ms link, avoids 65 roundtrips and
reduces runtime from 5.7s to 4.1s (-28%).
For "ansible -m setup" over a simulated 250 ms link, reduces runtime
from m27.015s to 0m8.254s (-69%).
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.
The OpenShift installer modifies /etc/resolv.conf then tests the new
resolver configuration, however, there was no mechanism to reload
resolv.conf in our reuseable interpreter.
https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/blob/release-3.9/roles/openshift_web_console/tasks/install.yml#L137
This inserts an explicit call to res_init() for every new style
invocation, with an approximate cost of ~1usec on Linux since glibc
verifies resolv.conf has changed before reloading it.
There is little to be done for users of the thread-safe resolver APIs,
their state is hidden from us. If bugs like that manifest, whack-a-mole
style 'del sys.modules[thatmod]' patches may suffice.
Traced git log all the way back to beginning of time, and checked
Ansible versions starting Jan 2016. Zero clue where this came from, but
the convention suggests it came from Ansible at some point.
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.
Ideally it would be possible to specify a callback function, but this is
not possible for proxied connections. So simply provide the 3 most
useful modes, defaulting to the most secure.
Closes#127. Closes#134.
mitogen/master.py:
Annotate forwarded log entries with their original source, logger
name, and message.
ansible:
mark stderr in red with -vvv
Tempting to make this appaer 100% of the time, but some crappy
bashrcs may cause lots of junk to be printed.
This implements the first edition of Connection Delegation, where
delegating connection establishment is initially single-threaded.
ansible_mitogen/strategy.py:
ansible_mitogen/plugins/connection/*:
Begin splitting connection.Connection into subclasses, exposing them
directly as "mitogen_ssh", "mitogen_local", etc. connection types.
This is far from removing strategy.py, but it's a tiny start.
ansible_mitogen/connection.py:
* config_from_play_context() and config_from_host_vars() build up a
huge dictionary containing either more or less PlayContext contents,
or our best attempt at reconstructing a host's connection config
from its hostvars, where that config is not the current
WorkerProcess target.
They both produce the same format with the same keys, allowing
remaining code to have a single input format.
These dicts contain fields named after how Ansible refers to them,
e.g. "sudo_exe".
* _config_from_via() parses a basic connection specification like
"username@inventory_name" into one of the aforementioned dicts.
* _stack_from_config() produces a list of dicts describing the order
in which (Mitogen) connections should be established, such that each
element is proxied via= the previous element. The dicts produced by
this function use Mitogen keyword arguments, the former di.
These dicts contain fields named after how Mitogen refers to them,
e.g. "sudo_path".
* Pass the stack to ContextService, which is responsible for actual
setup of the full chain.
ansible_mitogen/services.py:
Teach get() to walk the supplied stack, establishing each connection
in turn, creating refounts for it before continuing.
TODO: refcounting is broken in a variety of cases.
This commit only uses it for the target.get_file() helper, which is only
used for transferring modules. The next commit wires it into the
Connection.transfer_file() API, which is the method the copy module
uses.
The module name comes from YAML via Jinja2.. it's always Unicode. Mixing
it into a temporary directory name produces a Unicode tempdir name,
which ends up in sys.argv via TemporaryArgv.
This is a partial fix, there are still at least 2 cases needing covered:
- In-progress connections must have CallError or similar sent to any
waiters
- Once connection delegation exists, it is possible for other worker
processes to be active (and in any step in the process), trying to
communicate with a context that we know can no longer be communicated
with. The solution to that isn't clear yet.
Additionally ensure root has /bin/bash shell in both Docker images.
And by "compatible" I mean "terrible". This does not implement async job
timeouts, but I'm not going to bother, upstream async implementation is
so buggy and inconsistent it resists even having its behaviour captured
in tests.
