Some machines have system clocks which can fall behind (for instance,
a host without a CMOS battery like Raspberry Pi). When managing those
machines we have to workaround the fact that the zip format does not
handle file timestamps before 1980. The workaround is to substitute in
the timestamp from the controller instead of from the managed machine.
Fixes#18640
* Make sure include_role inherit variables from parent role
Setting the parent of task blocks generated by include_role after they
have been produced is not sufficient - it means the tasks don't have the
correct dependency chain set afterwards, and therefore, don't properly
inherit variables from outer roles.
In addition to manually setting the parents, pass the dep_chain when
compiling the role, such that variables are correctly imported.
Fixes#18540.
* Add tests for include_role
* Fix include_role variable inheritance for multiple parent levels
Commit 8b08a28c89 removed a
call to get_exception() that was needed. Without it, the fail_json
references an undefined variable ('exception') and throws an exception.
Add the get_exception() back in where needed and update references.
Now the proper module failure is returned.
Fixes#18628
* adds new connection plugin `network_cli` which builds on paramiko
* adds new plugin `terminal` used for manipulating network_cli terminals
* adds new field to play_context `network_os` settable as ansible_network_os
This commit adds the plugins necesary to establish a persistent cli connection
to network devices of ssh. It builds on the paramiko connection plugin
to create a shell environment that will persistent through ansible-connection.
The `newtork_cli` plugin then uses the network_os in the instance of
PlayContext to load the appropriate network OS environment plugin for
handling opening and closing of shells as well as privilege escalation.
* updates paramiko_ssh to auto add keys
* updates constants with new config options
This commit adds a new feature that will allow paramiko to automatically
accept and save a host ssh key. This feature is controlled by the
`host_key_auto_add` config setting in the paramiko section. The default
is False to maintain current functionality. It also includes a new
setting `look_for_keys` with the default to False for maintaining current the
current setting.
The timeout param was exposed to the socket connection but was not
enforced for commands. This update will now cause a command to timeout
based on the module parameter.
Fetch module uses fetch_file() from plugin/connection/ssh.py to
retrieve files from the remote hosts which in turns uses
_file_transport_command(self, in_path, out_path, sftp_action) being
sftp_action = 'get'
When using scp rather than sftp, sftp_action variable is not used
and the scp command is formed in a way that the file is always
sent to the remote machine
This patch fixes _file_transport_command() to correctly form the scp
swaping src and dest if sftp_action is 'get'

This forces basic auth to be used. Using the normal HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm
password manager from urllib2 fails since collins doesn't send a 401 retry on failure.
More about this can be seen here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2407126/python-urllib2-basic-auth-problem.
I added a small comment about the format of the host so others don't waste time like i did.
When determining which getter style to use for the object in question,
the BaseMeta class should look at both dict's to try and locate the method.
Fixes#18522
For setfacl on Solaris we need to specify permissions like r-x.
For chmod, we need to specify them as rx (r-x means to make the file
readable and *not* executable)
for solaris, add get_dmi_facts to get product_name fact, and update memtotal_mb to integer for consistency.
for hp-ux, user machinfo to get product_serial fact
The _fixup_perms2 method checks to see if the user that is being sudo'd
is an unprivileged user or root. If it is an unprivileged user, some
checks are done to see if becoming this user would lock the ssh user out
of temp files, among other things. If this check fails, an error prints
telling the user to check the documentation for becoming an unprivileged
user.
On some systems, the stderr prints out the unprivileged user the ssh
user was trying to become contained in smartquotes. These quotes aren't
in the ASCII range, and so when we're trying to call `str.format()` to
combine the stderr message with the error text we get a
UnicodeEncodeError as python can't coerce the smartquotes using the
system default encoding. By calling `to_native()` on the error message
we can ensure that the error message is a native string for the
`Exception` handling, as `Exception` messages need to be native strings
to avoid errors (byte strings in python2, and text strings in python3)
Fixes: #18444
