Ensure that initial setup in creating the key directory for ansible
accelerate mode keys, and generation/storage of the key for a
particular host are completed in a multiprocess safe manner.
Creating directories/files and then assigning permissions and contents
to them means that paths may exist and satisfy the os.path.exists()
method in python for other processes before they are usable.
Use a combination of locking around operations with use of unique named
files and an OS file system move to ensure that the conditions of
checking whether a file or directory exists, where it is potentially
created by another thread, will only succeed when the file has both the
correct contents and permissions.
Fixes#13850
* Could only have one alias before. Subsequent aliases overrode the
previous ones. Now multiple aliases work.
* Fix BLACKLISTED_MODULES. Previously, modules were listed in the
generated documentation despite being blacklisted
* Deprecated modules form extras were showing the (E) tag and not the
(D) tag. Reversed that now (Probably not necessary to also show the
E tag).
* Sort the deprecated modules alphabetically in the Category docs as
well as the list of all modules
* Optimization: Previously rendered the modules to rst twice once in all
group and once in individual categories. Fixed to only render them
once.
* Add fireball to blacklist and remove async_status (as people need to
use that).
A few of the docs fragments have the available choices for some params
defined as "BOOLEANS". Because choices accepts a list, it treats
"BOOLEANS" as an iterable and then generates a list composed of each
letter.
Instead, define the available choices as a list of `['yes', 'no']`,
as is common in most other modules.
For example:
$ ansible web --list-hosts | head -n1
hosts (7):
ERROR! Unexpected Exception: [Errno 32] Broken pipe
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/lamby/git/private/lamby-ansible2/.venv/bin/ansible", line 114, in <module>
display.display("to see the full traceback, use -vvv")
File "/home/lamby/git/private/lamby-ansible2/.venv/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/utils/display.py", line 133, in display
sys.stdout.flush()
IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe
Such a pipe target will close up shop early when its seen enough input,
causing ansible to print an ugly traceback.

This is the same fix we applied to v1.9 in PR #14565, however it does not fix#14678 completely !
The dictionaries are not being merged as tey are on v1.9.
This is related to #14559, but only the part for Ansible v2.0
This commit makes merging empty dicts, or equal dicts more efficient.
I noticed that while debugging merge_hash a lot of merges related to empty dictionaries and sometimes also identical dictionaries.
The module docs and vault changes solve issues where tracebacks can
happen. The galaxy changes are mostly refactoring to be more pythonic
with a small chance that a unicode traceback could have occurred there
without the changes. The change in __init__.py when we actually call
the pager makes things more robust but could hide places where we had
bytes coming in already so I didn't want to change that without auditing
where the text was coming from.
Fixes#14178
The provider argument accepts the set of device common arguments as a
dict object. Individual connection arguments can still be included and
take priority over the provider argument. This update includes additions
to the nxos doc fragment
New argument `provider` added to the ios shared module that provides
the ability to pass all of the common ios arguments as a dict. This commit
includes some minor bugfixes and refactoring of names. It also includes
udpates to the ios documentation fragment for the new argument
Adds a new argument `provider` to the eos shared module and updates the
eos doc fragment. This commit includes some additional minor fixes and
code refactors for naming conventions. The `provider` argument allows the
shared module arguments to be passed as a dict object instead of having
to pass each argument invididually.
This commit adds a new argument `provider` to the iosxr shared module that
allows common connection parameters to be passed as a dict object. The
constraints on the args still applies. This commit also updates the iosxr
doc fragment.
