* pfexec become plugin: fix broken defaults for illumos/SmartOS
The pfexec become plugin has had incorrect defaults since it was
migrated from Ansible core, making it unusable on illumos without
manual workarounds:
1. become_flags defaulted to '-H -S -n' which are sudo flags.
pfexec does not accept any of these options, causing:
'exec: illegal option -- H'
2. wrap_exe defaulted to false. Unlike sudo, pfexec does not
interpret shell constructs internally. Since Ansible generates
compound commands (echo BECOME-SUCCESS-xxx ; python3), these
must be wrapped in /bin/sh -c for pfexec to execute them.
These issues were originally reported in 2016 (ansible/ansible#15642),
migrated to community.general as #3671, and partially fixed by PR #3889
in 2022 (which corrected quoting but not the defaults). Users have had
to work around this with explicit inventory settings ever since.
Changes:
- become_flags default: '-H -S -n' -> '' (empty)
- wrap_exe default: false -> true
- build_become_command: handle empty flags cleanly
- Updated tests to match corrected defaults
- Added test for custom flags
- Improved wrap_exe description to explain why it should be enabled
* Update changelog fragment with PR number
* Fix ruff formatting in test_pfexec.py
* Address review feedback from russoz
Remove redundant 'should generally be left enabled' description line
and simplify become command return by removing unnecessary flags
conditional.
* Fix unit test regexes for empty default flags
Match double space in test assertions when become_flags defaults to
empty string, consistent with doas, dzdo, and pbrun test patterns.
* pfexec become plugin: deprecate wrap_exe default rather than flipping
Changing the wrap_exe default from false to true is a breaking change
for the narrow case (e.g. ansible.builtin.raw) where the current default
does work, so deprecate instead: remove the default, emit a deprecation
warning when the option is unset, and treat that as false for now.
Build the become command with " ".join() so an empty become_flags no
longer produces a stray double space.
Tests set wrap_exe explicitly so the deprecation warning does not fire
during unit runs.
* pfexec become plugin: target 14.0.0 for wrap_exe deprecation
Per felixfontein's review, switch the deprecation target for the wrap_exe
default from community.general 15.0.0 to 14.0.0, and reword the option
description to mark the current default as deprecated rather than just
"changing in a future release".
* Adjust all __future__ imports:
for i in $(grep -REl "__future__.*absolute_import" plugins/ tests/); do
sed -e 's/from __future__ import .*/from __future__ import annotations/g' -i $i;
done
* Remove all UTF-8 encoding specifications for Python source files:
for i in $(grep -REl '[-][*]- coding: utf-8 -[*]-' plugins/ tests/); do
sed -e '/^# -\*- coding: utf-8 -\*-/d' -i $i;
done
* Remove __metaclass__ = type:
for i in $(grep -REl '__metaclass__ = type' plugins/ tests/); do
sed -e '/^__metaclass__ = type/d' -i $i;
done
* Experimental change from OpenIndiana
* resolve pfexec problem, by removing superfluous quotes
* reimplement "wrap_exe"
* remove spaces arround keyword argument assignment
* adapted pfexec unit test
* Try to fix quoting of test expression
* Fix quoting of test expression by replacing ' with "
* Add changelog fragment
* Move licenses to LICENSES/, run add-license.py, add LICENSES/MIT.txt.
* Replace 'Copyright:' with 'Copyright'
sed -i 's|Copyright:\(.*\)|Copyright\1|' $(rg -l 'Copyright:')
