+-------------------------------+---------------+---------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Major Changes ------------- community.hrobot ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - firewall - Hetzner added output rules support to the firewall.

Hetzner deprecated configuring the firewall by ``server_ip``, so using ``server_ip`` will stop at some point in the future (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hrobot/pull/77). community.routeros ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - api_modify - adapt data for API paths ``ip dhcp-server network`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/156). - api_modify - add support for API path ``snmp community`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/159). - api_modify - add support for ``trap-interfaces`` in API path ``snmp`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/159). - api_modify - add support to disable IPv6 in API paths ``ipv6 settings`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/158). - api_modify - support API paths ``ip firewall layer7-protocol`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/153). - command - workaround for extra characters in stdout in RouterOS versions between 6.49 and 7.1.5 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/issues/62, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/161). community.vmware ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - vmware_migrate_vmk - Improve error handling (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/issues/1118). - vmware_tag - Allow to use category names for tag management (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/issues/1614). - vmware_tag_manager - Improve performance of tag attachments and detachments (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/issues/1603). - vmware_tools - ansible_vmware_guest_uuid added for easier use of vmware_tools connection plugin with vmware_vm_inventory plugin - vmware_vm_info - Add several parameters to skip discovering some information (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/issues/1682) f5networks.f5_modules ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - bigip_firewall_rule - the source and destination items can be set to `any` and port type is changed from int to str - bigip_policy_rule - added host_contains parameter to http_host condition type - bigip_sys_global - added gui_audit parameter to control audit log for changes through webui netapp.ontap ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - na_ontap_rest_cli - returns changed only for verbs POST, PATCH and DELETE. - na_ontap_security_config - Added support for protocol version ``TLSV1.3``. - na_ontap_security_config - Replaced private cli with REST API for GET and PATCH. - na_ontap_security_config - new option ``supported_cipher_suites`` added in REST. - na_ontap_snapmirror - new option ``identity_preservation`` added in REST. - na_ontap_snapmirror - wait 600 seconds for snapmirror creation to complete in REST. - na_ontap_user_role - ``command_directory_name`` requires 9.11.1 or later with REST. - na_ontap_user_role - add support for rest-role ``privileges.access`` choices ``read_create``, ``read_modify`` and ``read_create_modify``, supported only with REST and requires ONTAP 9.11.1 or later versions. purestorage.fusion ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - errors_py - added opt-in global exception handler which produces simpler and cleaner messages on REST errors - removed dependency on Python `netaddr` package vmware.vmware_rest ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - set version in galaxy.yml to allow install from git repo Breaking Changes / Porting Guide -------------------------------- Ansible-core ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - ansible-test - Integration tests which depend on specific file permissions when running in an ansible-test managed host environment may require changes. Tests that require permissions other than ``755`` or ``644`` may need to be updated to set the necessary permissions as part of the test run. Deprecated Features ------------------- amazon.aws ~~~~~~~~~~ - support for passing both profile and security tokens through a mix of environment variables and parameters has been deprecated and support will be removed in release 6.0.0. After release 6.0.0 it will only be possible to pass either a profile or security tokens, regardless of mechanism used to pass them.

+-------------------------------+---------------+---------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Major Changes ------------- Ansible-core ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - ansible-test - Docker Desktop on WSL2 is now supported (additional configuration required). - ansible-test - Docker and Podman are now supported on hosts with cgroup v2 unified. Previously only cgroup v1 and cgroup v2 hybrid were supported. - ansible-test - Podman now works on container hosts without systemd. Previously only some containers worked, while others required rootfull or rootless Podman, but would not work with both. Some containers did not work at all. - ansible-test - Podman on WSL2 is now supported. - ansible-test - When additional cgroup setup is required on the container host, this will be automatically detected. Instructions on how to configure the host will be provided in the error message shown. ansible.windows ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Set the minimum Ansible version supported by this collection to Ansible 2.12 chocolatey.chocolatey ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - win_chocolatey - Allow users to select the TLS versions used for bootstrapping Chocolatey installation. Minor Changes ------------- Ansible-core ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - ansible-test - A new ``audit`` option is available when running custom containers. This option can be used to indicate whether a container requires the AUDIT_WRITE capability. The default is ``required``, which most containers will need when using Podman. If necessary, the ``none`` option can be used to opt-out of the capability. This has no effect on Docker, which always provides the capability. - ansible-test - A new ``cgroup`` option is available when running custom containers. This option can be used to indicate a container requires cgroup v1 or that it does not use cgroup. The default behavior assumes the container works with cgroup v2 (as well as v1). - ansible-test - Additional log details are shown when containers fail to start or SSH connections to containers fail. - ansible-test - Connection failures to remote provisioned hosts now show failure details as a warning. - ansible-test - Containers included with ansible-test no longer disable seccomp by default. - ansible-test - Failure to connect to a container over SSH now results in a clear error. Previously tests would be attempted even after initial connection attempts failed. - ansible-test - Integration tests can be excluded from retries triggered by the ``--retry-on-error`` option by adding the ``retry/never`` alias. This is useful for tests that cannot pass on a retry or are too slow to make retries useful. - ansible-test - More details are provided about an instance when provisioning fails. - ansible-test - Reduce the polling limit for SSHD startup in containers from 60 retries to 10. The one second delay between retries remains in place. - ansible-test - SSH connections from OpenSSH 8.8+ to CentOS 6 containers now work without additional configuration. However, clients older than OpenSSH 7.0 can no longer connect to CentOS 6 containers as a result. The container must have ``centos6`` in the image name for this work-around to be applied. - ansible-test - SSH shell connections from OpenSSH 8.8+ to ansible-test provisioned network instances now work without additional configuration. However, clients older than OpenSSH 7.0 can no longer open shell sessions for ansible-test provisioned network instances as a result. - ansible-test - The ``ansible-test env`` command now detects and reports the container ID if running in a container. - ansible-test - Unit tests now support network disconnect by default when running under Podman. Previously this feature only worked by default under Docker. - ansible-test - Use ``stop --time 0`` followed by ``rm`` to remove ephemeral containers instead of ``rm -f``. This speeds up teardown of ephemeral containers. - ansible-test - Warnings are now shown when using containers that were built with VOLUME instructions. - ansible-test - When setting the max open files for containers, the container host's limit will be checked. If the host limit is lower than the preferred value, it will be used and a warning will be shown. - ansible-test - When using Podman, ansible-test will detect if the loginuid used in containers is incorrect. When this occurs a warning is displayed and the container is run with the AUDIT_CONTROL capability. Previously containers would fail under this situation, with no useful warnings or errors given. amazon.aws ~~~~~~~~~~ - amazon.aws collection - refacterization of code to use argument specification ``fallback`` when falling back to environment variables for security credentials and AWS connection details (https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws/pull/1174). - rds_instance - Split up the integration test-suite in a series of smaller tests (https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws/pull/1185). - rds_instance - add support for gp3 storage type (https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws/pull/1266). ansible.posix ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - mount - Add ``absent_from_fstab`` state (https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.posix/pull/166). - mount - Add ``ephemeral`` value for the ``state`` parameter, that allows to mount a filesystem without altering the ``fstab`` file (https://github.com/ansible-collections/ansible.posix/pull/267). - r4e_rpm_ostree - new module for validating package state on RHEL for Edge - rhel_facts - new facts module to handle RHEL specific facts - rhel_rpm_ostree - new module to handle RHEL rpm-ostree specific package management functionality - rpm_ostree_upgrade - new module to automate rpm-ostree upgrades - rpm_ostree_upgrade - new module to manage upgrades for rpm-ostree based systems ansible.utils ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - to_xml - Added support to disable xml declartion with full_document flag. ansible.windows ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - win_reboot - Display connection messages under 4 v's ``-vvvv`` instead of 3 cisco.ios ~~~~~~~~~ - cliconf - Added support for commit confirm functionality and rollback based on timeout. - ios_facts - default facts to show operating state data autonomous or controller mode. - ios_l2_interfaces - more options for modes attribute added. - ios_route_maps - added 32-bit number support (https://github.com/ansible-collections/cisco.ios/pull/692) cisco.iosxr ~~~~~~~~~~~ - iosxr.iosxr_bgp_global - Add missing set option in fast-detect dict of bgp nbr. cisco.meraki ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - New module - meraki_network_settings - Configure detailed settings of a network. - meraki_webhook - Add payload template parameter cisco.mso ~~~~~~~~~ - Add automatic creation of site bd when not existing in mso_schema_site_bd_subnet module (#263) - Add automatic schema validation functionality to mso_schema_template_deploy and ndo_schema_template_deploy (#318) - Add ndo_schema_template_deploy to support NDO 4+ deploy functionality (#305) - Add support for l3out from different template or schema in mso_schema_site_bd_l3out (#304) - Add support for orchestrator_only attribute for mso_tenant with state absent (#268) cloudscale_ch.cloud ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Add UEFI firmware type option for custom images. community.aws ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - aws_ssm - add ``ansible_aws_ssm_s3_addressing_style`` to allow setting the S3 addressing style (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1633). - aws_ssm - add support for custom SSM documents (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/876). - aws_ssm - avoid overloading ``subprocess`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1660). - aws_ssm - cleanup logging output (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1660). - aws_ssm - minor refactoring (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1660). - aws_ssm - refactor boto3 client initialization (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1663). - aws_ssm - refactor remote command generation (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1664). - ecs_cluster - add support for ``capacity_providers`` and ``capacity_provider_strategy`` features (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1640). - ecs_cluster - append default value to documentation (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1636). - ecs_ecr - add ``encryption_configuration`` option (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1623). - ecs_service - support load balancer update for existing ECS services (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1625). - elasticache_parameter_group - add ``redis6.x`` group family on the module input choices (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1476). - elb_target_group - add support for ``protocol_version`` parameter (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1496). - iam_role - Drop deprecation warning, because the standard value for purge parameters is ``true`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1636). - ssm_parameter - fix typo in examples ``paramater`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/issues/1642). community.digitalocean ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - digital_ocean_load_balancer - add support for C(size_unit) over deprecated C(size);

Breaking Changes / Porting Guide -------------------------------- community.general ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - ModuleHelper module utils - when the module sets output variables named ``msg``, ``exception``, ``output``, ``vars``, or ``changed``, the actual output will prefix those names with ``_`` (underscore symbol) only when they clash with output variables generated by ModuleHelper itself, which only occurs when handling exceptions. Please note that this breaking change does not require a new major release since before this release, it was not possible to add such variables to the output `due to a bug `__ (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5765).

Bugfixes -------- Ansible-core ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Correctly count rescued tasks in play recap (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/79711) - Fix traceback when using the ``template`` module and running with ``ANSIBLE_DEBUG=1`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/79763) - Fix using ``GALAXY_IGNORE_CERTS`` in conjunction with collections in requirements files which specify a specific ``source`` that isn't in the configured servers. - Fix using ``GALAXY_IGNORE_CERTS`` when downloading tarballs from Galaxy servers (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/79557). - Module and role argument validation - include the valid suboption choices in the error when an invalid suboption is provided. - ansible-doc now will correctly display short descriptions on listing filters/tests no matter the directory sorting. - ansible-inventory will not explicitly sort groups/hosts anymore, giving a chance (depending on output format) to match the order in the input sources. - ansible-test - Added a work-around for a traceback under Python 3.11 when completing certain command line options. - ansible-test - Avoid using ``exec`` after container startup when possible. This improves container startup performance and avoids intermittent startup issues with some old containers. - ansible-test - Connection attempts to managed remote instances no longer abort on ``Permission denied`` errors. - ansible-test - Detection for running in a Podman or Docker container has been fixed to detect more scenarios. The new detection relies on ``/proc/self/mountinfo`` instead of ``/proc/self/cpuset``. Detection now works with custom cgroups and private cgroup namespaces. - ansible-test - Fix validate-modules error when retrieving PowerShell argspec when retrieved inside a Cmdlet - ansible-test - Handle server errors when executing the ``docker info`` command. - ansible-test - Multiple containers now work under Podman without specifying the ``--docker-network`` option. - ansible-test - Pass the ``XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`` environment variable through to container commands. - ansible-test - Perform PyPI proxy configuration after instances are ready and bootstrapping has been completed. Only target instances are affected, as controller instances were already handled this way. This avoids proxy configuration errors when target instances are not yet ready for use. - ansible-test - Prevent concurrent / repeat inspections of the same container image. - ansible-test - Prevent concurrent / repeat pulls of the same container image. - ansible-test - Prevent concurrent execution of cached methods. - ansible-test - Show the exception type when reporting errors during instance provisioning. - ansible-test sanity - correctly report invalid YAML in validate-modules (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75837). - argument spec validation - again report deprecated parameters for Python-based modules. This was accidentally removed in ansible-core 2.11 when argument spec validation was refactored (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/79680, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/79681). - argument spec validation - ensure that deprecated aliases in suboptions are also reported (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/79740). - argument spec validation - fix warning message when two aliases of the same option are used for suboptions to also mention the option's name they are in (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/79740). - connection local now avoids traceback on invalid user being used to execuet ansible (valid in host, but not in container). - file - touch action in check mode was always returning ok.

------------- cisco.meraki ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - meraki_mr_l7_firewall - New module - meraki_webhook_payload_template - New module community.zabbix ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - all modules are opting away from zabbix-api and using httpapi ansible.netcommon plugin. We will support zabbix-api for backwards compatibility until next major release. See our README.md for more information about how to migrate - zabbix_agent and zabbix_proxy roles are opting away from zabbix-api and use httpapi ansible.netcommon plugin. We will support zabbix-api for backwards compatibility until next major release. See our README.md for more information about how to migrate containers.podman ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - New become plugin - podman_unshare - Podman generate systemd module fortinet.fortios ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Support FortiOS v7.0.6, v7.0.7, v7.0.8, v7.2.1, v7.2.2. Minor Changes ------------- Ansible-core ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - ansible-test - Improve consistency of executed ``pylint`` commands by making the plugins ordered. ansible.utils ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - to_xml - Added support for using spaces to indent an XML doc via a new `indent` parameter. cloudscale_ch.cloud ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Fixed a typo in region code. - Fixed various documentation typos. - Streamlined the flavors to the new format ``flex-y-x`` across the related modules and tests. community.crypto ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - x509_certificate_info - adds ``issuer_uri`` field in return value based on Authority Information Access data (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.crypto/pull/530). community.docker ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - current_container_facts - make work with current Docker version, also support Podman (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/510). - docker_image - when using ``archive_path``, detect whether changes are necessary based on the image ID (hash). If the existing tar archive matches the source, do nothing. Previously, each task execution re-created the archive (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/500). community.general ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - cmd_runner module utils - ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool()`` can now take an extra parameter to format when value is false (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5647). - gconftool2 - refactor using ``ModuleHelper`` and ``CmdRunner`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5545). - java_certs - add more detailed error output when extracting certificate from PKCS12 fails (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5550). - jenkins_plugin - refactor code to module util to fix sanity check (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5565). - lxd_project - refactored code out to module utils to clear sanity check (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5549). - nmap inventory plugin - add new options ``udp_scan``, ``icmp_timestamp``, and ``dns_resolve`` for different types of scans (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5566). - rax_scaling_group - refactored out code to the ``rax`` module utils to clear the sanity check (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5563). - redfish_command - add ``PerformRequestedOperations`` command to perform any operations necessary to continue the update flow (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4276). - redfish_command - add ``update_apply_time`` to ``SimpleUpdate`` command (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/3910). - redfish_command - add ``update_status`` to output of ``SimpleUpdate`` command to allow a user monitor the update in progress (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4276). - redfish_info - add ``GetUpdateStatus`` command to check the progress of a previous update request (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4276). - redfish_utils module utils - added PUT (``put_request()``) functionality (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5490). - slack - add option ``prepend_hash`` which allows to control whether a ``#`` is prepended to ``channel_id``. The current behavior (value ``auto``) is to prepend ``#`` unless some specific prefixes are found. That list of prefixes is incomplete, and there does not seem to exist a documented condition on when exactly ``#`` must not be prepended. We recommend to explicitly set ``prepend_hash=always`` or ``prepend_hash=never`` to avoid any ambiguity (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5629). - spotinst_aws_elastigroup - add ``elements`` attribute when missing in ``list`` parameters (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5553). - ssh_config - add ``host_key_algorithms`` option (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5605). - udm_share - added ``elements`` attribute to ``list`` type parameters (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5557). - udm_user - add ``elements`` attribute when missing in ``list`` parameters (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5559). community.routeros ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - api* modules - Add new option ``force_no_cert`` to connect with ADH ciphers (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/124). - api_info - new parameter ``include_builtin`` which allows to include "builtin" entries that are automatically generated by ROS and cannot be modified by the user (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/130). -

Bugfixes -------- Ansible-core ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Fixes leftover _valid_attrs usage. - ansible-galaxy - make initial call to Galaxy server on-demand only when installing, getting info about, and listing roles. - copy module will no longer move 'non files' set as src when remote_src=true. - display - reduce risk of post-fork output deadlocks (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/79522) - jinja2_native: preserve quotes in strings (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/79083) - updated error messages to include 'acl' and not just mode changes when failing to set required permissions on remote. ansible.utils ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Accept int input for ipaddr filters. cisco.dnac ~~~~~~~~~~ - DNA Center credentials can now be exported and used as env vars. - sda_virtual_network_ip_pool - Now pass the site_name_hierarchy correctly in get method. cisco.iosxr ~~~~~~~~~~~ - Fix issue of iosxr_config parellel uploads. - Support commit confirmed functionality with replace option. cisco.meraki ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Update defaults in documentation for new sanity tests - meraki_device - Fix URL for LLDP and CDP lookups cisco.nxos ~~~~~~~~~~ - `nxos_acls` - Parse ICMP echo-reply and echo options correctly (https://github.com/ansible-collections/cisco.nxos/issues/583). - `nxos_acls` - Parse ICMP port-unreachable and unreachable options correctly (https://github.com/ansible-collections/cisco.nxos/issues/529). - `nxos_acls` - Parse port-protocol options with hypenated names correctly (https://github.com/ansible-collections/cisco.nxos/issues/557). community.dns ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Update Public Suffix List. community.docker ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - current_container_facts - make container detection work better in more cases (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/522). - docker_container - the ``kill_signal`` option erroneously did not accept strings anymore since 3.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/issues/505, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/506). - docker_container_exec - fix ``chdir`` option which was ignored since community.docker 3.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/issues/517, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/518). - vendored latest Docker SDK for Python bugfix (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/513, https://github.com/docker/docker-py/issues/3045). community.general ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - chroot connection plugin - add ``inventory_hostname`` to vars under ``remote_addr``. This is needed for compatibility with ansible-core 2.13 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5570). - cmd_runner module utils - fixed bug when handling default cases in ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_map()`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5538). - cmd_runner module utils - formatting arguments ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_fixed()`` was expecting an non-existing argument (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5538). - keycloak_client_rolemapping - calculate ``proposed`` and ``after`` return values properly (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5619). - keycloak_client_rolemapping - remove only listed mappings with ``state=absent`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5619). - proxmox inventory plugin - fix bug while templating when using templates for the ``url``, ``user``, ``password``, ``token_id``, or ``token_secret`` options (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5640). - proxmox inventory plugin - handle tags delimited by semicolon instead of comma, which happens from Proxmox 7.3 on (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5602). - redhat_subscription - do not ignore ``consumer_name`` and other variables if ``activationkey`` is specified (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/3486, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5627). - redhat_subscription - do not pass arguments to ``subscription-manager register`` for things already configured; now a specified ``rhsm_baseurl`` is properly set for subscription-manager (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5583). - unixy callback plugin - fix plugin to work with ansible-core 2.14 by using Ansible's configuration manager for handling options (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5600). - vdo - now uses ``yaml.safe_load()`` to parse command output instead of the deprecated ``yaml.load()`` which is potentially unsafe. Using ``yaml.load()`` without explicitely setting a ``Loader=`` is also an error in pyYAML 6.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5632). - vmadm - fix for index out of range error in ``get_vm_uuid`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5628). community.postgresql ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - postgresql_privs - fails with ``type=default_privs``, ``privs=ALL``, ``objs=ALL_DEFAULT`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/373). community.routeros ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - api_modify - ``address-pool`` field of entries in API path ``ip dhcp-server`` is not required anymore (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/137). - api_modify - ``ip route`` entry can be defined without the need of ``gateway`` field, which is correct for unreachable/blackhole type of routes (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/131). - api_modify - ``queue interface`` path works now (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/131). - api_modify, api_info - removed wrong field ``dynamic`` from API path ``ipv6 firewall address-list`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/133). - api_modify, api_info - the default of the field ``ingress-filtering`` in ``interface bridge port`` is now ``true``, which is the default in ROS (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/125). - command, facts - commands do not timeout in safe mode anymore (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/134). community.sap_libs ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - fix a bug where some commands produces no output which cause to crash the module. - modules - fix a "variable used before assignment" that cannot be reached but causes sanity test failures. community.vmware ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - vmware_dvs_portgroup - Fix an issue when deleting portgroups (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/issues/1522). - vmware_guest_instant_clone - Fix an issue with pyVmomi 8.0.0.1 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/issues/1555). - vmware_host_lockdown - Fix issue `'VmwareLockdownManager' object has no attribute 'warn'` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/pull/1540). - vmware_object_custom_attributes_info - Fixed an issue that has occurred an error if a custom attribute is the global type(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/pull/1541). - vmware_portgroup_info - Fix an issue that can fail the module after manually updating a portgroup through vCenter (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/issues/1544). community.zabbix ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - The inventory script had insufficient error handling in case the Zabbix API provided an empty interfaces list. This bugfix checks for an exisiting interfaces element, then for the minimal length of 1 so that the first interface will only be accessed when it really exists in the api response. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.zabbix/issues/826) - zabbix-proxy - updated to install correct sources for Debian arm64 family - zabbix_agent - Filter IPv6 addresses from list of IP as Zabbix host creation expects IPv4 - zabbix_agent - installation on Windows will no longer fail when zabbix_agent2 is used - zabbix_host - fix updating of host without interfaces - zabbix_proxy - correctly provision tls_accept and tls_connect on Zabbix backend - zabbix_proxy - updated the datafiles_path fact for the zabbix_proxy and zabbix_server roles due to upstream change - zabbix_server - move location of the fping(6) variables to distribution specific files (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.zabbix/issues/812) - zabbix_server - updated the datafiles_path fact for the zabbix_proxy and zabbix_server roles due to upstream change containers.podman ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Delete systemd files when container/pod is deleted - Fix example in systemd generate module - Fix expanduser in path for systemd generation - Fix idempotency for labels in pods - Fix podman load module for Podman 4 - Fix rerunning playbooks with generate_systemd --new - Improve idempotency for devices mount of rootless podman - Improve networks idempotency for v4 - Support passing multiple networks with params - fix pod running status for older podman versions - podman_container should ensure image by using os path if rootfs is used - podman_systemd_generate - allow empty string for prefixes - podman_unshare - Fix docs for podman_unshare become plugin f5networks.f5_modules ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - bigip_software_image - fixed permission and ownership of the uploaded image file - bigip_ucs - fixed permission and ownership of the ucs file fortinet.fortios ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Fix invalid arguments in version_schemas; - Fix issue of filter content could not contain spaces (#208); - Fix issue of missing some options for monitor modules (#196); - Fix list type arguments inconsistency; - Fix list type not match issue; - Fix supports_check_mode issue for _info and _facts modules; hetzner.hcloud ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - hcloud_firewall - the deletion could fail if the firewall was referenced right before - hcloud_server - fix backup window was given out as "None" instead of null - hcloud_server_info - fix backup window was given out as "None" instead of null - hcloud_volume - fix server name was given out as "None" instead of null if no server was attached - hcloud_volume_info - fix server name was given out as "None" instead of null if no server was attached lowlydba.sqlserver ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Added missing mapping for UseDestinationDefaultDirectories (https://github.com/lowlydba/lowlydba.sqlserver/pull/153) - Removed default value for KeepCDC to fix compatability with SQL MI (https://github.com/lowlydba/lowlydba.sqlserver/pull/153) - Removed default value for ReplaceDbNameInFile to fix compatability with SQL MI (https://github.com/lowlydba/lowlydba.sqlserver/pull/148) - Removed default value for UseDestinationDefaultDirectories to fix compatability with SQL MI (https://github.com/lowlydba/lowlydba.sqlserver/pull/153) - Removed default value for reuse_source_folder_structure to fix compatability with SQL MI (https://github.com/lowlydba/lowlydba.sqlserver/pull/145) - Removed the default value for xp_dirtree to allow compatibility with Azure SQL Mangaed instances (https://github.com/lowlydba/lowlydba.sqlserver/pull/141) netbox.netbox ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - nb_inventory - Fix site_group in inventory plugin [#872](https://github.com/netbox-community/ansible_modules/pull/872) - nb_inventory - Make sure inventory works with ansible < 2.11 [#861](https://github.com/netbox-community/ansible_modules/pull/861) - netbox_virtual_machine - Fix idempotency with virtual machine and NetBox 3.0 [#859](https://github.com/netbox-community/ansible_modules/pull/859) ovirt.ovirt ~~~~~~~~~~~ - cluster_upgrade - Add default random uuid to engine_correlation_id (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-collection/pull/624). - cluster_upgrade - Fix the engine_correlation_id location (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-collection/pull/637). - image_template - Add template_bios_type (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-collection/pull/620). purestorage.flasharray ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - purefa.py - Fix issue in Purity versions numbers that are for development versions - purefa_policy - Fixed missing parameters in function calls - purefa_vg - Fix typeerror when using newer Purity versions and setting VG QoS purestorage.fusion ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - fusion_info - Fixed issue with storage endpoint dict formatting Known Issues ------------ community.routeros ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - api_modify - when limits for entries in ``queue tree`` are defined as human readable - for example ``25M`` -, the configuration will be correctly set in ROS, but the module will indicate the item is changed on every run even when there was no change done. This is caused by the ROS API which returns the number in bytes - for example ``25000000`` (which is inconsistent with the CLI behavior). In order to mitigate that, the limits have to be defined in bytes (those will still appear as human readable in the ROS CLI) (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/131). - api_modify, api_info - ``routing ospf area``, ``routing ospf area range``, ``routing ospf instance``, ``routing ospf interface-template`` paths are not fully implemeted for ROS6 due to the significat changes between ROS6 and ROS7 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/131). New Modules ----------- community.general ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - community.general.gitlab_project_badge - Manage project badges on GitLab Server - community.general.keycloak_clientsecret_info - Retrieve client secret via Keycloak API - community.general.keycloak_clientsecret_regenerate - Regenerate Keycloak client secret via Keycloak API community.vmware ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - community.vmware.vmware_custom_attribute - Manage custom attributes definitions - community.vmware.vmware_custom_attribute_manager - Manage custom attributes from VMware for the given vSphere object lowlydba.sqlserver ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - lowlydba.sqlserver.user - Configures a user within a database netbox.netbox ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - netbox.netbox.netbox_l2vpn - Create, update or delete L2VPN objects in NetBox New Playbooks ------------- - community.sops.install - Installs sops and GNU Privacy Guard on all remote hosts - community.sops.install_localhost - Installs sops and GNU Privacy Guard on localhost New Roles --------- - community.sops.install - Install Mozilla sops Unchanged Collections --------------------- - amazon.aws (still version 5.1.0) - ansible.netcommon (still version 4.1.0) - ansible.posix (still version 1.4.0) - ansible.windows (still version 1.12.0) - arista.eos (still version 6.0.0) - azure.azcollection (still version 1.14.0) - check_point.mgmt (still version 4.0.0) - chocolatey.chocolatey (still version 1.3.1) - cisco.aci (still version 2.3.0) - cisco.asa (still version 4.0.0) - cisco.ios (still version 4.0.0) - cisco.ise (still version 2.5.9) - cisco.mso (still version 2.1.0) - cisco.nso (still version 1.0.3) - cisco.ucs (still version 1.8.0) - cloud.common (still version 2.1.2) - community.aws (still version 5.0.0) - community.azure (still version 2.0.0) - community.ciscosmb (still version 1.0.5) - community.digitalocean (still version 1.22.0) - community.fortios (still version 1.0.0) - community.google (still version 1.0.0) - community.grafana (still version 1.5.3) - community.hashi_vault (still version 4.0.0) - community.hrobot (still version 1.6.0) - community.libvirt (still version 1.2.0) - community.mongodb (still version 1.4.2) - community.mysql (still version 3.5.1) - community.network (still version 5.0.0) - community.okd (still version 2.2.0) - community.proxysql (still version 1.4.0) - community.rabbitmq (still version 1.2.3) - community.sap (still version 1.0.0) - community.skydive (still version 1.0.0) - community.windows (still version 1.11.1) - cyberark.conjur (still version 1.2.0) - cyberark.pas (still version 1.0.14) - dellemc.enterprise_sonic (still version 2.0.0) - dellemc.openmanage (still version 6.3.0) - dellemc.os10 (still version 1.1.1) - dellemc.os6 (still version 1.0.7) - dellemc.os9 (still version 1.0.4) - fortinet.fortimanager (still version 2.1.7) - frr.frr (still version 2.0.0) - gluster.gluster (still version 1.0.2) - google.cloud (still version 1.0.2) - hpe.nimble (still version 1.1.4) - ibm.qradar (still version 2.1.0) - ibm.spectrum_virtualize (still version 1.10.0) - inspur.ispim (still version 1.2.0) - inspur.sm (still version 2.3.0) - kubernetes.core (still version 2.3.2) - mellanox.onyx (still version 1.0.0) - netapp.aws (still version 21.7.0) - netapp.azure (still version 21.10.0) - netapp.cloudmanager (still version 21.21.0) - netapp.elementsw (still version 21.7.0) - netapp.ontap (still version 22.0.1) - netapp.storagegrid (still version 21.11.1) - netapp.um_info (still version 21.8.0) - netapp_eseries.santricity (still version 1.3.1) - ngine_io.exoscale (still version 1.0.0) - ngine_io.vultr (still version 1.1.2) - openstack.cloud (still version 1.10.0) - openvswitch.openvswitch (still version 2.1.0) - purestorage.flashblade (still version 1.10.0) - sensu.sensu_go (still version 1.13.1) - splunk.es (still version 2.1.0) - t_systems_mms.icinga_director (still version 1.31.4) - theforeman.foreman (still version 3.7.0) - vmware.vmware_rest (still version 2.2.0) - vultr.cloud (still version 1.3.1) - vyos.vyos (still version 4.0.0) - wti.remote (still version 1.0.4) v7.0.0 ====== .. contents:: :local: :depth: 2 Release Summary --------------- Release Date: 2022-11-22 `Porting Guide `_ Removed Collections ------------------- - servicenow.servicenow (previously included version: 1.0.6) Added Collections ----------------- - ibm.spectrum_virtualize (version 1.10.0) - inspur.ispim (version 1.2.0) - lowlydba.sqlserver (version 1.0.4) - purestorage.fusion (version 1.1.1) - vultr.cloud (version 1.3.1) Ansible-core ------------ Ansible 7.0.0 contains Ansible-core version 2.14.0.

Major Changes ------------- Ansible-core ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Move handler processing into new ``PlayIterator`` phase to use the configured strategy (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65067) - ansible - At startup the filesystem encoding and locale are checked to verify they are UTF-8. If not, the process exits with an error reporting the errant encoding. - ansible - Increase minimum Python requirement to Python 3.9 for CLI utilities and controller code - ansible-test - At startup the filesystem encoding is checked to verify it is UTF-8. If not, the process exits with an error reporting the errant encoding. - ansible-test - At startup the locale is configured as ``en_US.UTF-8``, with a fallback to ``C.UTF-8``. If neither encoding is available the process exits with an error. If the fallback is used, a warning is displayed. In previous versions the ``en_US.UTF-8`` locale was always requested. However, no startup checking was performed to verify the locale was successfully configured. amazon.aws ~~~~~~~~~~ - amazon.aws collection - The amazon.aws collection has dropped support for ``botocore<1.20.0`` and ``boto3<1.17.0``. Most modules will continue to work with older versions of the AWS SDK, however compatibility with older versions of the SDK is not guaranteed and will not be tested.

Most modules will continue to work with older versions of the AWS SDK, however compatibility with older versions of the SDK is not guaranteed and will not be tested. When using older versions of the SDK a warning will be emitted by Ansible (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/956). community.docker ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - The collection now contains vendored code from the Docker SDK for Python to talk to the Docker daemon. Modules and plugins using this code no longer need the Docker SDK for Python installed on the machine the module or plugin is running on (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/398). - docker_api connection plugin - no longer uses the Docker SDK for Python. It requires ``requests`` to be installed, and depending on the features used has some more requirements. If the Docker SDK for Python is installed, these requirements are likely met (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/414). - docker_container - no longer uses the Docker SDK for Python. It requires ``requests`` to be installed, and depending on the features used has some more requirements. If the Docker SDK for Python is installed, these requirements are likely met (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/422). - docker_container - the module was completely rewritten from scratch (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/422). - docker_container_exec - no longer uses the Docker SDK for Python.

If the Docker SDK for Python is installed, these requirements are likely met (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/403). - docker_image - no longer uses the Docker SDK for Python. It requires ``requests`` to be installed, and depending on the features used has some more requirements. If the Docker SDK for Python is installed, these requirements are likely met (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/404). - docker_image_info - no longer uses the Docker SDK for Python. It requires ``requests`` to be installed, and depending on the features used has some more requirements. If the Docker SDK for Python is installed, these requirements are likely met (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/405). - docker_image_load - no longer uses the Docker SDK for Python. It requires ``requests`` to be installed, and depending on the features used has some more requirements. If the Docker SDK for Python is installed, these requirements are likely met (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/406). - docker_login - no longer uses the Docker SDK for Python. It requires ``requests`` to be installed, and depending on the features used has some more requirements. If the Docker SDK for Python is installed, these requirements are likely met (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/407). - docker_network - no longer uses the Docker SDK for Python. It requires ``requests`` to be installed, and depending on the features used has some more requirements.

It requires ``requests`` to be installed, and depending on the features used has some more requirements. If the Docker SDK for Python is installed, these requirements are likely met (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/409). - docker_plugin - no longer uses the Docker SDK for Python.

It requires ``requests`` to be installed, and depending on the features used has some more requirements. If the Docker SDK for Python is installed, these requirements are likely met (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/412). community.general ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - The internal structure of the collection was changed for modules and action plugins. These no longer live in a directory hierarchy ordered by topic, but instead are now all in a single (flat) directory. This has no impact on users *assuming they did not use internal FQCNs*. These will still work, but result in deprecation warnings. They were never officially supported and thus the redirects are kept as a courtsey, and this is not labelled as a breaking change. Note that for example the Ansible VScode plugin started recommending these internal names. If you followed its recommendation, you will now have to change back to the short names to avoid deprecation warnings, and potential errors in the future as these redirects will be removed in community.general 9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5461). - newrelic_deployment - removed New Relic v1 API, added support for v2 API (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5341). community.mysql ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - mysql_db - the ``pipefail`` argument's default value will be changed to ``true`` in community.mysql 4.0.0. If your target machines do not use ``bash`` as a default interpreter, set ``pipefail`` to ``false`` explicitly. However, we strongly recommend setting up ``bash`` as a default and ``pipefail=true`` as it will protect you from getting broken dumps you don't know about (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/issues/407). community.network ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - The community.network collection no longer supports Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10. While we take no active measures to prevent usage, we will remove compatibility code and other compatility measures that will effectively prevent using most content from this collection with Ansible 2.9, and some content of this collection with ansible-base 2.10. Both Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base 2.10 will very soon be End of Life and if you are still using them, you should consider upgrading to ansible-core 2.11 or later as soon as possible (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.network/pull/426). - The internal structure of the collection was changed for modules and action plugins. These no longer live in a directory hierarchy ordered by topic, but instead are now all in a single (flat) directory. This has no impact on users *assuming they did not use internal FQCNs*. These will still work, but result in deprecation warnings. They were never officially supported and thus the redirects are kept as a courtsey, and this is not labelled as a breaking change. Note that for example the Ansible VScode plugin started recommending these internal names. If you followed its recommendation, you will now have to change back to the short names to avoid deprecation warnings, and potential errors in the future as these redirects will be removed in community.network 8.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.network/pull/482). community.postgresql ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - postgresql_user - the ``groups`` argument has been deprecated and will be removed in ``community.postgresql 3.0.0``. Please use the ``postgresql_membership`` module to specify group/role memberships instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/277). dellemc.enterprise_sonic ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Added 'static_routes' module to collection (https://github.com/ansible-collections/dellemc.enterprise_sonic/pull/82). - Added a resource module for NTP support (https://github.com/ansible-collections/dellemc.enterprise_sonic/pull/99). - Added a resource module for support of prefix lists (https://github.com/ansible-collections/dellemc.enterprise_sonic/pull/100). - Updated backend REST API request formats in all applicable modules for compatibility with SONiC 4.x openconfig YANG compliant REST APIs. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/dellemc.enterprise_sonic/pull/53) dellemc.openmanage ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Added collection metadata for creating execution environments. - Refactored the Markdown (MD) files and content for better readability. - The share parameters are deprecated from the following modules - idrac_network, idrac_timezone_ntp, dellemc_configure_idrac_eventing, dellemc_configure_idrac_services, dellemc_idrac_lc_attributes, dellemc_system_lockdown_mode. - idrac_bios - The module is enhanced to support clear pending BIOS attributes, reset BIOS to default settings, and configure BIOS attribute using Redfish. - idrac_boot - Support for configuring the boot settings on iDRAC. - idrac_redfish_storage_controller - This module is enhanced to support LockVirtualDisk operation. - idrac_virtual_media - This module allows to configure Remote File Share settings. - ome_device_group - The module is enhanced to support the removal of devices from a static device group. - ome_devices - Support for performing device-specific operations on OpenManage Enterprise. fortinet.fortimanager ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Fix compatibility issue for ansible 2.9.x and ansible-base 2.10.x. - Many fixes for Ansible sanity test warnings & errors. - Support FortiManager Schema 7.2.0 , 98 new modules - support Ansible changelogs. fortinet.fortios ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Support Diff feature in check_mode. - Support Fortios 7.2.0. infoblox.nios_modules ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Feature for extra layer security , with `cert` and `key` parameters in playbooks for authenticating using certificate and key ``*.pem`` file absolute path `#154 `_ - Fix to remove issue causing due to template attr in deleting network using Ansible module nios network `#147 `_ - Update `text` field of TXT Record `#128 `_ - Update operation using `old_name` and `new_name` for the object with dummy name in `old_name` (which does not exist in system) will not create a new object in the system. An error will be thrown stating the object does not exist in the system `#129 `_ junipernetworks.junos ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Use of connection: local and the provider option are no longer valid on any modules in this collection. vyos.vyos ~~~~~~~~~ - Use of connection: local and the provider option are no longer valid on any modules in this collection. Minor Changes ------------- Ansible-core ~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Add a new "INVENTORY_UNPARSED_WARNING" flag add to hide the "No inventory was parsed, only implicit localhost is available" warning - Add an 'action_plugin' field for modules in runtime.yml plugin_routing. This fixes module_defaults by supporting modules-as-redirected-actions without redirecting module_defaults entries to the common action. .. code: yaml plugin_routing: action: facts: redirect: ns.coll.eos command: redirect: ns.coll.eos modules: facts: redirect: ns.coll.eos_facts command: redirect: ns.coll.eos_command With the runtime.yml above for ns.coll, a task such as .. code: yaml - hosts: all module_defaults: ns.coll.eos_facts: {'valid_for_eos_facts': 'value'} ns.coll.eos_command: {'not_valid_for_eos_facts': 'value'} tasks: - ns.coll.facts: will end up with defaults for eos_facts and eos_command since both modules redirect to the same action. To select an action plugin for a module without merging module_defaults, define an action_plugin field for the resolved module in the runtime.yml. .. code: yaml plugin_routing: modules: facts: redirect: ns.coll.eos_facts action_plugin: ns.coll.eos command: redirect: ns.coll.eos_command action_plugin: ns.coll.eos The action_plugin field can be a redirected action plugin, as it is resolved normally. Using the modified runtime.yml, the example task will only use the ns.coll.eos_facts defaults. - Add support for parsing ``-a`` module options as JSON and not just key=value arguments - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78112 - Added Kylin Linux Advanced Server OS in RedHat OS Family. - Allow ``when`` conditionals to be used on ``flush_handlers`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77616) - Allow meta tasks to be used as handlers. - Display - The display class will now proxy calls to Display.display via the queue from forks/workers to be handled by the parent process for actual display. This reduces some reliance on the fork start method and improves reliability of displaying messages. - Jinja version test - Add pep440 version_type for version test. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78288) - Loops - Add new ``loop_control.extended_allitems`` to allow users to disable tracking all loop items for each loop (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75216) - NetBSD - Add uptime_seconds fact - Provide a `utc` option for strftime to show time in UTC rather than local time - Raise a proper error when ``include_role`` or ``import_role`` is used as a handler. - Remove the ``AnsibleContext.resolve`` method as its override is not necessary. Furthermore the ability to override the ``resolve`` method was deprecated in Jinja 3.0.0 and removed in Jinja 3.1.0. - Utilize @classmethod and @property together to form classproperty (Python 3.9) to access field attributes of a class - ``LoopControl`` is now templated through standard ``post_validate`` method (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75715) - ``ansible-galaxy collection install`` - add an ``--offline`` option to prevent querying distribution servers (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77443). - ansible - Add support for Python 3.11 to Python interpreter discovery. - ansible - At startup the stdin/stdout/stderr file handles are checked to verify they are using blocking IO. If not, the process exits with an error reporting which file handle(s) are using non-blocking IO. - ansible-config adds JSON and YAML output formats for list and dump actions. - ansible-connection now supports verbosity directly on cli - ansible-console added 'collections' command to match playbook keyword. - ansible-doc - remove some of the manual formatting, and use YAML more uniformly. This in particular means that ``true`` and ``false`` are used for boolean values, instead of ``True`` and ``False`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78668). - ansible-galaxy - Support resolvelib versions 0.6.x, 0.7.x, and 0.8.x.

The script can now be downloaded from https://github.com/ansible-community/contrib-scripts/blob/main/inventory/ec2.py and has been removed from this collection. We recommend migrating from the script to the amazon.aws.ec2 inventory plugin. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/898) - sqs_queue - the previously deprecated default value of ``purge_tags=False`` has been updated to ``purge_tags=True`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws/pull/1343). community.docker ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - This collection does not work with ansible-core 2.11 on Python 3.12+. Please either upgrade to ansible-core 2.12+, or use Python 3.11 or earlier (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/271). - docker_container - ``exposed_ports`` is no longer ignored in ``comparisons``. Before, its value was assumed to be identical with the value of ``published_ports`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/422). - docker_container - ``log_options`` can no longer be specified when ``log_driver`` is not specified (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/422). - docker_container - ``publish_all_ports`` is no longer ignored in ``comparisons`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/422). - docker_container - ``restart_retries`` can no longer be specified when ``restart_policy`` is not specified (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/422). - docker_container - ``stop_timeout`` is no longer ignored for idempotency if told to be not ignored in ``comparisons``. So far it defaulted to ``ignore`` there, and setting it to ``strict`` had no effect (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/422). - modules and plugins communicating directly with the Docker daemon - when connecting by SSH and not using ``use_ssh_client=true``, reject unknown host keys instead of accepting them. This is only a breaking change relative to older community.docker 3.0.0 pre-releases or with respect to Docker SDK for Python < 6.0.0. Docker SDK for Python 6.0.0 will also include this change (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/434). community.general ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - newrelic_deployment - ``revision`` is required for v2 API (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5341). - scaleway_container_registry_info - no longer replace ``secret_environment_variables`` in the output by ``SENSITIVE_VALUE`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5497). community.hashi_vault ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - auth - the default value for ``token_validate`` has changed from ``true`` to ``false``, as previously announced (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/248). - vault_kv2_get lookup - as previously announced, the default value for ``engine_mount_point`` in the ``vault_kv2_get`` lookup has changed from ``kv`` to ``secret`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/279). community.vmware ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Removed support for ansible-core version < 2.13.0. - vmware_dvs_portgroup - Add a new sub-option `inherited` to the `in_traffic_shaping` parameter. This means you can keep the setting as-is by not defining the parameter, but also that you have to define the setting as not `inherited` if you want to override it at the PG level (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/pull/1483). - vmware_dvs_portgroup - Add a new sub-option `inherited` to the `out_traffic_shaping` parameter. This means you can keep the setting as-is by not defining the parameter, but also that you have to define the setting as not `inherited` if you want to override it at the PG level (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/pull/1483). - vmware_dvs_portgroup - Change the type of `net_flow` to string to allow setting it implicitly to inherited or to keep the value as-is. This means you can keep the setting as-is by not defining the parameter, but also that while `true` or `no` still work, `True` or `Off` (uppercase) won't (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/pull/1483). - vmware_dvs_portgroup - Remove support for vSphere API less than 6.7. - vmware_dvs_portgroup - Remove the default for `network_policy` and add a new sub-option `inherited`. This means you can keep the setting as-is by not defining the parameter, but also that you have to define the setting as not `inherited` if you want to override it at the PG level (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/pull/1483). - vmware_dvs_portgroup_info - Remove support for vSphere API less than 6.7. - vmware_dvswitch - Remove support for vSphere API less than 6.7. - vmware_dvswitch_uplink_pg - Remove support for vSphere API less than 6.7. - vmware_guest_boot_manager - Remove default for ``secure_boot_enabled`` parameter (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/issues/1461). - vmware_vm_config_option - Dict item names in result are changed from strings joined with spaces to strings joined with underlines, e.g. `Guest fullname` is changed to `guest_fullname` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/issues/1268). - vmware_vspan_session - Remove support for vSphere API less than 6.7. dellemc.enterprise_sonic ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - bgp_af - Add the route_advertise_list dictionary to the argspec to replace the deleted, obsolete advertise_prefix attribute used for SONiC 3.x images on the 1.x branch of this collection. This change corresponds to a SONiC 4.0 OC YANG REST compliance change for the BGP AF REST API. It enables specification of a route map in conjunction with each route advertisement prefix (https://github.com/ansible-collections/dellemc.enterprise_sonic/pull/63). - bgp_af - remove the obsolete 'advertise_prefix' attribute from argspec and config code. This and subsequent co-req replacement with the new route advertise list argument structure require corresponding changes in playbooks previoulsly used for configuring route advertise prefixes for SONiC 3.x images. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/dellemc.enterprise_sonic/pull/60) - bgp_neighbors - Replace the previously defined standalone "bfd" attribute with a bfd dictionary containing multiple attributes. This change corresponds to the revised SONiC 4.x implementation of OC YANG compatible REST APIs. Playbooks previously using the bfd attributes for SONiC 3.x images must be modified for useon SONiC 4.0 images to use the new definition for the bfd attribute argspec structure (https://github.com/ansible-collections/dellemc.enterprise_sonic/pull/72). - bgp_neighbors - Replace, for BGP peer groups, the previously defined standalone "bfd" attribute with a bfd dictionary containing multiple attributes. This change corresponds to the revised SONiC 4.x implementation of OC YANG compatible REST APIs. Playbooks previously using the bfd attributes for SONiC 3.x images must be modified for useon SONiC 4.0 images to use the new definition for the bfd attribute argspec structure (https://github.com/ansible-collections/dellemc.enterprise_sonic/pull/81).

The VNC support has been dropped with vSphere 7 and later (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/pull/1454). - vmware_host_firewall_manager - The module doesn't accept a list for ``allowed_hosts`` anymore, use a dict instead. Additionally, ``all_ip`` is now a required sub-option of ``allowed_hosts`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.vmware/pull/1463). - vsphere_copy - The deprecated parameters ``host`` and ``login`` have been removed.

Security Fixes -------------- amazon.aws ~~~~~~~~~~ - ec2_instance - fixes leak of password into logs when using ``tower_callback.windows=True`` and ``tower_callback.set_password`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws/pull/1199). community.docker ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - modules and plugins communicating directly with the Docker daemon - when connecting by SSH and not using ``use_ssh_client=true``, reject unknown host keys instead of accepting them. This is only a change relative to older community.docker 3.0.0 pre-releases or with respect to Docker SDK for Python < 6.0.0. Docker SDK for Python 6.0.0 will also include this change (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.docker/pull/434).

(https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77315) - Fix an issue where ``ansible_play_hosts`` and ``ansible_play_batch`` were not properly updated when a failure occured in an explicit block inside the rescue section (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78612) - Fix dnf module documentation to indicate that comparison operators for package version require spaces around them (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78295) - Fix for linear strategy when tasks were executed in incorrect order or even removed from execution. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64611, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/64999, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/72725, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/72781) - Fix for network_cli not getting all relevant connection options - Fix handlers execution with ``serial`` in the ``linear`` strategy (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/54991) - Fix potential, but unlikely, cases of variable use before definition. - Fix reusing a connection in a task loop that uses a redirected or aliased name - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78425 - Fix setting become activation in a task loop - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78425 - Fix traceback when installing a collection from a git repository and git is not installed (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77479). - GALAXY_IGNORE_CERTS reworked to allow each server entry to override - More gracefully handle separator errors in jinja2 template overrides (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77495). - Move undefined check from concat to finalize (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78156) - Prevent losing unsafe on results returned from lookups (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77535) - Propagate ``ansible_failed_task`` and ``ansible_failed_result`` to an outer rescue (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/43191) - Properly execute rescue section when an include task fails in all loop iterations (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/23161) - Properly send a skipped message when a list in a ``loop`` is empty and comes from a template (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77934) - Support colons in jinja2 template override values (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77495). - ``ansible-galaxy`` - remove extra server api call during dependency resolution for requirements and dependencies that are already satisfied (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77443). - `ansible-config init -f vars` will now use shorthand format - action plugins now pass cannonical info to modules instead of 'temporary' info from play_context - ansible - Exclude Python 2.6 from Python interpreter discovery. - ansible-config dump - Only display plugin type headers when plugin options are changed if --only-changed is specified. - ansible-config limit shorthand format to assigned values - ansible-configi init should now skip internal reserved config entries - ansible-connection - decrypt vaulted parameters before sending over the socket, as vault secrets are not available on the other side. - ansible-console - Renamed the first argument of ``ConsoleCLI.default`` from ``arg`` to ``line`` to match the first argument of the same method on the base class ``Cmd``. - ansible-console commands now all have a help entry. - ansible-console fixed to load modules via fqcn, short names and handle redirects. - ansible-console now shows installed collection modules. - ansible-doc - fix listing plugins. - ansible-doc will not add 'website for' in ":ref:" substitutions as it made them confusing. - ansible-doc will not again warn and skip when missing docs, always show the doc file (for edit on github) and match legacy plugins. - ansible-doc will not traceback when legacy plugins don't have docs nor adjacent file with docs - ansible-doc will now also display until as an 'implicit' templating keyword. - ansible-doc will now not display version_added_collection under same conditions it does not display version_added. - ansible-galaxy - Fix detection of ``--role-file`` in arguments for implicit role invocation (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78204) - ansible-galaxy - Fix exit codes for role search and delete (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78516) - ansible-galaxy - Fix loading boolean server options so False doesn't become a truthy string (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77416). - ansible-galaxy - Fix reinitializing the whole collection directory with ``ansible-galaxy collection init ns.coll --force``. Now directories and files that are not included in the collection skeleton will be removed. - ansible-galaxy - Fix unhandled traceback if a role's dependencies in meta/main.yml or meta/requirements.yml are not lists. - ansible-galaxy - do not require mandatory keys in the ``galaxy.yml`` of source collections when listing them (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/70180). - ansible-galaxy - fix installing collections that have dependencies in the metadata set to null instead of an empty dictionary (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77560). - ansible-galaxy - fix listing collections that contains metadata but the namespace or name are not strings. - ansible-galaxy - fix missing meta/runtime.yml in default galaxy skeleton used for ansible-galaxy collection init - ansible-galaxy - fix setting the cache for paginated responses from Galaxy NG/AH (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77911). - ansible-galaxy - handle unsupported versions of resolvelib gracefully. - ansible-galaxy --ignore-certs now has proper precedence over configuration - ansible-test - Add ``wheel < 0.38.0`` constraint for Python 3.6 and earlier. - ansible-test - Allow disabled, unsupported, unstable and destructive integration test targets to be selected using their respective prefixes. - ansible-test - Allow unstable tests to run when targeted changes are made and the ``--allow-unstable-changed`` option is specified (resolves https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74213). - ansible-test - Always remove containers after failing to create/run them. This avoids leaving behind created containers when using podman. - ansible-test - Correctly detect when running as the ``root`` user (UID 0) on the origin host. The result of the detection was incorrectly being inverted. - ansible-test - Delegation for commands which generate output for programmatic consumption no longer redirect all output to stdout. The affected commands and options are ``shell``, ``sanity --lint``, ``sanity --list-tests``, ``integration --list-targets``, ``coverage analyze`` - ansible-test - Delegation now properly handles arguments given after ``--`` on the command line. - ansible-test - Don't fail if network cannot be disconnected (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77472) - ansible-test - Fix bootstrapping of Python 3.9 on Ubuntu 20.04 remotes. - ansible-test - Fix broken documentation link for ``aws`` test plugin error messages. - ansible-test - Fix change detection for ansible-test's own integration tests. - ansible-test - Fix internal validation of remote completion configuration. - ansible-test - Fix skipping of tests marked ``needs/python`` on the origin host. - ansible-test - Fix skipping of tests marked ``needs/root`` on the origin host. - ansible-test - Prevent ``--target-`` prefixed options for the ``shell`` command from being combined with legacy environment options. - ansible-test - Sanity test output with the ``--lint`` option is no longer mixed in with bootstrapping output. - ansible-test - Subprocesses are now isolated from the stdin, stdout and stderr of ansible-test. This avoids issues with subprocesses tampering with the file descriptors, such as SSH making them non-blocking. As a result of this change, subprocess output from unit and integration tests on stderr now go to stdout. - ansible-test - Subprocesses no longer have access to the TTY ansible-test is connected to, if any. This maintains consistent behavior between local testing and CI systems, which typically do not provide a TTY. Tests which require a TTY should use pexpect or another mechanism to create a PTY. - ansible-test - Temporary executables are now verified as executable after creation. Without this check, path injected scripts may not be found, typically on systems with ``/tmp`` mounted using the "noexec" option. This can manifest as a missing Python interpreter, or use of the wrong Python interpreter, as well as other error conditions. - ansible-test - Test configuration for collections is now parsed only once, prior to delegation. Fixes issue: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78334 - ansible-test - Test containers are now run with the ``--tmpfs`` option for ``/tmp``, ``/run`` and ``/run/lock``. This allows use of containers built without the ``VOLUME`` instruction. Additionally, containers with those volumes defined no longer create anonymous volumes for them. This avoids leaving behind volumes on the container host after the container is stopped and deleted. - ansible-test - The ``shell`` command no longer redirects all output to stdout when running a provided command. Any command output written to stderr will be mixed with the stderr output from ansible-test. - ansible-test - The ``shell`` command no longer requests a TTY when using delegation unless an interactive shell is being used. An interactive shell is the default behavior when no command is given to pass to the shell. - ansible-test - Update the ``pylint`` sanity test requirements to resolve crashes on Python 3.11. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78882) - ansible-test - Update the ``pylint`` sanity test to use version 2.15.4. - ansible-test - Update the ``pylint`` sanity test to use version 2.15.5. - ansible-test - ansible-doc sanity test - Correctly determine the fully-qualified collection name for plugins in subdirectories, resolving https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78490. - ansible-test - validate-modules - Documentation-only modules, used for documenting actions, are now allowed to have docstrings (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77972). - ansible-test compile sanity test - do not crash if a column could not be determined for an error (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77465). - apt - Fix module failure when a package is not installed and only_upgrade=True. Skip that package and check the remaining requested packages for upgrades. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78762) - apt - don't actually update the cache in check mode with update_cache=true. - apt - don't mark existing packages as manually installed in check mode (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66413). - apt - fix package selection to include /etc/apt/preferences(.d) (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77969) - apt module now correctly handles virtual packages. - apt module should not traceback on invalid type given as package. issue 78663. - arg_spec - Fix incorrect ``no_log`` warning when a parameter alias is used (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77576) - callback plugins - do not crash when ``exception`` passed from a module is not a string (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75726, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77781). - cli now emits clearer error on no hosts selected - config, ensure that pulling values from configmanager are templated if possible. - display itself should be single source of 'verbosity' level to the engine. - dnf - Condense a few internal boolean returns. - dnf - The ``nobest`` option now also works for ``state=latest``. - dnf - The ``skip_broken`` option is now used in installs (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/73072). - dnf - fix output parsing on systems with ``LANGUAGE`` set to a language other than English (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78193) - facts - fix IP address discovery for specific interface names (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77792). - facts - fix processor facts on AIX: correctly detect number of cores and threads, turn ``processor`` into a list (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78223). - fetch_file - Ensure we only use the filename when calculating a tempfile, and do not incude the query string (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/29680) - fetch_file - properly split files with multiple file extensions (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75257) - file - setting attributes of symbolic links or files that are hard linked no longer fails when the link target is unspecified (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76142). - file backed cache plugins now handle concurrent access by making atomic updates to the files. - git module fix docs and proper use of ssh wrapper script and GIT_SSH_COMMAND depending on version. - handlers - fix an issue where the ``flush_handlers`` meta task could not be used with FQCN: ``ansible.builtin.meta`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/79023) - if a config setting prevents running ansible it should at least show it's "origin". - include module - add docs url to include deprecation message (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76684). - items2dict - Handle error if an item is not a dictionary or is missing the required keys (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/70337). - keyword inheritance - Ensure that we do not squash keywords in validate (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/79021) - known_hosts - do not return changed status when a non-existing key is removed (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78598) - local facts - if a local fact in the facts directory cannot be stated, store an error message as the fact value and emit a warning just as if just as if the facts execution has failed. The stat can fail e.g. on dangling symlinks. - lookup plugin - catch KeyError when lookup returns dictionary (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77789). - module_utils - Make distro.id() report newer versions of OpenSuSE (at least >=15) also report as ``opensuse``. They report themselves as ``opensuse-leap``. - module_utils.service - daemonize - Avoid modifying the list of file descriptors while iterating over it. - null_representation config entry changed to 'raw' as it must allow 'none/null' and empty string. - omit on keywords was resetting to default value, ignoring inheritance. - paramiko - Add a new option to allow paramiko >= 2.9 to easily work with all devices now that rsa-sha2 support was added to paramiko, which prevented communication with numerous platforms. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76737) - paramiko - Add back support for ``ssh_args``, ``ssh_common_args``, and ``ssh_extra_args`` for parsing the ``ProxyCommand`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78750) - password lookup does not ignore k=v arguments anymore. - pause module will now report proper 'echo' vs always being true. - pip - fix cases where resolution of pip Python module fails when importlib.util has not already been imported - plugin loader - Sort results when fuzzy matching plugin names (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77966). - plugin loader will now load config data for plugin by name instead of by file to avoid issues with the same file being loaded under different names (fqcn + short name). - plugin loader, fix detection for existing configuration before initializing for a plugin - plugin loader, now when skipping a plugin due to an abstract method error we provide that in 'verbose' mode instead of totally obscuring the error. The current implementation assumed only the base classes would trigger this and failed to consider 'in development' plugins. - prevent lusermod from using group name instead of group id (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77914) - prevent type annotation shim failures from causing runtime failures (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77860) - psrp connection now handles default to inventory_hostname correctly. - roles, fixed issue with roles loading paths not contained in the role itself when using the `_from` options. - service_facts - Use python re to parse service output instead of grep (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78541) - setup - Adds a default value to ``lvm_facts`` when lvm or lvm2 is not installed on linux (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/17393) - shell plugins now give a more user friendly error when fed the wrong type of data. - template module/lookup - fix ``convert_data`` option that was effectively always set to True for Jinja macros (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78141) - unarchive - if unzip is available but zipinfo is not, use unzip -Z instead of zipinfo (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76959). - uri - properly use uri parameter use_proxy (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/58632) - uri module - failed status when Authentication Bearer used with netrc, because Basic authentication was by default. Fix now allows to ignore netrc by changing use_netrc=False (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74397). - urls - Guard imports of ``urllib3`` by catching ``Exception`` instead of ``ImportError`` to prevent exceptions in the import process of optional dependencies from preventing use of ``urls.py`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78648) - user - Fix error "Permission denied" in user module while generating SSH keys (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78017). - user - fix creating a local user if the user group already exists (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75042) -

Fix a small number of potential use-before-assignment issues. - Fix to set connection plugin options correctly. - libssh - Removed the wording "Tech preview". From version 3.0.0 the default if installed. - libssh - add ssh_args, ssh_common_args, and ssh_extra_args options.

The ``else`` clause had a wrong indentation. The check is now handled in the ``split_pid_name`` function (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5202). - locale_gen - fix support for Ubuntu (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5281). - lxc_container - the module has been updated to support Python 3 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5304). - lxd connection plugin - fix incorrect ``inventory_hostname`` in ``remote_addr``. This is needed for compatibility with ansible-core 2.13 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4886). - manageiq_alert_profiles - avoid crash when reporting unknown profile caused by trying to return an undefined variable (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5111). - nmcli - avoid changed status for most cases with VPN connections (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5126). - nmcli - fix error caused by adding undefined module arguments for list options (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4373, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4813). - nmcli - fix error when setting previously unset MAC address, ``gsm.apn`` or ``vpn.data``: current values were being normalized without checking if they might be ``None`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5291). - nmcli - fix int options idempotence (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4998). - nsupdate - compatibility with NS records (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5112). - nsupdate - fix silent failures when updating ``NS`` entries from Bind9 managed DNS zones (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4657). - one_vm - avoid splitting labels that are ``None`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5489). - onepassword_raw - add missing parameter to plugin documentation (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5506). - opentelemetry callback plugin - support opentelemetry-api 1.13.0 that removed support for ``_time_ns`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5342). - osx_defaults - no longer expand ``~`` in ``value`` to the user's home directory, or expand environment variables (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5234, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5243). - packet_ip_subnet - fix error reporting in case of invalid CIDR prefix lengths (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5111). - pacman - fixed name resolution of URL packages (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4959). - passwordstore lookup plugin - fix ``returnall`` for gopass (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5027). - passwordstore lookup plugin - fix password store path detection for gopass (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4955). - pfexec become plugin - remove superflous quotes preventing exe wrap from working as expected (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/3671, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3889). - pip_package_info - remove usage of global variable (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5111). - pkgng - fix case when ``pkg`` fails when trying to upgrade all packages (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5363). - proxmox - fix error handling when getting VM by name when ``state=absent`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4945). - proxmox inventory plugin - fix crash when ``enabled=1`` is used in agent config string (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4910). - proxmox inventory plugin - fixed extended status detection for qemu (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4816). - proxmox_disk - avoid duplicate ``vmid`` reference (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5492, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5493). - proxmox_kvm - fix ``agent`` parameter when boolean value is specified (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5198). - proxmox_kvm - fix error handling when getting VM by name when ``state=absent`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4945). - proxmox_kvm - fix exception when no ``agent`` argument is specified (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5194). - proxmox_kvm - fix wrong condition (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5108). - proxmox_kvm - replace new condition with proper condition to allow for using ``vmid`` on update (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5206). - rax_clb_nodes - fix code to be compatible with Python 3 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4933). - redfish_command - fix the check if a virtual media is unmounted to just check for ``instered= false`` caused by Supermicro hardware that does not clear the ``ImageName`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4839). - redfish_command - the Supermicro Redfish implementation only supports the ``image_url`` parameter in the underlying API calls to ``VirtualMediaInsert`` and ``VirtualMediaEject``.

When ``message-id`` was passed it failed for channels which started with ``CP`` because the ``#`` symbol was added before the ``channel_id`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5249). - snap - allow values in the ``options`` parameter to contain whitespaces (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5475). - sudoers - ensure sudoers config files are created with the permissions requested by sudoers (0440) (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4814). - sudoers - fix incorrect handling of ``state: absent`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4852). - tss lookup plugin - adding support for updated Delinea library (https://github.com/DelineaXPM/python-tss-sdk/issues/9, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5151). - virtualbox inventory plugin - skip parsing values with keys that have both a value and nested data. Skip parsing values that are nested more than two keys deep (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5332, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5348). - xcc_redfish_command - for compatibility due to Redfish spec changes the virtualMedia resource location changed from Manager to System (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4682). - xenserver_facts - fix broken ``AnsibleModule`` call that prevented the module from working at all (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5383). - xfconf - fix setting of boolean values (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4999, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5007). - zfs - fix wrong quoting of properties (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4707, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4726). community.grafana ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Add support for more elasticsearch version as datasource (#263) - Ensure user email/login is url encoded when searching for the user (#264) - Fix a bug that causes a fatal error when using `url` parameter in `grafana_dashboard` and `grafana_notification_channel` modules. - Fix a bug that causes an update error when using the `grafana_datasource` module on Grafana >=9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.grafana/issues/248). community.hashi_vault ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Add SPDX license headers to individual files (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/pull/282). - Add missing ``BSD-2-Clause.txt`` file for BSD licensed content (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/275). - Use the correct GPL license for plugin_utils (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/276). - community.hashi_vault plugins - tokens will be cast to a string type before being sent to ``hvac`` to prevent errors in ``requests`` when values are ``AnsibleUnsafe`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/289). - connection options - the ``namespace`` connection option will be forced into a string to ensure cmpatibility with recent ``requests`` versions (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/309). - modules - fix a "variable used before assignment" that cannot be reached but causes sanity test failures (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.hashi_vault/issues/296). community.libvirt ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - virt_net - fix modify function which was not idempotent, depending on whether the network was active. See https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.libvirt/issues/107. - virt_pool - crashed out if pool didn't contain a target path. Fix allows this not to be set. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.libvirt/issues/129). community.mysql ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Include ``simplified_bsd.txt`` license file for various module utils. - mysql_db - Using compression masks errors messages from mysql_dump. By default the fix is inactive to ensure retro-compatibility with system without bash. To activate the fix, use the module option ``pipefail=true`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/issues/256). - mysql_query - fix false change reports when ``IF EXISTS/IF NOT EXISTS`` clause is used (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/issues/268). - mysql_replication - when the ``primary_ssl`` argument is set to ``no``, the module will turn off SSL (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/issues/393). - mysql_role - don't add members to a role when creating the role and ``detach_members: true`` is set (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/pull/367). - mysql_role - in some cases (when "SHOW GRANTS" did not use backticks for quotes), no unwanted members were detached from the role (and redundant "GRANT" statements were executed for wanted members). This is fixed by querying the existing role members from the mysql.role_edges (MySQL) or mysql.roles_mapping (MariaDB) tables instead of parsing the "SHOW GRANTS" output (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/pull/368). - mysql_user - fix logic when ``update_password`` is set to ``on_create`` for users using ``plugin*`` arguments (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/issues/334). The ``on_create`` sets ``password`` to None for old mysql_native_authentication but not for authentiation methods which uses the ``plugin*`` arguments. This PR changes this so ``on_create`` also exchange ``plugin``, ``plugin_hash_string``, ``plugin_auth_string`` to None in the list of arguments to change - mysql_user - grant option was revoked accidentally when modifying users. This fix revokes grant option only when privs are setup to do that (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/issues/77#issuecomment-1209693807). - mysql_user, mysql_role - mysql/mariadb recent versions translate 'ALL PRIVILEGES' to a list of specific privileges. That caused a change every time we modified user privileges. This fix compares privs before and after user modification to avoid this infinite change (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/issues/77). community.network ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Collection core functions - use vendored version of ``distutils.version`` instead of the deprecated Python standard library ``distutils``. - Include ``PSF-license.txt`` file for ``plugins/module_utils/_version.py``. - Include ``simplified_bsd.txt`` license file for the ``icx`` and ``netvisor`` module utils. - ce - Modify the bug in the query configuration method (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.network/pull/56). - community.network.ce_switchport - fix error causing by ``KeyError:`` ``host`` due to properties aren't used anywhere (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.network/issues/313) - exos_config - fix a hang due to an unexpected prompt during save_when (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.network/pull/110). - weos4 cliconf plugin - fix linting errors in documentation data (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.network/pull/368). community.postgresql ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Include ``simplified_bsd.txt`` license file for various module utils. - postgresql_info - fix pg version parsing (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/315). - postgresql_info - make arguments passed to SHOW command properly quoted to prevent the interpreter evaluating them (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/314). - postgresql_pg_hba - support the connection types ``hostgssenc`` and ``hostnogssenc`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/pull/351). - postgresql_ping - fix pg version parsing (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/315). - postgresql_privs - add support for alter default privileges grant usage on schemas (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/332). - postgresql_privs - cannot grant select on objects in all schemas; add the ``not-specified`` value to the ``schema`` parameter to make this possible (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/332). - postgresql_privs.py - add functionality when the PostgreSQL version is 9.0.0 or greater to incorporate ``ALL x IN SCHEMA`` syntax (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/pull/282). Please see the official documentation for details regarding grants (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/sql-grant.html). - postgresql_set - avoid postgres puts extra quotes when passing values containing commas (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/78). - postgresql_subscription - fix idempotence by casting the ``connparams`` dict variable (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/280). - postgresql_user - add ``alter user``-statements in the return value ``queries`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/307). - postgresql_user - make the module idempotent when password is scram hashed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/301). community.rabbitmq ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - rabbitmq_queue - fixing an issue where a special character in the queue name would result in an API error (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.rabbitmq/issues/114). - user module - set supports_check_mode flag to False, as the module does not actually support check mode. community.routeros ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - Include ``LICENSES/BSD-2-Clause.txt`` file for the ``routeros`` module utils (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/101). - api_modify, api_info - make API path ``ip dhcp-server lease`` support ``server=all`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/issues/104, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/107). - api_modify, api_info - make API path ``ip dhcp-server network`` support missing options ``boot-file-name``, ``dhcp-option-set``, ``dns-none``, ``domain``, and ``next-server`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/issues/104, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/106). - api_modify, api_info - make API path ``ip dhcp-server`` support ``script``, and ``ip firewall nat`` support ``in-interface`` and ``in-interface-list`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.routeros/pull/110). community.sap_libs ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - syp_system_facts - fix a typo in the usage example which lead to an error if it used as supposed. community.sops ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - load_vars - ensure compatibility with newer versions of ansible-core (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.sops/pull/121). community.vmware ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - 2.9.0 wasn't released correctly, some changes are missing from the package.
