Ansible v2.17.0
Major Changes:
- urls.py - Removed support for Python 2

Minor Changes:
- Add ``dump`` and ``passno`` mount information to facts component (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/80478)
- Added MIRACLE LINUX 9.2 in RedHat OS Family.
- Interpreter Discovery - Remove hardcoded references to specific python interpreters to use for certain distro versions, and modify logic for python3 to become the default.
- Use Python's built-in ``functools.update_wrapper`` instead an inline copy from Python 3.7.
- User can now set ansible.log to record higher verbosity than what is specified for display via new configuration item LOG_VERBOSITY.
- ``DEFAULT_PRIVATE_ROLE_VARS`` is now overridden by explicit setting of ``public`` for ``include_roles`` and ``import_roles``.
- ``ansible-galaxy role|collection init`` - accept ``--extra-vars`` to supplement/override the variables ``ansible-galaxy`` injects for templating ``.j2`` files in the skeleton.
- ``import_role`` action now also gets a ``public`` option that controls variable exports,  default depending on ``DEFAULT_PRIVATE_ROLE_VARS`` (if using defaults equates to ``public=True``).
- added configuration item ``TARGET_LOG_INFO`` that allows the user/author to add an information string to the log output on targets.
- ansible-doc - treat double newlines in documentation strings as paragraph breaks. This is useful to create multi-paragraph notes in module/plugin documentation (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/82465).
- ansible-doc output has been revamped to make it more visually pleasing when going to a terminal, also more concise, use -v to show extra information.
- ansible-galaxy - Started normalizing build directory with a trailing separator when building collections, internally. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/81619).
- ansible-galaxy dependency resolution messages have changed the unexplained 'virtual' collection for the specific type ('scm', 'dir', etc) that is more user friendly
- ansible-test - Add Alpine 3.19 container.
- ansible-test - Add Alpine 3.19 to remotes.
- ansible-test - Add Fedora 39 container.
- ansible-test - Add Fedora 39 remote.
- ansible-test - Add a work-around for permission denied errors when using ``pytest >= 8`` on multi-user systems with an installed version of ``ansible-test``.
- ansible-test - Add support for RHEL 9.3 remotes.
- ansible-test - Added a macOS 14.3 remote VM.
- ansible-test - Bump the ``nios-test-container`` from version 2.0.0 to version 3.0.0.
- ansible-test - Containers and remotes managed by ansible-test will have their Python ``EXTERNALLY-MANAGED`` marker (PEP668) removed. This provides backwards compatibility for existing tests running in newer environments which mark their Python as externally managed. A future version of ansible-test may change this behavior, requiring tests to be adapted to such environments.
- ansible-test - Make Python 3.12 the default version used in the ``base`` and ``default`` containers.
- ansible-test - Remove Alpine 3(.18) container.
- ansible-test - Remove Alpine 3.18 from remotes.
- ansible-test - Remove Fedora 38 remote support.
- ansible-test - Remove Fedora 38 test container.
- ansible-test - Remove rhel/9.2 test remote
- ansible-test - Remove the FreeBSD 13.2 remote.
- ansible-test - Removed fallback to ``virtualenv`` when ``-m venv`` is non-functional.
- ansible-test - Removed test remotes: macos/13.2
- ansible-test - Removed the ``no-basestring`` sanity test. The test is no longer necessary now that Python 3 is required.
- ansible-test - Removed the ``no-dict-iteritems``, ``no-dict-iterkeys`` and ``no-dict-itervalues`` sanity tests. The tests are no longer necessary since Python 3 is required.
- ansible-test - Removed the ``no-main-display`` sanity test. The unwanted pattern is unlikely to occur, since the test has existed since Ansible 2.8.
- ansible-test - Removed the ``no-unicode-literals`` sanity test. The test is unnecessary now that Python 3 is required and the ``unicode_literals`` feature has no effect.
- ansible-test - Special handling for installation of ``cryptography`` has been removed, as it is no longer necessary.
- ansible-test - The ``shellcheck`` sanity test no longer disables the ``SC2164`` check. In most cases, seeing this error means the script is missing ``set -e``.
- ansible-test - The ``unidiomatic-typecheck`` rule has been enabled in the ``pylint`` sanity test.
- ansible-test - The ``unidiomatic-typecheck`` rule has been removed from the ``validate-modules`` sanity test.
- ansible-test - Update the base and default containers to use Ubuntu 22.04 for the base image. This also updates PowerShell to version 7.4.0 with .NET 8.0.0 and ShellCheck to version 0.8.0.
- ansible-test - Updated the CloudStack test container to version 1.7.0.
- ansible-test - Updated the distro test containers to version 6.3.0 to include coverage 7.3.2 for Python 3.8+. The alpine3 container is now based on 3.18 instead of 3.17 and includes Python 3.11 instead of Python 3.10.
- ansible-test - Updated the distro test containers to version 7.1.0.
- ansible-test - When ansible-test installs requirements, it now instructs pip to allow installs on externally managed environments as defined by PEP 668. This only occurs in ephemeral environments managed by ansible-test, such as containers, or when the `--requirements` option is used.
- ansible-test - When invoking ``sleep`` in containers during container setup, the ``env`` command is used to avoid invoking the shell builtin, if present.
- ansible-test - document block name now included in error message for YAML parsing errors (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82353).
- ansible-test - sanity test allows ``EXAMPLES`` to be multi-document YAML (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82353).
- ansible-test now has FreeBSD 13.3 and 14.0 support
- ansible.builtin.user - Remove user not found warning (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/80267)
- apt_repository.py - use api.launchpad.net endpoint instead of launchpad.net/api
- async tasks can now also support check mode at the same time.
- async_status now supports check mode.
- constructed inventory plugin - Adding a note that only group_vars of explicit groups are loaded (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/82580).
- csvfile - add a keycol parameter to specify in which column to search.
- dnf - add the ``best`` option
- dnf5 - add the ``best`` option
- filter plugin - Add the count and mandatory_count parameters in the regex_replace filter
- find - add a encoding parameter to specify which encoding of the files to be searched.
- git module - gpg_allowlist name was added in 2.17 and we will eventually deprecate the gpg_whitelist alias.
- import_role - allow subdirectories with ``_from`` options for parity with ``include_role`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82584).
- module argument spec - Allow module authors to include arbitrary additional context in the argument spec, by making use of a new top level key called ``context``. This key should be a dict type. This allows for users to customize what they place in the argument spec, without having to ignore sanity tests that validate the schema.
- modules - Add the ability for an action plugin to call ``self._execute_module(*, ignore_unknown_opts=True)`` to execute a module with options that may not be supported for the version being called. This tells the module basic wrapper to ignore validating the options provided match the arg spec.
- package action now has a configuration that overrides the detected package manager, it is still overridden itself by the use option.
- py3compat - Remove ``ansible.utils.py3compat`` as it is no longer necessary
- removed the unused argument ``create_new_password`` from ``CLI.build_vault_ids`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/82066).
- urls - Add support for TLS 1.3 post handshake certificate authentication - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81782
- urls - reduce complexity of ``Request.open``
- user - accept yescrypt hash as user password
- validate-modules tests now correctly handles ``choices`` in dictionary format.

Breaking Changes / Porting Guide:
- assert - Nested templating may result in an inability for the conditional to be evaluated. See the porting guide for more information.

Deprecated Features:
- Old style vars plugins which use the entrypoints `get_host_vars` or `get_group_vars` are deprecated. The plugin should be updated to inherit from `BaseVarsPlugin` and define a `get_vars` method as the entrypoint.
- The 'required' parameter in 'ansible.module_utils.common.process.get_bin_path' API is deprecated (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82464).
- ``module_utils`` - importing the following convenience helpers from ``ansible.module_utils.basic`` has been deprecated: ``get_exception``, ``literal_eval``, ``_literal_eval``, ``datetime``, ``signal``, ``types``, ``chain``, ``repeat``, ``PY2``, ``PY3``, ``b``, ``binary_type``, ``integer_types``, ``iteritems``, ``string_types``, ``test_type``, ``map`` and ``shlex_quote``.
- ansible-doc - role entrypoint attributes are deprecated and eventually will no longer be shown in ansible-doc from ansible-core 2.20 on (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82639, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/82678).
- paramiko connection plugin, configuration items in the global scope are being deprecated and will be removed in favor or the existing same options in the plugin itself. Users should not need to change anything (how to configure them are the same) but plugin authors using the global constants should move to using the plugin's get_option().

Removed Features (previously deprecated):
- Remove deprecated APIs from ansible-docs (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81716).
- Remove deprecated JINJA2_NATIVE_WARNING environment variable (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81714)
- Remove deprecated ``scp_if_ssh`` from ssh connection plugin (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81715).
- Remove deprecated crypt support from ansible.utils.encrypt (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81717)
- Removed Python 2.7 and Python 3.6 as a supported remote version. Python 3.7+ is now required for target execution.
- With the removal of Python 2 support, the yum module and yum action plugin are removed and redirected to ``dnf``.

Security Fixes:
- ANSIBLE_NO_LOG - Address issue where ANSIBLE_NO_LOG was ignored (CVE-2024-0690)
- ansible-galaxy - Prevent roles from using symlinks to overwrite files outside of the installation directory (CVE-2023-5115)
- templating - Address issues where internal templating can cause unsafe variables to lose their unsafe designation (CVE-2023-5764)

Bug Fixes:
- Add a version ceiling constraint for pypsrp to avoid potential breaking changes in the 1.0.0 release.
- All core lookups now use set_option(s) even when doing their own custom parsing. This ensures that the options are always the proper type.
- Allow for searching handler subdir for included task via include_role (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81722)
- AnsibleModule.atomic_move - fix preserving extended ACLs of the destination when it exists (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/72929).
- Cache host_group_vars after instantiating it once and limit the amount of repetitive work it needs to do every time it runs.
- Call PluginLoader.all() once for vars plugins, and load vars plugins that run automatically or are enabled specifically by name subsequently.
- Consolidate systemd detection logic into one place (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/80975).
- Consolidated the list of internal static vars, centralized them as constant and completed from some missing entries.
- Do not print undefined error message twice (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78703).
- Enable file cache for vaulted files during vars lookup to fix a strong performance penalty in huge and complex playbboks.
- Fix NEVRA parsing of package names that include digit(s) in them (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76463, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81018)
- Fix ``force_handlers`` not working with ``any_errors_fatal`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/36308)
- Fix ``run_once`` being incorrectly interpreted on handlers (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81666)
- Fix an issue when setting a plugin name from an unsafe source resulted in ``ValueError: unmarshallable object`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82708)
- Fix check for missing _sub_plugin attribute in older connection plugins (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/82954)
- Fix condition for unquoting configuration strings from ini files (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82387).
- Fix for when ``any_errors_fatal`` was ignored if error occurred in a block with always (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/31543)
- Fix handlers not being executed in lockstep using the linear strategy in some cases (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82307)
- Fix handling missing urls in ansible.module_utils.urls.fetch_file for Python 3.
- Fix issue where an ``include_tasks`` handler in a role was not able to locate a file in ``tasks/`` when ``tasks_from`` was used as a role entry point and ``main.yml`` was not present (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82241)
- Fix issues when tasks withing nested blocks wouldn't run when ``force_handlers`` is set (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81533)
- Fix loading vars_plugins in roles (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82239).
- Fix notifying role handlers by listen keyword topics with the "role_name : " prefix (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82849).
- Fix setting proper locale for git executable when running on non english systems, ensuring git output can always be parsed.
- Fix tasks in always section not being executed for nested blocks with ``any_errors_fatal`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/73246)
- Fixes permission for cache json file from 600 to 644 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82683).
- Give the tombstone error for ``include`` pre-fork like other tombstoned action/module plugins.
- Harden python templates for respawn and ansiballz around str literal quoting
- Include the task location when a module or action plugin is deprecated (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82450).
- Interpreter discovery - Add ``Amzn`` to ``OS_FAMILY_MAP`` for correct family fallback for interpreter discovery (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/80882).
- Mirror the behavior of dnf on the command line when handling NEVRAs with omitted epoch (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/71808)
- Plugin loader does not dedupe nor cache filter/test plugins by file basename, but full path name.
- Properly template tags in parent blocks (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81053)
- Provide additional information about the alternative plugin in the deprecation message (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/80561).
- Remove the galaxy_info field ``platforms`` from the role templates (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82453).
- Restoring the ability of filters/tests can have same file base name but different tests/filters defined inside.
- Reword the error message when the module fails to parse parameters in JSON format (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81188).
- Reword warning if the reserved keyword _ansible_ used as a module parameter (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82514).
- Run all handlers with the same ``listen`` topic, even when notified from another handler (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82363).
- Slight optimization to hostvars (instantiate template only once per host, vs per call to var).
- Stopped misleadingly advertising ``async`` mode support in the ``reboot`` module (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/71517).
- ``ansible-galaxy role import`` - fix using the ``role_name`` in a standalone role's ``galaxy_info`` metadata by disabling automatic removal of the ``ansible-role-`` prefix. This matches the behavior of the Galaxy UI which also no longer implicitly removes the ``ansible-role-`` prefix. Use the ``--role-name`` option or add a ``role_name`` to the ``galaxy_info`` dictionary in the role's ``meta/main.yml`` to use an alternate role name.
- ``ansible-test sanity --test runtime-metadata`` - add ``action_plugin`` as a valid field for modules in the schema (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/82562).

- dnf5 - replace removed API calls
- dnf5 - respect ``allow_downgrade`` when installing packages directly from rpm files
- dnf5 - the ``nobest`` option only overrides the distribution default when used
- dwim functions for lookups should be better at detectging role context even in abscense of tasks/main.
- ensure we have logger before we log when we have increased verbosity.
- expect - fix argument spec error using timeout=null (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/80982).
