1fe67f9 introduced retries to the ssh connection put file and fetch
file. Unfortunately, that change broke the smart transport because it
started raising exceptions instead of returning from _run(). This
breakage is documented in #23711.
An attempt to fix it was made at #23717 but the first attempt was
objected to as needing to touch too much code. The second attmept was
objected to as smart was forced to encapsulate retries (thus retrying
a sftp "rety" times before trying scp "retry" times and then finally
moving onto piped). This third attempt has retries encapsulate smart.
So each sub-transport is tried once and if all three fail, another retry
attempt is made which tries each of the three again.

* test/: PEP8 compliancy
- Make PEP8 compliant
* Python3 chokes on casting int to bytes (#24952)
But if we tell the formatter that the var is a number, it works
* eos python3 changes

* Fix py3 prompt issue for invalid show command
* Fix review comments
* Add generic fix for error prompt in py3
* Fix CI issue
* Fix network_cli unit test failure
Fix for persistent connection plugin on Python3. Note that fixes are also needed to each terminal plugin. This PR only fixes the ios terminal (as proof that this approach is workable.) Future PRs can address the other terminal types.
* On Python3, pickle needs to work with byte strings, not text strings.
* Set the pickle protocol version to 0 because we're using a pty to feed data to the connection plugin. A pty can't have control characters. So we have to send ascii only. That means
only using protocol=0 for pickling the data.
* ansible-connection isn't being used with py3 in the bug but it needs
several changes to work with python3.
* In python3, closing the pty too early causes no data to be sent. So
leave stdin open until after we finish with the ansible-connection
process.
* Fix typo using traceback.format_exc()
* Cleanup unnecessary StringIO, BytesIO, and to_bytes calls
* Modify the network_cli and terminal plugins for py3 compat. Lots of mixing of text and byte strings that needs to be straightened out to be compatible with python3
* Documentation for the bytes<=>text strategy for terminal plugins
* Update unittests for more bytes-oriented internals
Fixes#24355
Ansible will now automatically retry a connection if SSH returns an error:
mux_client_hello_exchange: write packet: Broken pipe
This is probably a bug in SSH, but because it's safe to retry this
connection there is no need for Ansible to fail because of it.
* Update module_utils.six to latest
We've been held back on the version of six we could use on the module
side to 1.4.x because of python-2.4 compatibility. Now that our minimum
is Python-2.6, we can update to the latest version of six in
module_utils and get rid of the second copy in lib/ansible/compat.
* Move retry logic into _ssh_retry decorator, and apply to exec_command, put_file and fetch_file
* Update tests to reflect change
* Move _ssh_retry to _run, and update tests to reflect
* piped should use exec_command instead of removed _exec_command
* Rework tests to support selectors instead of select.select
* fixes error where eos would close the cli shell
* fixes network_cli connection plugin to check before calling open_shell()
* fixes json commands being sent over eapi
* removes unneeded supports_multiplexing var
* refactors terminal_prompts_re to terminal_stdout_re
* refactors terminal_errors_re to terminal_stderr_re
* updates network_cli unit test cases
At the moment, this change will use EPoll on Linux, KQueue on *BSDs,
etc, so it should alleviate problems with too many open file
descriptors.
* Bundle a copy of selectors2 so that we have the selectors API everywhere.
* Add licensing information to selectors2 file so it's clear what the
licensing terms and conditions are.
* Exclude the bundled copy of selectors2 from our boilerplate code-smell test
* Rewrite ssh_run tests to attempt to work around problem with mocking
select on shippable
Fixes#14143
This adds back the change to the network_cli plugin. Ths change adds
the ensure_connect decorator to the open_shell() method to make sure
the connection is valid before trying to open a shell.
The issue was due to the addition of the decorator that will call
_connect() when there is no connection. The _connect() method should
have been mocked in the test case. This commit fixes the test
case as well
Change was originally reverted in c414ded69a
* Replace pipes.quote for shlex_quote
* More migration of pipes.quote to shlex_quote
Note that we cannot yet move module code over. Modules have six-1.4
bundled which does not have shlex_quote. This shouldn't be a problem as
the function is still importable from pipes.quote. It's just that this
has become an implementation detail that makes us want to import from
shlex instead.
Once we get rid of the python2.4 dependency we can update to a newer
version of bundled six module-side and then we're free to use
shlex_quote everywhere.
