[PATCH 0/2] declared hosts support

[PATCH 0/2] declared hosts support

[Luis Chamberlain]

It should be easy for us to add bare metal support because well, the
biggest pain is bring up. If bringup and ssh is already configured,
then all we have to do is just skip a bunch of things. So the question
to ask, is how do we generate the hosts file? The easiest interface
I could think of is to allow you to specify it at make menuconfig time
or defconfig time with a DECLARE_HOSTS= specifier with either a space
or comma separated lists of hosts.

I tested this with a new workflow I am testing, minio WARP testing, but I
also tested this simply with a random host I can ssh to with just:

  make defconfig-xfs_reflink_4k DECLARE_HOSTS=foo ; make AV=2
  make uname

And that works. For my other workflow I am testing I got full test
restults and mkfs'd a drive. And so each workflow needs a bit of love
for further DECLARE_HOSTS support. Things like the data partition, and
so on. I suspect we can just specify some of these in the command line
as CLI variables.

But this goes with just basic raw support. Maybe we only enable
workflows for KDEVOPS_USE_DECLARED_HOSTS if we declare the workflow
as supporting it (maybe select SUPPORTS_DECLARED_HOSTS)?

[PATCH 1/2] gen_hosts: refactor monolithic hosts.j2 template into per-workflow templates

[Luis Chamberlain]

The hosts.j2 template had become unwieldy spaghetti code with all workflows
mixed together in a single file, making it difficult to read, maintain, and
extend. This was particularly problematic when attempting to add new features.

This refactoring:
- Splits the monolithic hosts.j2 into individual workflow templates under
  playbooks/roles/gen_hosts/templates/workflows/
- Creates dedicated templates for each workflow (fstests, blktests, selftests,
  mmtests, sysbench, ai, fio-tests, etc.)
- Converts the main hosts.j2 to use Jinja2 includes for cleaner organization
- Maintains exact same functionality with improved maintainability
- Removes workflow-specific template overrides from all workflow Makefiles
  as they now all use the unified hosts.j2 template

Benefits:
- Each workflow template is now self-contained and easy to understand
- Adding new workflows no longer requires navigating through hundreds of
  lines of unrelated configuration
- Template logic is easier to debug and test
- All workflows now use a consistent template system

This is a pure refactoring with no functional changes. The generated hosts
files remain identical to the previous implementation.

Sorry, these hunks should have been part of the second patch.

[PATCH 2/2] declared_hosts: add support for pre-existing infrastructure

[Luis Chamberlain]

This adds support for using pre-existing infrastructure (bare metal
servers, pre-provisioned VMs) that already have SSH access configured.
This is useful for environments where kdevops bringup/teardown is not
desired or possible.

Key features:
- New DECLARE_HOSTS CLI parameter to specify existing hosts
- Automatic detection of CLI override to enable declared hosts mode
- SKIP_BRINGUP is automatically selected when using declared hosts
- Hosts can be specified as space or comma-separated list
- For A/B testing workflows, odd-numbered hosts become baseline nodes
  and even-numbered hosts become dev nodes
- New Kconfig.declared_hosts for configuration options
- New declared-hosts.j2 template for generating inventory

Usage:
  make defconfig-xfs_reflink_4k DECLARE_HOSTS='server1 server2 server3'
  make  # Will skip bringup and use the declared hosts

The implementation assumes SSH access is already configured in the user's
~/.ssh/config or via SSH keys. No SSH configuration is generated by kdevops
when using declared hosts.

This feature integrates cleanly with the refactored template system,
using the same hosts.j2 entry point with a dedicated declared-hosts.j2
template for this mode.

+	  hosts in your ~/.ssh/config or have appropriate SSH keys set up.
+	  Ansible will use your existing SSH configuration to connect.

[PATCH 0/2] declared hosts support

[Luis Chamberlain]

This v2, just moves the hunks which were left on v1 to v2 where they
were supposed to go and also simplfies the logic by declaring the bools
as false originally on the roles that use them.

Luis Chamberlain (2):
  gen_hosts: refactor monolithic hosts.j2 template into per-workflow
    templates
  declared_hosts: add support for pre-existing infrastructure

[PATCH 2/2] declared_hosts: add support for pre-existing infrastructure

[Luis Chamberlain]

This adds support for using pre-existing infrastructure (bare metal
servers, pre-provisioned VMs) that already have SSH access configured.
This is useful for environments where kdevops bringup/teardown is not
desired or possible.

Key features:
- New DECLARE_HOSTS CLI parameter to specify existing hosts
- Automatic detection of CLI override to enable declared hosts mode
- SKIP_BRINGUP is automatically selected when using declared hosts
- Hosts can be specified as space or comma-separated list
- For A/B testing workflows, odd-numbered hosts become baseline nodes
  and even-numbered hosts become dev nodes
- New Kconfig.declared_hosts for configuration options
- New declared-hosts.j2 template for generating inventory

Usage:
  make defconfig-xfs_reflink_4k DECLARE_HOSTS='server1 server2 server3'
  make  # Will skip bringup and use the declared hosts

The implementation assumes SSH access is already configured in the user's
~/.ssh/config or via SSH keys. No SSH configuration is generated by kdevops
when using declared hosts.

This feature integrates cleanly with the refactored template system,
using the same hosts.j2 entry point with a dedicated declared-hosts.j2
template for this mode.

+	  Enable this option to use pre-existing hosts that you have already

+
+	  * Bare metal systems
+	  * Pre-provisioned VMs or cloud instances
+	  * Systems managed by other infrastructure tools
+
+	  When this option is enabled:
+	  - SSH keys will not be generated (assumes you already have access)
+	  - Bringup and teardown operations will be skipped
+	  - User and group settings will be inferred from the target hosts
+	  - You must provide the list of hosts in KDEVOPS_DECLARED_HOSTS
+
+	  This option automatically:
+	  - Selects WORKFLOW_INFER_USER_AND_GROUP to detect the correct
+	    user and group on the target systems
+	  - Assumes SSH access is already configured

+	  Provide a space or comma-separated list of hostnames or IP addresses
+	  that are already accessible via SSH.
+
+	  Examples:
+	  - Single host: "server1.example.com"
+	  - Multiple hosts: "server1.example.com server2.example.com"
+	  - IP addresses: "192.168.1.10 192.168.1.11"
+	  - Mixed: "server1.example.com 10.0.0.5 server2.local"
+
+	  For A/B testing workflows with baseline/dev configurations, you can
+	  provide an even number of hosts. The odd-numbered hosts will be used
+	  as baseline nodes and even-numbered hosts as dev nodes.
+
+	  Requirements:
+	  - SSH access must already be configured for these hosts
+	  - The user running kdevops must have passwordless SSH access
+	  - The hosts should have the required dependencies installed
+
+	  Note: kdevops assumes you have already configured SSH access to these
+	  hosts in your ~/.ssh/config or have appropriate SSH keys set up.
+	  Ansible will use your existing SSH configuration to connect.
