Sometimes it's necessary to configure SELinux before it's enabled on the
system. There's `ignore_selinux_state` which should allow it. Before
this change `seboolean` module failed on SELinux disabled system even
with `ignore_selinux_state: true` and SELinux policy installed while
`semanage boolean` worked as expected:
$ ansible -i 192.168.121.153, -m seboolean -a "name=ssh_sysadm_login state=on ignore_selinux_state=true" all
192.168.121.153 | FAILED! => {
"ansible_facts": {
"discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python3"
},
"changed": false,
"msg": "Failed to get list of boolean names"
}
$ ssh root@192.168.121.153 semanage boolean -l | grep ssh_sysadm_login
ssh_sysadm_login (off , off) Allow ssh to sysadm login
It's caused by `selinux.security_get_boolean_names()` and
`selinux.security_get_boolean_active(name)` which required SELinux
enabled system.
This change adds a fallback to semanage API which works in SELinux
disabled system when SELinux targeted policy is installed:
ANSIBLE_LIBRARY=plugins/modules ansible -i 192.168.121.153, -m seboolean -a "name=ssh_sysadm_login state=on persistent=true ignore_selinux_state=true" all
192.168.121.153 | CHANGED => {
"ansible_facts": {
"discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python3"
},
"changed": true,
"name": "ssh_sysadm_login",
"persistent": true,
"state": true
}
$ ssh root@192.168.121.153 semanage boolean -l | grep ssh_sysadm_login
ssh_sysadm_login (on , on) Allow ssh to sysadm login
Note that without `persistent=true` this module is effectively NO-OP now.

the CI failures are unrelated and shouldn't even be showing up ... I'm going to sort that out separately but that doesn't need to prevent this merge, all relevant CI tests passed
Fix CI issues
SUMMARY
Sanity tests fail; remove problematic Shippable-specific parts of shippable.sh script.
