Included the yield option to all the serial port types.
Added the ability for the network type to fallback to a custom network if the
specified network name is not found in netmap.conf.
Promoted the scope for both Read{Dhcp,Netmap}Config inside vmwcommon.driver.
Updated the documentation for the VMware builder.
builder/vmware/{iso,vmx}:
Added the specific configuration options that get parsed.
Normalize paths when pulling them from the json template so that they'll work on Windows too.
Added some improved error checking when parsing these options.
Stash the vm's network connection type so that other steps can figure out addressing information
Modified the esx5 driver to support the new addressing logic.
Modified the template in step_create_vmx to include the new options.
builder/vmware/common:
Implemented a parser for vmware's configuration files to the vmware builder.
Modified the driver's interface to include support for resolving both guest/host hw and ip addresses
Implemented a base structure with some methods that implement these features.
Rewrote all ip and mac address dependent code to utilize these new methods.
Removed host_ip and guest_ip due to their logic being moved directly into a
base-structure used by each driver. The code was explicitly checking runtime.GOOS
instead of portably using net.Interfaces() anyways.
Updated driver_mock to support the new addressing methods
Run now takes a context as well as a statebag. We'll assign the context
to the blank identifier to prevent namespace collisions. We'll let the
step authors opt-in to using the context.
`find . -iname "step_*.go" -exec gsed -i'' 's/func \(.*\)Run(/func \1Run(_ context.Context, /' {} \;`
This commit attempts to fix the timestamp-related part of #4885 by using the logic found in the analogous virtualbox implementation. In essence, it applies the solution from commit 93bb0d8 to the vmx case.
This commit adds a new option, `vmx_remove_ethernet_interfaces`, to both
of the VMWare builders. This is useful when building Vagrant boxes,
since Vagrant now produces output such as:
```
WARNING: The VMX file for this box contains a setting that is
automatically overwritten by Vagrant when started. Vagrant will stop
overwriting this setting in an upcoming release which may pre vent
proper networking setup. Below is the detected VMX setting:
ethernet0.pcislotnumber = "33"
If networking fails to properly configure, it may require this VMX
setting. It can be manually applied via the Vagrantfile:
Vagrant.configure(2) do |config|
config.vm.provider :vmware_fusion do |vmware|
vmware.vmx["ethernet0.pcislotnumber"] = "33"
end
end
```
This can be avoided entirely by removing the ethernet adapters from the
VMX file prior to packaging as a Vagrant box, in which case adapters are
created as expected according to the Vagrantfile specification.
