Facter 2.4.4
Released May 20, 2015
Facter 2.4.4 is a bug fix release in the Facter 2.4 series. It also
deprecates the --puppet command line option, since it caused circular load
dependencies. To run Facter in Puppet’s context, you should use the puppet
facts command instead.
* FACT-96: Deprecate ‘facter –puppet’
* FACT-628: facter returns incorrect value for facter virtual for Solaris Ldoms
* FACT-697: If NetworkManager is installed but not used facter throws a warning.
* FACT-975: On PPC64LE architecture, processors aren’t detected
* FACT-963: Remove pre-suite environment setup for AIO
Facter 2.4.3
Released April 2, 2015
Facter 2.4.3 is an AIO support release in the Facter 2.4 series that also
includes two improvements to performance, and multiple bug fixes.
AIO External Facts Directory Change
Changed external facts directory from /opt/puppetlabs/agent/facts.d to
/opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d on *nix. Windows is unchanged.
* FACT-826: Prepend AIO external facts directory for root
Improvements to Performance and Speed
* Reduced calls to ip link show for
performance. Facter::Util:IP.get_interface_value called
get_bonding_interface for every possible value, which could have caused
performance issues if many interfaces were being used.
* Improved the speed of puppetversion in standalone Facter. There is no
notable difference when calling Facter while Puppet is already
running. Previously, running Facter with --timing showed that puppetversion
was by far the slowest fact. This was not true when executed by Puppet, but
gave the impression that Puppet is slow.
Bugs
* FACT-893: selinux_config_policy returns “unknown” on Debian and RHEL7
* FACT-596: Fix to selinux_config_policy, always returned “unknown” on
Debian and RHEL7.
* FACT-825: Default timeout for prtdiag in the ‘virtual’ fact is too low
for large Solaris systems
* FACT-830: xendomains returning empty on debian hosts
* FACT-834: Only load ec2 rest once to avoid double loading warnings
* FACT-888: Facter does not properly detect KVM when CPU type is not
qenu32/qumu64
* FACT-894: Prepend ~/.puppetlabs/opt/facter/facts.d to external search path
for non-root
* FACT-805: use /etc/os-release on CoreOS
Full List of Issues

this one is thoroughly tested by me.
Changes since 1.5:
- Enabled a number of Windows facts - operating system, domain,
ipaddress, macaddress, kernel, ipconfig and others.
- macaddress now set on Ubuntu.
- CONFIG['bindir'] CONFIG['sbindir'] have undesirable defaults on.
- Allow specification of --bindir --sbindir --sitelibdir --mandir.
- Package creation scripts for Mac OS X.
- Solaris. (Whatever was done here, it's written like that in the ChangeLog.)
- Add module level tests for Facter::IPAddress.
- Add sample test and strawman solution for IP parsing code.
- Adding better SuSE detection for both operatingsystem and release.
- Adding a rake task for creating an archive.
- macaddress not set on Ubuntu.
- Modified the operatingsystem fact for Debian so it looks in
/etc/debian_version instead of /proc/version.
- Added virtual fact.
- Added kernelversion fact.
- Facter now defaults to 0 timeout.
- CentOS version detection is now better.
- Set the timeout the host-based and resolve-based resolutions to 2.
- Added a Process.waitall thread when there's a timeout, to avoid zombies.
- Update to dmidecode fact.
- Added operatingsystemrelease for Solaris.
- Updated virtual fact for xenu and xen0.
- Removed facter from PREREQS.
1.5:
Fixed#1400 - OperatingSystemRelease should now work on CentOS
Changed 'timeout' option to 'limit' to avoid scope issue
Fixes#1376 - Display memory facts for AIX
Fixes#1334 - Forced Facter to use LANG=C
Fixes#1357 - Change ps syntax for OSX and BSD
Set the timeout on the AIX kernelrelease fact to 5 seconds.
Refactored so each fact resolution can specify a separate timeout,
but the default is still 0.5.
Refactered ipmess.rb and util/ip.rb to support separate *BSD logic for
*BSD aliased interfaces.
Updated dmidecode facts fixing ticket #60
Added AIX support for some facts
Add lsbmajdistrelease fact for CentOS and Red Hat
Updated Red Hat spec file for new version
The 'facter' executable now has an option (-p|--puppet) for loading the
Puppet libraries, which gives it access to Puppet's facts.
Added autoloading to Facter with a default of not loading all facts,
which results in a significant speedup when only one fact is sought.
Facts are autoloaded in either a single file named after the fact or
in any file in a directory named after the fact.
Significantly refactored Facter's internals, including creating tests
for all internal classes.
A netmask fact has been added closing ticket #46. It only returns the
netmask of the primary interface (in the same behaviour as the ipaddress
and macaddress facts).
Facts to return multiple interfaces on a host have also been updated.
If you have multiple interfaces on Linux, *BSD, or Solaris/SunOS you will
now get facts for each interface's IP address, MAC address and netmask.
The facts will be structured like:
ipaddress_int = 10.0.0.x
macaddress_int = xx:xx:xx:xx
netmask_int = 255.255.255.0
Facter now identifies Ubuntu hosts and their releases using the
operatingsystem and operatingsystemrelease facts.
The Debian operatingsystemrelease fact now correctly returns the current
Debian release.
Fixed ticket #48 - ioperatingsystem and operatingsystemrelease for CentOS
Fixed ticket #44 and allowed support for Xen multiple interfaces and aliased
interfaces. Supports both Linux and *BSD.
Added interfaces fact to add as index for ip/MAC address facts
Added Mandrake support for operatingsystem fact - closed ticket #47
Fixed ticket #45
Added netmask.rb closing ticket #46
