Ansible 2.20 has deprecated the use of Ansible facts as variables. For
example, ansible_distribution is now deprecated in favor of
ansible_facts["distribution"]. This is due to making the default
setting INJECT_FACTS_AS_VARS=false. For now, this will create WARNING
messages, but in Ansible 2.24 it will be an error.

In order to ensure that commits and PRs conform to this, use
ANSIBLE_INJECT_FACT_VARS=false by default in our CI testing.

Update README-ostree.md if needed.

Summary by Sourcery

Set Ansible fact injection off by default in CI to align tests with upcoming Ansible behavior.

CI:

  • Configure qemu-kvm integration tests workflow to run with ANSIBLE_INJECT_FACT_VARS disabled.
  • Pass SR_ANSIBLE_INJECT_FACT_VARS=false into the TFT workflow environment to ensure tests use fact variables explicitly.

Reviewer's Guide

Configures CI workflows to run Ansible with facts not injected as vars, aligning tests with Ansible 2.20+ behavior and enabling Terraform-based tests to pass through the new setting.

Set ANSIBLE_INJECT_FACT_VARS=false in GitHub Actions CI workflows to enforce the new Ansible facts usage model during testing.
  • Add ANSIBLE_INJECT_FACT_VARS="false" to the environment of the qemu-kvm integration tests workflow so all tox-based CI runs use facts without var injection.
  • Introduce SR_ANSIBLE_INJECT_FACT_VARS=false into the Terraform (tft) workflow’s SR_* variables string so that downstream tests executed via Terraform receive the new Ansible setting.

Hey - I've left some high level feedback:

  • Consider standardizing how ANSIBLE_INJECT_FACT_VARS is passed between the qemu-kvm and tft workflows (e.g., using the same env var name and mechanism rather than ANSIBLE_INJECT_FACT_VARS in one and SR_ANSIBLE_INJECT_FACT_VARS embedded in a vars string in the other) to keep configuration consistent and easier to maintain.
