Public bug reported:
Please sync awscli 1.11.13-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)
[Impact]
* The Amazon EC2 "Elastic Network Adapter" ('ENA') driver has recently been
SRU'd into most supported Ubuntu kernels (>= Trusty) via LP: #1635721.
However, to actually enable the ENA hardware on an EC2 instance requires
use of an 'awscli' userspace command:
aws ec2 modify-instance-attribute --ena-support ...
as documented here:
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/enhanced-networking-ena.html
The "modify-instance-attribute --ena-support" feature first appears in
the latest Debian (or Zesty) version of awscli and its dependencies. We
need the feature for Xenial and Yakkety.
* This set of three packages sync'ed from Debian is required, and
work fine in Xenial and Yakkety (a solution for trusty is t.b.d).
Note that Zesty already carries these exact package versions:
awscli (1.11.13-1)
python-botocore (1.4.70-1)
python-s3transfer (0.1.9-1)
* As a bonus this will also resolve an unrelated bug report:
LP: #1566352 "AWSCLI doesn't support S3 in eu-central-1"
[Test Case]
* Simple test: Check whether modify-instance-attribute mentions the feature:
$ aws ec2 modify-instance-attribute help | grep ena-support
[--ena-support | --no-ena-support] <-- yes
{no output} <-- no
* Full test: Launch an x1.32xlarge large instance with Ubuntu kernel version
>= xenial (4.4.0-47.68) or trusty (3.13.0-102.149), then follow AWS doc
url above to enable and verify --ena-support.
[Regression Potential]
* Updating awscli and python-botocore could possibly introduce regressions
in the myriad features they provide, but we believe these packages to be
backwards-compatible and well-tested upstream. The newer versions are
known to be widely used by Ubuntu users (e.g. installed from upstreams'
github). Any regressions would likely be reported to us (very quickly)
by AWS users.
* python-s3transfer is new as of Zesty so no regression potential is
expected for X and Y (the new awscli package depends on python-s3transfer).
* These packages (both old and new versions) have no Ubuntu-specific
divergence from Debian, so updating them all (X, Y, Z, and Debian)
to the same modern upstream baseline seems robust and safe.
Changelog entries since current xenial version 1.10.1-1:
awscli (1.11.13-1) unstable; urgency=medium
