2018-06-15openstack: avoid unneeded metadata probe on non-openstack platformsChad Smith
OpenStack datasource is now discovered in init-local stage. In order to probe whether OpenStack metadata is present, it performs a costly sandboxed dhclient setup and metadata probe against http://169.254.169.254 for openstack data. Cloud-init properly detects non-OpenStack on EC2, but it spends precious time probing the metadata service also resulting in a confusing WARNING log about 'metadata not present'. To avoid the wasted cycles, and confusing warning, get_data will call a detect_openstack function to quickly determine whether the platform looks like OpenStack before trying to setup network to probe and crawl the metadata service.

2016-11-10doc: make the RST files consistently formated and other improvements.Scott Moser
The biggest things here are: * move doc/sources/*/README.rst to doc/rtd/topics/datasources This gives each datasource a page in the rtd docs, which make it easier to read. * consistently use the same header style throughout. As suggested at http://thomas-cokelaer.info/tutorials/sphinx/rest_syntax.html use: # with overline, for parts * with overline, for chapters =, for sections -, for subsections ^, for subsubsections “, for paragraphs Also, move and re-format vendor-data documentation to rtd.
