This change removes several usages of eventlet from IPA: - Upgrades all requirements on oslo library versions to new ones that support non-eventlet use. - Removes use of the eventlet wsgi server (via oslo_service.wsgi) and replaces it with the cheroot wsgi server. - Removes explicit patching of python modules with eventlet Note that due to some oslo libraries still using ``eventlet`` to detect and workaround it's use. This means that it is still installed in environments alongside IPA, even if it's not used or patched into any modules.

Ironic Python Agent
Team and repository tags
Overview
An agent for controlling and deploying Ironic controlled baremetal nodes.
The ironic-python-agent works with the agent driver in Ironic to provision the node. Starting with ironic-python-agent running on a ramdisk on the unprovisioned node, Ironic makes API calls to ironic-python-agent to provision the machine. This allows for greater control and flexibility of the entire deployment process.
The ironic-python-agent may also be used with the original Ironic pxe drivers as of the Kilo OpenStack release.
Building the IPA deployment ramdisk
