With the upcoming changes to rebase onto the RHEL 7 STIG controls, there needs to be a new solution for documentation that is easier to manage and filter. This patch automates the generation of the STIG control documentation in the following way: * A Sphinx extension runs early in the doc build process that writes all of the individual STIG control docs as well as ToC pages. * ToC pages are now sorted by severity, tag, and implementation status. * A giant listing of controls is easier to navigate now. * Docs are generated from metadata in the /doc/metadata directory. New documentation only needs to be added there. (Will explain this in the developer notes in a subsequent patch.) Implements: blueprint security-rhel7-stig Change-Id: I455af1121049f52193e98e2c9cb1ba5d4c292386

**Configuration required**
|
|
|
|
The STIG recommends passwords to be a minimum of 14 characters in length. To
|
|
apply this setting, set the following Ansible variable:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
security_password_minimum_length: 14
|
|
|
|
Deployers are urged to avoid the use of passwords and rely upon SSH keys if
|
|
possible.
