Puppet / PUP-10928 Add a setting to prevent falling back to non-rich data Change By: Josh Cooper

If a catalog contains binary data, such as kerberos keytab files, then puppetserver will fallback to PSON. However, if the catalog also contains Sensitive/Binary/Deferred etc data types, then they will not work properly since rich data can't be serialized via PSON currently . Falling back also makes troubleshooting more difficult, because the failure occurs on the agent when applying the catalog, when storing the cached catalog or updating the persistence store. Failing compilation makes it easier to debug what's going on and more quickly identify the resource that caused serialization to fail. PUP-11787 will add a warning when fallback occurs. In this ticket, we'll add a setting to prevent fallback.

Puppet / PUP-10928 Add a setting to prevent falling back to non-rich data

Change By: Aria Li Release Notes Summary: The setting, allow_pson_serialization, was first introduced in Puppet 7.x. This setting allows users to turn PSON serialization on or off using a boolean. allow_pson_serialization defaults to true in Puppet 7.x and defaults to false in Puppet 8. When set to false, a warning will be raised when falling back to PSON and when set to true, an error will be raised instead. This option affects both puppetserver's configuration management service responses and when the agent saves its cached catalog.
