.What issues does this PR fix or reference?
Fixes #53039
Previous Behavior
If you run
salt-run --out=json cache.pillar tgt='doesnotexist'
with a target that does not exist it still returns all the cached pilllar data for ALL minions.New Behavior
If you run
salt-run --out=json cache.pillar tgt='doesnotexist'
with a target that does not exist will not return anything.Also as you can see I updated the docs to state:
If tgt is not set will return cached pillars for all minions.
The reason I did this is this is the current behavior that a user can runcache.pillar
without a tgt set and all pillar data would be returned,and the other reason istgt
is an not required as its currently a kwarg. For these reasons I kept this behavior as its expected. If we want to eventually require thetgt
argument for some reason then we would need to set it on a deprecation path, but I believe this change is best path for now.Tests written?
