The render code path in `template_file` was doing unsynchronized access
to a shared mapping of functions in `config.Func`.
This caused a race condition that was most often triggered when a
`template_file` had a `count` of more than one, and expressed itself as
a panic in the plugin followed by a cascade of "unexpected EOF" errors
through the plugin system.
Here, we simply turn the FuncMap from shared state into a generated
value, which avoids the race. We do more re-initialization of the data
structure, but the performance implications are minimal, and we can
always revisit with a perf pass later now that the race is fixed.
This may be brittle as it makes use of .gitattributes to override the
autocrlf setting in order to have an input file with Windows line
endings across multiple platforms.
This was never intended to be valid syntax, but it worked in the old HCL
parser, and we've found a decent number of examples of it in the wild.
Fixed in https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl/pull/62 and we'll keep this
test in Terraform to cover the behavior.
Building on the work of #3846, deprecate `filename` in favor of a
`template` attribute that accepts file contents instead of a path.
Required a bit of work in the interpolation code to prevent Terraform
from assuming that template interpolations were resource variables that
needed to be resolved. Leaving them as "Unknown Variables" prevents
interpolation from happening early and lets the `template_file` resource
do its thing.
This test reproduces the issue which is likely the root cause of #3840.
Test is currently failing with an "illegal character" message
corresponding with the location of the heredoc, which is also seen in
various acceptance tests for providers.
It has improvements to error messaging that we want.
We'll use this occasion begin developing / building with Go 1.5 from
here on out. Build times will be slower, but we have core development
plans that will help mitigate that.

These new functions allow Terraform to be used for network address space
planning tasks, and make it easier to produce reusable modules that
contain or depend on network infrastructure.
For example:
- cidrsubnet allows an aws_subnet to derive its
CIDR prefix from its parent aws_vpc.
- cidrhost allows a fixed IP address for a resource to be assigned within
an address range defined elsewhere.
- cidrnetmask provides the dotted-decimal form of a prefix length that is
accepted by some systems such as routing tables and static network
interface configuration files.
The bulk of the work here is done by an external library I authored called
go-cidr. It is MIT licensed and was implemented primarily for the purpose
of using it within Terraform. It has its own unit tests and so the unit
tests within this change focus on simple success cases and on the correct
handling of the various error cases.
There isn't any precedent for abbreviating words in the interpolation
function names, and it may not be clear to all users what "enc" and "dec"
are short for, so instead we'll prefer to spell out the whole words for
improved readability.
It seems there are 4 locations left that use the `helper/multierror`
package, where the rest is TF settled on the `hashicorp/go-multierror`
package.
Functionally this doesn’t change anything, so I suggest to delete the
builtin version as it can only cause confusion (both packages have the
same name, but are still different types according to Go’s type system.
