Most of the groundwork was laid in previous PRs between adding the cert-monitor package to extracting the logic of signing certificates out of the connect_ca_endpoint.go code and into a method on the server.
This also refactors the auto-config package a bit to split things out into multiple files.
There were several PRs that while all passed CI independently, when they all got merged into the same branch caused compilation errors in test code.
The main changes that caused issues where changing agent/cache.Cache.New to require a concrete options struct instead of a pointer. This broke the cert monitor tests and the catalog_list_services_test.go. Another change was made to unembed the http.Server from the agent.HTTPServer struct. That coupled with another change to add a test to ensure cache rate limiting coming from HTTP requests was working as expected caused compilation failures.
This implements a solution for #7863
It does:
Add a new config cache.entry_fetch_rate to limit the number of calls/s for a given cache entry, default value = rate.Inf
Add cache.entry_fetch_max_burst size of rate limit (default value = 2)
The new configuration now supports the following syntax for instance to allow 1 query every 3s:
command line HCL: -hcl 'cache = { entry_fetch_rate = 0.333}'
in JSON
{
"cache": {
"entry_fetch_rate": 0.333
}
}
Replaces #7559
Running tests in parallel, with background goroutines, results in test output not being associated with the correct test. `go test` does not make any guarantees about output from goroutines being attributed to the correct test case.
Attaching log output from background goroutines also cause data races. If the goroutine outlives the test, it will race with the test being marked done. Previously this was noticed as a panic when logging, but with the race detector enabled it is shown as a data race.
The previous solution did not address the problem of correct test attribution because test output could still be hidden when it was associated with a test that did not fail. You would have to look at all of the log output to find the relevant lines. It also made debugging test failures more difficult because each log line was very long.
This commit attempts a new approach. Instead of printing all the logs, only print when a test fails. This should work well when there are a small number of failures, but may not work well when there are many test failures at the same time. In those cases the failures are unlikely a result of a specific test, and the log output is likely less useful.
All of the logs are printed from the test goroutine, so they should be associated with the correct test.
Also removes some test helpers that were not used, or only had a single caller. Packages which expose many functions with similar names can be difficult to use correctly.

The rationale behind removing them is that all of our own code (xDS, builtin connect proxy) use the cache notification mechanism. This ensures that the blocking fetch behind the scenes is always executing. Therefore the only way you might go to get a certificate and have to wait is when 1) the request has never been made for that cert before or 2) you are using the v1/agent/connect/ca/leaf API for retrieving the cert yourself.
In the first case, the refresh change doesn’t alter the behavior. In the second case, it can be mitigated by using blocking queries with that API which just like normal cache notification mechanism will cause the blocking fetch to be initiated and to get leaf certs as soon as needed.
If you are not using blocking queries, or Envoy/xDS, or the builtin connect proxy but are retrieving the certs yourself then the HTTP endpoint might take a little longer to respond.
This also renames the RefreshTimeout field on the register options to QueryTimeout to more accurately reflect that it is used for any type that supports blocking queries.
The fallback method would still work but it would get into a state where it would let the certificate expire for 10s before getting a new one. And the new one used the less secure RPC endpoint.
This is also a pretty large refactoring of the auto encrypt code. I was going to write some tests around the certificate monitoring but it was going to be impossible to get a TestAgent configured in such a way that I could write a test that ran in less than an hour or two to exercise the functionality.
Moving the certificate monitoring into its own package will allow for dependency injection and in particular mocking the cache types to control how it hands back certificates and how long those certificates should live. This will allow for exercising the main loop more than would be possible with it coupled so tightly with the Agent.
CheckAlias already had a waitGroup, but the Add() call was happening too late, which was causing a race in tests. The add must happen before the goroutine is started.
CheckHTTP did not have a waitGroup, so I added it to match CheckAlias.
It looks like a lot of the implementation could be shared, and may not need all of channel, waitgroup and bool, but I will leave that refactor for another time.
When the race detector is enabled we see this test fail occasionally. The reordering of execution seems to make it possible for the snapshot splice to happen before any events are published to the topicBuffers.
We can handle this case in the test the same way it is handled by a subscription, by proceeding to the next event.
This change was mostly automated with the following
First generate a list of functions with:
git grep -o 'Store) \([^(]\+\)(tx \*txn' ./agent/consul/state | awk '{print $2}' | grep -o '^[^(]\+'
Then the list was curated a bit with trial/error to remove and add funcs
as necessary.
Finally the replacement was done with:
dir=agent/consul/state
file=${1-funcnames}
while read fn; do
echo "$fn"
sed -i -e "s/(s \*Store) $fn(/$fn(/" $dir/*.go
sed -i -e "s/s\.$fn(/$fn(/" $dir/*.go
sed -i -e "s/s\.store\.$fn(/$fn(/" $dir/*.go
done < $file
Making these functions allows them to be used without introducing
an artificial dependency on the struct. Many of these will be called
from streaming Event processors, which do not have a store.
This change is being made ahead of the streaming work to get to reduce
the size of the streaming diff.
Move the subscription context to Next. context.Context should generally
never be stored in a struct because it makes that struct only valid
while the context is valid. This is rarely obvious from the caller.
Adds a forceClosed channel in place of the old context, and uses the new
context as a way for the caller to stop the Subscription blocking.
Remove some recursion out of bufferImte.Next. The caller is already looping so we can continue
in that loop instead of recursing. This ensures currentItem is updated immediately (which probably
does not matter in practice), and also removes the chance that we overflow the stack.
NextNoBlock and FollowAfter do not need to handle bufferItem.Err, the caller already
handles it.
Moves filter to a method to simplify Next, and more explicitly separate filtering from looping.
Also improve some godoc
Only unwrap itemBuffer.Err when necessary
EventPublisher was receiving TopicHandlers, which had a couple of
problems:
- ChangeProcessors were being grouped by Topic, but they completely
ignored the topic and were performed on every change
- ChangeProcessors required EventPublisher to be aware of database
changes
By moving ChangeProcesors out of EventPublisher, and having Publish
accept events instead of changes, EventPublisher no longer needs to
be aware of these things.
Handlers is now only SnapshotHandlers, which are still mapped by Topic.
Also allows us to remove the small 'db' package that had only two types.
They can now be unexported types in state.
The EventPublisher is the central hub of the PubSub system. It is toughly coupled with much of
stream. Some stream internals were exported exclusively for EventPublisher.
The two Subscribe cases (with or without index) were also awkwardly split between two packages. By
moving EventPublisher into stream they are now both in the same package (although still in different files).
Also store the index in Changes instead of the Txn.
This change is in preparation for movinng EventPublisher to the stream package, and
making handleACLUpdates async once again.
It is critical that Unsubscribe be called with the same pointer to a
SubscriptionRequest that was used to create the Subscription. The
docstring made that clear, but it sill allowed a caler to get it wrong by
creating a new SubscriptionRequest.
By hiding this detail from the caller, and only exposing an Unsubscribe
method, it should be impossible to fail to Unsubscribe.
Also update some godoc strings.
Use a separate lock for subscriptions.ByToken to allow it to happen synchronously
in the commit flow.
This removes the need to create a new txn for the goroutine, and removes
the need for EventPublisher to contain a reference to DB.
Many of the fields are only needed in one place, and by using a closure
they can be removed from the struct. This reduces the scope of the variables
making it esier to see how they are used.
Otherwise the test will run with exactly the same values each time.
By printing the seed we can attempt to reproduce the test by adding an env var to override the seed
Make topicRegistry use functions instead of unbound methods
Use a regular memDB in EventPublisher to remove a reference cycle
Removes the need for EventPublisher to use a store
Also remove secretHash, which was used to hash tokens. We don't expose
these tokens anywhere, so we can use the string itself instead of a
Hash.
Fix acl_events_test.go for storing a structs type.
