Previously, we would emit service usage metrics both with and without a
namespace label attached. This is problematic in the case when you want
to aggregate metrics together, i.e. "sum(consul.state.services)". This
would cause services to be counted twice in that aggregate, once via the
metric emitted with a namespace label, and once in the metric emited
without any namespace label.
This is the recommended proxy integration API for listing intentions
which should not require an active connection to the servers to resolve
after the initial cache filling.
This allows for client agent to be run in a more stateless manner where they may be abruptly terminated and not expected to come back. If advertising a per-agent reconnect timeout using the advertise_reconnect_timeout configuration when that agent leaves, other agents will wait only that amount of time for the agent to come back before reaping it.
This has the advantageous side effect of causing servers to deregister the node/services/checks for that agent sooner than if the global reconnect_timeout was used.
Extend Consul’s intentions model to allow for request-based access control enforcement for HTTP-like protocols in addition to the existing connection-based enforcement for unspecified protocols (e.g. tcp).
- Upgrade the ConfigEntry.ListAll RPC to be kind-aware so that older
copies of consul will not see new config entries it doesn't understand
replicate down.
- Add shim conversion code so that the old API/CLI method of interacting
with intentions will continue to work so long as none of these are
edited via config entry endpoints. Almost all of the read-only APIs will
continue to function indefinitely.
- Add new APIs that operate on individual intentions without IDs so that
the UI doesn't need to implement CAS operations.
- Add a new serf feature flag indicating support for
intentions-as-config-entries.
- The old line-item intentions way of interacting with the state store
will transparently flip between the legacy memdb table and the config
entry representations so that readers will never see a hiccup during
migration where the results are incomplete. It uses a piece of system
metadata to control the flip.
- The primary datacenter will begin migrating intentions into config
entries on startup once all servers in the datacenter are on a version
of Consul with the intentions-as-config-entries feature flag. When it is
complete the old state store representations will be cleared. We also
record a piece of system metadata indicating this has occurred. We use
this metadata to skip ALL of this code the next time the leader starts
up.
- The secondary datacenters continue to run the old intentions
replicator until all servers in the secondary DC and primary DC support
intentions-as-config-entries (via serf flag). Once this condition it met
the old intentions replicator ceases.
- The secondary datacenters replicate the new config entries as they are
migrated in the primary. When they detect that the primary has zeroed
it's old state store table it waits until all config entries up to that
point are replicated and then zeroes its own copy of the old state store
table. We also record a piece of system metadata indicating this has
occurred. We use this metadata to skip ALL of this code the next time
the leader starts up.
This call appears to only be necessary because reset() was called from
NewMaterializer.
This commit has the constructor set a default value for updateCh, and
removes both the call to reset() from New(), and the call to
notifyUpdateLocked() from reset().
This should ensure that we do not notify the Fetch() call before we have new
values to report.

Rename MaterialziedView to Materialzier.
Rename to NewMaterializer
Pass in retry.Waiter
This adds a new very tiny memdb table and corresponding raft operation
for updating a very small effective map[string]string collection of
"system metadata". This can persistently record a fact about the Consul
state machine itself.
The first use of this feature will come in a later PR.
This new package provides a client agent implementation of an interface
for fetching the health of services.
This approach has a number of benefits:
1. It provides a much more explicit interface. Instead of everything
dependency on `RPC()` and `Cache.Get()` for many unrelated things
they can depend on a type that are named according to the behaviour
it provides.
2. It gives us a single place to vary the behaviour and migrate to
a new form of RPC (gRPC). The current implementation has two options
(cache, or direct RPC), and in the future we will have more.
It is also a great opporunity to start adding `context.Context` args
to these operations, which in the future will allow us to cancel
the operations.
3. As a concequence of the first, in the Server agent where we make
these calls we can replace the current in-memory RPC calls with
a thin adapter for the real method. This removes the `net/rpc`
machinery from the call in places where it is not needed.
This new package is quite small right now, but I think we can expect it
to grow to a more reasonable size as other RPC calls are replaced.
This change also happens to replace two very similar implementations with
a single implementation.
Reduce Jitter to one function
Rename NewRetryWaiter
Fix a bug in calculateWait where maxWait was applied before jitter, which would make it
possible to wait longer than maxWait.
This really only matters for unit tests, since typically if an agent shuts down its server, it follows that up by exiting the process, which would also clean up all of the networking anyway.
The subscribe endpoint needs to be able to inspect the payload to filter
events, and convert them into the protobuf types.
Use the protobuf CatalogOp type for the operation field, for now. In the
future if we end up with multiple interfaces we should be able to remove
the protobuf dependency by changing this to an int32 and adding a test
for the mapping between the values.
Make the value of the payload a concrete type instead of interface{}. We
can create other payloads for other event types.
The router.Manager is already rebalancing servers for other connection pools, so it can call into our resolver to do the same.
This change allows us to remove the serf dependency from resolverBuilder, and remove Datacenter from the config.
Also revert the change to refreshServerRebalanceTimer
It only needs to be refereced from the Router, because there is only 1 instance, and the
Router can call AddServer/RemoveServer like it does on the Manager.
Rename GRPCClient to ClientConnPool. This type appears to be more of a
conn pool than a client. The clients receive the connections from this
pool.
Reduce some dependencies by adjusting the interface baoundaries.
Remove the need to create a second slice of Servers, just to pick one and throw the rest away.
Unexport serverResolver, it is not used outside the package.
Use a RWMutex for ServerResolverBuilder, some locking is read-only.
Add more godoc.
* fix lessThanHalfTime
* get lock for CAProvider()
* make a var to relate both vars
* rename to getCAProviderWithLock
* move CertificateTimeDriftBuffer to agent/connect/ca
In an upcoming change we will need to pass a grpc.ClientConnPool from
BaseDeps into Server. While looking at that change I noticed all of the
existing consulOption fields are already on BaseDeps.
Instead of duplicating the fields, we can create a struct used by
agent/consul, and use that struct in BaseDeps. This allows us to pass
along dependencies without translating them into different
representations.
I also looked at moving all of BaseDeps in agent/consul, however that
created some circular imports. Resolving those cycles wouldn't be too
bad (it was only an error in agent/consul being imported from
cache-types), however this change seems a little better by starting to
introduce some structure to BaseDeps.
This change is also a small step in reducing the scope of Agent.
Also remove some constants that were only used by tests, and move the
relevant comment to where the live configuration is set.
Removed some validation from NewServer and NewClient, as these are not
really runtime errors. They would be code errors, which will cause a
panic anyway, so no reason to handle them specially here.
When calling `GetDatacentersByDistance()` or `GetDatacentersMap()`, an
incorrect condition was used to diplay log message, thus flooding
Consul's logs.
Example of message:
```
[WARN] agent.router: Non-server in server-only area: non_server=myClientNode area=lan
```
This message is only valid for WAN areas, filter to avoid creating
hundreds of logs/s on our clusters, each time someone is calling this
method.
Our logs were flooded by such messages when migrating our Consul servers
from 1.7.7 to 1.8.4.
This will issue fix#8663
Occasionally this test would flake. The flakes were fixed by:
1. Stopping the service and retrying to check on metrics. This way we
also include the active_streams going to 0 in the metric calls.
2. Using a reference to the global Metrics. This way when other tests
have background goroutines that are still shutting down, they won't
emit metrics to the metric instance with the fake Sink. The stats
test can patch the local reference to the global, so the existing
statHandlers will continue to emit to the global, but the stats
test will send all metrics to the replacement.
https server.
In #8234 I changed a few tests to use TestAgent.HTTPAddr() to find the
addr used in the test. Due to the way HTTPAddr() was implemented these
tests were passing, but I think the pass was incidental. HTTPAddr() was
not matching any servers, and was instead returning the last server,
which happened to be the one these tests wanted.
This commit fixes the implementation of HTTPAddr to panic if no match
was found. The tests which require an HTTPS server are changed to use
a new firstAddr() to look up the correct address.
secondaryIntermediateCertRenewalWatch was using `retryLoopBackoff` to
renew the intermediate certificate. Once it entered the inner loop and
started `retryLoopBackoff` it would never leave that.
`retryLoopBackoffAbortOnSuccess` will return when renewing is
successful, like it was intended originally.
The nodeCheck slice was being used as the first arg in append, which in some cases will modify the array backing the slice. This would lead to service checks for other services in the wrong event.
Also refactor some things to reduce the arguments to functions.
Creating a new readTxn does not work because it will not see the newly created objects that are about to be committed. Instead use the active write Txn.
Whenever an upsert/deletion of a config entry happens, within the open
state store transaction we speculatively test compile all discovery
chains that may be affected by the pending modification to verify that
the write would not create an erroneous scenario (such as splitting
traffic to a subset that did not exist).
If a single discovery chain evaluation references two config entries
with the same kind and name in different namespaces then sometimes the
upsert/deletion would be falsely rejected. It does not appear as though
this bug would've let invalid writes through to the state store so the
correction does not require a cleanup phase.
This commit refactors the state store usage code to track unique service
name changes on transaction commit. This means we only need to lookup
usage entries when reading the information, as opposed to iterating over
a large number of service indices.
- Take into account a service instance's name being changed
- Do not iterate through entire list of service instances, we only care
about whether there is 0, 1, or more than 1.
We add a WriteTxn interface for use in updating the usage memdb table,
with the forward-looking prospect of incrementally converting other
functions to accept interfaces.
As well, we use the ReadTxn in new usage code, and as a side effect
convert a couple of existing functions to use that interface as well.
Using the newly provided state store methods, we periodically emit usage
metrics from the servers.
We decided to emit these metrics from all servers, not just the leader,
because that means we do not have to care about leader election flapping
causing metrics turbulence, and it seems reasonable for each server to
emit its own view of the state, even if they should always converge
rapidly.
