* config: refactor ReadPath(s) methods without side-effects
Return the sources instead of modifying the state.
* config: clean data dir before every test
* config: add tests for config-file and config-dir
* config: add -config-format option
Starting with Consul 1.0 all config files must have a '.json' or '.hcl'
extension to make it unambigous how the data should be parsed. Some
automation tools generate temporary files by appending a random string
to the generated file which obfuscates the extension and prevents the
file type detection.
This patch adds a -config-format option which can be used to override
the auto-detection behavior by forcing all config files or all files
within a config directory independent of their extension to be
interpreted as of this format.
Fixes#3620
* Relaxes Autopilot promotion logic.
When we defaulted the Raft protocol version to 3 in #3477 we made
the numPeers() routine more strict to only count voters (this is
more conservative and more correct). This had the side effect of
breaking rolling updates because it's at odds with the Autopilot
non-voter promotion logic.
That logic used to wait to only promote to maintain an odd quorum
of servers. During a rolling update (add one new server, wait, and
then kill an old server) the dead server cleanup would still count
the old server as a peer, which is conservative and the right thing
to do, and no longer count the non-voter. This would wait to promote,
so you could get into a stalemate. It is safer to promote early than
remove early, so by promoting as soon as possible we have chosen
that as the solution here.
Fixes#3611
* Gets rid of unnecessary extra not-a-voter check.
This patch adds a /v1/coordinate/node/:node endpoint to get the network
coordinates for a single node in the network.
Since Consul Enterprise supports network segments it is still possible
to receive mutiple entries for a single node - one per segment.
The Docker agent closes the connection during read after we have
read the body. This causes a "connection reset by peer" even though
the command was successful.
We ignore that error here since we got the correct status code
and a response body.
The anti-entropy tests relied on the side-effect of the StartSync()
method to perform a full sync instead of a partial sync. This lead to
multiple anti-entropy go routines being started unnecessary retry loops.
This change changes the behavior to perform synchronous full syncs when
necessary removing the need for all of the time.Sleep and most of the
retry loops.
The state of the service and health check records was spread out over
multiple maps guarded by a single lock. Access to the maps has to happen
in a coordinated effort and the tests often violated this which made
them brittle and racy.
This patch replaces the multiple maps with a single one for both checks
and services to make the code less fragile.
This is also necessary since moving the local state into its own package
creates circular dependencies for the tests. To avoid this the tests can
no longer access internal data structures which they should not be doing
in the first place.
The tests still don't compile but this is a ncessary step in that
direction.
The anti-entropy code manages background synchronizations of the local
state on a regular basis or on demand when either the state has changed
or a new consul server has been added.
This patch moves the anti-entropy code into its own package and
decouples it from the local state code since they are performing
two different functions.
To simplify code-review this revision does not make any optimizations,
renames or refactorings. This will happen in subsequent commits.
The `consul agent` command was ignoring extra command line arguments
which can lead to confusion when the user has for example forgotten to
add a dash in front of an argument or is not using an `=` when setting
boolean flags to `true`. `-bootstrap true` is not the same as
`-bootstrap=true`, for example.
Since all command line flags are known and we don't expect unparsed
arguments we can return an error. However, this may make it slightly
more difficult in the future if we ever wanted to have these kinds of
arguments.
Fixes#3397
DNS recursors can be added through go-sockaddr templates. Entries
are deduplicated while the order is maintained.

This patch removes the porter tool which hands out free ports from a
given range with a library which does the same thing. The challenge for
acquiring free ports in concurrent go test runs is that go packages are
tested concurrently and run in separate processes. There has to be some
inter-process synchronization in preventing processes allocating the
same ports.
freeport allocates blocks of ports from a range expected to be not in
heavy use and implements a system-wide mutex by binding to the first
port of that block for the lifetime of the application. Ports are then
provided sequentially from that block and are tested on localhost before
being returned as available.
Queries to the DNS server can contain an optional datacenter
name in the query name. You can query for 'foo.service.consul'
or 'foo.service.dc.consul' to get a response for either the
default or a specific datacenter.
Datacenter names cannot have dots, therefore the datacenter
name can refer to only one element in the DNS query name.
The DNS server allowed extra labels between the optional
datacenter name and the domain and returned a valid response
instead of returning NXDOMAIN. For example, if the domain
is set to '.consul' then 'foo.service.dc1.extra.consul'
should return NXDOMAIN because of 'extra' being between
the datacenter name 'dc1' and the domain '.consul'.

* Updates the API client to support the current `ScriptArgs` parameter
for checks.
* Updates docs for checks to explain the `ScriptArgs` parameter issue.
* Adds mappings for "args" and "script-args" to give th API parity
with config.
* Adds checks on return codes.
* Removes debug logging that shows empty when args are used.
* Adds a brief wait and poll period to update the check status
if we get stucking waiting for the processes to terminate.
Fixes#3570
* Jumps out of timeout case and includes script output.
* Kill check processes after the timeout is reached
Kill the subprocess spawned by a script check once the timeout is reached. Previously Consul just marked the check critical and left the subprocess around.
Fixes#3565.
* Set err to non-nil when timeout occurs
* Fix check timeout test
* Kill entire process subtree on check timeout
* Add a docs note about windows subprocess termination
* agent: add option to discard health output
In high volatile environments consul will have checks with "noisy"
output which changes every time even though the status does not change.
Since the output is stored in the raft log every health check update
unblocks a blocking call on health checks since the raft index has
changed even though the status of the health checks may not have changed
at all. By discarding the output of the health checks the users can
choose a different tradeoff. Less visibility on why a check failed in
exchange for a reduced change rate on the raft log.
* agent: discard output also when adding a check
* agent: add test for discard check output
* agent: update docs
* go vet
* Adds discard_check_output to reloadable config table.
* Updates the change log.
* Fixes agent error handling when check definition is invalid. Distinguishes between empty checks vs invalid checks
* Made CheckTypes return Checks from service definition struct rather than a new copy, and other changes from code review. This also errors when json payload contains empty structs
* Simplify and improve validate method, and make sure that CheckTypes always returns a new copy of validated check definitions
* Tweaks some small style things and error messages.
* Updates the change log.
