Replaces the reflection-based implementation of proxycfg's
ConfigSnapshot.Clone with code generated by deep-copy.
While load testing server-based xDS (for consul-dataplane) we discovered
this method is extremely expensive. The ConfigSnapshot struct, directly
or indirectly, contains a copy of many of the structs in the agent/structs
package, which creates a large graph for copystructure.Copy to traverse
at runtime, on every proxy reconfiguration.
When peering through mesh gateways we expect outbound dials to peer
servers to flow through the local mesh gateway addresses.
Now when establishing a peering we get a list of dial addresses as a
ring buffer that includes local mesh gateway addresses if the local DC
is configured to peer through mesh gateways. The ring buffer includes
the mesh gateway addresses first, but also includes the remote server
addresses as a fallback.
This fallback is present because it's possible that direct egress from
the servers may be allowed. If not allowed then the leader will cycle
back to a mesh gateway address through the ring.
When attempting to dial the remote servers we retry up to a fixed
timeout. If using mesh gateways we also have an initial wait in
order to allow for the mesh gateways to configure themselves.
Note that if we encounter a permission denied error we do not retry
since that error indicates that the secret in the peering token is
invalid.
memdb's `WatchCh` method creates a goroutine that will publish to the
returned channel when the watchset is triggered or the given context
is canceled. Although this is called out in its godoc comment, it's
not obvious that this method creates a goroutine who's lifecycle you
need to manage.
In the xDS capacity controller, we were calling `WatchCh` on each
iteration of the control loop, meaning the number of goroutines would
grow on each autopilot event until there was catalog churn.
In the catalog config source, we were calling `WatchCh` with the
background context, meaning that the goroutine would keep running after
the sync loop had terminated.
Adds another datasource for proxycfg.HTTPChecks, for use on server agents. Typically these checks are performed by local client agents and there is no equivalent of this in agentless (where servers configure consul-dataplane proxies).
Hence, the data source is mostly a no-op on servers but in the case where the service is present within the local state, it delegates to the cache data source.
This commit adds a monotonically increasing nonce to include in peering
replication response messages. Every ack/nack from the peer handling a
response will include this nonce, allowing to correlate the ack/nack
with a specific resource.
At the moment nothing is done with the nonce when it is received. In the
future we may want to add functionality such as retries on NACKs,
depending on the class of error.

* Update grpc server metrics with server type label
* Add stats test to grpc-external
* Remove global metrics instance from grpc server tests
Preivously when alias check was removed it would not be stopped nor
cleaned up from the associated aliasChecks map.
This means that any time an alias check was deregistered we would
leak a goroutine for CheckAlias.run() because the stopCh would never
be closed.
This issue mostly affects service mesh deployments on platforms where
the client agent is mostly static but proxy services come and go
regularly, since by default sidecars are registered with an alias check.

A previous commit introduced an internally-managed server certificate
to use for peering-related purposes.
Now the peering token has been updated to match that behavior:
- The server name matches the structure of the server cert
- The CA PEMs correspond to the Connect CA
Note that if Conect is disabled, and by extension the Connect CA, we
fall back to the previous behavior of returning the manually configured
certs and local server SNI.
Several tests were updated to use the gRPC TLS port since they enable
Connect by default. This means that the peering token will embed the
Connect CA, and the dialer will expect a TLS listener.

This commit adds the xDS resources needed for INBOUND traffic from peer
clusters:
- 1 filter chain for all inbound peering requests.
- 1 cluster for all inbound peering requests.
- 1 endpoint per voting server with the gRPC TLS port configured.
There is one filter chain and cluster because unlike with WAN
federation, peer clusters will not attempt to dial individual servers.
Peer clusters will only dial the local mesh gateway addresses.
This commit adds handling so that the replication stream considers
whether the user intends to peer through mesh gateways.
The subscription will return server or mesh gateway addresses depending
on the mesh configuration setting. These watches can be updated at
runtime by modifying the mesh config entry.

Routing peering control plane traffic through mesh gateways can be
enabled or disabled at runtime with the mesh config entry.
This commit updates proxycfg to add or cancel watches for local servers
depending on this central config.
Note that WAN federation over mesh gateways is determined by a service
metadata flag, and any updates to the gateway service registration will
force the creation of a new snapshot. If enabled, WAN-fed over mesh
gateways will trigger a local server watch on initialize().
Because of this we will only add/remove server watches if WAN federation
over mesh gateways is disabled.
Preivously the TLS configurator would default to presenting auto TLS
certificates as client certificates.
Server agents should not have this behavior and should instead present
the manually configured certs. The autoTLS certs for servers are
exclusively used for peering and should not be used as the default for
outbound communication.
This commit introduces a new ACL token used for internal server
management purposes.
It has a few key properties:
- It has unlimited permissions.
- It is persisted through Raft as System Metadata rather than in the
ACL tokens table. This is to avoid users seeing or modifying it.
- It is re-generated on leadership establishment.

Prior to #13244, connect proxies and gateways could only be configured by an
xDS session served by the local client agent.
In an upcoming release, it will be possible to deploy a Consul service mesh
without client agents. In this model, xDS sessions will be handled by the
servers themselves, which necessitates load-balancing to prevent a single
server from receiving a disproportionate amount of load and becoming
overwhelmed.
This introduces a simple form of load-balancing where Consul will attempt to
achieve an even spread of load (xDS sessions) between all healthy servers.
It does so by implementing a concurrent session limiter (limiter.SessionLimiter)
and adjusting the limit according to autopilot state and proxy service
registrations in the catalog.
If a server is already over capacity (i.e. the session limit is lowered),
Consul will begin draining sessions to rebalance the load. This will result
in the client receiving a `RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED` status code. It is the client's
responsibility to observe this response and reconnect to a different server.
Users of the gRPC client connection brokered by the
consul-server-connection-manager library will get this for free.
The rate at which Consul will drain sessions to rebalance load is scaled
dynamically based on the number of proxies in the catalog.
http.Transport keeps a pool of connections and should be reused when possible. We instantiate a new http.DefaultTransport for every metrics request, making large numbers of concurrent requests inefficiently spin up new connections instead of reusing open ones.

By adding a SpiffeID for server agents, servers can now request a leaf
certificate from the Connect CA.
This new Spiffe ID has a key property: servers are identified by their
datacenter name and trust domain. All servers that share these
attributes will share a ServerURI.
The aim is to use these certificates to verify the server name of ANY
server in a Consul datacenter.
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2489.
This PR introduces a server-local implementation of the
proxycfg.InternalServiceDump interface that sources data from a blocking query
against the server's state store.
For simplicity, it only implements the subset of the Internal.ServiceDump RPC
handler actually used by proxycfg - as such the result type has been changed
to IndexedCheckServiceNodes to avoid confusion.
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2460.
Introduces a server-local implementation of the proxycfg.ResolvedServiceConfig
interface that sources data from a blocking query against the server's state
store.
It moves the service config resolution logic into the agent/configentry package
so that it can be used in both the RPC handler and data source.
I've also done a little re-arranging and adding comments to call out data
sources for which there is to be no server-local equivalent.
When a sidecar proxy is registered, a check is automatically added.
Previously, the address this check used was the underlying service's
address instead of the proxy's address, even though the check is testing
if the proxy is up.
This worked in most cases because the proxy ran on the same IP as the
underlying service but it's not guaranteed and so the proper default
address should be the proxy's address.

To ease the transition for users, the original gRPC
port can still operate in a deprecated mode as either
plain-text or TLS mode. This behavior should be removed
in a future release whenever we no longer support this.
The resulting behavior from this commit is:
`ports.grpc > 0 && ports.grpc_tls > 0` spawns both plain-text and tls ports.
`ports.grpc > 0 && grpc.tls == undefined` spawns a single plain-text port.
`ports.grpc > 0 && grpc.tls != undefined` spawns a single tls port (backwards compat mode).
Peerings are terminated when a peer decides to delete the peering from
their end. Deleting a peering sends a termination message to the peer
and triggers them to mark the peering as terminated but does NOT delete
the peering itself. This is to prevent peerings from disappearing from
both sides just because one side deleted them.
Previously the Delete endpoint was skipping the deletion if the peering
was not marked as active. However, terminated peerings are also
inactive.
This PR makes some updates so that peerings marked as terminated can be
deleted by users.
We need to watch for changes to peerings and update the server addresses which get served by the ring buffer.
Also, if there is an active connection for a peer, we are getting up-to-date server addresses from the replication stream and can safely ignore the token's addresses which may be stale.
Contains 2 changes to the GetEnvoyBootstrapParams response to support
consul-dataplane.
Exposing node_name and node_id:
consul-dataplane will support providing either the node_id or node_name in its
configuration. Unfortunately, supporting both in the xDS meta adds a fair amount
of complexity (partly because most tables are currently indexed on node_name)
so for now we're going to return them both from the bootstrap params endpoint,
allowing consul-dataplane to exchange a node_id for a node_name (which it will
supply in the xDS meta).
Properly setting service for gateways:
To avoid the need to special case gateways in consul-dataplane, service will now
either be the destination service name for connect proxies, or the gateway
service name. This means it can be used as-is in Envoy configuration (i.e. as a
cluster name or in metric tags).
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2339.
It improves our handling of "irrecoverable" errors in proxycfg data sources.
The canonical example of this is what happens when the ACL token presented by
Envoy is deleted/revoked. Previously, the stream would get "stuck" until the
xDS server re-checked the token (after 5 minutes) and terminated the stream.
Materializers would also sit burning resources retrying something that could
never succeed.
Now, it is possible for data sources to mark errors as "terminal" which causes
the xDS stream to be closed immediately. Similarly, the submatview.Store will
evict materializers when it observes they have encountered such an error.
newMockSnapshotHandler has an assertion on t.Cleanup which gets called before the event publisher is cancelled. This commit reorders the context.WithCancel so it properly gets cancelled before the assertion is made.
Consul 1.13.0 changed ServiceVirtualIP to use PeeredServiceName instead of ServiceName which was a breaking change for those using service mesh and wanted to restore their snapshot after upgrading to 1.13.0.
This commit handles existing data with older ServiceName and converts it during restore so that there are no issues when restoring from older snapshots.
1. Create a bexpr filter for performing the filtering
2. Change the state store functions to return the raw (not aggregated)
list of ServiceNodes.
3. Move the aggregate service tags by name logic out of the state store
functions into a new function called from the RPC endpoint
4. Perform the filtering in the endpoint before aggregation.
If startListeners successfully created listeners for some of its input addresses but eventually failed, the function would return an error and existing listeners would not be cleaned up.
Previously establishment and pending secrets were only checked at the
RPC layer. However, given that these are Check-and-Set transactions we
should ensure that the given secrets are still valid when persisting a
secret exchange or promotion.
Otherwise it would be possible for concurrent requests to overwrite each
other.
Previously there was a field indicating the operation that triggered a
secrets write. Now there is a message for each operation and it contains
the secret ID being persisted.
Previously the updates to the peering secrets UUID table relied on
inferring what action triggered the update based on a reconciliation
against the existing secrets.
Instead we now explicitly require the operation to be given so that the
inference isn't necessary. This makes the UUID table logic easier to
reason about and fixes some related bugs.
There is also an update so that the peering secrets get handled on
snapshots/restores.
Dialers do not keep track of peering secret UUIDs, so they should not
attempt to clean up data from that table when their peering is deleted.
We also now keep peer server addresses when marking peerings for
deletion. Peer server addresses are used by the ShouldDial() helper
when determining whether the peering is for a dialer or an acceptor.
We need to keep this data so that peering secrets can be cleaned up
accordingly.
Fixes a bug where a service getting deleted from the catalog would cause
the ConfigSource to spin in a hot loop attempting to look up the service.
This is because we were returning a nil WatchSet which would always
unblock the select.
Kudos to @freddygv for discovering this!
* Avoid logging StreamSecretID
* Wrap additional errors in stream handler

When we receive a FailedPrecondition error, retry that more quickly
because we expect it will resolve shortly. This is particularly
important in the context of Consul servers behind a load balancer
because when establishing a connection we have to retry until we
randomly land on a leader node.
The default retry backoff goes from 2s, 4s, 8s, etc. which can result in
very long delays quite quickly. Instead, this backoff retries in 8ms
five times, then goes exponentially from there: 16ms, 32ms, ... up to a
max of 8152ms.
There were 16 combinations of tests but 4 of them were duplicates since the default key type and bits were "ec" and 256. That entry was commented out to reduce the subtest count to 12.
testrpc.WaitForLeader was failing on arm64 environments; the cause is unknown but it might be due to the environment being flooded with parallel tests making RPC calls. The RPC polling+retry was replaced with a simpler check for leadership based on raft.
- when register service using catalog endpoint, the key of service
name actually should be "service". Add this information to the
error message will help user to quickly fix in the request.
Now that peered upstreams can generate envoy resources (#13758), we need a way to disambiguate local from peered resources in our metrics. The key difference is that datacenter and partition will be replaced with peer, since in the context of peered resources partition is ambiguous (could refer to the partition in a remote cluster or one that exists locally). The partition and datacenter of the proxy will always be that of the source service.
Regexes were updated to make emitting datacenter and partition labels mutually exclusive with peer labels.
Listener filter names were updated to better match the existing regex.
Cluster names assigned to peered upstreams were updated to be synthesized from local peer name (it previously used the externally provided primary SNI, which contained the peer name from the other side of the peering). Integration tests were updated to assert for the new peer labels.
This commit adds a new ACL rule named "peering" to authorize
actions taken against peering-related endpoints.
The "peering" rule has several key properties:
- It is scoped to a partition, and MUST be defined in the default
namespace.
- Its access level must be "read', "write", or "deny".
- Granting an access level will apply to all peerings. This ACL rule
cannot be used to selective grant access to some peerings but not
others.
- If the peering rule is not specified, we fall back to the "operator"
rule and then the default ACL rule.
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2377.
Adds a server-local implementation of the proxycfg.ExportedPeeredServices
interface that sources data from a blocking query against the server's
state store.
Update generate token endpoint (rpc, http, and api module)
If ServerExternalAddresses are set, it will override any addresses gotten from the "consul" service, and be used in the token instead, and dialed by the dialer. This allows for setting up a load balancer for example, in front of the consul servers.
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2352.
It adds a server-local implementation of the proxycfg.PeeredUpstreams interface
based on a blocking query against the server's state store.
It also fixes an omission in the Virtual IP freeing logic where we were never
updating the max index (and therefore blocking queries against
VirtualIPsForAllImportedServices would not return on service deletion).
Peered upstreams has a separate loop in xds from discovery chain upstreams. This PR adds similar but slightly modified code to add filters for peered upstream listeners, clusters, and endpoints in the case of transparent proxy.
The client is set to send keepalive pings every 30s. The server
keepalive enforcement must be set to a number less than that,
otherwise it will disconnect clients for sending pings too often.
MinTime governs the minimum amount of time between pings.
This mimics xDS's discovery protocol where you must request a resource
explicitly for the exporting side to send those events to you.
As part of this I aligned the overall ResourceURL with the TypeURL that
gets embedded into the encoded protobuf Any construct. The
CheckServiceNodes is now wrapped in a better named "ExportedService"
struct now.
* peerstream: dialer should reconnect when stream closes
If the stream is closed unexpectedly (i.e. when we haven't received
a terminated message), the dialer should attempt to re-establish the
stream.
Previously, the `HandleStream` would return `nil` when the stream
was closed. The caller then assumed the stream was terminated on purpose
and so didn't reconnect when instead it was stopped unexpectedly and
the dialer should have attempted to reconnect.
Ensure that the peer stream replication rpc can successfully be used with TLS activated.
Also:
- If key material is configured for the gRPC port but HTTPS is not
enabled now TLS will still be activated for the gRPC port.
- peerstream replication stream opened by the establishing-side will now
ignore grpc.WithBlock so that TLS errors will bubble up instead of
being awkwardly delayed or suppressed
A Node ID is not a required field with Consul’s data model. Therefore we cannot reliably expect all uses to have it. However the node name is required and must be unique so its equally as good of a key for the internal healthSnapshot node tracking.
Prior to this the dialing side of the peering would only ever work within the default partition. This commit allows properly parsing the partition field out of the API struct request body, query param and header.

Previously, public referred to gRPC services that are both exposed on
the dedicated gRPC port and have their definitions in the proto-public
directory (so were considered usable by 3rd parties). Whereas private
referred to services on the multiplexed server port that are only usable
by agents and other servers.
Now, we're splitting these definitions, such that external/internal
refers to the port and public/private refers to whether they can be used
by 3rd parties.
This is necessary because the peering replication API needs to be
exposed on the dedicated port, but is not (yet) suitable for use by 3rd
parties.
- Use some protobuf construction helper methods for brevity.
- Rename a local variable to avoid later shadowing.
- Rename the Nonce field to be more like xDS's naming.
- Be more explicit about which PeerID fields are empty.
If someone were to switch a peer-exported service from L4 to L7 there
would be a brief SAN validation hiccup as traffic shifted to the mesh
gateway for termination.
This PR sends the mesh gateway SpiffeID down all the time so the clients
always expect a switch.
For L4/tcp exported services the mesh gateways will not be terminating
TLS. A caller in one peer will be directly establishing TLS connections
to the ultimate exported service in the other peer.
The caller will be doing SAN validation using the replicated SpiffeID
values shipped from the exporting side. There are a class of discovery
chain edits that could be done on the exporting side that would cause
the introduction of a new SpiffeID value. In between the time of the
config entry update on the exporting side and the importing side getting
updated peer stream data requests to the exported service would fail due
to SAN validation errors.
This is unacceptable so instead prohibit the exporting peer from making
changes that would break peering in this way.
Because peerings are pairwise, between two tuples of (datacenter,
partition) having any exported reference via a discovery chain that
crosses out of the peered datacenter or partition will ultimately not be
able to work for various reasons. The biggest one is that there is no
way in the ultimate destination to configure an intention that can allow
an external SpiffeID to access a service.
This PR ensures that a user simply cannot do this, so they won't run
into weird situations like this.
Peer replication is intended to be between separate Consul installs and
effectively should be considered "external". This PR moves the peer
stream replication bidirectional RPC endpoint to the external gRPC
server and ensures that things continue to function.
Currently servers exchange information about their WAN serf port
and RPC port with serf tags, so that they all learn of each other's
addressing information. We intend to make larger use of the new
public-facing gRPC port exposed on all of the servers, so this PR
addresses that by passing around the gRPC port via serf tags and
then ensuring the generated consul service in the catalog has
metadata about that new port as well for ease of non-serf-based lookup.
This commit updates the DNS query locality parsing so that the virtual
IP for an imported service can be queried.
Note that:
- Support for parsing a peer in other service discovery queries was not
added.
- Querying another datacenter for a virtual IP is not supported. This
was technically allowed in 1.11 but is being rolled back for 1.13
because it is not a use-case we intended to support. Virtual IPs in
different datacenters are going to collide because they are allocated
sequentially.
These changes are primarily for Consul's UI, where we want to be more
specific about the state a peering is in.
- The "initial" state was renamed to pending, and no longer applies to
peerings being established from a peering token.
- Upon request to establish a peering from a peering token, peerings
will be set as "establishing". This will help distinguish between the
two roles: the cluster that generates the peering token and the
cluster that establishes the peering.
- When marked for deletion, peering state will be set to "deleting".
This way the UI determines the deletion via the state rather than the
"DeletedAt" field.
