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.
- 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 might be better handled by allowing configuration for the InMemSink interval and retail, and disabling
the global. For now this is a smaller change to remove the goroutine leak caused by tests because go-metrics
does not provide any way of shutting down the global goroutine.
Previsouly it was done in Agent.Start, which is much later then it needs to be.
The new 'dns' package was required, because otherwise there would be an
import cycle. In the future we should move more of the dns server into
the dns package.
- unexport testing shims, and document their purpose
- resolve a TODO by moving validation to NewBuilder and storing the one
field that is used instead of all of Options
- create a slice with the correct size to avoid extra allocations
AutoConfig will generate local tokens for clients and the ability to use local tokens is gated off of token replication being enabled and being configured with a replication token. Therefore we already have a hard requirement on having token replication enabled, this commit just makes sure to surface that to the operator instead of having to discern what the issue is from RPC errors.
Ensure that enabling AutoConfig sets the tls configurator properly
This also refactors the TLS configurator a bit so the naming doesn’t imply only AutoEncrypt as the source of the automatically setup TLS cert info.
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.
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
}
}
On the servers they must have a certificate.
On the clients they just have to set verify_outgoing to true to attempt TLS connections for RPCs.
Eventually we may relax these restrictions but right now all of the settings we push down (acl tokens, acl related settings, certificates, gossip key) are sensitive and shouldn’t be transmitted over an unencrypted connection. Our guides and docs should recoommend verify_server_hostname on the clients as well.
Another reason to do this is weird things happen when making an insecure RPC when TLS is not enabled. Basically it tries TLS anyways. We should probably fix that to make it clearer what is going on.
The envisioned changes would allow extra settings to enable dynamically defined auth methods to be used instead of or in addition to the statically defined one in the configuration.
All commands which read config (agent, services, and validate) will now
print warnings when one of the config files is skipped because it did
not match an expected format.
Also ensures that config validate prints all warnings.
Previously the logic for reading ConfigFiles and produces Sources was split
between NewBuilder and Build. This commit moves all of the logic into NewBuilder
so that Build() can operate entirely on Sources.
This change is in preparation for logging warnings when files have an
unsupported extension.
It also reduces the scope of BuilderOpts, and gets us very close to removing
Builder.options.
Flags is an overloaded term in this context. It generally is used to
refer to command line flags. This struct, however, is a data object
used as input to the construction.
It happens to be partially populated by command line flags, but
otherwise has very little to do with them.
Renaming this struct should make the actual responsibility of this struct
more obvious, and remove the possibility that it is confused with
command line flags.
This change is in preparation for adding additional fields to
BuilderOpts.
This field was populated for one reason, to test that it was empty.
Of all the callers, only a single one used this functionality. The rest
constructed a `Flags{}` struct which did not set Args.
I think this shows that the logic was in the wrong place. Only the agent
command needs to care about validating the args.
This commit removes the field, and moves the logic to the one caller
that cares.
Also fix some comments.
This allows the operator to disable agent caching for the http endpoint.
It is on by default for backwards compatibility and if disabled will
ignore the url parameter `cached`.
* testing: replace most goe/verify.Values with require.Equal
One difference between these two comparisons is that go/verify considers
nil slices/maps to be equal to empty slices/maps, where as testify/require
does not, and does not appear to provide any way to enable that behaviour.
Because of this difference some expected values were changed from empty
slices to nil slices, and some calls to verify.Values were left.
* Remove github.com/pascaldekloe/goe/verify
Reduce the number of assertion packages we use from 2 to 1
