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.
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.
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2056.
This commit provides server-local implementations of the proxycfg.ConfigEntry
and proxycfg.ConfigEntryList interfaces, that source data from streaming events.
It makes use of the LocalMaterializer type introduced for peering replication,
adding the necessary support for authorization.
It also adds support for "wildcard" subscriptions (within a topic) to the event
publisher, as this is needed to fetch service-resolvers for all services when
configuring mesh gateways.
Currently, events will be emitted for just the ingress-gateway, service-resolver,
and mesh config entry types, as these are the only entries required by proxycfg
— the events will be emitted on topics named IngressGateway, ServiceResolver,
and MeshConfig topics respectively.
Though these events will only be consumed "locally" for now, they can also be
consumed via the gRPC endpoint (confirmed using grpcurl) so using them from
client agents should be a case of swapping the LocalMaterializer for an
RPCMaterializer.
- Introduce a new telemetry configurable parameter retry_failed_connection. User can set the value to true to let consul agent continue its start process on failed connection to datadog server. When set to false, agent will stop on failed start. The default behavior is true.

Introduces the capability to configure TLS differently for Consul's
listeners/ports (i.e. HTTPS, gRPC, and the internal multiplexed RPC
port) which is useful in scenarios where you may want the HTTPS or
gRPC interfaces to present a certificate signed by a well-known/public
CA, rather than the certificate used for internal communication which
must have a SAN in the form `server.<dc>.consul`.
We have seen test flakes caused by 'concurrent map read and map write', and the race detector
reports the problem as well (prevent us from running some tests with -race).
The root of the problem is the grpc expects resolvers to be registered at init time
before any requests are made, but we were using a separate resolver for each test.
This commit introduces a resolver registry. The registry is registered as the single
resolver for the consul scheme. Each test uses the Authority section of the target
(instead of the scheme) to identify the resolver that should be used for the test.
The scheme is used for lookup, which is why it can no longer be used as the unique
key.
This allows us to use a lock around the map of resolvers, preventing the data race.
The bulk of this commit is moving the LeaderRoutineManager from the agent/consul package into its own package: lib/gort. It also got a renaming and its Start method now requires a context. Requiring that context required updating a whole bunch of other places in the code.

grpclog.SetLoggerV2 is meant to be called only once before any gRPC requests are received, but
each test that uses TestAgent will call NewBaseDeps again. Use a sync.Once to prevent the grpc
logging from being re-initialized by each test.
This will mean that a test can't use a fake logger to capture logs from the gRPC server.
This commit reduces the interface to Load() a bit, in preparation for
unexporting NewBuilder and having everything call Load.
The three arguments are reduced to a single argument by moving the other
two into the options struct.
The three return values are reduced to two by moving the RuntimeConfig
and Warnings into a LoadResult struct.

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
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.
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.
And into token.Store. This change isolates any awareness of token
persistence in a single place.
It is a small step in allowing Agent.New to accept its dependencies.
