Replaces #7559
Running tests in parallel, with background goroutines, results in test output not being associated with the correct test. `go test` does not make any guarantees about output from goroutines being attributed to the correct test case.
Attaching log output from background goroutines also cause data races. If the goroutine outlives the test, it will race with the test being marked done. Previously this was noticed as a panic when logging, but with the race detector enabled it is shown as a data race.
The previous solution did not address the problem of correct test attribution because test output could still be hidden when it was associated with a test that did not fail. You would have to look at all of the log output to find the relevant lines. It also made debugging test failures more difficult because each log line was very long.
This commit attempts a new approach. Instead of printing all the logs, only print when a test fails. This should work well when there are a small number of failures, but may not work well when there are many test failures at the same time. In those cases the failures are unlikely a result of a specific test, and the log output is likely less useful.
All of the logs are printed from the test goroutine, so they should be associated with the correct test.
Also removes some test helpers that were not used, or only had a single caller. Packages which expose many functions with similar names can be difficult to use correctly.

The version field has been used to decide which multiplexing to use. It
was introduced in 2457293dceec95ecd12ef4f01442e13710ea131a. But this is
6y ago and there is no need for this differentiation anymore.
Three of the checks are temporarily disabled to limit the size of the
diff, and allow us to enable all the other checks in CI.
In a follow up we can fix the issues reported by the other checks one
at a time, and enable them.
Based on work done in https://github.com/hashicorp/memberlist/pull/196
this allows to restrict the IP ranges that can join a given Serf cluster
and be a member of the cluster.
Restrictions on IPs can be done separatly using 2 new differents flags
and config options to restrict IPs for LAN and WAN Serf.
This is like a Möbius strip of code due to the fact that low-level components (serf/memberlist) are connected to high-level components (the catalog and mesh-gateways) in a twisty maze of references which make it hard to dive into. With that in mind here's a high level summary of what you'll find in the patch:
There are several distinct chunks of code that are affected:
* new flags and config options for the server
* retry join WAN is slightly different
* retry join code is shared to discover primary mesh gateways from secondary datacenters
* because retry join logic runs in the *agent* and the results of that
operation for primary mesh gateways are needed in the *server* there are
some methods like `RefreshPrimaryGatewayFallbackAddresses` that must occur
at multiple layers of abstraction just to pass the data down to the right
layer.
* new cache type `FederationStateListMeshGatewaysName` for use in `proxycfg/xds` layers
* the function signature for RPC dialing picked up a new required field (the
node name of the destination)
* several new RPCs for manipulating a FederationState object:
`FederationState:{Apply,Get,List,ListMeshGateways}`
* 3 read-only internal APIs for debugging use to invoke those RPCs from curl
* raft and fsm changes to persist these FederationStates
* replication for FederationStates as they are canonically stored in the
Primary and replicated to the Secondaries.
* a special derivative of anti-entropy that runs in secondaries to snapshot
their local mesh gateway `CheckServiceNodes` and sync them into their upstream
FederationState in the primary (this works in conjunction with the
replication to distribute addresses for all mesh gateways in all DCs to all
other DCs)
* a "gateway locator" convenience object to make use of this data to choose
the addresses of gateways to use for any given RPC or gossip operation to a
remote DC. This gets data from the "retry join" logic in the agent and also
directly calls into the FSM.
* RPC (`:8300`) on the server sniffs the first byte of a new connection to
determine if it's actually doing native TLS. If so it checks the ALPN header
for protocol determination (just like how the existing system uses the
type-byte marker).
* 2 new kinds of protocols are exclusively decoded via this native TLS
mechanism: one for ferrying "packet" operations (udp-like) from the gossip
layer and one for "stream" operations (tcp-like). The packet operations
re-use sockets (using length-prefixing) to cut down on TLS re-negotiation
overhead.
* the server instances specially wrap the `memberlist.NetTransport` when running
with gateway federation enabled (in a `wanfed.Transport`). The general gist is
that if it tries to dial a node in the SAME datacenter (deduced by looking
at the suffix of the node name) there is no change. If dialing a DIFFERENT
datacenter it is wrapped up in a TLS+ALPN blob and sent through some mesh
gateways to eventually end up in a server's :8300 port.
* a new flag when launching a mesh gateway via `consul connect envoy` to
indicate that the servers are to be exposed. This sets a special service
meta when registering the gateway into the catalog.
* `proxycfg/xds` notice this metadata blob to activate additional watches for
the FederationState objects as well as the location of all of the consul
servers in that datacenter.
* `xds:` if the extra metadata is in place additional clusters are defined in a
DC to bulk sink all traffic to another DC's gateways. For the current
datacenter we listen on a wildcard name (`server.<dc>.consul`) that load
balances all servers as well as one mini-cluster per node
(`<node>.server.<dc>.consul`)
* the `consul tls cert create` command got a new flag (`-node`) to help create
an additional SAN in certs that can be used with this flavor of federation.
This should cut down on test flakiness.
Problems handled:
- If you had enough parallel test cases running, the former circular
approach to handling the port block could hand out the same port to
multiple cases before they each had a chance to bind them, leading to
one of the two tests to fail.
- The freeport library would allocate out of the ephemeral port range.
This has been corrected for Linux (which should cover CI).
- The library now waits until a formerly-in-use port is verified to be
free before putting it back into circulation.
* First conversion
* Use serf 0.8.2 tag and associated updated deps
* * Move freeport and testutil into internal/
* Make internal/ its own module
* Update imports
* Add replace statements so API and normal Consul code are
self-referencing for ease of development
* Adapt to newer goe/values
* Bump to new cleanhttp
* Fix ban nonprintable chars test
* Update lock bad args test
The error message when the duration cannot be parsed changed in Go 1.12
(ae0c435877d3aacb9af5e706c40f9dddde5d3e67). This updates that test.
* Update another test as well
* Bump travis
* Bump circleci
* Bump go-discover and godo to get rid of launchpad dep
* Bump dockerfile go version
* fix tar command
* Bump go-cleanhttp
In TestServer_LANReap autopilot is running, so the alternate flow
through the serf reaping function is possible. In that situation the
ReconnectTimeout is not relevant so for parity also override the
TombstoneTimeout value as well.
For additional parity update the TestServer_WANReap and
TestClient_LANReap versions of this test in the same way even though
autopilot is irrelevant here .
* Adds client-side retry for no leader errors.
This paves over the case where the client was connected to the leader
when it loses leadership.
* Adds a configurable server RPC drain time and a fail-fast path for RPCs.
When a server leaves it gets removed from the Raft configuration, so it will
never know who the new leader server ends up being. Without this we'd be
doomed to wait out the RPC hold timeout and then fail. This makes things fail
a little quicker while a sever is draining, and since we added a client retry
AND since the server doing this has already shut down and left the Serf LAN,
clients should retry against some other server.
* Makes the RPC hold timeout configurable.
* Reorders struct members.
* Sets the RPC hold timeout default for test servers.
* Bumps the leave drain time up to 5 seconds.
* Robustifies retries with a simpler client-side RPC hold.
* Reverts untended delete.
* Added rate limiting for agent RPC calls.
* Initializes the rate limiter based on the config.
* Adds the rate limiter into the snapshot RPC path.
* Adds unit tests for the RPC rate limiter.
* Groups the RPC limit parameters under "limits" in the config.
* Adds some documentation about the RPC limiter.
* Sends a 429 response when the rate limiter kicks in.
* Adds docs for new telemetry.
* Makes snapshot telemetry look like RPC telemetry and cleans up comments.
