Previously, if a blocking query called CheckConnectServiceNodes
before the gateway-services memdb table had any entries,
a nil watchCh would be returned when calling serviceTerminatingGatewayNodes.
This means that the blocking query would not fire if a gateway config entry
was added after the watch started.
In cases where the blocking query started on proxy registration,
the proxy could potentially never become aware of an upstream endpoint
if that upstream was going to be represented by a gateway.
On every service registration, we check to see if a service should be
assassociated to a wildcard gateway-service. This fixes an issue where
we did not correctly check to see if the service being registered was a
"typical" service or not.
* Implements a simple, tcp ingress gateway workflow
This adds a new type of gateway for allowing Ingress traffic into Connect from external services.

Restore a few more service-kind index updates so blocking in ServiceDump works in more cases
Namely one omission was that check updates for dumped services were not
unblocking.
Also adds a ServiceDump state store test and also fix a watch bug with the
normal dump.
Follow-on from #6916
* Make Connect health queryies unblock correctly in all cases and use optimal number of watch chans. Fixes#5506.
* Node check test cases and clearer bug test doc
* Comment update
Refs #4984.
Watching chans for every node we touch in a health query is wasteful. In #4984 it shows that if there are more than 682 service instances we always fallback to watching all services which kills performance.
We already have a record in MemDB that is reliably update whenever the service health result should change thanks to per-service watch indexes.
So in general, provided there is at least one service instances and we actually have a service index for it (we always do now) we only ever need to watch a single channel.
This saves us from ever falling back to the general index and causing the performance cliff in #4984, but it also means fewer goroutines and work done for every blocking health query.
It also saves some allocations made during the query because we no longer have to populate a WatchSet with 3 chans per service instance which saves the internal map allocation.
This passes all state store tests except the one that explicitly checked for the fallback behaviour we've now optimized away and in general seems safe.
Node updates were not updating the service indexes, which are used for
service related queries. This caused the X-Consul-Index to stay the same
after a node update as seen from a service query even though the node
data is returned in heath queries. If that happened in between queries
the client would miss this change.
We now update the indexes of the services on the node when it is
updated.
Fixes: #5450
## Background
When making a blocking query on a missing service (was never registered, or is not registered anymore) the query returns as soon as any service is updated.
On clusters with frequent updates (5~10 updates/s in our DCs) these queries virtually do not block, and clients with no protections againt this waste ressources on the agent and server side. Clients that do protect against this get updates later than they should because of the backoff time they implement between requests.
## Implementation
While reducing the number of unnecessary updates we still want :
* Clients to be notified as soon as when the last instance of a service disapears.
* Clients to be notified whenever there's there is an update for the service.
* Clients to be notified as soon as the first instance of the requested service is added.
To reduce the number of unnecessary updates we need to block when a request to a missing service is made. However in the following case :
1. Client `client1` makes a query for service `foo`, gets back a node and X-Consul-Index 42
2. `foo` is unregistered
3. `client1` makes a query for `foo` with `index=42` -> `foo` does not exist, the query blocks and `client1` is not notified of the change on `foo`
We could store the last raft index when each service was last alive to know wether we should block on the incoming query or not, but that list could grow indefinetly.
We instead store the last raft index when a service was unregistered and use it when a query targets a service that does not exist.
When a service `srv` is unregistered this "missing service index" is always greater than any X-Consul-Index held by the clients while `srv` was up, allowing us to immediatly notify them.
1. Client `client1` makes a query for service `foo`, gets back a node and `X-Consul-Index: 42`
2. `foo` is unregistered, we set the "missing service index" to 43
3. `client1` makes a blocking query for `foo` with `index=42` -> `foo` does not exist, we check against the "missing service index" and return immediatly with `X-Consul-Index: 43`
4. `client1` makes a blocking query for `foo` with `index=43` -> we block
5. Other changes happen in the cluster, but foo still doesn't exist and "missing service index" hasn't changed, the query is still blocked
6. `foo` is registered again on index 62 -> `foo` exists and its index is greater than 43, we unblock the query
* Support multiple tags for health and catalog api endpoints
Fixes#1781.
Adds a `ServiceTags` field to the ServiceSpecificRequest to support
multiple tags, updates the filter logic in the catalog store, and
propagates these change through to the health and catalog endpoints.
Note: Leaves `ServiceTag` in the struct, since it is being used as
part of the DNS lookup, which in turn uses the health check.
* Update the api package to support multiple tags
Includes additional tests.
* Update new tests to use the `require` library
* Update HealthConnect check after a bad merge
* [Performance On Large clusters] Checks do update services/nodes only when really modified to avoid too many updates on very large clusters
In a large cluster, when having a few thousands of nodes, the anti-entropy
mechanism performs lots of changes (several per seconds) while
there is no real change. This patch wants to improve this in order
to increase Consul scalability when using many blocking requests on
health for instance.
* [Performance for large clusters] Only updates index of service if service is really modified
* [Performance for large clusters] Only updates index of nodes if node is really modified
* Added comments / ensure IsSame() has clear semantics
* Avoid having modified boolean, return nil directly if stutures are Same
* Fixed unstable unit tests TestLeader_ChangeServerID
* Rewrite TestNode_IsSame() for better readability as suggested by @banks
* Rename ServiceNode.IsSame() into IsSameService() + added unit tests
* Do not duplicate TestStructs_ServiceNode_Conversions() and increase test coverage of IsSameService
* Clearer documentation in IsSameService
* Take into account ServiceProxy into ServiceNode.IsSameService()
* Fixed IsSameService() with all new structures
* Refactor Service Definition ProxyDestination.

≈
* Fixes from docs
- omit some empty undocumented fields in API
- Bring back ServiceProxyDestination in Catalog responses to not break backwards compat - this was removed assuming it was only used internally.
* Documentation updates for Upstreams in service definition
* Fixes for tests broken by many refactors.
* Enable travis on f-connect branch in this branch too.
* Add consistent Deprecation comments to ProxyDestination uses
* Update version number on deprecation notices, and correct upstream datacenter field with explanation in docs
* Implementation of Weights Data structures
Adding this datastructure will allow us to resolve the
issues #1088 and #4198
This new structure defaults to values:
```
{ Passing: 1, Warning: 0 }
```
Which means, use weight of 0 for a Service in Warning State
while use Weight 1 for a Healthy Service.
Thus it remains compatible with previous Consul versions.
* Implemented weights for DNS SRV Records
* DNS properly support agents with weight support while server does not (backwards compatibility)
* Use Warning value of Weights of 1 by default
When using DNS interface with only_passing = false, all nodes
with non-Critical healthcheck used to have a weight value of 1.
While having weight.Warning = 0 as default value, this is probably
a bad idea as it breaks ascending compatibility.
Thus, we put a default value of 1 to be consistent with existing behaviour.
* Added documentation for new weight field in service description
* Better documentation about weights as suggested by @banks
* Return weight = 1 for unknown Check states as suggested by @banks
* Fixed typo (of -> or) in error message as requested by @mkeeler
* Fixed unstable unit test TestRetryJoin

* Fixed wrong Fatalf format in `testrpc/wait.go`
* Added notes regarding DNS SRV lookup limitations regarding number of instances
* Documentation fixes and clarification regarding SRV records with weights as requested by @banks
* Rephrase docs
* Allow to rename nodes with IDs, will fix#3974 and #4413
This change allow to rename any well behaving recent agent with an
ID to be renamed safely, ie: without taking the name of another one
with case insensitive comparison.
Deprecated behaviour warning
----------------------------
Due to asceding compatibility, it is still possible however to
"take" the name of another name by not providing any ID.
Note that when not providing any ID, it is possible to have 2 nodes
having similar names with case differences, ie: myNode and mynode
which might lead to DB corruption on Consul server side and
lead to server not properly restarting.
See #3983 and #4399 for Context about this change.
Disabling registration of nodes without IDs as specified in #4414
should probably be the way to go eventually.
* Removed the case-insensitive search when adding a node within the else
block since it breaks the test TestAgentAntiEntropy_Services
While the else case is probably legit, it will be fixed with #4414 in
a later release.
* Added again the test in the else to avoid duplicated names, but
enforce this test only for nodes having IDs.
Thus most tests without any ID will work, and allows us fixing
* Added more tests regarding request with/without IDs.
`TestStateStore_EnsureNode` now test registration and renaming with IDs
`TestStateStore_EnsureNodeDeprecated` tests registration without IDs
and tests removing an ID from a node as well as updated a node
without its ID (deprecated behaviour kept for backwards compatibility)
* Do not allow renaming in case of conflict, including when other node has no ID
* Fixed function GetNodeID that was not working due to wrong type when searching node from its ID
Thus, all tests about renaming were not working properly.
Added the full test cas that allowed me to detect it.
* Better error messages, more tests when nodeID is not a valid UUID in GetNodeID()
* Added separate TestStateStore_GetNodeID to test GetNodeID.
More complete test coverage for GetNodeID
* Added new unit test `TestStateStore_ensureNoNodeWithSimilarNameTxn`
Also fixed comments to be clearer after remarks from @banks
* Fixed error message in unit test to match test case
* Use uuid.ParseUUID to parse Node.ID as requested by @mkeeler
Since DNS is case insensitive and DB as issues when similar names with different
cases are added, check for unicity based on case insensitivity.
Following another big incident we had in our cluster, we also validate
that adding/renaming a not does not conflicts with case insensitive
matches.
We had the following error once:
- one node called: mymachine.MYDC.mydomain was shut off
- another node (different ID) was added with name: mymachine.mydc.mydomain before
72 hours
When restarting the consul server of domain, the consul server restarted failed
to start since it detected an issue in RAFT database because
mymachine.MYDC.mydomain and mymachine.mydc.mydomain had the same names.
Checking at registration time with case insensitivity should definitly fix
those issues and avoid Consul DB corruption.
Bugfix for https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/pull/3899
When a node level check is removed (example: maintenance),
some watchers on services might have to recompute their state.
If those nodes are performing blocking queries, they have to be notified.
While their state was updated when node-level state did change or was added
this was not the case when the check was removed. This fixes it.
This patch improves the watches for services on large cluster:
each service has now its own index, such watches on a specific service
are not modified by changes in the global catalog.
It should improve a lot the performance of tools such as consul-template
or libraries performing watches on very large clusters with many
services/watches.
