This PR implements Nomad built-in support for running Consul Connect
terminating gateways. Such a gateway can be used by services running
inside the service mesh to access "legacy" services running outside
the service mesh while still making use of Consul's service identity
based networking and ACL policies.
https://www.consul.io/docs/connect/gateways/terminating-gateway
These gateways are declared as part of a task group level service
definition within the connect stanza.
service {
connect {
gateway {
proxy {
// envoy proxy configuration
}
terminating {
// terminating-gateway configuration entry
}
}
}
}
Currently Envoy is the only supported gateway implementation in
Consul. The gateay task can be customized by configuring the
connect.sidecar_task block.
When the gateway.terminating field is set, Nomad will write/update
the Configuration Entry into Consul on job submission. Because CEs
are global in scope and there may be more than one Nomad cluster
communicating with Consul, there is an assumption that any terminating
gateway defined in Nomad for a particular service will be the same
among Nomad clusters.
Gateways require Consul 1.8.0+, checked by a node constraint.
Closes#9445
Connect ingress gateway services were being registered into Consul without
an explicit deterministic service ID. Consul would generate one automatically,
but then Nomad would have no way to register a second gateway on the same agent
as it would not supply 'proxy-id' during envoy bootstrap.
Set the ServiceID for gateways, and supply 'proxy-id' when doing envoy bootstrap.

* Throw away result of multierror.Append
When given a *multierror.Error, it is mutated, therefore the return
value is not needed.
* Simplify MergeMultierrorWarnings, use StringBuilder
* Hash.Write() never returns an error
* Remove error that was always nil
* Remove error from Resources.Add signature
When this was originally written it could return an error, but that was
refactored away, and callers of it as of today never handle the error.

This PR deflakes TestTaskRunner_StatsHook_Periodic tests and adds backoff when the driver closes the channel.
TestTaskRunner_StatsHook_Periodic is currently the most flaky test - failing ~4% of the time (20 out of 486 workflows). A sample failure: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/hashicorp/nomad/14028/workflows/957b674f-cbcc-4228-96d9-1094fdee5b9c/jobs/128563 .
This change has two components:
First, it updates the StatsHook so that it backs off when stats channel is closed. In the context of the test where the mock driver emits a single stats update and closes the channel, the test may make tens of thousands update during the period. In real context, if a driver doesn't implement the stats handler properly or when a task finishes, we may generate way too many Stats queries in a tight loop. Here, the backoff reduces these queries. I've added a failing test that shows 154,458 stats updates within 500ms in https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/hashicorp/nomad/14092/workflows/50672445-392d-4661-b19e-e3561ed32746/jobs/129423 .
Second, the test ignores the first stats update after a task exit. Due to the asynchronicity of updates and channel/context use, it's possible that an update is enqueued while the test marks the task as exited, resulting into a spurious update.
Previously, Nomad would optimize out the services task runner
hook for tasks which were initially submitted with no services
defined. This causes a problem when the job is later updated to
include service(s) on that task, which will result in nothing
happening because the hook is not present to handle the service
registration in the .Update.
Instead, always enable the services hook. The group services
alloc runner hook is already always enabled.
Fixes#9707
When a task is restored after a client restart, the template runner will
create a new lease for any dynamic secret (ex. Consul or PKI secrets
engines). But because this lease is being created in the prestart hook, we
don't trigger the `change_mode`.
This changeset uses the the existence of the task handle to detect a
previously running task that's been restored, so that we can trigger the
template `change_mode` if the template is changed, as it will be only with
dynamic secrets.
Nomad v1.0.0 introduced a regression where the client configurations
for `connect.sidecar_image` and `connect.gateway_image` would be
ignored despite being set. This PR restores that functionality.
There was a missing layer of interpolation that needs to occur for
these parameters. Since Nomad 1.0 now supports dynamic envoy versioning
through the ${NOMAD_envoy_version} psuedo variable, we basically need
to first interpolate
${connect.sidecar_image} => envoyproxy/envoy:v${NOMAD_envoy_version}
then use Consul at runtime to resolve to a real image, e.g.
envoyproxy/envoy:v${NOMAD_envoy_version} => envoyproxy/envoy:v1.16.0
Of course, if the version of Consul is too old to provide an envoy
version preference, we then need to know to fallback to the old
version of envoy that we used before.
envoyproxy/envoy:v${NOMAD_envoy_version} => envoyproxy/envoy:v1.11.2@sha256:a7769160c9c1a55bb8d07a3b71ce5d64f72b1f665f10d81aa1581bc3cf850d09
Beyond that, we also need to continue to support jobs that set the
sidecar task themselves, e.g.
sidecar_task { config { image: "custom/envoy" } }
which itself could include teh pseudo envoy version variable.
While Nomad v0.12.8 fixed `NOMAD_{ALLOC,TASK,SECRETS}_DIR` use in
`template.destination`, interpolating these variables in
`template.source` caused a path escape error.
**Why not apply the destination fix to source?**
The destination fix forces destination to always be relative to the task
directory. This makes sense for the destination as a destination outside
the task directory would be unreachable by the task. There's no reason
to ever render a template outside the task directory. (Using `..` does
allow destinations to escape the task directory if
`template.disable_file_sandbox = true`. That's just awkward and unsafe
enough I hope no one uses it.)
There is a reason to source a template outside a task
directory. At least if there weren't then I can't think of why we
implemented `template.disable_file_sandbox`. So v0.12.8 left the
behavior of `template.source` the more straightforward "Interpolate and
validate."
However, since outside of `raw_exec` every other driver uses absolute
paths for `NOMAD_*_DIR` interpolation, this means those variables are
unusable unless `disable_file_sandbox` is set.
**The Fix**
The variables are now interpolated as relative paths *only for the
purpose of rendering templates.* This is an unfortunate special case,
but reflects the fact that the templates view of the filesystem is
completely different (unconstrainted) vs the task's view (chrooted).
Arguably the values of these variables *should be context-specific.*
I think it's more reasonable to think of the "hack" as templating
running uncontainerized than that giving templates different paths is a
hack.
**TODO**
- [ ] E2E tests
- [ ] Job validation may still be broken and prevent my fix from
working?
**raw_exec**
`raw_exec` is actually broken _a different way_ as exercised by tests in
this commit. I think we should probably remove these tests and fix that
in a followup PR/release, but I wanted to leave them in for the initial
review and discussion. Since non-containerized source paths are broken
anyway, perhaps there's another solution to this entire problem I'm
overlooking?
This PR adds the ability to set HTTP headers when downloading
an artifact from an `http` or `https` resource.
The implementation in `go-getter` is such that a new `HTTPGetter`
must be created for each artifact that sets headers (as opposed
to conveniently setting headers per-request). This PR maintains
the memoization of the default Getter objects, creating new ones
only for artifacts where headers are set.
Closes#9306
Prior to Nomad 0.12.5, you could use `${NOMAD_SECRETS_DIR}/mysecret.txt` as
the `artifact.destination` and `template.destination` because we would always
append the destination to the task working directory. In the recent security
patch we treated the `destination` absolute path as valid if it didn't escape
the working directory, but this breaks backwards compatibility and
interpolation of `destination` fields.
This changeset partially reverts the behavior so that we always append the
destination, but we also perform the escape check on that new destination
after interpolation so the security hole is closed.
Also, ConsulTemplate test should exercise interpolation
Ensure that the client honors the client configuration for the
`template.disable_file_sandbox` field when validating the jobspec's
`template.source` parameter, and not just with consul-template's own `file`
function.
Prevent interpolated `template.source`, `template.destination`, and
`artifact.destination` fields from escaping file sandbox.

As newer versions of Consul are released, the minimum version of Envoy
it supports as a sidecar proxy also gets bumped. Starting with the upcoming
Consul v1.9.X series, Envoy v1.11.X will no longer be supported. Current
versions of Nomad hardcode a version of Envoy v1.11.2 to be used as the
default implementation of Connect sidecar proxy.
This PR introduces a change such that each Nomad Client will query its
local Consul for a list of Envoy proxies that it supports (https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/pull/8545)
and then launch the Connect sidecar proxy task using the latest supported version
of Envoy. If the `SupportedProxies` API component is not available from
Consul, Nomad will fallback to the old version of Envoy supported by old
versions of Consul.
Setting the meta configuration option `meta.connect.sidecar_image` or
setting the `connect.sidecar_task` stanza will take precedence as is
the current behavior for sidecar proxies.
Setting the meta configuration option `meta.connect.gateway_image`
will take precedence as is the current behavior for connect gateways.
`meta.connect.sidecar_image` and `meta.connect.gateway_image` may make
use of the special `${NOMAD_envoy_version}` variable interpolation, which
resolves to the newest version of Envoy supported by the Consul agent.
Addresses #8585#7665
When defining a script-check in a group-level service, Nomad needs to
know which task is associated with the check so that it can use the
correct task driver to execute the check.
This PR fixes two bugs:
1) validate service.task or service.check.task is configured
2) make service.check.task inherit service.task if it is itself unset
Fixes#8952
This PR adds initial support for running Consul Connect Ingress Gateways (CIGs) in Nomad. These gateways are declared as part of a task group level service definition within the connect stanza.
```hcl
service {
connect {
gateway {
proxy {
// envoy proxy configuration
}
ingress {
// ingress-gateway configuration entry
}
}
}
}
```
A gateway can be run in `bridge` or `host` networking mode, with the caveat that host networking necessitates manually specifying the Envoy admin listener (which cannot be disabled) via the service port value.
Currently Envoy is the only supported gateway implementation in Consul, and Nomad only supports running Envoy as a gateway using the docker driver.
Aims to address #8294 and tangentially #8647

Before, Connect Native Tasks needed one of these to work:
- To be run in host networking mode
- To have the Consul agent configured to listen to a unix socket
- To have the Consul agent configured to listen to a public interface
None of these are a great experience, though running in host networking is
still the best solution for non-Linux hosts. This PR establishes a connection
proxy between the Consul HTTP listener and a unix socket inside the alloc fs,
bypassing the network namespace for any Connect Native task. Similar to and
re-uses a bunch of code from the gRPC listener version for envoy sidecar proxies.
Proxy is established only if the alloc is configured for bridge networking and
there is at least one Connect Native task in the Task Group.

This PR adds the capability of running Connect Native Tasks on Nomad,
particularly when TLS and ACLs are enabled on Consul.
The `connect` stanza now includes a `native` parameter, which can be
set to the name of task that backs the Connect Native Consul service.
There is a new Client configuration parameter for the `consul` stanza
called `share_ssl`. Like `allow_unauthenticated` the default value is
true, but recommended to be disabled in production environments. When
enabled, the Nomad Client's Consul TLS information is shared with
Connect Native tasks through the normal Consul environment variables.
This does NOT include auth or token information.
If Consul ACLs are enabled, Service Identity Tokens are automatically
and injected into the Connect Native task through the CONSUL_HTTP_TOKEN
environment variable.
Any of the automatically set environment variables can be overridden by
the Connect Native task using the `env` stanza.
Fixes#6083
When an allocation runs for a task driver that can't support volume mounts,
the mounting will fail in a way that can be hard to understand. With host
volumes this usually means failing silently, whereas with CSI the operator
gets inscrutable internals exposed in the `nomad alloc status`.
This changeset adds a MountConfig field to the task driver Capabilities
response. We validate this when the `csi_hook` or `volume_hook` fires and
return a user-friendly error.
Note that we don't currently have a way to get driver capabilities up to the
server, except through attributes. Validating this when the user initially
submits the jobspec would be even better than what we're doing here (and could
be useful for all our other capabilities), but that's out of scope for this
changeset.
Also note that the MountConfig enum starts with "supports all" in order to
support community plugins in a backwards compatible way, rather than cutting
them off from volume mounting unexpectedly.
The `stats_hook` writes an Error log every time an allocation becomes
terminal. This is a normal condition, not an error. A real error
condition like a failure to collect the stats is logged later. It just
creates log noise, and this is a particularly bad operator experience
for heavy batch workloads.
The plugin supervisor lazily connects to plugins, but this means we
only get "Unavailable" back from the gRPC call in cases where the
plugin can never be reached (for example, if the Nomad client has the
wrong permissions for the socket).
This changeset improves the operator experience by switching to a
blocking `DialWithContext`. It eagerly connects so that we can
validate the connection is real and get a "failed to open" error in
case where Nomad can't establish the initial connection.
This change deflakes TestTaskTemplateManager_BlockedEvents test, because
it is expecting a number of events without accounting for transitional
state.
The test TestTaskTemplateManager_BlockedEvents attempts to ensure that a
template rendering emits blocked events for missing template ksys.
It works by setting a template that requires keys 0,1,2,3,4 and then
eventually sets keys 0,1,2,3 and ensures that we get a final event indicating
that keys 3 and 4 are still missing.
The test waits to get a blocked event for the final state, but it can
fail if receives a blocked event for a transitional state (e.g. one
reporting 2,3,4,5 are missing).
This fixes the test by ensuring that it waits until the final message
before assertion.
Also, it clarifies the intent of the test with stricter assertions and
additional comments.
