As part of introducing support for CSI, AllocRunner hooks need to be
able to communicate with Nomad Servers for validation of and interaction
with storage volumes. Here we create a small RPCer interface and pass
the client (rpc client) to the AR in preparation for making these RPCs.
This changeset is some pre-requisite boilerplate that is required for
introducing CSI volume management for client nodes.
It extracts out fingerprinting logic from the csi instance manager.
This change is to facilitate reusing the csimanager to also manage the
node-local CSI functionality, as it is the easiest place for us to
guaruntee health checking and to provide additional visibility into the
running operations through the fingerprinter mechanism and goroutine.
It also introduces the VolumeMounter interface that will be used to
manage staging/publishing unstaging/unpublishing of volumes on the host.
This changeset implements the initial registration and fingerprinting
of CSI Plugins as part of #5378. At a high level, it introduces the
following:
* A `csi_plugin` stanza as part of a Nomad task configuration, to
allow a task to expose that it is a plugin.
* A new task runner hook: `csi_plugin_supervisor`. This hook does two
things. When the `csi_plugin` stanza is detected, it will
automatically configure the plugin task to receive bidirectional
mounts to the CSI intermediary directory. At runtime, it will then
perform an initial heartbeat of the plugin and handle submitting it to
the new `dynamicplugins.Registry` for further use by the client, and
then run a lightweight heartbeat loop that will emit task events
when health changes.
* The `dynamicplugins.Registry` for handling plugins that run
as Nomad tasks, in contrast to the existing catalog that requires
`go-plugin` type plugins and to know the plugin configuration in
advance.
* The `csimanager` which fingerprints CSI plugins, in a similar way to
`drivermanager` and `devicemanager`. It currently only fingerprints
the NodeID from the plugin, and assumes that all plugins are
monolithic.
Missing features
* We do not use the live updates of the `dynamicplugin` registry in
the `csimanager` yet.
* We do not deregister the plugins from the client when they shutdown
yet, they just become indefinitely marked as unhealthy. This is
deliberate until we figure out how we should manage deploying new
versions of plugins/transitioning them.
Nomad jobs may be configured with a TaskGroup which contains a Service
definition that is Consul Connect enabled. These service definitions end
up establishing a Consul Connect Proxy Task (e.g. envoy, by default). In
the case where Consul ACLs are enabled, a Service Identity token is required
for these tasks to run & connect, etc. This changeset enables the Nomad Server
to recieve RPC requests for the derivation of SI tokens on behalf of instances
of Consul Connect using Tasks. Those tokens are then relayed back to the
requesting Client, which then injects the tokens in the secrets directory of
the Task.
When a job is configured with Consul Connect aware tasks (i.e. sidecar),
the Nomad Client should be able to request from Consul (through Nomad Server)
Service Identity tokens specific to those tasks.

* client: improve group service stanza interpolation and check_restart support
Interpolation can now be done on group service stanzas. Note that some task runtime specific information
that was previously available when the service was registered poststart of a task is no longer available.
The check_restart stanza for checks defined on group services will now properly restart the allocation upon
check failures if configured.
Protect against a race where destroying and persist state goroutines
race.
The downside is that the database io operation will run while holding
the lock and may run indefinitely. The risk of lock being long held is
slow destruction, but slow io has bigger problems.
This fixes a bug where allocs that have been GCed get re-run again after client
is restarted. A heavily-used client may launch thousands of allocs on startup
and get killed.
The bug is that an alloc runner that gets destroyed due to GC remains in
client alloc runner set. Periodically, they get persisted until alloc is
gced by server. During that time, the client db will contain the alloc
but not its individual tasks status nor completed state. On client restart,
client assumes that alloc is pending state and re-runs it.
Here, we fix it by ensuring that destroyed alloc runners don't persist any alloc
to the state DB.
This is a short-term fix, as we should consider revamping client state
management. Storing alloc and task information in non-transaction non-atomic
concurrently while alloc runner is running and potentially changing state is a
recipe for bugs.

When an alloc runner prestart hook fails, the task runners aren't invoked
and they remain in a pending state.
This leads to terrible results, some of which are:
* Lockup in GC process as reported in https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/pull/5861
* Lockup in shutdown process as TR.Shutdown() waits for WaitCh to be closed
* Alloc not being restarted/rescheduled to another node (as it's still in
pending state)
* Unexpected restart of alloc on a client restart, potentially days/weeks after
alloc expected start time!
Here, we treat all tasks to have failed if alloc runner prestart hook fails.
This fixes the lockups, and permits the alloc to be rescheduled on another node.
While it's desirable to retry alloc runner in such failures, I opted to treat it
out of scope. I'm afraid of some subtles about alloc and task runners and their
idempotency that's better handled in a follow up PR.
This might be one of the root causes for
https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/issues/5840 .
Alloc runner already tracks tasks associated with alloc. Here, we
become defensive by relying on the alloc runner tracked tasks, rather
than depend on server never updating the job unexpectedly.

Switch the MarkLive method for a chan that is closed by the client.
Thanks to @notnoop for the idea!
The old approach called a method on most existing ARs and TRs on every
runAllocs call. The new approach does a once.Do call in runAllocs to
accomplish the same thing with less work. Able to remove the gate
abstraction that did much more than was needed.
Fixes#1795
Running restored allocations and pulling what allocations to run from
the server happen concurrently. This means that if a client is rebooted,
and has its allocations rescheduled, it may restart the dead allocations
before it contacts the server and determines they should be dead.
This commit makes tasks that fail to reattach on restore wait until the
server is contacted before restarting.
This fixes a confusing UX where a previously successful deployment's
healthy/unhealthy count would get updated if any allocations failed after
the deployment was already marked as successful.
This command will be used to send a signal to either a single task within an
allocation, or all of the tasks if <task-name> is omitted. If the sent signal
terminates the allocation, it will be treated as if the allocation has crashed,
rather than as if it was operator-terminated.
Signal validation is currently handled by the driver itself and nomad
does not attempt to restrict or validate them.
This adds a `nomad alloc restart` command and api that allows a job operator
with the alloc-lifecycle acl to perform an in-place restart of a Nomad
allocation, or a given subtask.
This commit is a significant change. TR.Run is now always executed, even
for terminal allocations. This was changed to allow TR.Run to cleanup
(run stop hooks) if a handle was recovered.
This is intended to handle the case of Nomad receiving a
DesiredStatus=Stop allocation update, persisting it, but crashing before
stopping AR/TR.
The commit also renames task runner hook data as it was very easy to
accidently set state on Requests instead of Responses using the old
field names.
We were just emitting Killed/Terminated events before. In v0.8 we
emitted Killing/Killed, but lacked Terminated when explicitly stopping
a task. This change makes it so Terminated is always included, whether
explicitly stopping a task or it exiting on its own.

The driver manager is modeled after the device manager and is started by the client.
It's responsible for handling driver lifecycle and reattachment state, as well as
processing the incomming fingerprint and task events from each driver. The mananger
exposes a method for registering event handlers for task events that is used by the
task runner to update the server when a task has been updated with an event.
Since driver fingerprinting has been implemented by the driver manager, it is no
longer needed in the fingerprint mananger and has been removed.
This creates a new buffered channel and goroutine on the allocrunner for
serializing updates to allocations. This allows us to take updates off
the routine that is used from processing updates from the server,
without having complicated machinery for tracking update lifetimes, or
other external synchronization.
This results in a nice performance improvement and signficantly better
throughput on batch changes such as preempting a large number of jobs
for a larger placement.
This commit reduces the locking required to shutdown or destroy
allocrunners, and allows parallel shutdown and destroy of allocrunners during
shutdown.
When starting an allocation that is preempting other allocs, we create a
new group allocation watcher, and then wait for the allocations to
terminate in the allocation PreRun hooks.
If there's no preempted allocations, then we simply provide a
NoopAllocWatcher.
This PR introduces a device hook that retrieves the device mount
information for an allocation. It also updates the computed node class
computation to take into account devices.
TODO Fix the task runner unit test. The environment variable is being
lost even though it is being properly set in the prestart hook.
