Fixes#5395
Alternative to #5957
Make task restarting asynchronous when handling check-based restarts.
This matches the pre-0.9 behavior where TaskRunner.Restart was an
asynchronous signal. The check-based restarting code was not designed
to handle blocking in TaskRunner.Restart. 0.9 made it reentrant and
could easily overwhelm the buffered update chan and deadlock.
Many thanks to @byronwolfman for his excellent debugging, PR, and
reproducer!
I created this alternative as changing the functionality of
TaskRunner.Restart has a much larger impact. This approach reverts to
old known-good behavior and minimizes the number of places changes are
made.
When a nomad client restarts/upgraded, nomad restores state from running
task and starts the sync loop. If sync loop runs early, it may
deregister services from Consul prematurely even when Consul has the
running service as healthy.
This is not ideal, as re-registering the service means potentially
waiting a whole service health check interval before declaring the
service healthy.
We attempt to mitigate this by introducing an initialization probation
period. During this time, we only deregister services and checks that
were explicitly deregistered, and leave unrecognized ones alone. This
serves as a grace period for restoring to complete, or for operators to
restore should they recognize they restored with the wrong nomad data
directory.
- updated region in job metadata that gets persisted to nomad datastore
- fixed many unrelated unit tests that used an invalid region value
(they previously passed because hcl wasn't getting picked up and
the job would default to global region)
It is possible to provide multiple identically named services with
different port assignments in a Nomad configuration.
We introduced a regression when migrating to stable service identifiers where
multiple services with the same name would conflict, and the last definition
would take precedence.
This commit includes the port label in the stable service identifier to
allow the previous behaviour where this was supported, for example
providing:
```hcl
service {
name = "redis-cache"
tags = ["global", "cache"]
port = "db"
check {
name = "alive"
type = "tcp"
interval = "10s"
timeout = "2s"
}
}
service {
name = "redis-cache"
tags = ["global", "foo"]
port = "foo"
check {
name = "alive"
type = "tcp"
port = "db"
interval = "10s"
timeout = "2s"
}
}
service {
name = "redis-cache"
tags = ["global", "bar"]
port = "bar"
check {
name = "alive"
type = "tcp"
port = "db"
interval = "10s"
timeout = "2s"
}
}
```
in a nomad task definition is now completely valid. Each service
definition with the same name must still have a unique port label however.
Currently when you submit a manual request to the alloc lifecycle API
with a version of Curl that will submit empty bodies, the alloc restart
api will fail with an EOF error.
This behaviour is undesired, as it is reasonable to not submit a body at
all when restarting an entire allocation rather than an individual task.
This fixes it by ignoring EOF (not unexpected EOF) errors and treating
them as entire task restarts.
Enterprise only.
Disable preemption for service and batch jobs by default.
Maintain backward compatibility in a x.y.Z release. Consider switching
the default for new clusters in the future.
This exposes a client flag to disable nomad remote exec support in
environments where access to tasks ought to be restricted.
I used `disable_remote_exec` client flag that defaults to allowing
remote exec. Opted for a client config that can be used to disable
remote exec globally, or to a subset of the cluster if necessary.
