This change updates tests to honor `BootstrapExpect` exclusively when
forming test clusters and removes test only knobs, e.g.
`config.DevDisableBootstrap`.
Background:
Test cluster creation is fragile. Test servers don't follow the
BootstapExpected route like production clusters. Instead they start as
single node clusters and then get rejoin and may risk causing brain
split or other test flakiness.
The test framework expose few knobs to control those (e.g.
`config.DevDisableBootstrap` and `config.Bootstrap`) that control
whether a server should bootstrap the cluster. These flags are
confusing and it's unclear when to use: their usage in multi-node
cluster isn't properly documented. Furthermore, they have some bad
side-effects as they don't control Raft library: If
`config.DevDisableBootstrap` is true, the test server may not
immediately attempt to bootstrap a cluster, but after an election
timeout (~50ms), Raft may force a leadership election and win it (with
only one vote) and cause a split brain.
The knobs are also confusing as Bootstrap is an overloaded term. In
BootstrapExpect, we refer to bootstrapping the cluster only after N
servers are connected. But in tests and the knobs above, it refers to
whether the server is a single node cluster and shouldn't wait for any
other server.
Changes:
This commit makes two changes:
First, it relies on `BootstrapExpected` instead of `Bootstrap` and/or
`DevMode` flags. This change is relatively trivial.
Introduce a `Bootstrapped` flag to track if the cluster is bootstrapped.
This allows us to keep `BootstrapExpected` immutable. Previously, the
flag was a config value but it gets set to 0 after cluster bootstrap
completes.
hashicorp/hcl library added some better validation for error and illegal
characters. The diff is primarily improved error reporting. The
parser.go change includes a case where illegal characters were silently
dropped, but now get reported as invalid characters.
Nomad agent may silently ignore cni_path and bridge setting, when it
merges configs from multiple files (or against default/dev config).
This PR ensures that the values are merged properly.
When canonicalizing the ReschedulePolicy a panic was possible if
the passed job type was not valid. This change protects against
this possibility, in a verbose way to ensure the code path is
clear.
The API decodeBody function will now check the content length
before attempting to decode. If the length is zero, and the out
interface is nil then it is safe to assume the API call is not
returning any data to the user. This allows us to better handle
passing nil to API calls in a single place.
Fix a bug where consul service definitions would not be updated if changes
were made to the service in the Nomad job. Currently this only fixes the
bug for cases where the fix is a matter of updating consul agent's service
registration. There is related bug where destructive changes are required
(see #6877) which will be fixed in another PR.
The enable_tag_override configuration setting for the parent service is
applied to the sidecar service.
Fixes#6459
