A Nomad user reported problems with CSI volumes associated with failed
allocations, where the Nomad server did not send a controller unpublish RPC.
The controller unpublish is skipped if other non-terminal allocations on the
same node claim the volume. The check has a bug where the allocation belonging
to the claim being freed was included in the check incorrectly. During a normal
allocation stop for job stop or a new version of the job, the allocation is
terminal. But allocations that fail are not yet marked terminal at the point in
time when the client sends the unpublish RPC to the server.
For CSI plugins that support controller attach/detach, this means that the
controller will not be able to detach the volume from the allocation's host and
the replacement claim will fail until a GC is run. This changeset fixes the
conditional so that the claim's own allocation is not included, and makes the
logic easier to read. Include a test case covering this path.
Also includes two minor extra bugfixes:
* Entities we get from the state store should always be copied before
altering. Ensure that we copy the volume in the top-level unpublish workflow
before handing off to the steps.
* The list stub object for volumes in `nomad/structs` did not match the stub
object in `api`. The `api` package also did not include the current
readers/writers fields that are expected by the UI. True up the two objects and
add the previously undocumented fields to the docs.
Neither the `os.Setenv` nor `t.Setenv` helper are safe to use in parallel tests
because environment variables are process-global. The stdlib panics if you try
to do this. Remove the `ci.Parallel()` call from all tests where we're setting
environment variables.
An ACL roles name must be unique, however, a bug meant multiple
roles of the same same could be created. This fixes that problem
with checks in the RPC handler and state store.
* allocrunner: handle lifecycle when all tasks die
When all tasks die the Coordinator must transition to its terminal
state, coordinatorStatePoststop, to unblock poststop tasks. Since this
could happen at any time (for example, a prestart task dies), all states
must be able to transition to this terminal state.
* allocrunner: implement different alloc restarts
Add a new alloc restart mode where all tasks are restarted, even if they
have already exited. Also unifies the alloc restart logic to use the
implementation that restarts tasks concurrently and ignores
ErrTaskNotRunning errors since those are expected when restarting the
allocation.
* allocrunner: allow tasks to run again
Prevent the task runner Run() method from exiting to allow a dead task
to run again. When the task runner is signaled to restart, the function
will jump back to the MAIN loop and run it again.
The task runner determines if a task needs to run again based on two new
task events that were added to differentiate between a request to
restart a specific task, the tasks that are currently running, or all
tasks that have already run.
* api/cli: add support for all tasks alloc restart
Implement the new -all-tasks alloc restart CLI flag and its API
counterpar, AllTasks. The client endpoint calls the appropriate restart
method from the allocrunner depending on the restart parameters used.
* test: fix tasklifecycle Coordinator test
* allocrunner: kill taskrunners if all tasks are dead
When all non-poststop tasks are dead we need to kill the taskrunners so
we don't leak their goroutines, which are blocked in the alloc restart
loop. This also ensures the allocrunner exits on its own.
* taskrunner: fix tests that waited on WaitCh
Now that "dead" tasks may run again, the taskrunner Run() method will
not return when the task finishes running, so tests must wait for the
task state to be "dead" instead of using the WaitCh, since it won't be
closed until the taskrunner is killed.
* tests: add tests for all tasks alloc restart
* changelog: add entry for #14127
* taskrunner: fix restore logic.
The first implementation of the task runner restore process relied on
server data (`tr.Alloc().TerminalStatus()`) which may not be available
to the client at the time of restore.
It also had the incorrect code path. When restoring a dead task the
driver handle always needs to be clear cleanly using `clearDriverHandle`
otherwise, after exiting the MAIN loop, the task may be killed by
`tr.handleKill`.
The fix is to store the state of the Run() loop in the task runner local
client state: if the task runner ever exits this loop cleanly (not with
a shutdown) it will never be able to run again. So if the Run() loops
starts with this local state flag set, it must exit early.
This local state flag is also being checked on task restart requests. If
the task is "dead" and its Run() loop is not active it will never be
able to run again.
* address code review requests
* apply more code review changes
* taskrunner: add different Restart modes
Using the task event to differentiate between the allocrunner restart
methods proved to be confusing for developers to understand how it all
worked.
So instead of relying on the event type, this commit separated the logic
of restarting an taskRunner into two methods:
- `Restart` will retain the current behaviour and only will only restart
the task if it's currently running.
- `ForceRestart` is the new method where a `dead` task is allowed to
restart if its `Run()` method is still active. Callers will need to
restart the allocRunner taskCoordinator to make sure it will allow the
task to run again.
* minor fixes
The original design for workload identities and ACLs allows for operators to
extend the automatic capabilities of a workload by using a specially-named
policy. This has shown to be potentially unsafe because of naming collisions, so
instead we'll allow operators to explicitly attach a policy to a workload
identity.
This changeset adds workload identity fields to ACL policy objects and threads
that all the way down to the command line. It also a new secondary index to the
ACL policy table on namespace and job so that claim resolution can efficiently
query for related policies.
When a Nomad agent starts and loads jobs that already existed in the
cluster, the default template uid and gid was being set to 0, since this
is the zero value for int. This caused these jobs to fail in
environments where it was not possible to use 0, such as in Windows
clients.
In order to differentiate between an explicit 0 and a template where
these properties were not set we need to use a pointer.
Making the ACL Role listing return object a stub future-proofs the
endpoint. In the event the role object grows, we are not bound by
having to return all fields within the list endpoint or change the
signature of the endpoint to reduce the list return size.
This PR adds some NSD check status output to the CLI.
1. The 'nomad alloc status' command produces nsd check summary output (if present)
2. The 'nomad alloc checks' sub-command is added to produce complete nsd check output (if present)
HTTP API consumers that have network line-of-sight to client nodes can connect
directly for a small number of APIs. But in environments where the consumer
doesn't have line-of-sight, there's a long pause waiting for the
`api.ClientConnTimeout` to expire. Warn about this in the API docs so that
authors can avoid the extra timeout.
UID/GID 0 is usually reserved for the root user/group. While Nomad
clients are expected to run as root it may not always be the case.
Setting these values as -1 if not defined will fallback to the pervious
behaviour of not attempting to set file ownership and use whatever
UID/GID the Nomad agent is running as. It will also keep backwards
compatibility, which is specially important for platforms where this
feature is not supported, like Windows.
* Allow specification of CSI staging and publishing directory path
* Add website documentation for stage_publish_dir
* Replace erroneous reference to csi_plugin.mount_config with csi_plugin.mount_dir
* Avoid requiring CSI plugins to be redeployed after introducing StagePublishDir
Move the secure variables quota enforcement calls into the state store to ensure
quota checks are atomic with quota updates (in the same transaction).
Switch to a machine-size int instead of a uint64 for quota tracking. The
ENT-side quota spec is described as int, and negative values have a meaning as
"not permitted at all". Using the same type for tracking will make it easier to
the math around checks, and uint64 is infeasibly large anyways.
Add secure vars to quota HTTP API and CLI outputs and API docs.
Most of our objects use int64 timestamps derived from `UnixNano()` instead of
`time.Time` objects. Switch the keyring metadata to use `UnixNano()` for
consistency across the API.
When the `Full` flag is passed for key rotation, we kick off a core
job to decrypt and re-encrypt all the secure variables so that they
use the new key.
* Add Path only index for SecureVariables
* Add GetSecureVariablesByPrefix; refactor tests
* Add search for SecureVariables
* Add prefix search for secure variables
After internal design review, we decided to remove exposing algorithm
choice to the end-user for the initial release. We'll solve nonce
rotation by forcing rotations automatically on key GC (in a core job,
not included in this changeset). Default to AES-256 GCM for the
following criteria:
* faster implementation when hardware acceleration is available
* FIPS compliant
* implementation in pure go
* post-quantum resistance
Also fixed a bug in the decoding from keystore and switched to a
harder-to-misuse encoding method.
When a server becomes leader, it will check if there are any keys in
the state store, and create one if there is not. The key metadata will
be replicated via raft to all followers, who will then get the key
material via key replication (not implemented in this changeset).
This changeset implements the keystore serialization/deserialization:
* Adds a JSON serialization extension for the `RootKey` struct, along with a metadata stub. When we serialize RootKey to the on-disk keystore, we want to base64 encode the key material but also exclude any frequently-changing fields which are stored in raft.
* Implements methods for loading/saving keys to the keystore.
* Implements methods for restoring the whole keystore from disk.
* Wires it all up with the `Keyring` RPC handlers and fixes up any fallout on tests.
