* 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 current implementation for the task coordinator unblocks tasks by
performing destructive operations over its internal state (like closing
channels and deleting maps from keys).
This presents a problem in situations where we would like to revert the
state of a task, such as when restarting an allocation with tasks that
have already exited.
With this new implementation the task coordinator behaves more like a
finite state machine where task may be blocked/unblocked multiple times
by performing a state transition.
This initial part of the work only refactors the task coordinator and
is functionally equivalent to the previous implementation. Future work
will build upon this to provide bug fixes and enhancements.
This PR adds support for specifying checks in services registered to
the built-in nomad service provider.
Currently only HTTP and TCP checks are supported, though more types
could be added later.
This PR fixes a bug where client configuration max_kill_timeout was
not being enforced. The feature was introduced in 9f44780 but seems
to have been removed during the major drivers refactoring.
We can make sure the value is enforced by pluming it through the DriverHandler,
which now uses the lesser of the task.killTimeout or client.maxKillTimeout.
Also updates Event.SetKillTimeout to require both the task.killTimeout and
client.maxKillTimeout so that we don't make the mistake of using the wrong
value - as it was being given only the task.killTimeout before.
Fix numerous go-getter security issues:
- Add timeouts to http, git, and hg operations to prevent DoS
- Add size limit to http to prevent resource exhaustion
- Disable following symlinks in both artifacts and `job run`
- Stop performing initial HEAD request to avoid file corruption on
retries and DoS opportunities.
**Approach**
Since Nomad has no ability to differentiate a DoS-via-large-artifact vs
a legitimate workload, all of the new limits are configurable at the
client agent level.
The max size of HTTP downloads is also exposed as a node attribute so
that if some workloads have large artifacts they can specify a high
limit in their jobspecs.
In the future all of this plumbing could be extended to enable/disable
specific getters or artifact downloading entirely on a per-node basis.
This commit performs refactoring to pull out common service
registration objects into a new `client/serviceregistration`
package. This new package will form the base point for all
client specific service registration functionality.
The Consul specific implementation is not moved as it also
includes non-service registration implementations; this reduces
the blast radius of the changes as well.
Some operators use very long group/task `shutdown_delay` settings to
safely drain network connections to their workloads after service
deregistration. But during incident response, they may want to cause
that drain to be skipped so they can quickly shed load.
Provide a `-no-shutdown-delay` flag on the `nomad alloc stop` and
`nomad job stop` commands that bypasses the delay. This sets a new
desired transition state on the affected allocations that the
allocation/task runner will identify during pre-kill on the client.
Note (as documented here) that using this flag will almost always
result in failed inbound network connections for workloads as the
tasks will exit before clients receive updated service discovery
information and won't be gracefully drained.
Fixes#2522
Skip embedding client.alloc_dir when building chroot. If a user
configures a Nomad client agent so that the chroot_env will embed the
client.alloc_dir, Nomad will happily infinitely recurse while building
the chroot until something horrible happens. The best case scenario is
the filesystem's path length limit is hit. The worst case scenario is
disk space is exhausted.
A bad agent configuration will look something like this:
```hcl
data_dir = "/tmp/nomad-badagent"
client {
enabled = true
chroot_env {
# Note that the source matches the data_dir
"/tmp/nomad-badagent" = "/ohno"
# ...
}
}
```
Note that `/ohno/client` (the state_dir) will still be created but not
`/ohno/alloc` (the alloc_dir).
While I cannot think of a good reason why someone would want to embed
Nomad's client (and possibly server) directories in chroots, there
should be no cause for harm. chroots are only built when Nomad runs as
root, and Nomad disables running exec jobs as root by default. Therefore
even if client state is copied into chroots, it will be inaccessible to
tasks.
Skipping the `data_dir` and `{client,server}.state_dir` is possible, but
this PR attempts to implement the minimum viable solution to reduce risk
of unintended side effects or bugs.
When running tests as root in a vm without the fix, the following error
occurs:
```

Thanks to @eveld for not letting me forget about this!
Most allocation hooks don't need to know when a single task within the
allocation is restarted. The check watcher for group services triggers the
alloc runner to restart all tasks, but the alloc runner's `Restart` method
doesn't trigger any of the alloc hooks, including the group service hook. The
result is that after the first time a check triggers a restart, we'll never
restart the tasks of an allocation again.
This commit adds a `RunnerTaskRestartHook` interface so that alloc runner
hooks can act if a task within the alloc is restarted. The only implementation
is in the group service hook, which will force a re-registration of the
alloc's services and fix check restarts.
* consul: advertise cni and multi host interface addresses
* structs: add service/check address_mode validation
* ar/groupservices: fetch networkstatus at hook runtime
* ar/groupservice: nil check network status getter before calling
* consul: comment network status can be nil
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
This fixes a bug where a batch allocation fails to complete if it has
sidecars.
If the only remaining running tasks in an allocations are sidecars - we
must kill them and mark the allocation as complete.
This commit is an initial (read: janky) approach to forwarding state
from an allocrunner hook to a taskrunner using a similar `hookResources`
approach that tr's use internally.
It should eventually probably be replaced with something a little bit
more message based, but for things that only come from pre-run hooks,
and don't change, it's probably fine for now.
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.

Related to https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/pull/5890
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.
