This change makes few compromises:
* Looks up the devices associated with tasks at look up time. Given
that `nomad alloc status` is called rarely generally (compared to stats
telemetry and general job reporting), it seems fine. However, the
lookup overhead grows bounded by number of `tasks x total-host-devices`,
which can be significant.
* `client.Client` performs the task devices->statistics lookup. It
passes self to alloc/task runners so they can look up the device statistics
allocated to them.
* Currently alloc/task runners are responsible for constructing the
entire RPC response for stats
* The alternatives for making task runners device statistics aware
don't seem appealing (e.g. having task runners contain reference to hostStats)
* On the alloc aggregation resource usage, I did a naive merging of task device statistics.
* Personally, I question the value of such aggregation, compared to
costs of struct duplication and bloating the response - but opted to be
consistent in the API.
* With naive concatination, device instances from a single device group used by separate tasks in the alloc, would be aggregated in two separate device group statistics.
This adds constraints for asserting that a given attribute or value
exists, or does not exist. This acts as a companion to =, or !=
operators, e.g:
```hcl
constraint {
attribute = "${attrs.type}"
operator = "!="
value = "database"
}
constraint {
attribute = "${attrs.type}"
operator = "is_set"
}
```
In state values, we need to be able to distinguish between zero values
(e.g. `false`) and unset values (e.g. `nil`).
We can alternatively use protobuf `oneOf` and nested map to ensure
consistency of fields that are set together, but the golang
representation does not represent that well and introducing a mismatch
between representations. Thus, I opted not to use it.
* upgrade Nomad from 0.8.4 to 0.8.6
* update deprecated nomad and vault commands
* update AMI ID
* add ingress rule for default fabio port and fabio UI
* upgrade Consul and Vault versions
* update AMI ID in README.md and terraform.tfvars
This commit allows the ConstraintChecker to test values that do not exist.
This is useful when wanting to _exclude_ given nodes from executing a
job, for example, if you wanted to give canary nodes an attribute, and
not run critical services on them, you may specify something like the
below, but not want to tag all other nodes with the inverse.
```hcl
constraint {
attribute = "${node.attr.canary}
operator = "!="
value = "1"
}
```
This also requires all constraint checkers to allow for nil target
values, as they will no longer be short circuited by resolving a target.
