Consul CLI uses CONSUL_HTTP_TOKEN, so Nomad should use the same.
Note that consul-template uses CONSUL_TOKEN, which Nomad also uses,
so be careful to preserve any reference to that in the consul-template
context.
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.
This change provides an initial pass at setting up the configuration necessary to
enable use of Connect with Consul ACLs. Operators will be able to pass in a Consul
Token through `-consul-token` or `$CONSUL_TOKEN` in the `job run` and `job revert`
commands (similar to Vault tokens).
These values are not actually used yet in this changeset.
Introduce limits to prevent unauthorized users from exhausting all
ephemeral ports on agents:
* `{https,rpc}_handshake_timeout`
* `{http,rpc}_max_conns_per_client`
The handshake timeout closes connections that have not completed the TLS
handshake by the deadline (5s by default). For RPC connections this
timeout also separately applies to first byte being read so RPC
connections with TLS enabled have `rpc_handshake_time * 2` as their
deadline.
The connection limit per client prevents a single remote TCP peer from
exhausting all ephemeral ports. The default is 100, but can be lowered
to a minimum of 26. Since streaming RPC connections create a new TCP
connection (until MultiplexV2 is used), 20 connections are reserved for
Raft and non-streaming RPCs to prevent connection exhaustion due to
streaming RPCs.
All limits are configurable and may be disabled by setting them to `0`.
This also includes a fix that closes connections that attempt to create
TLS RPC connections recursively. While only users with valid mTLS
certificates could perform such an operation, it was added as a
safeguard to prevent programming errors before they could cause resource
exhaustion.
When parsing a config file which had the consul.timeout param set,
Nomad was reporting an error causing startup to fail. This seems
to be caused by the HCL decoder interpreting the timeout type as
an int rather than a string. This is caused by the struct
TimeoutHCL param having a hcl key of timeout alongside a Timeout
struct param of type time.Duration (int). Ensuring the decoder
ignores the Timeout struct param ensure the decoder runs
correctly.
* connect: add unix socket to proxy grpc for envoy
Fixes#6124
Implement a L4 proxy from a unix socket inside a network namespace to
Consul's gRPC endpoint on the host. This allows Envoy to connect to
Consul's xDS configuration API.
* connect: pointer receiver on structs with mutexes
* connect: warn on all proxy errors
* master: (912 commits)

This change allows the client HTTP and the server HTTP, Serf and
RPC health check names within Consul to be configurable with the
defaults as previous. The configuration can be done via either a
config file or using CLI flags.
Closes#3988
* Allow server TLS configuration to be reloaded via SIGHUP
* dynamic tls reloading for nomad agents
* code cleanup and refactoring
* ensure keyloader is initialized, add comments
* allow downgrading from TLS
* initalize keyloader if necessary
* integration test for tls reload
* fix up test to assert success on reloaded TLS configuration
* failure in loading a new TLS config should remain at current
Reload only the config if agent is already using TLS
* reload agent configuration before specific server/client
lock keyloader before loading/caching a new certificate
* introduce a get-or-set method for keyloader
* fixups from code review
* fix up linting errors
* fixups from code review
* add lock for config updates; improve copy of tls config
* GetCertificate only reloads certificates dynamically for the server
* config updates/copies should be on agent
* improve http integration test
* simplify agent reloading storing a local copy of config
* reuse the same keyloader when reloading
* Test that server and client get reloaded but keep keyloader
* Keyloader exposes GetClientCertificate as well for outgoing connections
* Fix spelling
* correct changelog style
Since I was already fixing consul's tls handling in #2645 I decided to
update consul/api and pre-emptively fix our tls handling against the
newest consul/api behavior. consul/api's handling of http.Transports has
improved but would have broken how we handled tls (again).
This would have made for a nasty surprise the next time we updated
consul/api.
