The volume watcher design was based on deploymentwatcher and drainer,
but has an important difference: we don't want to maintain a goroutine
for the lifetime of the volume. So we stop the volumewatcher goroutine
for a volume when that volume has no more claims to free. But the
shutdown races with updates on the parent goroutine, and it's possible
to drop updates. Fortunately these updates are picked up on the next
core GC job, but we're most likely to hit this race when we're
replacing an allocation and that's the time we least want to wait.
Wait until the volume has "settled" before stopping this goroutine so
that the race between shutdown and the parent goroutine sending on
`<-updateCh` is pushed to after the window we most care about quick
freeing of claims.
* Fixes a resource leak when volumewatchers are no longer needed. The
volume is nil and can't ever be started again, so the volume's
`watcher` should be removed from the top-level `Watcher`.
* De-flakes the GC job test: the test throws an error because the
claimed node doesn't exist and is unreachable. This flaked instead of
failed because we didn't correctly wait for the first pass through the
volumewatcher.
Make the GC job wait for the volumewatcher to reach the quiescent
timeout window state before running the GC eval under test, so that
we're sure the GC job's work isn't being picked up by processing one
of the earlier claims. Update the claims used so that we're sure the
GC pass won't hit a node unpublish error.
* Adds trace logging to unpublish operations
* The volume claim GC method and volumewatcher both have logic
collecting terminal allocations that duplicates most of the logic
that's now in the state store's `CSIVolumeDenormalize` method. Copy
this logic into the state store so that all code paths have the same
view of the past claims.
* Remove logic in the volume claim GC that now lives in the state
store's `CSIVolumeDenormalize` method.
* Remove logic in the volumewatcher that now lives in the state
store's `CSIVolumeDenormalize` method.
* Remove logic in the node unpublish RPC that now lives in the state
store's `CSIVolumeDenormalize` method.
When `volumewatcher.Watcher` starts on the leader, it starts a watch
on every volume and triggers a reap of unused claims on any change to
that volume. But if a reaping is in-flight during leadership
transitions, it will fail and the event that triggered the reap will
be dropped. Perform one reap of unused claims at the start of the
watcher so that leadership transitions don't drop this event.
If a volume GC and a `nomad volume detach` command land concurrently, we can
end up with multiple claims without an allocation, which results in extra
no-op work when finding claims to collect as past claims.
Add a Postrun hook to send the `CSIVolume.Unpublish` RPC to the server. This
may forward client RPCs to the node plugins or to the controller plugins,
depending on whether other allocations on this node have claims on this
volume.
By making clients responsible for running the `CSIVolume.Unpublish` RPC (and
making the RPC available to a `nomad volume detach` command), the
volumewatcher becomes only used by the core GC job and we no longer need
async volume GC from job deregister and node update.
This changeset updates `nomad/volumewatcher` to take advantage of the
`CSIVolume.Unpublish` RPC. This lets us eliminate a bunch of code and
associated tests. The raft batching code can be safely dropped, as the
characteristic times of the CSI RPCs are on the order of seconds or even
minutes, so batching up raft RPCs added complexity without any real world
performance wins.
Includes refactor w/ test cleanup and dead code elimination in volumewatcher
CSI plugins can require credentials for some publishing and
unpublishing workflow RPCs. Secrets are configured at the time of
volume registration, stored in the volume struct, and then passed
around as an opaque map by Nomad to the plugins.
The watcher goroutines will be automatically started if a volume has
updates, but when idle we shouldn't keep a goroutine running and
taking up memory.
* volumewatcher: remove redundant log fields
The constructor for `volumeWatcher` already sets a `logger.With` that
includes the volume ID and namespace fields. Remove them from the
various trace logs.
* volumewatcher: advance state for controller already released
One way of bypassing client RPCs in testing is to set a claim status
to controller-detached, but this results in an incorrect claim state
when we checkpoint.
The nil-check here is left-over from an earlier approach that didn't
get merged. It doesn't do anything for us now as we can't ever pass it
`nil` and if we leave it in the `getVolume` call it guards will panic
anyways.
This changeset adds a subsystem to run on the leader, similar to the
deployment watcher or node drainer. The `Watcher` performs a blocking
query on updates to the `CSIVolumes` table and triggers reaping of
volume claims.
This will avoid tying up scheduling workers by immediately sending
volume claim workloads into their own loop, rather than blocking the
scheduling workers in the core GC job doing things like talking to CSI
controllers
The volume watcher is enabled on leader step-up and disabled on leader
step-down.
The volume claim GC mechanism now makes an empty claim RPC for the
volume to trigger an index bump. That in turn unblocks the blocking
query in the volume watcher so it can assess which claims can be
released for a volume.
