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.
When `nomad volume create` was introduced in Nomad 1.1.0, we changed the
volume spec to take a list of capabilities rather than a single capability, to
meet the requirements of the CSI spec. When a volume is registered via `nomad
volume register`, we should be using the same fields to validate the volume
with the controller plugin.
Include the VolumeCapability.MountVolume data in
ControllerPublishVolume, CreateVolume, and ValidateVolumeCapabilities
RPCs sent to the CSI controller. The previous behavior was to only
include the MountVolume capability in the NodeStageVolume request, which
on some CSI implementations would be rejected since the Volume was not
originally provisioned with the specific mount capabilities requested.
The MVP for CSI in the 0.11.0 release of Nomad did not include support
for opaque volume parameters or volume context. This changeset adds
support for both.
This also moves args for ControllerValidateCapabilities into a struct.
The CSI plugin `ControllerValidateCapabilities` struct that we turn
into a CSI RPC is accumulating arguments, so moving it into a request
struct will reduce the churn of this internal API, make the plugin
code more readable, and make this method consistent with the other
plugin methods in that package.
The CSI plugins RPCs require the use of the storage provider's volume
ID, rather than the user-defined volume ID. Although changing the RPCs
to use the field name `ExternalID` risks breaking backwards
compatibility, we can use the `ExternalID` name internally for the
client and only use `VolumeID` at the RPC boundaries.
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.
When serializing structs with msgpack, only consider type tags of
`codec`.
Hashicorp/go-msgpack (based on ugorji/go) defaults to interpretting
`codec` tag if it's available, but falls to using `json` if `codec`
isn't present.
This behavior is surprising in cases where we want to serialize json
differently from msgpack, e.g. serializing `ConsulExposeConfig`.
Use v1.1.5 of go-msgpack/codec/codecgen, so go-msgpack codecgen matches
the library version.
We branched off earlier to pick up
f51b518921
, but apparently that's not needed as we could customize the package via
`-c` argument.
The CSI plugins uses the external volume ID for all operations, but
the Client CSI RPCs uses the Nomad volume ID (human-friendly) for the
mount paths. Pass the External ID as an arg in the RPC call so that
the unpublish workflows have it without calling back to the server to
find the external ID.
The controller CSI plugins need the CSI node ID (or in other words,
the storage provider's view of node ID like the EC2 instance ID), not
the Nomad node ID, to determine how to detach the external volume.
If a volume-claiming alloc stops and the CSI Node plugin that serves
that alloc's volumes is missing, there's no way for the allocrunner
hook to send the `NodeUnpublish` and `NodeUnstage` RPCs.
This changeset addresses this issue with a redesign of the client-side
for CSI. Rather than unmounting in the alloc runner hook, the alloc
runner hook will simply exit. When the server gets the
`Node.UpdateAlloc` for the terminal allocation that had a volume claim,
it creates a volume claim GC job. This job will made client RPCs to a
new node plugin RPC endpoint, and only once that succeeds, move on to
making the client RPCs to the controller plugin. If the node plugin is
unavailable, the GC job will fail and be requeued.
Currently the handling of CSINode RPCs does not correctly handle
forwarding RPCs to Nodes.
This commit fixes this by introducing a shim RPC
(nomad/client_csi_enpdoint) that will correctly forward the request to
the owning node, or submit the RPC to the client.
In the process it also cleans up handling a little bit by adding the
`CSIControllerQuery` embeded struct for required forwarding state.
The CSIControllerQuery embeding the requirement of a `PluginID` also
means we could move node targetting into the shim RPC if wanted in the
future.
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.
This changeset implements the minimal structs on the client-side we
need to compile the work-in-progress implementation of the
server-to-controller RPCs. It doesn't include implementing the
`ClientCSI.DettachVolume` RPC on the client.
This commit introduces a new set of endpoints to a Nomad Client:
ClientCSI.
ClientCSI is responsible for mediating requests from a Nomad Server to
a CSI Plugin running on a Nomad Client. It should only really be used to
make controller RPCs.
Adds new package that can be used by client and server RPC endpoints to
facilitate monitoring based off of a logger

use new multisink logger and interfaces
small test for dropped messages
update go-hclogger and update sink/intercept logger interfaces
This is an attempt to ease dependency management for external driver
plugins, by avoiding requiring them to compile ugorji/go generated
files. Plugin developers reported some pain with the brittleness of
ugorji/go dependency in particular, specially when using go mod, the
default go mod manager in golang 1.13.
Context
--------
Nomad uses msgpack to persist and serialize internal structs, using
ugorji/go library. As an optimization, we use ugorji/go code generation
to speedup process and aovid the relection-based slow path.
We commit these generated files in repository when we cut and tag the
release to ease reproducability and debugging old releases. Thus,
downstream projects that depend on release tag, indirectly depends on
ugorji/go generated code.
Sadly, the generated code is brittle and specific to the version of
ugorji/go being used. When go mod picks another version of ugorji/go
then nomad (go mod by default uses release according to semver),
downstream projects face compilation errors.
Interestingly, downstream projects don't commonly serialize nomad
internal structs. Drivers and device plugins use grpc instead of
msgpack for the most part. In the few cases where they use msgpag (e.g.
decoding task config), they do without codegen path as they run on
driver specific structs not the nomad internal structs. Also, the
ugorji/go serialization through reflection is generally backward
compatible (mod some ugorji/go regression bugs that get introduced every
now and then :( ).
Proposal
---------
The proposal here is to keep committing ugorji/go codec generated files
for releases but to use a go tag for them.
All nomad development through the makefile, including releasing, CI and
dev flow, has the tag enabled.
Downstream plugin projects, by default, will skip these files and life
proceed as normal for them.
The downside is that nomad developers who use generated code but avoid
using make must start passing additional go tag argument. Though this
is not a blessed configuration.
