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:
```
=== RUN TestAllocDir_SkipAllocDir
alloc_dir_test.go:520:

Also removed unused Copy methods on AllocDir and TaskDir structs.
Thanks to @eveld for not letting me forget about this!
Before, Connect Native Tasks needed one of these to work:
- To be run in host networking mode
- To have the Consul agent configured to listen to a unix socket
- To have the Consul agent configured to listen to a public interface
None of these are a great experience, though running in host networking is
still the best solution for non-Linux hosts. This PR establishes a connection
proxy between the Consul HTTP listener and a unix socket inside the alloc fs,
bypassing the network namespace for any Connect Native task. Similar to and
re-uses a bunch of code from the gRPC listener version for envoy sidecar proxies.
Proxy is established only if the alloc is configured for bridge networking and
there is at least one Connect Native task in the Task Group.
