This fixes few cases where driver eventor goroutines are leaked during
normal operations, but especially so in tests.
This change makes few modifications:
First, it switches drivers to use `Context`s to manage shutdown events.
Previously, it relied on callers invoking `.Shutdown()` function that is
specific to internal drivers only and require casting. Using `Contexts`
provide a consistent idiomatic way to manage lifecycle for both internal
and external drivers.
Also, I discovered few places where we don't clean up a temporary driver
instance in the plugin catalog code, where we dispense a driver to
inspect and validate the schema config without properly cleaning it up.
When an allocation runs for a task driver that can't support volume mounts,
the mounting will fail in a way that can be hard to understand. With host
volumes this usually means failing silently, whereas with CSI the operator
gets inscrutable internals exposed in the `nomad alloc status`.
This changeset adds a MountConfig field to the task driver Capabilities
response. We validate this when the `csi_hook` or `volume_hook` fires and
return a user-friendly error.
Note that we don't currently have a way to get driver capabilities up to the
server, except through attributes. Validating this when the user initially
submits the jobspec would be even better than what we're doing here (and could
be useful for all our other capabilities), but that's out of scope for this
changeset.
Also note that the MountConfig enum starts with "supports all" in order to
support community plugins in a backwards compatible way, rather than cutting
them off from volume mounting unexpectedly.
Operators commonly have docker logs aggregated using various tools and
don't need nomad to manage their docker logs. Worse, Nomad uses a
somewhat heavy docker api call to collect them and it seems to cause
problems when a client runs hundreds of log collections.
Here we add a knob to disable log aggregation completely for nomad.
When log collection is disabled, we avoid running logmon and
docker_logger for the docker tasks in this implementation.
The downside here is once disabled, `nomad logs ...` commands and API
no longer return logs and operators must corrolate alloc-ids with their
aggregated log info.
This is meant as a stop gap measure. Ideally, we'd follow up with at
least two changes:
First, we should optimize behavior when we can such that operators don't
need to disable docker log collection. Potentially by reverting to
using pre-0.9 syslog aggregation in linux environments, though with
different trade-offs.
Second, when/if logs are disabled, nomad logs endpoints should lookup
docker logs api on demand. This ensures that the cost of log collection
is paid sparingly.
This commit introduces support for configuring mount propagation when
mounting volumes with the `volume_mount` stanza on Linux targets.
Similar to Kubernetes, we expose 3 options for configuring mount
propagation:
- private, which is equivalent to `rprivate` on Linux, which does not allow the
container to see any new nested mounts after the chroot was created.
- host-to-task, which is equivalent to `rslave` on Linux, which allows new mounts
that have been created _outside of the container_ to be visible
inside the container after the chroot is created.
- bidirectional, which is equivalent to `rshared` on Linux, which allows both
the container to see new mounts created on the host, but
importantly _allows the container to create mounts that are
visible in other containers an don the host_
private and host-to-task are safe, but bidirectional mounts can be
dangerous, as if the code inside a container creates a mount, and does
not clean it up before tearing down the container, it can cause bad
things to happen inside the kernel.
To add a layer of safety here, we require that the user has ReadWrite
permissions on the volume before allowing bidirectional mounts, as a
defense in depth / validation case, although creating mounts should also require
a priviliged execution environment inside the container.
Adds a new Prerun and Postrun hooks to manage set up of network namespaces
on linux. Work still needs to be done to make the code platform agnostic and
support Docker style network initalization.
In this commit, we add two driver interfaces for supporting `nomad exec`
invocation:
* A high level `ExecTaskStreamingDriver`, that operates on io reader/writers.
Drivers should prefer using this interface
* A low level `ExecTaskStreamingRawDriver` that operates on the raw stream of
input structs; useful when a driver delegates handling to driver backend (e.g.
across RPC/grpc).
The interfaces are optional for a driver, as `nomad exec` support is opt-in.
Existing drivers continue to compile without exec support, until their
maintainer add such support.
Furthermore, we create protobuf structures to represent exec stream entities:
`ExecTaskStreamingRequest` and `ExecTaskStreamingResponse`. We aim to reuse the
protobuf generated code as much as possible, without translation to avoid
conversion overhead.
`ExecTaskStream` abstract fetching and sending stream entities. It's influenced
by the grpc bi-directional stream interface, to avoid needing any adapter. I
considered using channels, but the asynchronisity and concurrency makes buffer
reuse too complicated, which would put more pressure on GC and slows exec operation.
plugins/driver: update driver interface to support streaming stats
client/tr: use streaming stats api
TODO:
* how to handle errors and closed channel during stats streaming
* prevent tight loop if Stats(ctx) returns an error
drivers: update drivers TaskStats RPC to handle streaming results
executor: better error handling in stats rpc
docker: better control and error handling of stats rpc
driver: allow stats to return a recoverable error
Re-export the ResourceUsage structs in drivers package to avoid drivers
directly depending on the internal client/structs package directly.
I attempted moving the structs to drivers, but that caused some import
cycles that was a bit hard to disentagle. Alternatively, I added an
alias here that's sufficient for our purposes of avoiding external
drivers depend on internal packages, while allowing us to restructure
packages in future without breaking source compatibility.
This PR introduces a device hook that retrieves the device mount
information for an allocation. It also updates the computed node class
computation to take into account devices.
TODO Fix the task runner unit test. The environment variable is being
lost even though it is being properly set in the prestart hook.
This PR plumbs the plugins done ctx through the base and driver plugin
clients (device already had it). Further, it adds generic handling of
gRPC stream errors.
Driver plugin framework to facilitate development of driver plugins.
Implementing plugins only need to implement the DriverPlugin interface.
The framework proxies this interface to the go-plugin GRPC interface generated
from the driver.proto spec.
A testing harness is provided to allow implementing drivers to test the full
lifecycle of the driver plugin. An example use:
func TestMyDriver(t *testing.T) {
harness := NewDriverHarness(t, &MyDiverPlugin{})
// The harness implements the DriverPlugin interface and can be used as such
taskHandle, err := harness.StartTask(...)
}
