Nomad inherited protocol version numbering configuration from Consul and
Serf, but unlike those projects Nomad has never used it. Nomad's
`protocol_version` has always been `1`.
While the code is effectively unused and therefore poses no runtime
risks to leave, I felt like removing it was best because:
1. Nomad's RPC subsystem has been able to evolve extensively without
needing to increment the version number.
2. Nomad's HTTP API has evolved extensively without increment
`API{Major,Minor}Version`. If we want to version the HTTP API in the
future, I doubt this is the mechanism we would choose.
3. The presence of the `server.protocol_version` configuration
parameter is confusing since `server.raft_protocol` *is* an important
parameter for operators to consider. Even more confusing is that
there is a distinct Serf protocol version which is included in `nomad
server members` output under the heading `Protocol`. `raft_protocol`
is the *only* protocol version relevant to Nomad developers and
operators. The other protocol versions are either deadcode or have
never changed (Serf).
4. If we were to need to version the RPC, HTTP API, or Serf protocols, I
don't think these configuration parameters and variables are the best
choice. If we come to that point we should choose a versioning scheme
based on the use case and modern best practices -- not this 6+ year
old dead code.
These API endpoints now return results in chronological order. They
can return results in reverse chronological order by setting the
query parameter ascending=true.
- Eval.List
- Deployment.List
Update the logic in the Nomad client's alloc health tracker which
erroneously marks existing healthy allocations with dead poststart ephemeral
tasks as unhealthy even if they were already successful during a previous
deployment.
The Plan.Submit endpoint assumed PlanRequest.Plan was never nil. While
there is no evidence it ever has been nil, we should not panic if a nil
plan is ever submitted because that would crash the leader.
This PR exposes the following existing`consul-template` configuration options to Nomad jobspec authors in the `{job.group.task.template}` stanza.
- `wait`
It also exposes the following`consul-template` configuration to Nomad operators in the `{client.template}` stanza.
- `max_stale`
- `block_query_wait`
- `consul_retry`
- `vault_retry`
- `wait`
Finally, it adds the following new Nomad-specific configuration to the `{client.template}` stanza that allows Operators to set bounds on what `jobspec` authors configure.
- `wait_bounds`

Some operators use very long group/task `shutdown_delay` settings to
safely drain network connections to their workloads after service
deregistration. But during incident response, they may want to cause
that drain to be skipped so they can quickly shed load.
Provide a `-no-shutdown-delay` flag on the `nomad alloc stop` and
`nomad job stop` commands that bypasses the delay. This sets a new
desired transition state on the affected allocations that the
allocation/task runner will identify during pre-kill on the client.
Note (as documented here) that using this flag will almost always
result in failed inbound network connections for workloads as the
tasks will exit before clients receive updated service discovery
information and won't be gracefully drained.
API queries can request pagination using the `NextToken` and `PerPage`
fields of `QueryOptions`, when supported by the underlying API.
Add a `NextToken` field to the `structs.QueryMeta` so that we have a
common field across RPCs to tell the caller where to resume paging
from on their next API call. Include this field on the `api.QueryMeta`
as well so that it's available for future versions of List HTTP APIs
that wrap the response with `QueryMeta` rather than returning a simple
list of structs. In the meantime callers can get the `X-Nomad-NextToken`.
Add pagination to the `Eval.List` RPC by checking for pagination token
and page size in `QueryOptions`. This will allow resuming from the
last ID seen so long as the query parameters and the state store
itself are unchanged between requests.
Add filtering by job ID or evaluation status over the results we get
out of the state store.
Parse the query parameters of the `Eval.List` API into the arguments
expected for filtering in the RPC call.
During incident response, operators may find that automated processes
elsewhere in the organization can be generating new workloads on Nomad
clusters that are unable to handle the workload. This changeset adds a
field to the `SchedulerConfiguration` API that causes all job
registration calls to be rejected unless the request has a management
ACL token.
Give ourselves some room for extension in the UI configuration block
by naming the field `ui_url`, which will let us have an `api_url`.
Fix the template path to ensure we're getting the right value from the
API.
This change modifies the Nomad job register and deregister RPCs to
accept an updated option set which includes eval priority. This
param is optional and override the use of the job priority to set
the eval priority.
In order to ensure all evaluations as a result of the request use
the same eval priority, the priority is shared to the
allocReconciler and deploymentWatcher. This creates a new
distinction between eval priority and job priority.
The Nomad agent HTTP API has been modified to allow setting the
eval priority on job update and delete. To keep consistency with
the current v1 API, job update accepts this as a payload param;
job delete accepts this as a query param.
Any user supplied value is validated within the agent HTTP handler
removing the need to pass invalid requests to the server.
The register and deregister opts functions now all for setting
the eval priority on requests.
The change includes a small change to the DeregisterOpts function
which handles nil opts. This brings the function inline with the
RegisterOpts.
* api: return 404 for alloc FS list/stat endpoints
If the alloc filesystem doesn't have a file requested by the List
Files or Stat File API, we currently return a HTTP 500 error with the
expected "file not found" error message. Return a HTTP 404 error
instead.
* update FS Handler
Previously the FS handler would interpret a 500 status as a 404
in the adapter layer by checking if the response body contained
the text or is the response status
was 500 and then throw an error code for 404.

Fix a bug where the scheduler may panic when preemption is enabled. The conditions are a bit complicated:
A job with higher priority that schedule multiple allocations that preempt other multiple allocations on the same node, due to port/network/device assignments.
The cause of the bug is incidental mutation of internal cached data. `RankedNode` computes and cache proposed allocations in https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/blob/v1.1.6/scheduler/rank.go#L42-L53 . But scheduler then mutates the list to remove pre-emptable allocs in https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/blob/v1.1.6/scheduler/rank.go#L293-L294, and `RemoveAllocs` mutates and sets the tail of cached slice with `nil`s triggering a nil-pointer derefencing case.
I fixed the issue by avoiding the mutation in `RemoveAllocs` - the micro-optimization there doesn't seem necessary.
Fixes https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/issues/11342
Add a new hostname string parameter to the network block which
allows operators to specify the hostname of the network namespace.
Changing this causes a destructive update to the allocation and it
is omitted if empty from API responses. This parameter also supports
interpolation.
In order to have a hostname passed as a configuration param when
creating an allocation network, the CreateNetwork func of the
DriverNetworkManager interface needs to be updated. In order to
minimize the disruption of future changes, rather than add another
string func arg, the function now accepts a request struct along with
the allocID param. The struct has the hostname as a field.
The in-tree implementations of DriverNetworkManager.CreateNetwork
have been modified to account for the function signature change.
In updating for the change, the enhancement of adding hostnames to
network namespaces has also been added to the Docker driver, whilst
the default Linux manager does not current implement it.
When a node becomes ready, create an eval for all system jobs across
namespaces.
The previous code uses `job.ID` to deduplicate evals, but that ignores
the job namespace. Thus if there are multiple jobs in different
namespaces sharing the same ID/Name, only one will be considered for
running in the new node. Thus, Nomad may skip running some system jobs
in that node.
In a multi-task-group job, treat 0 canary groups as auto-promote.
This change fixes an edge case where Nomad requires a manual promotion,
if the job had any group with canary=0 and rest of groups having
auto_promote set.

This PR implements a new "System Batch" scheduler type. Jobs can
make use of this new scheduler by setting their type to 'sysbatch'.
Like the name implies, sysbatch can be thought of as a hybrid between
system and batch jobs - it is for running short lived jobs intended to
run on every compatible node in the cluster.
As with batch jobs, sysbatch jobs can also be periodic and/or parameterized
dispatch jobs. A sysbatch job is considered complete when it has been run
on all compatible nodes until reaching a terminal state (success or failed
on retries).
Feasibility and preemption are governed the same as with system jobs. In
this PR, the update stanza is not yet supported. The update stanza is sill
limited in functionality for the underlying system scheduler, and is
not useful yet for sysbatch jobs. Further work in #4740 will improve
support for the update stanza and deployments.
Closes#2527
