This ensures that token revocation is idempotent and can handle when
tokens are revoked out of band.
Idempotency is important to handle some transient failures and retries.
Consider when a single token of a batch fails to be revoked, nomad would
retry revoking the entire batch; tokens already revoked should be
gracefully handled, otherwise, nomad may retry revoking the same
tokens forever.
Fixes typo in word "failed".
Fixes bug where incorrect error is printed. The old code would only
ever print a nil error, instead of the validationErr which is being
created.
Vault 1.2.0 deprecated `period` field in favor of `token_period` in auth
role:
> * Token store roles use new, common token fields for the values
> that overlap with other auth backends. `period`, `explicit_max_ttl`, and
> `bound_cidrs` will continue to work, with priority being given to the
> `token_` prefixed versions of those parameters. They will also be returned
> when doing a read on the role if they were used to provide values initially;
> however, in Vault 1.4 if `period` or `explicit_max_ttl` is zero they will no
> longer be returned. (`explicit_max_ttl` was already not returned if empty.)

This seems to be the minimum viable patch for fixing a deadlock between
establishConnection and SetConfig.
SetConfig calls tomb.Kill+tomb.Wait while holding v.lock.
establishConnection needs to acquire v.lock to exit but SetConfig is
holding v.lock until tomb.Wait exits. tomb.Wait can't exit until
establishConnect does!
```
SetConfig -> tomb.Wait
^ |
| v
v.lock <- establishConnection
```
`currentExpiration` field is accessed in multiple goroutines: Stats and
renewal, so needs locking.
I don't anticipate high contention, so simple mutex suffices.
Keep attempting to renew Vault token past locally recorded expiry, just
in case the token was renewed out of band, e.g. on another Nomad server,
until Vault returns an unrecoverable error.
Seems like the stats field is a micro-optimization that doesn't justify
the complexity it introduces. Removing it and computing the stats from
revoking field directly.
Vault's RenewSelf(...) API may return (nil, nil). We failed to check if
secret was nil before attempting to use it.
RenewSelf:
e3eee5b4fb/api/auth_token.go (L138-L155)
Calls ParseSecret:
e3eee5b4fb/api/secret.go (L309-L311)
If anyone has an idea on how to test this I didn't see any options. We
use a real Vault service, so there's no opportunity to mock the
response.
This PR removes enforcement that the Vault token role disallows orphaned
tokens and recommends orphaned tokens to simplify the
bootstrapping/upgrading of Nomad clusters. The requirement that Nomad's
Vault token never expire and be shared by all instances of Nomad servers
is not operationally friendly.
The Vault API returns a nil secret and nil error when reading an object
that doesn't exist. The old code assumed an error would be returned and
thus will panic when trying to validate a non-existant role.
