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.
Currently this assumes that a short write will never happen. While these
are improbable in a case where rotation being off a few bytes would
matter, this now correctly tracks the number of written bytes.
Currently this logging implementation is dependent on the order of files
as returned by filepath.Glob, which although internal methods are
documented to be lexographical, does not publicly document this. Here we
defensively resort.
Fix a bug where a millicious user can access or manipulate an alloc in a
namespace they don't have access to. The allocation endpoints perform
ACL checks against the request namespace, not the allocation namespace,
and performs the allocation lookup independently from namespaces.
Here, we check that the requested can access the alloc namespace
regardless of the declared request namespace.
Ideally, we'd enforce that the declared request namespace matches
the actual allocation namespace. Unfortunately, we haven't documented
alloc endpoints as namespaced functions; we suspect starting to enforce
this will be very disruptive and inappropriate for a nomad point
release. As such, we maintain current behavior that doesn't require
passing the proper namespace in request. A future major release may
start enforcing checking declared namespace.
This commit introduces a rotating file logger for Nomad Agent Logs. The
logger implementation itself is a lift and shift from Consul, with tests
updated to fit with the Nomad pattern of using require, and not having a
testutil for creating tempdirs cleanly.
Without a `LocalServicePort`, Connect services will try to use the
mapped port even when delivering traffic locally. A user can override
this behavior by pinning the port value in the `service` stanza but
this prevents us from using the Consul service name to reach the
service.
This commits configures the Consul proxy with its `LocalServicePort`
and `LocalServiceAddress` fields.
Currently when hitting the /v1/agent/self API with ACL Replication
enabled results in the token being returned in the API. This commit
redacts that information, as it should be treated as a shared secret.
Currently, using a Volume in a job uses the following configuration:
```
volume "alias-name" {
type = "volume-type"
read_only = true
config {
source = "host_volume_name"
}
}
```
This commit migrates to the following:
```
volume "alias-name" {
type = "volume-type"
source = "host_volume_name"
read_only = true
}
```
The original design was based due to being uncertain about the future of storage
plugins, and to allow maxium flexibility.
However, this causes a few issues, namely:
- We frequently need to parse this configuration during submission,
scheduling, and mounting
- It complicates the configuration from and end users perspective
- It complicates the ability to do validation
As we understand the problem space of CSI a little more, it has become
clear that we won't need the `source` to be in config, as it will be
used in the majority of cases:
- Host Volumes: Always need a source
- Preallocated CSI Volumes: Always needs a source from a volume or claim name
- Dynamic Persistent CSI Volumes*: Always needs a source to attach the volumes
to for managing upgrades and to avoid dangling.
- Dynamic Ephemeral CSI Volumes*: Less thought out, but `source` will probably point
to the plugin name, and a `config` block will
allow you to pass meta to the plugin. Or will
point to a pre-configured ephemeral config.
*If implemented
The new design simplifies this by merging the source into the volume
stanza to solve the above issues with usability, performance, and error
handling.
In Nomad prior to Consul Connect, all Consul checks work the same
except for Script checks. Because the Task being checked is running in
its own container namespaces, the check is executed by Nomad in the
Task's context. If the Script check passes, Nomad uses the TTL check
feature of Consul to update the check status. This means in order to
run a Script check, we need to know what Task to execute it in.
To support Consul Connect, we need Group Services, and these need to
be registered in Consul along with their checks. We could push the
Service down into the Task, but this doesn't work if someone wants to
associate a service with a task's ports, but do script checks in
another task in the allocation.
Because Nomad is handling the Script check and not Consul anyways,
this moves the script check handling into the task runner so that the
task runner can own the script check's configuration and
lifecycle. This will allow us to pass the group service check
configuration down into a task without associating the service itself
with the task.
When tasks are checked for script checks, we walk back through their
task group to see if there are script checks associated with the
task. If so, we'll spin off script check tasklets for them. The
group-level service and any restart behaviors it needs are entirely
encapsulated within the group service hook.
Consul registers Connect services automatically, however Nomad thinks it
owns them due to the _nomad prefix. Since the services are managed by
Consul, Nomad needs to explicitly ignore them or otherwies they will be
removed.
The dev mode flag for connect was binding to the default interface's
IP, but this makes for a bad user experience for the CLI which will
default to 127.0.0.1. If we bind to 0.0.0.0 instead the CLI will work
without further configuration by the user.
* adds meta object to service in job spec, sends it to consul
* adds tests for service meta
* fix tests
* adds docs
* better hashing for service meta, use helper for copying meta when registering service
* tried to be DRY, but looks like it would be more work to use the
helper function
Fixes#6041
Unlike all other Consul operations, boostrapping requires Consul be
available. This PR tries Consul 3 times with a backoff to account for
the group services being asynchronously registered with Consul.
Consul Connect must route traffic between network namespaces through a
public interface (i.e. not localhost). In order to support testing in
dev mode, users needed to manually set the interface which doesn't
make for a smooth experience.
This commit adds a facility for adding optional parameters to the
`nomad agent -dev` flag and uses it to add a `-dev=connect` flag that
binds to a public interface on the host.
