When a jobspec doesn't include a namespace, we provide it with the default
namespace, but this ends up overriding the explicit `-namespace` flag. This
changeset uses the same logic as region parsing to create an order of
precedence: the query string parameter (the `-namespace` flag) overrides the
API request body which overrides the jobspec.
This PR uses regex-based matching for sidecar proxy services and checks when syncing
with Consul. Previously we would check if the parent of the sidecar was still being
tracked in Nomad. This is a false invariant - one which we must not depend when we
make #10845 work.
Fixes#10843
The default agent configuration values were not set, which meant they were not
being set in the client configuration and this results in fingerprints failing
unless the values were set explicitly.
When a task group with `service` block(s) is validated, we validate that there
are no duplicates, but this validation doesn't have access to the task environment
because it hasn't been created yet. Services and checks with interpolation can
be flagged incorrectly as conflicting. Name conflicts in services are not
actually an error in Consul and users have reported wanting to use the same
service name for task groups differentiated by tags.
Alloc exec only works when task is passed as a flag and not an arg.
Alloc logs currently accepts either, but alloc signal and restart only
accept task as an arg. This adds -task as a flag to the other alloc
commands to make the cli UX consistent. If task is passed as a flag and
an arg, it ignores the arg.
This PR makes it so the Consul sync logic will ignore operations that
do not specify an action to take (i.e. [de-]register [services|checks]).
Ideally such noops would be discarded at the callsites (i.e. users
of [Create|Update|Remove]Workload], but we can also be defensive
at the commit point.
Also adds 2 trace logging statements which are helpful for diagnosing
sync operations with Consul - when they happen and why.
Fixes#10797
Updates to the datacenter field should be destructive for any allocation that
is on a node no longer in the list of datacenters, but inplace for any
allocation on a node that is still in the list. Add a check for this change to
the system and generic schedulers after we've checked the task definition for
updates and obtained the node for each current allocation.
This commit adds a serializer for the Agent. When the factory was originally
designed to have the Member properities directly on the Agent class which was
not set-up properly technically, but since we didn't really make use of the
Agent endpoint.
There are bits of logic in callers of RemoveWorkload on group/task
cleanup hooks which call RemoveWorkload with the "Canary" version
of the workload, in case the alloc is marked as a Canary. This logic
triggers an extra sync with Consul, and also doesn't do the intended
behavior - for which no special casing is necessary anyway. When the
workload is marked for removal, all associated services and checks
will be removed regardless of the Canary status, because the service
and check IDs do not incorporate the canary-ness in the first place.
The only place where canary-ness matters is when updating a workload,
where we need to compute the hash of the services and checks to determine
whether they have been modified, the Canary flag of which is a part of
that.
Fixes#10842
Adopts [`go-changelog`](https://github.com/hashicorp/go-changelog) for managing Nomad's changelog. `go-changelog` is becoming the HashiCorp defacto standard tool for managing changelog, e.g. [Consul](https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/pull/8387), [Vault](https://github.com/hashicorp/vault/pull/10363), [Waypoint](https://github.com/hashicorp/waypoint/pull/1179). [Consul](https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/pull/8387) seems to be the first product to adopt it, and its PR has the most context - though I've updated `.changelog/README.md` with the relevant info here.
## Changes to developers workflow
When opening PRs, developers should add a changelog entry in `.changelog/<PR#>.txt`. Check [`.changelog/README.md`](https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/blob/docs-adopt-gochangelog/.changelog/README.md#developer-guide).
For the WIP release, entries can be amended even after the PR merged, and new files may be added post-hoc (e.g. during transition period, missed accidentally, community PRs, etc).
### Transitioning
Pending PRs can start including the changelog entry files immediately.
For 1.1.3/1.0.9 cycle, the release coordinator should create the entries for any PR that gets merged without a changelog entry file. They should also move any 1.1.3 entry in CHANGELOG.md to a changelog entry file, as this PR done for GH-10818.
## Changes to release process
Before cutting a release, release coordinator should update the changelog by inserting the output of `make changelog` to CHANGELOG.md with appropriate headers. See [`.changelog/README.md`](https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/blob/docs-adopt-gochangelog/.changelog/README.md#how-to-generate-changelog-entries-for-release) for more details.
## Details
go-changelog is a basic templating engine for maintaining changelog in HashiCorp environment.
It expects the changelog entries as files indexed by their PR number. The CLI generates the changelog section for a release by comparing two git references (e.g. `HEAD` and the latest release, e.g. `v1.1.2`), and still requires manual process for updating CHANGELOG.md and final formatting.
The approach has many nice advantages:
* Avoids changelog related merge conflicts: Each PR touches different file!
* Copes with amendments and post-PR updates: Just add or update a changelog entry file using the original PR numbers.
* Addresses the release backporting scenario: Cherry-picking PRs will cherry-pick the relevant changelog entry automatically!
* Only relies on data available through `git` - no reliance on GitHub metadata or require GitHub credentials
The approach has few downsides though:
* CHANGELOG.md going stale during development and must be updated manually before cutting the release
* Repository watchers can no longer glance at the CHANGELOG.md to see upcoming changes
* We can periodically update the file, but `go-changelog` tool does not aid with that
* `go-changelog` tool does not offer good error reporting. If an entry is has an invalid tag (e.g. uses `release-note:bugfix` instead of `release-note:bug`), the entry will be dropped silently
* We should update go-changelog to warn against unexpected entry tags
* TODO: Meanwhile, PR reviewers and release coordinators should watch out
## Potential follow ups
We should follow up with CI checks to ensure PR changes include a warning. I've opted not to include that now. We still make many non-changelog-worth PRs for website/docs, for large features that get merged in multiple small PRs. I did not want to include a check that fails often.
Also, we should follow up to have `go-changelog` emit better warnings on unexpected tag.
recover
This code just seems incorrect. As it stands today it reports a
successful restore if RecoverTask fails and then DestroyTask succeeds.
This can result in a really annoying bug where it then calls RecoverTask
again, whereby it will probably get ErrTaskNotFound and call DestroyTask
once more.
I think the only reason this has not been noticed so far is because most
drivers like Docker will return Success, then nomad will call
RecoverTask, get an error (not found) and call DestroyTask again, and
get a ErrTasksNotFound err.
In Nomad 1.1.1 we generate a hosts file based on the Nomad-owned network
namespace, rather than using the default hosts file from the pause
container. This hosts file should be shared between tasks in the same
allocation so that tasks can update the file and have the results propagated
between tasks.
The `docker` driver's `port_map` field was deprecated in 0.12 and this is
documented in the task driver's docs, but we never explicitly flagged it for
backwards compatibility.
