When a Nomad agent starts and loads jobs that already existed in the
cluster, the default template uid and gid was being set to 0, since this
is the zero value for int. This caused these jobs to fail in
environments where it was not possible to use 0, such as in Windows
clients.
In order to differentiate between an explicit 0 and a template where
these properties were not set we need to use a pointer.
UID/GID 0 is usually reserved for the root user/group. While Nomad
clients are expected to run as root it may not always be the case.
Setting these values as -1 if not defined will fallback to the pervious
behaviour of not attempting to set file ownership and use whatever
UID/GID the Nomad agent is running as. It will also keep backwards
compatibility, which is specially important for platforms where this
feature is not supported, like Windows.
state store: call-out to generic update of job recommendations from job update method
recommendations API work, and http endpoint errors for OSS
support for scaling polices in task block of job spec
add query filters for ScalingPolicy list endpoint
command: nomad scaling policy list: added -job and -type
This eases adoption of the jobspec package by other projects (e.g. terraform nomad provider, Lavant). Either by consuming directy as a library (hopefully without having go mod import rest of nomad) or by copying the package without modification.
Ideally, this package will be published as an independent module. We aren't ready for that considering we'll be switching to HCLv2 "soon", but eitherway, this seems like a reasonable intermediate step if we choose to.
Before, the submitted jobspec for sidecar_task would pass
through 2 key validation steps - once for the subset specific
to connect sidecar task definitions, and once again for the set
of normal task definition where the task would actually get
unmarshalled.
The valid keys for the normal task definition did not include
"name", which is supposed to be configurable for the sidecar
task. To fix this, just eliminate the double validation step,
and instead pass-in the correct set of keys to validate against
to the one generic task parser.

This changeset implements the initial registration and fingerprinting
of CSI Plugins as part of #5378. At a high level, it introduces the
following:
* A `csi_plugin` stanza as part of a Nomad task configuration, to
allow a task to expose that it is a plugin.
* A new task runner hook: `csi_plugin_supervisor`. This hook does two
things. When the `csi_plugin` stanza is detected, it will
automatically configure the plugin task to receive bidirectional
mounts to the CSI intermediary directory. At runtime, it will then
perform an initial heartbeat of the plugin and handle submitting it to
the new `dynamicplugins.Registry` for further use by the client, and
then run a lightweight heartbeat loop that will emit task events
when health changes.
* The `dynamicplugins.Registry` for handling plugins that run
as Nomad tasks, in contrast to the existing catalog that requires
`go-plugin` type plugins and to know the plugin configuration in
advance.
* The `csimanager` which fingerprints CSI plugins, in a similar way to
`drivermanager` and `devicemanager`. It currently only fingerprints
the NodeID from the plugin, and assumes that all plugins are
monolithic.
Missing features
* We do not use the live updates of the `dynamicplugin` registry in
the `csimanager` yet.
* We do not deregister the plugins from the client when they shutdown
yet, they just become indefinitely marked as unhealthy. This is
deliberate until we figure out how we should manage deploying new
versions of plugins/transitioning them.
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.
* jobspec: breakup parse.go into smaller files
* add sidecar_task parsing to jobspec and api
* jobspec: combine service parsing logic for task and group service stanzas
* api: use slice of ConsulUpstream values instead of pointers
