* windows: revert process listing logic to that of v1.6.10
In Nomad 1.7 much of the process management code was refactored, including
a rewrite of how the process tree of an executor was determined on Windows
machines. Unfortunately that rewrite has been cursed with performance issues
and bugs. Instead, revert to the logic used in v1.6.10.
* changelog
In #20619 we overhauled how we were gathering stats for Windows
processes. Unlike in Linux where we can ask for processes in a cgroup, on
Windows we have to make a single expensive syscall to get all the processes and
then build the tree ourselves. Our algorithm to do so is recursive and quadratic
in both steps and space with the number of processes on the host. For busy hosts
this hits the stack limit and panics the Nomad client.
We already build a map of parent PID to PID, so modify this to be a map of
parent PID to slice of children and then traverse that tree only from the root
we care about (the executor PID). This moves the allocations to the heap but
makes the stats gathering linear in steps and space required.
This changeset also moves as much of this code as possible into an area
not conditionally-compiled by OS, as the tagged test file was not being run in CI.
Fixes: https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/issues/23984
No functional changes, just cleaning up deprecated usages that are
removed in v2 and replace one call of .Slice with .ForEach to avoid
making the intermediate copy.
* drivers: plumb hardware topology via grpc into drivers
This PR swaps out the temporary use of detecting system hardware manually
in each driver for using the Client's detected topology by plumbing the
data over gRPC. This ensures that Client configuration is taken to account
consistently in all references to system topology.
* cr: use enum instead of bool for core grade
* cr: fix test slit tables to be possible
* client: refactor cpuset partitioning
This PR updates the way Nomad client manages the split between tasks
that make use of resources.cpus vs. resources.cores.
Previously, each task was explicitly assigned which CPU cores they were
able to run on. Every time a task was started or destroyed, all other
tasks' cpusets would need to be updated. This was inefficient and would
crush the Linux kernel when a client would try to run ~400 or so tasks.
Now, we make use of cgroup heirarchy and cpuset inheritence to efficiently
manage cpusets.
