The rationale behind removing them is that all of our own code (xDS, builtin connect proxy) use the cache notification mechanism. This ensures that the blocking fetch behind the scenes is always executing. Therefore the only way you might go to get a certificate and have to wait is when 1) the request has never been made for that cert before or 2) you are using the v1/agent/connect/ca/leaf API for retrieving the cert yourself.
In the first case, the refresh change doesn’t alter the behavior. In the second case, it can be mitigated by using blocking queries with that API which just like normal cache notification mechanism will cause the blocking fetch to be initiated and to get leaf certs as soon as needed.
If you are not using blocking queries, or Envoy/xDS, or the builtin connect proxy but are retrieving the certs yourself then the HTTP endpoint might take a little longer to respond.
This also renames the RefreshTimeout field on the register options to QueryTimeout to more accurately reflect that it is used for any type that supports blocking queries.

The fallback method would still work but it would get into a state where it would let the certificate expire for 10s before getting a new one. And the new one used the less secure RPC endpoint.
This is also a pretty large refactoring of the auto encrypt code. I was going to write some tests around the certificate monitoring but it was going to be impossible to get a TestAgent configured in such a way that I could write a test that ran in less than an hour or two to exercise the functionality.
Moving the certificate monitoring into its own package will allow for dependency injection and in particular mocking the cache types to control how it hands back certificates and how long those certificates should live. This will allow for exercising the main loop more than would be possible with it coupled so tightly with the Agent.

This is instead of having the AutoConfigBackend interface provide functions for retrieving them.
NOTE: the config is not reloadable. For now this is fine as we don’t look at any reloadable fields. If that changes then we should provide a way to make it reloadable.
Instead it has an interface which can be mocked for better unit testing that is deterministic and not prone to flakiness.

A port can be sent in the Host header as defined in the HTTP RFC, so we
take any hosts that we want to match traffic to and also add another
host with the listener port added.
Also fix an issue with envoy integration tests not running the
case-ingress-gateway-tls test.
Split up unused key validation in config entry decode for oss/ent.
This is needed so that we can return an informative error in OSS if namespaces are provided.
This will allow to increase cache value when DC is not valid (aka
return SOA to avoid too many consecutive requests) and will
distinguish DC being temporarily not available from DC not existing.
Implements https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/8102
On the servers they must have a certificate.
On the clients they just have to set verify_outgoing to true to attempt TLS connections for RPCs.
Eventually we may relax these restrictions but right now all of the settings we push down (acl tokens, acl related settings, certificates, gossip key) are sensitive and shouldn’t be transmitted over an unencrypted connection. Our guides and docs should recoommend verify_server_hostname on the clients as well.
Another reason to do this is weird things happen when making an insecure RPC when TLS is not enabled. Basically it tries TLS anyways. We should probably fix that to make it clearer what is going on.
The envisioned changes would allow extra settings to enable dynamically defined auth methods to be used instead of or in addition to the statically defined one in the configuration.
While upgrading servers to a new version, I saw that metadata of
existing servers are not upgraded, so the version and raft meta
is not up to date in catalog.
The only way to do it was to:
* update Consul server
* make it leave the cluster, then metadata is accurate
That's because the optimization to avoid updating catalog does
not take into account metadata, so no update on catalog is performed.
A Node Identity is very similar to a service identity. Its main targeted use is to allow creating tokens for use by Consul agents that will grant the necessary permissions for all the typical agent operations (node registration, coordinate updates, anti-entropy).
Half of this commit is for golden file based tests of the acl token and role cli output. Another big updates was to refactor many of the tests in agent/consul/acl_endpoint_test.go to use the same style of tests and the same helpers. Besides being less boiler plate in the tests it also uses a common way of starting a test server with ACLs that should operate without any warnings regarding deprecated non-uuid master tokens etc.
Blocking queries issues will still be uncancellable (that cannot be helped until we get rid of net/rpc). However this makes it so that if calling getWithIndex (like during a cache Notify go routine) we can cancell the outer routine. Previously it would keep issuing more blocking queries until the result state actually changed.

Currently when passing hostname clusters to Envoy, we set each service instance registered with Consul as an LbEndpoint for the cluster.
However, Envoy can only handle one per cluster:
[2020-06-04 18:32:34.094][1][warning][config] [source/common/config/grpc_subscription_impl.cc:87] gRPC config for type.googleapis.com/envoy.api.v2.Cluster rejected: Error adding/updating cluster(s) dc2.internal.ddd90499-9b47-91c5-4616-c0cbf0fc358a.consul: LOGICAL_DNS clusters must have a single locality_lb_endpoint and a single lb_endpoint, server.dc2.consul: LOGICAL_DNS clusters must have a single locality_lb_endpoint and a single lb_endpoint
Envoy is currently handling this gracefully by only picking one of the endpoints. However, we should avoid passing multiple to avoid these warning logs.
This PR:
* Ensures we only pass one endpoint, which is tied to one service instance.
* We prefer sending an endpoint which is marked as Healthy by Consul.
* If no endpoints are healthy we emit a warning and skip the cluster.
* If multiple unique hostnames are spread across service instances we emit a warning and let the user know which will be resolved.
In discussion with team, it was pointed out that query parameters tend
to be filter mechanism, and that semantically the "/v1/health/connect"
endpoint should return "all healthy connect-enabled endpoints (e.g.
could be side car proxies or native instances) for this service so I can
connect with mTLS".
That does not fit an ingress gateway, so we remove the query parameter
and add a new endpoint "/v1/health/ingress" that semantically means
"all the healthy ingress gateway instances that I can connect to
to access this connect-enabled service without mTLS"
This allows the operator to disable agent caching for the http endpoint.
It is on by default for backwards compatibility and if disabled will
ignore the url parameter `cached`.
Previously, we did not require the 'service-name.*' host header value
when on a single http service was exposed. However, this allows a user
to get into a situation where, if they add another service to the
listener, suddenly the previous service's traffic might not be routed
correctly. Thus, we always require the Host header, even if there is
only 1 service.
Also, we add the make the default domain matching more restrictive by
matching "service-name.ingress.*" by default. This lines up better with
the namespace case and more accurately matches the Consul DNS value we
expect people to use in this case.
In current implementation of Consul, check alias cannot determine
if a service exists or not. Because a service without any check
is semantically considered as passing, so when no healthchecks
are found for an agent, the check was considered as passing.
But this make little sense as the current implementation does not
make any difference between:
* a non-existing service (passing)
* a service without any check (passing as well)
In order to make it work, we have to ensure that when a check did
not find any healthcheck, the service does indeed exists. If it
does not, lets consider the check as failing.
The DNS resolution will be handled by Envoy and defaults to LOGICAL_DNS. This discovery type can be overridden on a per-gateway basis with the envoy_dns_discovery_type Gateway Option.
If a service contains an instance with a hostname as an address we set the Envoy cluster to use DNS as the discovery type rather than EDS. Since both mesh gateways and terminating gateways route to clusters using SNI, whenever there is a mix of hostnames and IP addresses associated with a service we use the hostname + CDS rather than the IPs + EDS.
Note that we detect hostnames by attempting to parse the service instance's address as an IP. If it is not a valid IP we assume it is a hostname.
The ACL.GetPolicy RPC endpoint was supposed to return the “parent” policy and not always the default policy. In the case of legacy management tokens the parent policy was supposed to be “manage”. The result of us not sending this properly was that operations that required specifically a management token such as saving a snapshot would not work in secondary DCs until they were upgraded.
Three of the checks are temporarily disabled to limit the size of the
diff, and allow us to enable all the other checks in CI.
In a follow up we can fix the issues reported by the other checks one
at a time, and enable them.
Based on work done in https://github.com/hashicorp/memberlist/pull/196
this allows to restrict the IP ranges that can join a given Serf cluster
and be a member of the cluster.
Restrictions on IPs can be done separatly using 2 new differents flags
and config options to restrict IPs for LAN and WAN Serf.
The main fix here is to always union the `primary-gateways` list with
the list of mesh gateways in the primary returned from the replicated
federation states list. This will allow any replicated (incorrect) state
to be supplemented with user-configured (correct) state in the config
file. Eventually the game of random selection whack-a-mole will pick a
winning entry and re-replicate the latest federation states from the
primary. If the user-configured state is actually the incorrect one,
then the same eventual correct selection process will work in that case,
too.
The secondary fix is actually to finish making wanfed-via-mgws actually
work as originally designed. Once a secondary datacenter has replicated
federation states for the primary AND managed to stand up its own local
mesh gateways then all of the RPCs from a secondary to the primary
SHOULD go through two sets of mesh gateways to arrive in the consul
servers in the primary (one hop for the secondary datacenter's mesh
gateway, and one hop through the primary datacenter's mesh gateway).
This was neglected in the initial implementation. While everything
works, ideally we should treat communications that go around the mesh
gateways as just provided for bootstrapping purposes.
Now we heuristically use the success/failure history of the federation
state replicator goroutine loop to determine if our current mesh gateway
route is working as intended. If it is, we try using the local gateways,
and if those don't work we fall back on trying the primary via the union
of the replicated state and the go-discover configuration flags.
This can be improved slightly in the future by possibly initializing the
gateway choice to local on startup if we already have replicated state.
This PR does not address that improvement.
Fixes#7339
Currently checks of type gRPC will emit log messages such as,
2020/02/12 13:48:22 [INFO] parsed scheme: ""
2020/02/12 13:48:22 [INFO] scheme "" not registered, fallback to default scheme
Without adding full support for using custom gRPC schemes (maybe that's
right long-term path) we can just supply the default scheme as provided
by the grpc library.

and https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/issues/7415
* Standardize support for Tagged and BindAddresses in Ingress Gateways
This updates the TaggedAddresses and BindAddresses behavior for Ingress
to match Mesh/Terminating gateways. The `consul connect envoy` command
now also allows passing an address without a port for tagged/bind
addresses.

Previously this happened to be using the method on the Server/Client that was meant to allow the ACLResolver to locally resolve tokens. On Servers that had tokens (primary or secondary dc + token replication) this function would lookup the token from raft and return the ACLIdentity. On clients this was always a noop. We inadvertently used this function instead of creating a new one when we added logging accessor ids for permission denied RPC requests.
With this commit, a new method is used for resolving the identity properly via the ACLResolver which may still resolve locally in the case of being on a server with tokens but also supports remote token resolution.
* Return early from updateGatewayServices if nothing to update
Previously, we returned an empty slice of gatewayServices, which caused
us to accidentally delete everything in the memdb table
* PR comment and better formatting
