Previously we believe it was necessary for all code that required ports
to use freeport to prevent conflicts.
https://github.com/dnephin/freeport-test shows that it is actually save
to use port 0 (`127.0.0.1:0`) as long as it is passed directly to
`net.Listen`, and the listener holds the port for as long as it is
needed.
This works because freeport explicitly avoids the ephemeral port range,
and port 0 always uses that range. As you can see from the test output
of https://github.com/dnephin/freeport-test, the two systems never use
overlapping ports.
This commit converts all uses of freeport that were being passed
directly to a net.Listen to use port 0 instead. This allows us to remove
a bit of wrapping we had around httptest, in a couple places.
1) xds and grpc servers:
1.1) to use recovery middleware with callback that prints stack trace to log
1.2) callback turn the panic into a core.Internal error
2) added unit test for grpc server
We have seen test flakes caused by 'concurrent map read and map write', and the race detector
reports the problem as well (prevent us from running some tests with -race).
The root of the problem is the grpc expects resolvers to be registered at init time
before any requests are made, but we were using a separate resolver for each test.
This commit introduces a resolver registry. The registry is registered as the single
resolver for the consul scheme. Each test uses the Authority section of the target
(instead of the scheme) to identify the resolver that should be used for the test.
The scheme is used for lookup, which is why it can no longer be used as the unique
key.
This allows us to use a lock around the map of resolvers, preventing the data race.
Occasionally this test would flake. The flakes were fixed by:
1. Stopping the service and retrying to check on metrics. This way we
also include the active_streams going to 0 in the metric calls.
2. Using a reference to the global Metrics. This way when other tests
have background goroutines that are still shutting down, they won't
emit metrics to the metric instance with the fake Sink. The stats
test can patch the local reference to the global, so the existing
statHandlers will continue to emit to the global, but the stats
test will send all metrics to the replacement.
