This only works so long as we use simplistic protobuf types. Constructs such as oneof or Any types that require type annotations for decoding properly will fail hard but that is by design. If/when we want to use any of that we will probably need to consider a v2 API.
* Add JSON and Binary Marshaler Generators for Protobuf Types
* Generate files with the correct version of gogo/protobuf
I have pinned the version in the makefile so when you run make tools you get the right version. This pulls the version out of go.mod so it should remain up to date.
The version at the time of this commit we are using is v1.2.1
* Fixup some shell output
* Update how we determine the version of gogo
This just greps the go.mod file instead of expecting the go mod cache to already be present
* Fixup vendoring and remove no longer needed json encoder functions
* Add build system support for protobuf generation
This is done generically so that we don’t have to keep updating the makefile to add another proto generation.
Note: anything not in the vendor directory and with a .proto extension will be run through protoc if the corresponding namespace.pb.go file is not up to date.
If you want to rebuild just a single proto file you can do so with: make proto-rebuild PROTOFILES=<list of proto files to rebuild>
Providing the PROTOFILES var will override the default behavior of finding all the .proto files.
* Start adding types to the agent/proto package
These will be needed for some other work and are by no means comprehensive.
* Add ability to resolve/fixup the agentpb.ACLLinks structure in the state store.
* Use protobuf marshalling of raft requests instead of msgpack for protoc generated types.
This does not change any encoding of existing types.
* Removed structs package automatically encoding with protobuf marshalling
Instead the caller of raftApply that wants to opt-in to protobuf encoding will have to call `raftApplyProtobuf`
* Run update-vendor to fixup modules.txt
Nothing changed as far as dependencies go but the ordering of modules in that file depends on the time they are first seen and its not alphabetical.
* Rename some things and implement the structs.RPCInfo interface bits
agentpb.QueryOptions and agentpb.WriteRequest implement 3 of the 4 RPCInfo funcs and the new TargetDatacenter message type implements the fourth.
* Use the right encoding function.
* Renamed agent/proto package to agent/agentpb to prevent package name conflicts
* Update modules.txt to fix ordering
* Change blockingQuery to take in interfaces for the query options and meta
* Add %T to error output.
* Add/Update some comments
* Implement the test-docker make target
Running tests within docker allows us to resource constrain them better to not take over our systems. Additionally it allows us to run the tests on linux instead of the host OS which often times is macOS.
* Use GOMAXPROCS instead of -p
* Add a comment about docker cpus
* Add support for HTTP proxy listeners
* Add customizable bootstrap configuration options
* Debug logging for xDS AuthZ
* Add Envoy Integration test suite with basic test coverage
* Add envoy command tests to cover new cases
* Add tracing integration test
* Add gRPC support WIP
* Merged changes from master Docker. get CI integration to work with same Dockerfile now
* Make docker build optional for integration
* Enable integration tests again!
* http2 and grpc integration tests and fixes
* Fix up command config tests
* Store all container logs as artifacts in circle on fail
* Add retries to outer part of stats measurements as we keep missing them in CI
* Only dump logs on failing cases
* Fix typos from code review
* Review tidying and make tests pass again
* Add debug logs to exec test.
* Fix legit test failure caused by upstream rename in envoy config
* Attempt to reduce cases of bad TLS handshake in CI integration tests
* bring up the right service
* Add prometheus integration test
* Add test for denied AuthZ both HTTP and TCP
* Try ANSI term for Circle
* Move the watch package into the api module
It was already just a thin wrapper around the API anyways. The biggest change was to the testing. Instead of using a test agent directly from the agent package it now uses the binary on the PATH just like the other API tests.
The other big changes were to fix up the connect based watch tests so that we didn’t need to pull in the connect package (and therefore all of Consul)
* Docker based builds can now use the module cache
* Simplify building the consul-dev docker image.
* Make sure to pull the latest consul image.
* Allow selecting base image version for the dev image
* build: use only version tags in version output now api is tagged too
Fixes#5621
Since we now have api package tags, our build tooling was picking up api tag when working out version to bake into builds.
This fixes it by restricting to only tags that start with `v`.

* Update GNUmakefile
This adds the `agent/connect/ca/plugin` library for consuming/serving Connect CA providers as [go-plugin](https://github.com/hashicorp/go-plugin) plugins. This **does not** wire this up in any way to Consul itself, so this will not enable using these plugins yet.
## Why?
We want to enable CA providers to be pluggable without modifying Consul so that any CA or PKI system can potentially back the Connect certificates. This CA system may also be used in the future for easier bootstrapping and internal cluster security.
### go-plugin
The benefit of `go-plugin` is that for the plugin consumer, the fact that the interface implementation is communicating over multi-process RPC is invisible. Internals of Consul will continue to just use `ca.Provider` interface implementations as if they're local. For plugin _authors_, they simply have to implement the interface. The network/transport/process management issues are handled by go-plugin itself.
The CA provider plugins support both `net/rpc` and gRPC transports. This enables easy authoring in any language. go-plugin handles the actual protocol handshake and connection. This is just a feature of go-plugin.
`go-plugin` is already in production use for years by Packer, Terraform, Nomad, Vault, and Sentinel. We've shown stability for both desktop and server-side software. It is very mature.
## Implementation Details
### `map[string]interface{}`
The `Configure` method passes a `map[string]interface{}`. This map contains only Go primitives and containers of primitives (no funcs, chans, etc.). For `net/rpc` we encode as-is using Gob. For gRPC we marshal to JSON and transmit as a `bytes` type. This is the same approach we take with Vault and other software.
Note that this is just the transport protocol, the end software views it fully decoded.
### `x509.Certificate` and `CertificateRequest`
We transmit the raw ASN.1 bytes and decode on the other side. Unit tests are verifying we get the same cert/csrs across the wire.
### Testing
`go-plugin` exposes test helpers that enable testing the full plugin RPC over real loopback network connections. We test all endpoints for success and error for both `net/rpc` and gRPC.
### Vendoring
This PR doesn't introduce vendoring for two reasons:
1. @banks's `f-envoy` branch introduces a lot of these and I didn't want conflict.
2. The library isn't actually used yet so it doesn't introduce compile-time errors (it does introduce test errors).
## Next Steps
With this in place, we need to figure out the proper way to actually hook these up to Consul, load them, etc. This discussion can happen elsewhere, since regardless of approach this plugin library implementation is the exact same.
This PR is almost a complete rewrite of the ACL system within Consul. It brings the features more in line with other HashiCorp products. Obviously there is quite a bit left to do here but most of it is related docs, testing and finishing the last few commands in the CLI. I will update the PR description and check off the todos as I finish them over the next few days/week.
Description
At a high level this PR is mainly to split ACL tokens from Policies and to split the concepts of Authorization from Identities. A lot of this PR is mostly just to support CRUD operations on ACLTokens and ACLPolicies. These in and of themselves are not particularly interesting. The bigger conceptual changes are in how tokens get resolved, how backwards compatibility is handled and the separation of policy from identity which could lead the way to allowing for alternative identity providers.
On the surface and with a new cluster the ACL system will look very similar to that of Nomads. Both have tokens and policies. Both have local tokens. The ACL management APIs for both are very similar. I even ripped off Nomad's ACL bootstrap resetting procedure. There are a few key differences though.
Nomad requires token and policy replication where Consul only requires policy replication with token replication being opt-in. In Consul local tokens only work with token replication being enabled though.
All policies in Nomad are globally applicable. In Consul all policies are stored and replicated globally but can be scoped to a subset of the datacenters. This allows for more granular access management.
Unlike Nomad, Consul has legacy baggage in the form of the original ACL system. The ramifications of this are:
A server running the new system must still support other clients using the legacy system.
A client running the new system must be able to use the legacy RPCs when the servers in its datacenter are running the legacy system.
The primary ACL DC's servers running in legacy mode needs to be a gate that keeps everything else in the entire multi-DC cluster running in legacy mode.
So not only does this PR implement the new ACL system but has a legacy mode built in for when the cluster isn't ready for new ACLs. Also detecting that new ACLs can be used is automatic and requires no configuration on the part of administrators. This process is detailed more in the "Transitioning from Legacy to New ACL Mode" section below.
* Add function to wait for serfHealth in api tests
* Disable connect when creating semaphore test clients
* Wait for serfHealth when creating sessions in their tests
* Add helper functions to create lock/semaphore sessions without checks
* Log passing tests to prevent timeout in Travis due to lack of output
- Improve resilience of testrpc.WaitForLeader()
- Add additionall retry to CI
- Increase "go test" timeout to 8m
- Add wait for cluster leader to several tests in the agent package
- Add retry to some tests in the api and command packages
Improvements:
- More modular
- Building within docker doesn’t use volumes so can be run on a remote docker host
- Build containers include only minimal context so they only rarely need to be rebuilt and most of the time can be used from the cache.
- 3 build containers instead of 1. One based off of the upstream golang containers for building go stuff with all our required GOTOOLS installed. One like the old container based off ubuntu bionic for building the old UI (didn’t bother creating a much better container as this shouldn’t be needed once we completely remove the legacy UI). One for building the new UI. Its alpine based with all the node, ember, yarn stuff installed.
- Top level makefile has the ability to do a container based build without running make dist
- Can build for arbitrary platforms at the top level using: make consul-docker XC_OS=… XC_ARCH=…
- overridable functionality to allow for customizations to the enterprise build (like to generate multiple binaries)
- unified how we compile our go. always use gox even for dev-builds or rather always use the tooling around our scripts which will make sure things get copied to the correct places throughout the filesystem.
