Routing peering control plane traffic through mesh gateways can be
enabled or disabled at runtime with the mesh config entry.
This commit updates proxycfg to add or cancel watches for local servers
depending on this central config.
Note that WAN federation over mesh gateways is determined by a service
metadata flag, and any updates to the gateway service registration will
force the creation of a new snapshot. If enabled, WAN-fed over mesh
gateways will trigger a local server watch on initialize().
Because of this we will only add/remove server watches if WAN federation
over mesh gateways is disabled.
Preivously the TLS configurator would default to presenting auto TLS
certificates as client certificates.
Server agents should not have this behavior and should instead present
the manually configured certs. The autoTLS certs for servers are
exclusively used for peering and should not be used as the default for
outbound communication.
This commit introduces a new ACL token used for internal server
management purposes.
It has a few key properties:
- It has unlimited permissions.
- It is persisted through Raft as System Metadata rather than in the
ACL tokens table. This is to avoid users seeing or modifying it.
- It is re-generated on leadership establishment.

Prior to #13244, connect proxies and gateways could only be configured by an
xDS session served by the local client agent.
In an upcoming release, it will be possible to deploy a Consul service mesh
without client agents. In this model, xDS sessions will be handled by the
servers themselves, which necessitates load-balancing to prevent a single
server from receiving a disproportionate amount of load and becoming
overwhelmed.
This introduces a simple form of load-balancing where Consul will attempt to
achieve an even spread of load (xDS sessions) between all healthy servers.
It does so by implementing a concurrent session limiter (limiter.SessionLimiter)
and adjusting the limit according to autopilot state and proxy service
registrations in the catalog.
If a server is already over capacity (i.e. the session limit is lowered),
Consul will begin draining sessions to rebalance the load. This will result
in the client receiving a `RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED` status code. It is the client's
responsibility to observe this response and reconnect to a different server.
Users of the gRPC client connection brokered by the
consul-server-connection-manager library will get this for free.
The rate at which Consul will drain sessions to rebalance load is scaled
dynamically based on the number of proxies in the catalog.
http.Transport keeps a pool of connections and should be reused when possible. We instantiate a new http.DefaultTransport for every metrics request, making large numbers of concurrent requests inefficiently spin up new connections instead of reusing open ones.

By adding a SpiffeID for server agents, servers can now request a leaf
certificate from the Connect CA.
This new Spiffe ID has a key property: servers are identified by their
datacenter name and trust domain. All servers that share these
attributes will share a ServerURI.
The aim is to use these certificates to verify the server name of ANY
server in a Consul datacenter.
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2489.
This PR introduces a server-local implementation of the
proxycfg.InternalServiceDump interface that sources data from a blocking query
against the server's state store.
For simplicity, it only implements the subset of the Internal.ServiceDump RPC
handler actually used by proxycfg - as such the result type has been changed
to IndexedCheckServiceNodes to avoid confusion.
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2460.
Introduces a server-local implementation of the proxycfg.ResolvedServiceConfig
interface that sources data from a blocking query against the server's state
store.
It moves the service config resolution logic into the agent/configentry package
so that it can be used in both the RPC handler and data source.
I've also done a little re-arranging and adding comments to call out data
sources for which there is to be no server-local equivalent.
When a sidecar proxy is registered, a check is automatically added.
Previously, the address this check used was the underlying service's
address instead of the proxy's address, even though the check is testing
if the proxy is up.
This worked in most cases because the proxy ran on the same IP as the
underlying service but it's not guaranteed and so the proper default
address should be the proxy's address.

To ease the transition for users, the original gRPC
port can still operate in a deprecated mode as either
plain-text or TLS mode. This behavior should be removed
in a future release whenever we no longer support this.
The resulting behavior from this commit is:
`ports.grpc > 0 && ports.grpc_tls > 0` spawns both plain-text and tls ports.
`ports.grpc > 0 && grpc.tls == undefined` spawns a single plain-text port.
`ports.grpc > 0 && grpc.tls != undefined` spawns a single tls port (backwards compat mode).
Peerings are terminated when a peer decides to delete the peering from
their end. Deleting a peering sends a termination message to the peer
and triggers them to mark the peering as terminated but does NOT delete
the peering itself. This is to prevent peerings from disappearing from
both sides just because one side deleted them.
Previously the Delete endpoint was skipping the deletion if the peering
was not marked as active. However, terminated peerings are also
inactive.
This PR makes some updates so that peerings marked as terminated can be
deleted by users.
We need to watch for changes to peerings and update the server addresses which get served by the ring buffer.
Also, if there is an active connection for a peer, we are getting up-to-date server addresses from the replication stream and can safely ignore the token's addresses which may be stale.
Contains 2 changes to the GetEnvoyBootstrapParams response to support
consul-dataplane.
Exposing node_name and node_id:
consul-dataplane will support providing either the node_id or node_name in its
configuration. Unfortunately, supporting both in the xDS meta adds a fair amount
of complexity (partly because most tables are currently indexed on node_name)
so for now we're going to return them both from the bootstrap params endpoint,
allowing consul-dataplane to exchange a node_id for a node_name (which it will
supply in the xDS meta).
Properly setting service for gateways:
To avoid the need to special case gateways in consul-dataplane, service will now
either be the destination service name for connect proxies, or the gateway
service name. This means it can be used as-is in Envoy configuration (i.e. as a
cluster name or in metric tags).
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2339.
It improves our handling of "irrecoverable" errors in proxycfg data sources.
The canonical example of this is what happens when the ACL token presented by
Envoy is deleted/revoked. Previously, the stream would get "stuck" until the
xDS server re-checked the token (after 5 minutes) and terminated the stream.
Materializers would also sit burning resources retrying something that could
never succeed.
Now, it is possible for data sources to mark errors as "terminal" which causes
the xDS stream to be closed immediately. Similarly, the submatview.Store will
evict materializers when it observes they have encountered such an error.
newMockSnapshotHandler has an assertion on t.Cleanup which gets called before the event publisher is cancelled. This commit reorders the context.WithCancel so it properly gets cancelled before the assertion is made.
Consul 1.13.0 changed ServiceVirtualIP to use PeeredServiceName instead of ServiceName which was a breaking change for those using service mesh and wanted to restore their snapshot after upgrading to 1.13.0.
This commit handles existing data with older ServiceName and converts it during restore so that there are no issues when restoring from older snapshots.
1. Create a bexpr filter for performing the filtering
2. Change the state store functions to return the raw (not aggregated)
list of ServiceNodes.
3. Move the aggregate service tags by name logic out of the state store
functions into a new function called from the RPC endpoint
4. Perform the filtering in the endpoint before aggregation.
If startListeners successfully created listeners for some of its input addresses but eventually failed, the function would return an error and existing listeners would not be cleaned up.
Previously establishment and pending secrets were only checked at the
RPC layer. However, given that these are Check-and-Set transactions we
should ensure that the given secrets are still valid when persisting a
secret exchange or promotion.
Otherwise it would be possible for concurrent requests to overwrite each
other.
Previously there was a field indicating the operation that triggered a
secrets write. Now there is a message for each operation and it contains
the secret ID being persisted.
Previously the updates to the peering secrets UUID table relied on
inferring what action triggered the update based on a reconciliation
against the existing secrets.
Instead we now explicitly require the operation to be given so that the
inference isn't necessary. This makes the UUID table logic easier to
reason about and fixes some related bugs.
There is also an update so that the peering secrets get handled on
snapshots/restores.
Dialers do not keep track of peering secret UUIDs, so they should not
attempt to clean up data from that table when their peering is deleted.
We also now keep peer server addresses when marking peerings for
deletion. Peer server addresses are used by the ShouldDial() helper
when determining whether the peering is for a dialer or an acceptor.
We need to keep this data so that peering secrets can be cleaned up
accordingly.
Fixes a bug where a service getting deleted from the catalog would cause
the ConfigSource to spin in a hot loop attempting to look up the service.
This is because we were returning a nil WatchSet which would always
unblock the select.
Kudos to @freddygv for discovering this!
* Avoid logging StreamSecretID
* Wrap additional errors in stream handler
* Fix flakiness in leader test and rename servers for clarity. There was
a race condition where the peering was being deleted in the test
before the stream was active. Now the test waits for the stream to be
connected on both sides before deleting the associated peering.
* Run flaky test serially
* defaulting to false because peering will be released as beta
* Ignore peering disabled error in bundles cachetype

When we receive a FailedPrecondition error, retry that more quickly
because we expect it will resolve shortly. This is particularly
important in the context of Consul servers behind a load balancer
because when establishing a connection we have to retry until we
randomly land on a leader node.
The default retry backoff goes from 2s, 4s, 8s, etc. which can result in
very long delays quite quickly. Instead, this backoff retries in 8ms
five times, then goes exponentially from there: 16ms, 32ms, ... up to a
max of 8152ms.
There were 16 combinations of tests but 4 of them were duplicates since the default key type and bits were "ec" and 256. That entry was commented out to reduce the subtest count to 12.
testrpc.WaitForLeader was failing on arm64 environments; the cause is unknown but it might be due to the environment being flooded with parallel tests making RPC calls. The RPC polling+retry was replaced with a simpler check for leadership based on raft.
- when register service using catalog endpoint, the key of service
name actually should be "service". Add this information to the
error message will help user to quickly fix in the request.
Now that peered upstreams can generate envoy resources (#13758), we need a way to disambiguate local from peered resources in our metrics. The key difference is that datacenter and partition will be replaced with peer, since in the context of peered resources partition is ambiguous (could refer to the partition in a remote cluster or one that exists locally). The partition and datacenter of the proxy will always be that of the source service.
Regexes were updated to make emitting datacenter and partition labels mutually exclusive with peer labels.
Listener filter names were updated to better match the existing regex.
Cluster names assigned to peered upstreams were updated to be synthesized from local peer name (it previously used the externally provided primary SNI, which contained the peer name from the other side of the peering). Integration tests were updated to assert for the new peer labels.
This commit adds a new ACL rule named "peering" to authorize
actions taken against peering-related endpoints.
The "peering" rule has several key properties:
- It is scoped to a partition, and MUST be defined in the default
namespace.
- Its access level must be "read', "write", or "deny".
- Granting an access level will apply to all peerings. This ACL rule
cannot be used to selective grant access to some peerings but not
others.
- If the peering rule is not specified, we fall back to the "operator"
rule and then the default ACL rule.
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2377.
Adds a server-local implementation of the proxycfg.ExportedPeeredServices
interface that sources data from a blocking query against the server's
state store.
Update generate token endpoint (rpc, http, and api module)
If ServerExternalAddresses are set, it will override any addresses gotten from the "consul" service, and be used in the token instead, and dialed by the dialer. This allows for setting up a load balancer for example, in front of the consul servers.
This is the OSS portion of enterprise PR 2352.
It adds a server-local implementation of the proxycfg.PeeredUpstreams interface
based on a blocking query against the server's state store.
It also fixes an omission in the Virtual IP freeing logic where we were never
updating the max index (and therefore blocking queries against
VirtualIPsForAllImportedServices would not return on service deletion).
Peered upstreams has a separate loop in xds from discovery chain upstreams. This PR adds similar but slightly modified code to add filters for peered upstream listeners, clusters, and endpoints in the case of transparent proxy.
The client is set to send keepalive pings every 30s. The server
keepalive enforcement must be set to a number less than that,
otherwise it will disconnect clients for sending pings too often.
MinTime governs the minimum amount of time between pings.
