This adds a new very tiny memdb table and corresponding raft operation
for updating a very small effective map[string]string collection of
"system metadata". This can persistently record a fact about the Consul
state machine itself.
The first use of this feature will come in a later PR.
This new package provides a client agent implementation of an interface
for fetching the health of services.
This approach has a number of benefits:
1. It provides a much more explicit interface. Instead of everything
dependency on `RPC()` and `Cache.Get()` for many unrelated things
they can depend on a type that are named according to the behaviour
it provides.
2. It gives us a single place to vary the behaviour and migrate to
a new form of RPC (gRPC). The current implementation has two options
(cache, or direct RPC), and in the future we will have more.
It is also a great opporunity to start adding `context.Context` args
to these operations, which in the future will allow us to cancel
the operations.
3. As a concequence of the first, in the Server agent where we make
these calls we can replace the current in-memory RPC calls with
a thin adapter for the real method. This removes the `net/rpc`
machinery from the call in places where it is not needed.
This new package is quite small right now, but I think we can expect it
to grow to a more reasonable size as other RPC calls are replaced.
This change also happens to replace two very similar implementations with
a single implementation.
Reduce Jitter to one function
Rename NewRetryWaiter
Fix a bug in calculateWait where maxWait was applied before jitter, which would make it
possible to wait longer than maxWait.
This really only matters for unit tests, since typically if an agent shuts down its server, it follows that up by exiting the process, which would also clean up all of the networking anyway.
The subscribe endpoint needs to be able to inspect the payload to filter
events, and convert them into the protobuf types.
Use the protobuf CatalogOp type for the operation field, for now. In the
future if we end up with multiple interfaces we should be able to remove
the protobuf dependency by changing this to an int32 and adding a test
for the mapping between the values.
Make the value of the payload a concrete type instead of interface{}. We
can create other payloads for other event types.
