Failover is pushed entirely down to the data plane by creating envoy
clusters and putting each successive destination in a different load
assignment priority band. For example this shows that normally requests
go to 1.2.3.4:8080 but when that fails they go to 6.7.8.9:8080:
- name: foo
load_assignment:
cluster_name: foo
policy:
overprovisioning_factor: 100000
endpoints:
- priority: 0
lb_endpoints:
- endpoint:
address:
socket_address:
address: 1.2.3.4
port_value: 8080
- priority: 1
lb_endpoints:
- endpoint:
address:
socket_address:
address: 6.7.8.9
port_value: 8080
Mesh gateways route requests based solely on the SNI header tacked onto
the TLS layer. Envoy currently only lets you configure the outbound SNI
header at the cluster layer.
If you try to failover through a mesh gateway you ideally would
configure the SNI value per endpoint, but that's not possible in envoy
today.
This PR introduces a simpler way around the problem for now:
1. We identify any target of failover that will use mesh gateway mode local or
remote and then further isolate any resolver node in the compiled discovery
chain that has a failover destination set to one of those targets.
2. For each of these resolvers we will perform a small measurement of
comparative healths of the endpoints that come back from the health API for the
set of primary target and serial failover targets. We walk the list of targets
in order and if any endpoint is healthy we return that target, otherwise we
move on to the next target.
3. The CDS and EDS endpoints both perform the measurements in (2) for the
affected resolver nodes.
4. For CDS this measurement selects which TLS SNI field to use for the cluster
(note the cluster is always going to be named for the primary target)
5. For EDS this measurement selects which set of endpoints will populate the
cluster. Priority tiered failover is ignored.
One of the big downsides to this approach to failover is that the failover
detection and correction is going to be controlled by consul rather than
deferring that entirely to the data plane as with the prior version. This also
means that we are bound to only failover using official health signals and
cannot make use of data plane signals like outlier detection to affect
failover.
In this specific scenario the lack of data plane signals is ok because the
effectiveness is already muted by the fact that the ultimate destination
endpoints will have their data plane signals scrambled when they pass through
the mesh gateway wrapper anyway so we're not losing much.
Another related fix is that we now use the endpoint health from the
underlying service, not the health of the gateway (regardless of
failover mode).
In addition to exposing compilation over the API cleaned up the structures that would be exchanged to be cleaner and easier to support and understand.
Also removed ability to configure the envoy OverprovisioningFactor.
This should make them better for sending over RPC or the API.
Instead of a chain implemented explicitly like a linked list (nodes
holding pointers to other nodes) instead switch to a flat map of named
nodes with nodes linking other other nodes by name. The shipped
structure is just a map and a string to indicate which key to start
from.
Other changes:
* inline the compiler option InferDefaults as true
* introduce compiled target config to avoid needing to send back
additional maps of Resolvers; future target-specific compiled state
can go here
* move compiled MeshGateway out of the Resolver and into the
TargetConfig where it makes more sense.
* connect: reconcile how upstream configuration works with discovery chains
The following upstream config fields for connect sidecars sanely
integrate into discovery chain resolution:
- Destination Namespace/Datacenter: Compilation occurs locally but using
different default values for namespaces and datacenters. The xDS
clusters that are created are named as they normally would be.
- Mesh Gateway Mode (single upstream): If set this value overrides any
value computed for any resolver for the entire discovery chain. The xDS
clusters that are created may be named differently (see below).
- Mesh Gateway Mode (whole sidecar): If set this value overrides any
value computed for any resolver for the entire discovery chain. If this
is specifically overridden for a single upstream this value is ignored
in that case. The xDS clusters that are created may be named differently
(see below).
- Protocol (in opaque config): If set this value overrides the value
computed when evaluating the entire discovery chain. If the normal chain
would be TCP or if this override is set to TCP then the result is that
we explicitly disable L7 Routing and Splitting. The xDS clusters that
are created may be named differently (see below).
- Connect Timeout (in opaque config): If set this value overrides the
value for any resolver in the entire discovery chain. The xDS clusters
that are created may be named differently (see below).
If any of the above overrides affect the actual result of compiling the
discovery chain (i.e. "tcp" becomes "grpc" instead of being a no-op
override to "tcp") then the relevant parameters are hashed and provided
to the xDS layer as a prefix for use in naming the Clusters. This is to
ensure that if one Upstream discovery chain has no overrides and
tangentially needs a cluster named "api.default.XXX", and another
Upstream does have overrides for "api.default.XXX" that they won't
cross-pollinate against the operator's wishes.
Fixes#6159
* connect: validate upstreams and prevent duplicates
* Actually run Upstream.Validate() instead of ignoring it as dead code.
* Prevent two upstreams from declaring the same bind address and port.
It wouldn't work anyway.
* Prevent two upstreams from being declared that use the same
type+name+namespace+datacenter. Due to how the Upstream.Identity()
function worked this ended up mostly being enforced in xDS at use-time,
but it should be enforced more clearly at register-time.
* Allow setting the mesh gateway mode for an upstream in config files
* Add envoy integration test for mesh gateways
This necessitated many supporting changes in most of the other test cases.
Add remote mode mesh gateways integration test
The main change is that we no longer filter service instances by health,
preferring instead to render all results down into EDS endpoints in
envoy and merely label the endpoints as HEALTHY or UNHEALTHY.
When OnlyPassing is set to true we will force consul checks in a
'warning' state to render as UNHEALTHY in envoy.
Fixes#6171
* Update go-bexpr to v0.1.1
This brings in:
• `in`/`not in` operators to do substring matching
• `matches` / `not matches` operators to perform regex string matching.
* Add the capability to auto-generate the filtering selector ops tables for our docs
* Ensure the mesh gateway configuration comes back in the api within each upstream
* Add a test for the MeshGatewayConfig in the ToAPI functions
* Ensure we don’t use gateways for dc local connections
* Update the svc kind index for deletions
* Replace the proxycfg.state cache with an interface for testing
Also start implementing proxycfg state testing.
* Update the state tests to verify some gateway watches for upstream-targets of a discovery chain.
Also:
- add back an internal http endpoint to dump a compiled discovery chain for debugging purposes
Before the CompiledDiscoveryChain.IsDefault() method would test:
- is this chain just one resolver step?
- is that resolver step just the default?
But what I forgot to test:
- is that resolver step for the same service that the chain represents?
This last point is important because if you configured just one config
entry:
kind = "service-resolver"
name = "web"
redirect {
service = "other"
}
and requested the chain for "web" you'd get back a **default** resolver
for "other". In the xDS code the IsDefault() method is used to
determine if this chain is "empty". If it is then we use the
pre-discovery-chain logic that just uses data embedded in the Upstream
object (and still lets the escape hatches function).
In the example above that means certain parts of the xDS code were going
to try referencing a cluster named "web..." despite the other parts of
the xDS code maintaining clusters named "other...".
Both 'consul config write' and server bootstrap config entries take a
decoding detour through mapstructure on the way from HCL to an actual
struct. They both may take in snake_case or CamelCase (for consistency)
so need very similar handling.
Unfortunately since they are operating on mirror universes of structs
(api.* vs structs.*) the code cannot be identitical, so try to share the
kind-configuration and duplicate the rest for now.
* Ensure we MapWalk the proxy config in the NodeService and ServiceNode structs
This gets rid of some json encoder errors in the catalog endpoints
* Allow passing explicit bind addresses to envoy
* Move map walking to the ConnectProxyConfig struct
Any place where this struct gets JSON encoded will benefit as opposed to having to implement it everywhere.
* Fail when a non-empty address is provided and not bindable
* camel case
* Update command/connect/envoy/envoy.go
Co-Authored-By: Paul Banks <banks@banksco.de>
* Fix some tests that I broke when refactoring the ConfigSnapshot
* Make sure the MeshGateway config is added to all the right api structs
* Fix some more tests
With this you should be able to fetch all of the relevant discovery
chain config entries from the state store in one query and then feed
them into the compiler outside of a transaction.
There are a lot of TODOs scattered through here, but they're mostly
around handling fun edge cases and can be deferred until more of the
plumbing works completely.
* Support for maximum size for Output of checks
This PR allows users to limit the size of output produced by checks at the agent
and check level.
When set at the agent level, it will limit the output for all checks monitored
by the agent.
When set at the check level, it can override the agent max for a specific check but
only if it is lower than the agent max.
Default value is 4k, and input must be at least 1.
If a KVSet is performed but does not update the entry, do not trigger
watches for this key.
This avoids releasing blocking queries for KV values that did not
actually changed.
This allows addresses to be tagged at the service level similar to what we allow for nodes already. The address translation that can be enabled with the `translate_wan_addrs` config was updated to take these new addresses into account as well.
The observed bug was that a full restart of a consul datacenter (servers
and clients) in conjunction with a restart of a connect-flavored
application with bring-your-own-service-registration logic would very
frequently cause the envoy sidecar service check to never reflect the
aliased service.
Over the course of investigation several bugs and unfortunate
interactions were corrected:
(1)
local.CheckState objects were only shallow copied, but the key piece of
data that gets read and updated is one of the things not copied (the
underlying Check with a Status field). When the stock code was run with
the race detector enabled this highly-relevant-to-the-test-scenario field
was found to be racy.
Changes:
a) update the existing Clone method to include the Check field
b) copy-on-write when those fields need to change rather than
incrementally updating them in place.
This made the observed behavior occur slightly less often.
(2)
If anything about how the runLocal method for node-local alias check
logic was ever flawed, there was no fallback option. Those checks are
purely edge-triggered and failure to properly notice a single edge
transition would leave the alias check incorrect until the next flap of
the aliased check.
The change was to introduce a fallback timer to act as a control loop to
double check the alias check matches the aliased check every minute
(borrowing the duration from the non-local alias check logic body).
This made the observed behavior eventually go away when it did occur.
(3)
Originally I thought there were two main actions involved in the data race:
A. The act of adding the original check (from disk recovery) and its
first health evaluation.
B. The act of the HTTP API requests coming in and resetting the local
state when re-registering the same services and checks.
It took awhile for me to realize that there's a third action at work:
C. The goroutines associated with the original check and the later
checks.
The actual sequence of actions that was causing the bad behavior was
that the API actions result in the original check to be removed and
re-added _without waiting for the original goroutine to terminate_. This
means for brief windows of time during check definition edits there are
two goroutines that can be sending updates for the alias check status.
In extremely unlikely scenarios the original goroutine sees the aliased
check start up in `critical` before being removed but does not get the
notification about the nearly immediate update of that check to
`passing`.
This is interlaced wit the new goroutine coming up, initializing its
base case to `passing` from the current state and then listening for new
notifications of edge triggers.
If the original goroutine "finishes" its update, it then commits one
more write into the local state of `critical` and exits leaving the
alias check no longer reflecting the underlying check.
The correction here is to enforce that the old goroutines must terminate
before spawning the new one for alias checks.

Roles are named and can express the same bundle of permissions that can
currently be assigned to a Token (lists of Policies and Service
Identities). The difference with a Role is that it not itself a bearer
token, but just another entity that can be tied to a Token.
This lets an operator potentially curate a set of smaller reusable
Policies and compose them together into reusable Roles, rather than
always exploding that same list of Policies on any Token that needs
similar permissions.
This also refactors the acl replication code to be semi-generic to avoid
3x copypasta.
This is mainly to avoid having the API return "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z" as
a value for the ExpirationTime field when it is not set. Unfortunately
time.Time doesn't respect the json marshalling "omitempty" directive.
These act like a special cased version of a Policy Template for granting
a token the privileges necessary to register a service and its connect
proxy, and read upstreams from the catalog.

# Data Filtering
This PR will implement filtering for the following endpoints:
## Supported HTTP Endpoints
- `/agent/checks`
- `/agent/services`
- `/catalog/nodes`
- `/catalog/service/:service`
- `/catalog/connect/:service`
- `/catalog/node/:node`
- `/health/node/:node`
- `/health/checks/:service`
- `/health/service/:service`
- `/health/connect/:service`
- `/health/state/:state`
- `/internal/ui/nodes`
- `/internal/ui/services`
More can be added going forward and any endpoint which is used to list some data is a good candidate.
## Usage
When using the HTTP API a `filter` query parameter can be used to pass a filter expression to Consul. Filter Expressions take the general form of:
```
<selector> == <value>
<selector> != <value>
<value> in <selector>
<value> not in <selector>
<selector> contains <value>
<selector> not contains <value>
<selector> is empty
<selector> is not empty
not <other expression>
<expression 1> and <expression 2>
<expression 1> or <expression 2>
```
Normal boolean logic and precedence is supported. All of the actual filtering and evaluation logic is coming from the [go-bexpr](https://github.com/hashicorp/go-bexpr) library
## Other changes
Adding the `Internal.ServiceDump` RPC endpoint. This will allow the UI to filter services better.
Fix error in detecting raft replication errors.
Detect redacted token secrets and prevent attempting to insert.
Add a Redacted field to the TokenBatchRead and TokenRead RPC endpoints
This will indicate whether token secrets have been redacted.
Ensure any token with a redacted secret in secondary datacenters is removed.
Test that redacted tokens cannot be replicated.
Adds two new configuration parameters "dns_config.use_cache" and
"dns_config.cache_max_age" controlling how DNS requests use the agent
cache when querying servers.
Given a query like:
```
{
"Name": "tagged-connect-query",
"Service": {
"Service": "foo",
"Tags": ["tag"],
"Connect": true
}
}
```
And a Consul configuration like:
```
{
"services": [
"name": "foo",
"port": 8080,
"connect": { "sidecar_service": {} },
"tags": ["tag"]
]
}
```
If you executed the query it would always turn up with 0 results. This was because the sidecar service was being created without any tags. You could instead make your config look like:
```
{
"services": [
"name": "foo",
"port": 8080,
"connect": { "sidecar_service": {
"tags": ["tag"]
} },
"tags": ["tag"]
]
}
```
However that is a bit redundant for most cases. This PR ensures that the tags and service meta of the parent service get copied to the sidecar service. If there are any tags or service meta set in the sidecar service definition then this copying does not take place. After the changes, the query will now return the expected results.
A second change was made to prepared queries in this PR which is to allow filtering on ServiceMeta just like we allow for filtering on NodeMeta.

This endpoint aggregates all checks related to <service id> on the agent
and return an appropriate http code + the string describing the worst
check.
This allows to cleanly expose service status to other component, hiding
complexity of multiple checks.
This is especially useful to use consul to feed a load balancer which
would delegate health checking to consul agent.
Exposing this endpoint on the agent is necessary to avoid a hit on
consul servers and avoid decreasing resiliency (this endpoint will work
even if there is no consul leader in the cluster).
* Add leader token upgrade test and fix various ACL enablement bugs

* Finish the ACL state store unit tests
Also rename some things to make them more consistent.
* Do as much ACL replication testing as I can.
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.
* Support multiple tags for health and catalog api endpoints
Fixes#1781.
Adds a `ServiceTags` field to the ServiceSpecificRequest to support
multiple tags, updates the filter logic in the catalog store, and
propagates these change through to the health and catalog endpoints.
Note: Leaves `ServiceTag` in the struct, since it is being used as
part of the DNS lookup, which in turn uses the health check.
* Update the api package to support multiple tags
Includes additional tests.
* Update new tests to use the `require` library
* Update HealthConnect check after a bad merge
* [Performance On Large clusters] Checks do update services/nodes only when really modified to avoid too many updates on very large clusters
In a large cluster, when having a few thousands of nodes, the anti-entropy
mechanism performs lots of changes (several per seconds) while
there is no real change. This patch wants to improve this in order
to increase Consul scalability when using many blocking requests on
health for instance.
* [Performance for large clusters] Only updates index of service if service is really modified
* [Performance for large clusters] Only updates index of nodes if node is really modified
* Added comments / ensure IsSame() has clear semantics
* Avoid having modified boolean, return nil directly if stutures are Same
* Fixed unstable unit tests TestLeader_ChangeServerID
* Rewrite TestNode_IsSame() for better readability as suggested by @banks
* Rename ServiceNode.IsSame() into IsSameService() + added unit tests
* Do not duplicate TestStructs_ServiceNode_Conversions() and increase test coverage of IsSameService
* Clearer documentation in IsSameService
* Take into account ServiceProxy into ServiceNode.IsSameService()
* Fixed IsSameService() with all new structures
* Proxy Config Manager
This component watches for local state changes on the agent and ensures that each service registered locally with Kind == connect-proxy has it's state being actively populated in the cache.
This serves two purposes:
1. For the built-in proxy, it ensures that the state needed to accept connections is available in RAM shortly after registration and likely before the proxy actually starts accepting traffic.
2. For (future - next PR) xDS server and other possible future proxies that require _push_ based config discovery, this provides a mechanism to subscribe and be notified about updates to a proxy instance's config including upstream service discovery results.
* Address review comments
* Better comments; Better delivery of latest snapshot for slow watchers; Embed Config
* Comment typos
* Add upstream Stringer for funsies
- A new endpoint `/v1/agent/service/:service_id` which is a generic way to look up the service for a single instance. The primary value here is that it:
- **supports hash-based blocking** and so;
- **replaces `/agent/connect/proxy/:proxy_id`** as the mechanism the built-in proxy uses to read its config.
- It's not proxy specific and so works for any service.
- It has a temporary shim to call through to the existing endpoint to preserve current managed proxy config defaulting behaviour until that is removed entirely (tested).
- The built-in proxy now uses the new endpoint exclusively for it's config
- The built-in proxy now has a `-sidecar-for` flag that allows the service ID of the _target_ service to be specified, on the condition that there is exactly one "sidecar" proxy (that is one that has `Proxy.DestinationServiceID` set) for the service registered.
- Several fixes for edge cases for SidecarService
- A fix for `Alias` checks - when running locally they didn't update their state until some external thing updated the target. If the target service has no checks registered as below, then the alias never made it past critical.
* Added new Config for SidecarService in ServiceDefinitions.
* WIP: all the code needed for SidecarService is written... none of it is tested other than config :). Need API updates too.
* Test coverage for the new sidecarServiceFromNodeService method.
* Test API registratrion with SidecarService
* Recursive Key Translation 🤦
* Add tests for nested sidecar defintion arrays to ensure they are translated correctly
* Use dedicated internal state rather than Service Meta for tracking sidecars for deregistration.
Add tests for deregistration.
* API struct for agent register. No other endpoint should be affected yet.
* Additional test cases to cover updates to API registrations
* Refactor Service Definition ProxyDestination.

The tl;dr here is:
- Configuring LeafCertTTL with a string like "72h" is how we do it by default and should be supported
- Most of our tests managed to escape this by defining them as time.Duration directly
- Out actual default value is a string
- Since this is stored in a map[string]interface{} config, when it is written to Raft it goes through a msgpack encode/decode cycle (even though it's written from server not over RPC).
- msgpack decode leaves the string as a `[]uint8`
- Some of our parsers required string and failed
- So after 1 hour, a default configured server would throw an error about pruning old CAs
- If a new CA was configured that set LeafCertTTL as a time.Duration, things might be OK after that, but if a new CA was just configured from config file, intialization would cause same issue but always fail still so would never prune the old CA.
- Mostly this is just a janky error that got passed tests due to many levels of complicated encoding/decoding.
tl;dr of the tl;dr: Yay for type safety. Map[string]interface{} combined with msgpack always goes wrong but we somehow get bitten every time in a new way :D
We already fixed this once! The main CA config had the same problem so @kyhavlov already wrote the mapstructure DecodeHook that fixes it. It wasn't used in several places it needed to be and one of those is notw in `structs` which caused a dependency cycle so I've moved them.
This adds a whole new test thta explicitly tests the case that broke here. It also adds tests that would have failed in other places before (Consul and Vaul provider parsing functions). I'm not sure if they would ever be affected as it is now as we've not seen things broken with them but it seems better to explicitly test that and support it to not be bitten a third time!
* Typo fix
* Fix bad Uint8 usage
* Implementation of Weights Data structures
Adding this datastructure will allow us to resolve the
issues #1088 and #4198
This new structure defaults to values:
```
{ Passing: 1, Warning: 0 }
```
Which means, use weight of 0 for a Service in Warning State
while use Weight 1 for a Healthy Service.
Thus it remains compatible with previous Consul versions.
* Implemented weights for DNS SRV Records
* DNS properly support agents with weight support while server does not (backwards compatibility)
* Use Warning value of Weights of 1 by default
When using DNS interface with only_passing = false, all nodes
with non-Critical healthcheck used to have a weight value of 1.
While having weight.Warning = 0 as default value, this is probably
a bad idea as it breaks ascending compatibility.
Thus, we put a default value of 1 to be consistent with existing behaviour.
* Added documentation for new weight field in service description
* Better documentation about weights as suggested by @banks
* Return weight = 1 for unknown Check states as suggested by @banks
* Fixed typo (of -> or) in error message as requested by @mkeeler
* Fixed unstable unit test TestRetryJoin
* Fixed unstable tests
* Fixed wrong Fatalf format in `testrpc/wait.go`
* Added notes regarding DNS SRV lookup limitations regarding number of instances
* Documentation fixes and clarification regarding SRV records with weights as requested by @banks
* Rephrase docs
There are also a lot of small bug fixes found when testing lots of things end-to-end for the first time and some cleanup now it's integrated with real CA code.
- Includes some bug fixes for previous `api` work and `agent` that weren't tested
- Needed somewhat pervasive changes to support hash based blocking - some TODOs left in our watch toolchain that will explicitly fail on hash-based watches.
- Integration into `connect` is partially done here but still WIP
* Fixes agent error handling when check definition is invalid. Distinguishes between empty checks vs invalid checks
* Made CheckTypes return Checks from service definition struct rather than a new copy, and other changes from code review. This also errors when json payload contains empty structs
* Simplify and improve validate method, and make sure that CheckTypes always returns a new copy of validated check definitions
* Tweaks some small style things and error messages.
* Updates the change log.
* Adds client-side retry for no leader errors.
This paves over the case where the client was connected to the leader
when it loses leadership.
* Adds a configurable server RPC drain time and a fail-fast path for RPCs.
When a server leaves it gets removed from the Raft configuration, so it will
never know who the new leader server ends up being. Without this we'd be
doomed to wait out the RPC hold timeout and then fail. This makes things fail
a little quicker while a sever is draining, and since we added a client retry
AND since the server doing this has already shut down and left the Serf LAN,
clients should retry against some other server.
* Makes the RPC hold timeout configurable.
* Reorders struct members.
* Sets the RPC hold timeout default for test servers.
* Bumps the leave drain time up to 5 seconds.
* Robustifies retries with a simpler client-side RPC hold.
* Reverts untended delete.
* Clean up handling of subprocesses and make using a shell optional
* Update docs for subprocess changes
* Fix tests for new subprocess behavior
* More cleanup of subprocesses
* Minor adjustments and cleanup for subprocess logic

* Adds check tests for new args path, and updates existing tests to use new path.
* Adds support for script args in Docker checks.
* Fixes the sanitize unit test.
* Adds panic for unknown watch type, and reverts back to Run().
* Adds shell option back to consul lock command.
* Adds shell option back to consul exec command.
* Adds shell back into consul watch command.
* Refactors signal forwarding and makes Windows-friendly.
* Adds a clarifying comment.
* Changes error wording to a warning.
* Scopes signals to interrupt and kill.
This avoids us trying to send SIGCHILD to the dead process.
* Adds an error for shell=false for consul exec.
* Adds notes about the deprecated script and handler fields.
* De-nests an if statement.
* new config parser for agent
This patch implements a new config parser for the consul agent which
makes the following changes to the previous implementation:
* add HCL support
* all configuration fragments in tests and for default config are
expressed as HCL fragments
* HCL fragments can be provided on the command line so that they
can eventually replace the command line flags.
* HCL/JSON fragments are parsed into a temporary Config structure
which can be merged using reflection (all values are pointers).
The existing merge logic of overwrite for values and append
for slices has been preserved.
* A single builder process generates a typed runtime configuration
for the agent.
The new implementation is more strict and fails in the builder process
if no valid runtime configuration can be generated. Therefore,
additional validations in other parts of the code should be removed.
The builder also pre-computes all required network addresses so that no
address/port magic should be required where the configuration is used
and should therefore be removed.
