* fn: New timeout for LB Placer
Previously, LB Placers worked hard as long as
client contexts allowed for. Adding a Placer
config setting to bound this by 360 seconds by
default.
The new timeout is not accounted during actual
function execution and only applies to the amount
of wait time in Placers when the call is not
being executed.
* fn: runner status and docker load images
Introducing a function run for pure runner Status
calls. Previously, Status gRPC calls returned active
inflight request counts with the purpose of a simple
health checker. However this is not sufficient since
it does not show if agent or docker is healthy. With
this change, if pure runner is configured with a status
image, that image is executed through docker. The
call uses zero memory/cpu/tmpsize settings to ensure
resource tracker does not block it.
However, operators might not always have a docker
repository accessible/available for status image. Or
operators might not want the status to go over the
network. To allow such cases, and in general possibly
caching docker images, added a new environment variable
FN_DOCKER_LOAD_FILE. If this is set, fn-agent during
startup will load these images that were previously
saved with 'docker save' into docker.
In pure-runner and LB agent, service providers might want to set specific driver options.
For example, to add cpu-shares to functions, LB can add the information as extensions
to the Call and pass this via gRPC to runners. Runners then pick these extensions from
gRPC call and pass it to driver. Using a custom driver implementation, pure-runners can
process these extensions to modify docker.CreateContainerOptions.
To achieve this, LB agents can now be configured using a call overrider.
Pure-runners can be configured using a custom docker driver.
RunnerCall and Call interfaces both expose call extensions.
An example to demonstrate this is implemented in test/fn-system-tests/system_test.go
which registers a call overrider for LB agent as well as a simple custom docker driver.
In this example, LB agent adds a key-value to extensions and runners add this key-value
as an environment variable to the container.
* fn: user friendly timeout handling changes
Timeout setting in routes now means "maximum amount
of time a function can run in a container".
Total wait time for a given http request is now expected
to be handled by the client. As long as the client waits,
the LB, runner or agents will search for resources to
schedule it.
* fn: lb & pure-runner slot hash id communication
With this change, LB can pre-calculate the slot hash
key and pass it to runners. If LB knows/calculates
the slot hash ids, then it can also make better
estimates on which runner can successfully execute
it especially when status messages from runner
include a small summary of idle slots for a given
slot hash id. (TODO)
* fn: fix mock test
* fn: mutex while waiting I/O considered harmful
*) Removed hold mutex while wait I/O cases these
included possible disk I/O and network I/O.
*) Error/Context Close/Shutdown semantics changed since
the context timeout and comments were misleading. Close
always waits for pending gRPC session to complete.
Context usage here was merely 'wait up to x secs to
report an error' which only logs the error anyway.
Instead, the runner can log the error. And context
still can be passed around perhaps for future opencensus
instrumentation.
* fn: reduce lbagent and agent dependency
lbagent and agent code is too dependent. This causes
any changed in agent to break lbagent. In reality, for
LB there should be no delegated agent. Splitting these
two will cause some code duplication, but it reduces
dependency and complexity (eg. agent without docker)
* fn: post rebase fixup
* fn: runner/runnercall should use lbDeadline
* fn: fixup ln agent test
* fn: remove agent create option for common.WaitGroup
Time.Sleep() blocking fixes in placers (naive and ch) improves
some of the timing in processing, therefore reducing the max
calls settings in mock runner pool.
* GRPC streams end with an EOF
The client should ensure that the final packet is followed by a GRPC
EOF. This has the benefit of permitting the client code to clean up resources.
* Don't require an entire HTTP request in RunnerCall
TryExec needs a handle on an incoming ReadCloser containing the body
of a request; however, everything else will already have been extracted
from the HTTP request in the case of lbAgent use.
(The point of this change is to simplify the interface for other uses.)
