swarm-secret-publish and its path unit now run inside authelia's container,
beside the mint, and read each client secret at the path authelia writes it.
The host unit and host path unit, which read the secrets through the
container's root on the host, are gone, and so is
deploy.authelia.hostClientSecretDir, which only they read. The publisher keeps
its store identity, the secret-publisher leaf. The host hands the leaf and the
store's CA into the container as nspawn system credentials, and the unit loads
them; where this host mints the leaf, the container waits for swarm-bao-pki.
Authelia does not wait for the publisher, which retries every 30 seconds while
the store is down.
The container also runs the journal forwarder the other service containers
run, pushing to a receiver of its own on the swarm collector (serviceProducers
swarm-authelia) as a new machine OIDC client (swarm.authelia.otel.clientId)
that authelia registers for itself and the publisher carries to the store. The
fetch unit reads it back under the publisher's leaf, also handed to it as a
system credential, so the swarm-secret-publisher policy gains read on that one
leaf; its stanza keeps create and update, which the exact path would otherwise
take from the services/* prefix. Without the leaf the forwarder is off.
The container drops --link-journal=host, and the host collector stops reading
it. The services' "nothing at <path>" errors name the publisher in authelia's
container.
hive-c0re (`hive-<name>`), swarm-controller and swarm-review-classifier
read their queue client secret from the store once and held it as
`ClientSecret::Value` for the life of the process. After authelia
re-minted a secret and swarm-secret-publish stored the new one, every
later token mint presented the old value and was refused until the
daemon restarted.
`ClientSecret::Stored` replaces `Value`: a `StoredSecret` holds the
secret in memory with a caller-supplied read callback, so the crate
takes no store dependency. When the token endpoint answers 400 or 401,
`mint_token` (and its blocking sibling, used by the controller's OTLP
exporters) re-reads it and, if the store holds a different secret,
mints once more with it. One re-read runs at a time and is spawned so
it outlives a caller that gives up. A re-read that fails or finds the
refused value delays the next one, 5 s doubling to 5 min, so a secret
that stays wrong costs one store read per delay. Logs name the client
id and never the secret.
swarm-nats-auth's `oidc_secret` was the template; its re-read machinery
now sits on `StoredSecret`, so the tree has one copy. The responder
gains the same re-read backoff.
The controller keeps its `IDENTITY` OnceLock: it now holds a
`QueueConfig` whose secret is re-read, and the lazily built vcs-metrics
exporter reads the identity from it.
agent_renewal.rs's module doc said a re-minted agent queue secret only
reaches the agent at its next start; hive-agent reads the store on every
connection attempt after its first, so the doc now says that.
Part of #5017 (slice Q).
hive-c0re publishes this hive's status to the swarm queue as the OIDC
client `hive-<name>`. Its secret came from
`deploy.hive-controller.statusPublish.clientSecretFile`, which defaulted
to authelia's minted file only on a host running both authelia and the
queue. Every other hive had no secret and never published, so the
controller showed it `never_reported`.
Now `swarm-secret-publish`, beside authelia, also copies each hive's
`hive-<name>` secret to `swarm/hives/<hive>/oidc/client`. Its policy
already allows `swarm/hives/*`. hive-c0re reads that path under the
hive's own store leaf, which the existing `swarm/hives/<hive>/*` grant
covers, and holds the value in memory.
The shared queue client no longer remembers a failed first connect for
the life of the process. A failed attempt is retried with a backoff
from 5s, doubling to a cap of 5 minutes; the dashboard banner stays up
until an attempt succeeds. The two status publishers wait for the
client instead of giving up on the first `None`, so a secret published
after boot is picked up without a restart.
Removed: the `statusPublish.clientSecretFile` option (both spellings,
now removed options with a message), its same-host default, its
LoadCredential, the assertion tying it to the other two coordinates,
and `swarm_queue_client::QueueConfig::from_env`, whose only caller was
this read. Publishing is now on wherever the queue URL and token
endpoint are set and the hive holds a store leaf.
