Every unit that writes a bao policy or cert-auth role ran only while the
operator-placed bootstrap token existed, and skipped silently otherwise.
The token lives 24h, so on any real swarm a PR adding or changing a grant
deployed with its unit skipped, and each one needed a manual token refresh
(plus a root `bao policy write` when it added a path).
A `bao-granter` principal now writes them. Its leaf is minted by
swarm-bao-pki on the store host (0600 root, never copied off it), and its
policy covers `swarm-*` policies, `swarm-*` cert-auth roles and
`pki/roles/swarm-*` by glob, plus the mount and services-root paths the
controller's unit already used. All ten granting units
(controller, secret-publisher, matrix-ctl, matrix-token, queue-agent,
grafana-oidc, otel-oidc, forwarder-oidc, services-issuer, nats-tls) log in
with it instead of reading the token. They keep the 2880 x 30s retry, now
require swarm-bao-pki, and when the store refuses the granter they fail
and print the one-time step instead of skipping.
swarm-bao-granter-role is the one unit left on the token. It enables the
auth mounts (moved out of the controller's unit) and writes the granter's
own policy and role. The bootstrap policy is renamed `bao-bootstrap` and
shrinks to those five stanzas; it is shipped at
/etc/hyperhive/bao-bootstrap-policy.hcl. The old name `swarm-bootstrap`
matched the granter's own `swarm-*` glob.
The granter's CN joins certAuthCns, so no hive can be named into its role.
An assertion keeps both pki role names under `swarm-`. With no client CA
the granting units no longer render, and a warning says so.
module-eval pins the granter's policy stanza by stanza, what it cannot
reach, that every call a granting unit makes is granted, and that only
swarm-bao-granter-role reads the token.
Refs #4704
A remote hive dialled nothing until an operator copied the queue's URL
into it, though the URL is the same string everywhere. statusPublish.natsUrl,
queue.agentNatsUrl and controller.queue.natsUrl now default to
tls://<swarm.nats.domain>:<port> unconditionally.
The statusPublish assertion treated a URL without a secret as a half
config. With the URL a default on every hive, only the secret claims
publishing: the assertion now refuses a secret without a URL or token
endpoint, and hive-c0re's status environment is gated on the secret too,
so a hive without one publishes nothing instead of reading a missing
credential.
The queue listened in plaintext on 4222, reached by bridge IP or loopback,
and nothing in-tree opened it to another hive. It now has a name, serves a
certificate for that name alone, and refuses clients that do not speak TLS.
- `swarm.nats.domain`, default `nats.<swarm.domain>`, a sibling name like
`swarm.bao.domain`. The queue host answers it via `gateway.localNames`;
every other hive resolves it through the operator's DNS, as for bao.
- `pki/roles/swarm-nats` allows that one name (bare domain, no subdomains,
IPs or localhost, server flag). A `swarm-nats` cert-auth role and policy
may only `update` `pki/issue/swarm-nats`, written by
`swarm-bao-nats-tls-policy`. The login leaf is minted by glue-bao-tls and
paired by glue-nats-bao-identity. `deploy.bao.natsCommonName` is reserved
as a hive name.
- `swarm-bao-nats-tls` issues the leaf into a directory bound read-only into
the container, restarts nats when it rotates, and re-runs daily.
It joins glue-bao-readers-policy-order, so it is ordered after its policy
unit (`after` and `wants`, never `requires`) where the store is on the
same host. The policy unit joins the store's journald list.
- nats gets `tls {}`, with the key via `LoadCredential`, and no
`allow_non_tls`. `validateConfig` is now off in every mode, because the
build-time check loads a leaf that only exists at runtime.
- 4222 is also open on `wg-hive` when the host is on the mesh, never
host-wide.
- `statusPublish.natsUrl`, `queue.agentNatsUrl`, the controller's URL under
`singleHostSwarm`, and the auth responder all dial
`tls://<swarm.nats.domain>:<port>`. swarm-queue-client hands its CA file
to the NATS connection too, so hive-c0re and the controller trust the
leaf's root.
- docs/swarm/README.md: the queue URL and the one DNS record a multi-host
swarm needs.
module-eval-nats-tls pins the role, the policy, the served leaf, the
firewall, the ordering, and a scan of every `*_NATS_URL` and the
responder's URL across the host and its containers.
