ci: change how warnings are denied on CI#1662
Merged
Conversation
Currently, all crates in the proxy have `#![deny(warnings)]` attributes. These turn all rustc warnings into errors globally for these crates. There are two primary issues with this approach: 1. `#![deny(warnings)]` will deny the "deprecated" warning, turning upstream deprecations into broken builds. However, APIs may be deprecated in semver-compatible releases, so this means a non-breaking dependency release can break our builds. See [here][1] for details. 2. Sometimes, while working on an in-development change, warnings may be temporarily introduced. For example, if a developer is working on some change and adds a function that will be used as part of that change but isn't called yet because the change is incomplete, this will emit a dead code warning and break the build. Because these warnings are turned into errors, this can prevent a developer from running tests while working on a change that's in an incomplete state. The typical solution to this is to temporarily remove the `#![deny(warnings)]` attributes while working on a change that temporarily introduces warnings. However, the downside of this is this can accidentally be committed, and then warnings will no longer be denied for a particular crate. This means we have another thing to look out for when reviewing PRs. As an alternative, this branch changes the proxy's CI configuration so that warnings are denied on CI builds using `RUSTFLAGS="-D warnings"`, rather than using `#![deny(...)] attributes in the code itself. This has the advantage that when building locally, warnings don't fail the build. In addition, I've added a separate CI job in the `deps` workflow that's specifically for checking for deprecation warnings using `RUSTFLAGS="-D deprecated". All the other builds now pass `RUSTFLAGS="-D warnings -A deprecated" to allow deprecations, so that they can't break other builds. The deprecations CI job should be allowed to fail, as it's informational --- it shouldn't block PRs from merging, but it provides information about things that should be addressed when possible. In the future, it would be nice to change this job so that it creates new issues for deprecation warnings rather than failing, similarly to what we currently do for security advisories. That way, new deprecations no longer block PRs from merging, but instead create issues that can be fixed separately.

This release fixes a problem with HTTP/1.1 `CONNECT` requests. When a server responds to a `CONNECT` request with `content-length` or `transfer-encoding` headers (in violation of RFC 7231), the proxy must actively strip these headers to avoid making the Hyper server fail the response. This release also fixes an issue with the way proxies discover control plane components via DNS. When `SRV` records cannot be resolved, the proxy would no not necessarily fall back to resolving `A` records. This has been fixed. Finally, the inbound proxy can now discover policies dynamically. Ports that are configured in the `LINKERD2_PROXY_INBOUND_PORTS` are discovered as the proxy starts up; but now the proxy will discover policies for ports that are not in this list. The pod's default policy is used initially, but once a policy is received from the control plane it is used. --- * build(deps): bump syn from 1.0.93 to 1.0.94 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1664) * build(deps): bump tj-actions/changed-files from 19 to 20 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1665) * build(deps): bump rustls from 0.20.4 to 0.20.5 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1666) * build(deps): bump ryu from 1.0.9 to 1.0.10 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1667) * build(deps): bump tokio-util from 0.7.1 to 0.7.2 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1668) * build(deps): bump itoa from 1.0.1 to 1.0.2 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1669) * build(deps): bump tonic from 0.7.1 to 0.7.2 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1652) * dns: Fall back to A record when SRV resolution fails (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1670) * Consolidate error chain inspection with `cause_ref` (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1671) * ci: change how warnings are denied on CI (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1662) * build(deps): bump proc-macro2 from 1.0.38 to 1.0.39 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1673) * build(deps): bump libc from 0.2.125 to 0.2.126 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1674) * build(deps): bump syn from 1.0.94 to 1.0.95 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1675) * ci: Use the cargo-action-fmt setup action (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1672) * opencensus: Include empty generated protobuf (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1676) * build(deps): bump rustls from 0.20.5 to 0.20.6 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1679) * Revert "build(deps): bump socket2 from 0.4.4 to 0.4.5 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1654)" (#1681) * build(deps): bump EmbarkStudios/cargo-deny-action from 1.2.17 to 1.3.0 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1678) * build(deps): bump clang-sys from 1.3.1 to 1.3.2 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1680) * cache: generalize `Cache` into a key-value cache (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1683) * build(deps): bump once_cell from 1.10.0 to 1.11.0 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1687) * build(deps): bump EmbarkStudios/cargo-deny-action from 1.3.0 to 1.3.1 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1686) * trace: add `/logs.json` endpoint to admin server (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1642) * Dynamically discover policies for undocumented ports (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1677) * Don't allow a policy to be used if `check_port_allowed` fails (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1689) * ci: Simplify release workflow (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1690) * build(deps): bump petgraph from 0.6.0 to 0.6.1 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1696) * build(deps): bump actions/upload-artifact from 3.0.0 to 3.1.0 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1692) * build(deps): bump tj-actions/changed-files from 20 to 20.1 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1693) * build(deps): bump http-body from 0.4.4 to 0.4.5 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1694) * build(deps): bump regex from 1.5.5 to 1.5.6 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1695) * build(deps): bump regex-syntax from 0.6.25 to 0.6.26 (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1697) * http: Strip illegal headers from CONNECT responses (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1699) * dev: Replace `Makefile` with `justfile` (linkerd/linkerd2-proxy#1691) Signed-off-by: Oliver Gould <[email protected]>
