the operant change in question: https://github.com/tower-rs/tower/pull/654/files#diff-35398bbf39b455b121231a971e231cfc669556eda1c98705f367aa774f3da86cL16-R22.

this commit updates our tower dependency from 0.4 to 0.5. note that this commit does not affect the `tower-service` and `tower-layer` crates, reëxported by `tower` itself. the `Service<T>` trait and the closely related `Layer<S>` trait have not been changed. the `tower` crate's utilities have changed in various ways, some of particular note for the linkerd2 proxy. see these items, excerpted from the tower changelog: - **retry**: **Breaking Change** `retry::Policy::retry` now accepts `&mut Req` and `&mut Res` instead of the previous mutable versions. This increases the flexibility of the retry policy. To update, update your method signature to include `mut` for both parameters. ([#584]) - **retry**: **Breaking Change** Change Policy to accept &mut self ([#681]) - **retry**: Add generic backoff utilities ([#685]) - **retry**: **Breaking Change** `Budget` is now a trait. This allows end-users to implement their own budget and bucket implementations. ([#703]) - **util**: **Breaking Change** `Either::A` and `Either::B` have been renamed `Either::Left` and `Either::Right`, respectively. ([#637]) - **util**: **Breaking Change** `Either` now requires its two services to have the same error type. ([#637]) - **util**: **Breaking Change** `Either` no longer implemenmts `Future`. ([#637]) - **buffer**: **Breaking Change** `Buffer<S, Request>` is now generic over `Buffer<Request, S::Future>.` ([#654]) the `Either` trait bounds are particularly impactful for us. * <tower-rs/tower@v0.4.x...master> * <https://github.com/tower-rs/tower/blob/master/tower/CHANGELOG.md> * <tower-rs/tower#815> * <tower-rs/tower#817> * <tower-rs/tower#818> this work is based upon #3504. for more information, see: * linkerd/linkerd2#8733 * #3504 Signed-off-by: katelyn martin <kate@buoyant.io>

This is because the buffer implementation using semaphore > permits is _very subtly_ different from one using a bounded channel. In > the `Semaphore`-based implementation, a semaphore permit is stored in > the `Message` struct sent over the channel. This is so that the capacity > is used as long as the message is in flight. However, when the worker > task is processing a message that's been recieved from the channel, > the permit is still not dropped. Essentially, the one message actively > held by the worker task _also_ occupies one "slot" of capacity, so the > actual channel capacity is one less than the value passed to the > constructor, _once the first request has been sent to the worker_. The > bounded MPSC changed this behavior so that capacity is only occupied > while a request is actually in the channel, which broke some tests > that relied on the old (and technically wrong) behavior. bear particular attention to this: > The bounded MPSC changed this behavior so that capacity is only > occupied while a request is actually in the channel, which broke some > tests that relied on the old (and technically wrong) behavior. that pr adds an additional message to the channel in tests exercising the laod-shedding behavior, on account of the previous (incorrect) behavior. https://github.com/tower-rs/tower/pull/635/files#r797108274 this commit performs the same change for our corresponding test, adding an additional `ready()` call before we hit the buffer's limit.
