Release Notes v1.86

Yake/23KE release notes and upgrade guide

:::danger

This update renames 23ke to yake. You need to rename the config secret and GitRepository resource as described.

:::

:::danger

This update definitely needs backups to be configured. If you are running a 23KE instance without backups, enable backups before performing this update.

:::

Prerequisites

etcd downgrade

In order to align the versions of etcd and etcd-backup-restore with gardener/etcd-druid, we perform a downgrade to etcd-3.4.26 and an upgrade to etcd-backup-restore-0.24.7. This is also expected to improve the stability of the backup process. For the upgrade, you need to

  • Make sure you have an up-to-date backup of the virtual garden etcds. To perform a full backup you can use the following request:

    kubectl -n garden exec -it etcd-0 curl localhost:8080/snapshot/full

  • Delete the statefulset etcd and etcd-events in the garden namespace

    kubectl delete statefulset -n garden etcd
kubectl delete statefulset -n garden etcd-events

During the upgrade helm will create new persistentVolumes for the virtual garden's etcds. These volumes are prefixed by virtual-garden-.

Temporarily remove gardener-metrics-exporter

To workaround an issue with how yake uses gardener-metrics-exporter's chart, delete its deployment

kubectl delete -n garden deployment gardener-metrics-exporter

Upgrade

Perform the migration from 23ke to yake execute the following steps.

  • Create copy of Secret 23ke-config named yake-config

    kubectl get secret -n flux-system 23ke-config -o yaml | kubectl-neat | yq '.metadata.name="yake-config"' | kubectl apply -f -

  • Create new GitRepository source named yake.

    cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: source.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v1
kind: GitRepository
metadata:
  name: yake
  namespace: flux-system
spec:
  interval: 1m
  ref:
    tag: v1.86.0-0
  timeout: 60s
  url: https://github.com/yakecloud/yake
EOF

  • Suspend 23ke Kustomization

    flux suspend ks 23ke

  • Relabel Kustomizations created by the main 23ke Kustomization

    kubectl label ks -n flux-system -l kustomize.toolkit.fluxcd.io/name=23ke kustomize.toolkit.fluxcd.io/name=yake --overwrite

  • Recreate the main Kustomization with name yake

    kubectl get ks -n flux-system 23ke -o yaml | kubectl-neat | yq '.metadata.name="yake" | .spec.sourceRef.name="yake"' | kubectl apply -f -

  • Resume the yake Kustomization

    flux resume ks yake

Cleanup obsolete resources

Once you confirmed everything's working correctly you can remove obsolete resources.

  • Delete the old 23ke Kustomization

    kubectl delete ks -n flux-system 23ke

  • Delete the old GitRepository resource

    kubectl delete gitrepo -n flux-system 23ke

  • Delete Secret 23ke-config

    kubectl delete secret -n flux-system 23ke-config

  • (Optional) Delete the old persistentVolumeClaims and their persistentVolumes belonging to the already deleted statefulsets of etcd and etcd-events.

    kubectl get pvc -n garden | grep '^etcd'
kubectl get pv | grep garden/etcd

Update shoot-rsyslog-relp to 0.3.0

[gardener/gardener-extension-shoot-rsyslog-relp]

⚠️ Breaking Changes

  • [OPERATOR] The security.gardener.cloud/pod-security-enforce annotation in the ControllerRegistration is set to baseline. With this, the pods running in the extension namespace should comply with baseline pod-security standard. by @AleksandarSavchev [#17]

✨ New Features

🏃 Others

  • [OPERATOR] Metrics for the rsyslog service running on the shoot nodes are now exposed and collected according to the following:
    • The metrics are available on the node-exporter's /metrics endpoint.
    • The names of the new metrics match the rsyslog_pstat_.+ regex.
    • The metrics are scraped and collected in the shoot's prometheus instance.
    • A dedicated plutono dashboard is added which displays the rsyslog metrics. by @plkokanov [#32]
  • [OPERATOR] Fixed an issue where the rsyslog systemd unit could become stuck in a failed state immediately after it is installed on the shoot's nodes, if the shoot-rsyslog-relp extension was enabled on the shoot before that. The configure-rsyslog.sh script which is responsible for configuring and restarting the rsyslog systemd unit will now wait for the syslog.service symlink to be created before attempting to configure and restart the rsyslog systemd unit. by @plkokanov [#34]
  • [OPERATOR] The shoot-rsyslog-relp extension is now aligned with Gardener's component checklist:
    • RBAC for the shoot-rsyslog-relp extension controller have been drastically reduced to only the required ones.
    • The deployment for the shoot-rsyslog-relp extension controller now contains the proper label for HA - high-availability-config.resources.gardener.cloud/type: controller
    • The shoot-rsyslog-relp admission pod no longer has a SecurityContext. This will be automatically added by the seccomp-profile webhook of the gardener-resource-manager
    • The rsyslog-relp-configurator and rsyslog-relp-configuration-cleaner pods now use the RuntimeDefault seccomp profile.
    • The init containers of the rsyslog-relp-configurator and rsyslog-relp-configuration-cleaner pods no longer run in privileged mode.
    • The rsyslog-relp-configurator and rsyslog-relp-configuration-cleaner now specify resource requests and limits.
    • PodSecurityPolicys for the rsyslog-relp-configurator and rsyslog-relp-configuration-cleaner are now deployed in the shoot cluster, if its kubernetes version is 1.24.x. by @plkokanov [#29]
  • [OPERATOR] The healthcheck controller is now removed. Starting v1.65.0, gardenlet perform health checks for all ManagedResources in the Shoot control plane in the Seed. There is no longer need of the custom healthcheck controller in the shoot-rsyslog-relp extension as it was doing the same job. It was performing health check for the ManagedResource it deploys. by @plkokanov [#28]
  • [OPERATOR] The rsyslog-relp-configuration-cleaner is no longer deployed on Shoot deletion with shoot-rsyslog-relp extension enabled. The Extension deletion occurs after the Worker deletion. There are no Nodes, hence there is no need to clean up registry configuration. by @plkokanov [#30]

[gardener/gardener-extension-shoot-dns-service]

⚠️ Breaking Changes

  • [OPERATOR] CA and server certificates for the admission component are managed automatically. Passing custom certificates via Helm values is not supported anymore. by @timuthy [#266]

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • [OPERATOR] An issue was fixed that caused shoot clusters with a shoot-dns-service extension configuration not to be validated during creation. Potential validation errors only happened later and remained unnoticed, e.g. when update requests from Gardenlet were denied and shoot reconciliation got stuck. by @timuthy [#270]

[gardener/external-dns-management]

⚠️ Breaking Changes

  • [USER] NS records are not retrieved anymore for all accessible hosted zones to avoid reading all DNS record sets of all hosted zones periodically independently if they are used. Only hosted zones with active DNSProviders are synched, but without caring about consequences of NS records for subdomains. If there are many large hosted zones accessible for given credentials and there are only DNSProviders using a few of these zones (either by domain or zone include), the period synchronisation of the zone state for all other hosted zones is avoided. This can result in a significant reduction of requests to the provider backend. As a downside of this change, applying a DNSEntry for a forwarded subdomain now results in a DNS record set in the parent hosted zone, if the real hosted zone is unknown to the controller. Formerly, applying such a DNSEnty resulted in an error state.
    No action is necessary from the users, this is only a "heads up" for the changed behaviour if NS records are used for subdomains. by @MartinWeindel [gardener/external-dns-management#336]

    For machine images: only allow updating to a higher expired machine image version for an existing worker pool
    For Kubernetes versions: do not allow creation of a worker pool with an expired K8s version, but still allow updating an existing worker pool to a higher expired version. by @danielfoehrKn [#8854]
  • [OPERATOR] gardener-node-agent's OperatingSystemConfig controller now respects the reconciliation timeout and aborts the reconciliation if it takes too long. by @rfranzke [#8907]

✨ New Features

  • [USER] Enhanced Client-Side Validation:
    Previously, if there was a validation error, the submit buttons on Dialogs and the Create Cluster page would be greyed out. Now, these buttons remain active even if there is a validation error.
    Clicking on the submit button in the presence of a validation error will not execute the submit logic. Instead, it will trigger the validation process to ensure that all validation error messages are clearly visible at the respective input fields.
    In addition, we've made it easier to view all error messages. They are now collected and displayed in an alert, similar to how server-side error messages are shown. This enhancement ensures that users are fully aware of any errors that prevent to proceed with the action. by @grolu [#1633]
  • [USER] An improvement in performance and memory usage on the shoot list has been achieved when a large number of clusters are present. In the past, under heavy load, there were repeated instances where the dashboard became unresponsive due to very high memory consumption. This has been achieved by implementing the following two changes:
    • Throttling of shoot events in the frontend.
      Now, only the uid of the modified object is sent to the client, coupled with periodic synchronization of associated shoots.
    • Removal of the key property in the g-shoot-list-row component
    • Improved performance of sorting and filtering implementation
    • Faster response times for list shoot request (experimental: must be enabled by an operator)
    • Reduced network traffic for invisible browser tabs by @holgerkoser [#1637]
  • [OPERATOR] Added a configuration parameter Values.global.dashboard.maxRequestBodySize that specifies the maximum size of the request body. It's value defaults to 100kb. by @holgerkoser [#1656]
  • [OPERATOR] Experimental Features:
    • Enhanced Watch Cache Control for List Shoots Requests.
      We've introduced a new feature to fine-tune caching behavior for list shoots requests. A new configuration option, Values.global.dashboard.experimentalUseWatchCacheForListShoots, has been added to the gardener-dashboard Helm chart. This allows for more precise control over caching with four settings: never, no, yes, and always. By default, this is set to never. As an experimental feature, we welcome feedback and suggest caution in production environments.
    • Fine-tune the throttle delay per cluster.
      This option, found under Values.global.dashboard.frontendConfig.experimental.throttleDelayPerCluster, allows administrators to set the base number of milliseconds delay per cluster. This delay dynamically adjusts the synchronization throttle based on the number of active clusters, optimizing performance and resource utilization in environments with a varying number of clusters. by @holgerkoser [#1637]
