Calico/node v3.0.1.

Important: This release includes breaking changes to the data and resource
model. Review the documentation carefully before attempting an upgrade.
Some highlights include:

  • You must upgrade to Calico v2.6.5 before you can upgrade to v3.0.1.
  • Calico deployments that access the etcd datastore directly must complete
    a one-time migration.
  • You must convert any customized Calico manifests via calicoctl convert
    before you can use them with v3.0.1.

What's new

Support for etcdv3

Support for Windows in policy-only mode

Migration and upgrade from v2.6.5

calicoctl enhancements

  • Those using the Kubernetes API datastore can now use calicoctl to create, read, update, and delete Calico policies.

  • calicoctl features two new resources: BGP Configuration and Felix Configuration.

  • The calicoctl policy resource has been split into new network policy and global network policy resources.

  • Network policy resources can include a namespace value, allowing you to create policies that only apply to workload endpoint resources in the same namespace.

  • You can now specify namespaceSelector expressions in network policy and global network policy rules to select one or more namespaces in their entirety.

  • The get, apply, create, delete, and replace commands of calicoctl now include an optional --namespace=<NS> flag. Refer to the calicoctl Command reference section for more details.

  • The get command of calicoctl now includes optional --all-namespaces and --export flags. Refer to the calicoctl get section for more information.

  • calicoctl no longer accepts the following flags in get commands: --node=<NODE>, --orchestrator=<ORCH>, --workload=<WORKLOAD>, and --scope=<SCOPE>. These options are now a part of the individual resources.

  • calicoctl no longer includes a config command. To achieve the equivalent functionality, refer to Modifying low-level component configurations.

  • You can now name host and workload endpoint ports and reference them by name in your policy rules.

  • calicoctl now allows a 0 value for ICMP entries in policy resources, enabling ping responses. In addition, it now rejects 255 values in the type field due to lack of kernel support. Refer to the reference documentation of the network policy and global network policy resources for more information.

  • calicoctl now offers a new convert command, allowing 2.6.x manifests stored under version control to be converted to the v3.x format. calicoctl #1782 (@gunjan5)

Host endpoint policies can be applied to forwarded traffic

  • The new ApplyOnForward flag allows you to specify if a host endpoint policy should apply to forwarded traffic or not. Forwarded traffic includes traffic forwarded between host endpoints and traffic forwarded between a host endpoint and a workload endpoint on the same host. Refer to Using Calico to secure host interfaces for more details.

CNI plugin changes

  • Calico now assigns the host side of veth pairs a MAC address of ee:ee:ee:ee:ee:ee. If this fails, it uses a kernel-generated MAC address as before. For more information, refer to the Troubleshooting FAQ. cni-plugin #436 (@tmjd)

  • The CNI plugin now offers an optional environment variable called CNI_OLD_CONF_NAME. If set, the CNI plug-in cleans up old configuration data during an upgrade, making it easier to migrate to a new CNI_CONF_NAME value. cni-plugin #392(@weikinhuang)

  • The CNI plugin no longer throws a file exists message when programming routes. cni-plugin #406 (@gunjan5)

  • After a period of deprecation, this release removes support for the ETCD_AUTHORITY and ETCD_SCHEME environment variables. Calico no longer reads these values. If you have not transitioned to ETCD_ENDPOINTS, you must do so as of v3.0. Refer to Configuring calicoctl - etcdv3 datastore for more information.

  • A new node controller for Kubernetes deployments clears data associated with deleted nodes from the Calico datastore, preventing conflicts that can lead to crash loops. Refer to Configuring the Calico Kubernetes controllers for more information.

Other changes

  • Calico now works with Kubernetes network services proxy with IPVS/LVS. Calico enforces network policies with kube-proxy running in IPVS mode for Kubernetes clusters. Currently only workload ingress policy is supported.

  • Rolling update is now enabled by default in the Kubernetes self-hosted manifests. calico #1506 (@caseydavenport)

  • The CoreOS version used for the Kubernetes Vagrant tutorial has been updated, resolving an issue causing kubectl to hang. calico #1487 (@2ffs2nns)

  • Typha no longer sends incorrect updateTypes to Felix, increasing the accuracy of Felix statistics. typha #70 (@fasaxc)

  • The CNI plugin now offers an optional environment variable called CNI_OLD_CONF_NAME. If set, the CNI plug-in cleans up old configuration data during an upgrade, making it easier to migrate to a new CNI_CONF_NAME value. cni-plugin #392(@weikinhuang)

Limitations

  • Offers only Kubernetes, OpenShift, and host endpoint integrations: the OpenStack, Mesos, DC/OS, rkt, and Docker orchestrators have not been tested and are not supported. (Calico still supports Docker and rkt containers.) We plan to resume support for the OpenStack, Mesos, DC/OS, and Docker orchestrators in a future release.

  • GoBGP not supported: Setting the CALICO_NETWORKING_BACKEND environment variable to gobgp is not supported. See [Configuring calico/node] (https://docs.projectcalico.org/v3.0/reference/node/configuration) for more information. We plan to resume support for GoBPG in a future release.

  • Route reflectors cannot be clustered: We plan to resume support for this in a future release.
