Currently, there are some unit tests that are failing on Windows due to
various reasons:
- config options not supported on Windows.
- files not closed, which means that they cannot be removed / renamed.
- paths not properly joined (filepath.Join should be used).
- time.Now() is not as precise on Windows, which means that 2
consecutive calls may return the same timestamp.
- different error messages on Windows.
- files have \r\n line endings on Windows.
- /tmp directory being used, which might not exist on Windows. Instead,
the OS-specific Temp directory should be used.
- the default value for Kubelet's EvictionHard field was containing
OS-specific fields. This is now moved, the field is now set during
Kubelet's initialization, after the config file is read.
This change updates the CSR API to add a new, optional field called
expirationSeconds. This field is a request to the signer for the
maximum duration the client wishes the cert to have. The signer is
free to ignore this request based on its own internal policy. The
signers built-in to KCM will honor this field if it is not set to a
value greater than --cluster-signing-duration. The minimum allowed
value for this field is 600 seconds (ten minutes).
This change will help enforce safer durations for certificates in
the Kube ecosystem and will help related projects such as
cert-manager with their migration to the Kube CSR API.
Future enhancements may update the Kubelet to take advantage of this
field when it is configured in a way that can tolerate shorter
certificate lifespans with regular rotation.

Clarifies that requesting no conversion is part of the codec factory, and
future refactors will make the codec factory less opionated about conversion.
This package contains public/private key utilities copied directly from
client-go/util/cert. All imports were updated.
Future PRs will actually refactor the libraries.
Updates #71004
kubeadm uses certificate rotation to replace the initial high-power
cert provided in --kubeconfig with a less powerful certificate on
the masters. This requires that we pass the contents of the client
config certData and keyData down into the cert store to populate
the initial client.
Add better comments to describe why the flow is required. Add a test
that verifies initial cert contents are written to disk. Change
the cert manager to not use MustRegister for prometheus so that
it can be tested.
Ensure that bootstrap+clientcert-rotation in the Kubelet can:
1. happen in the background so that static pods aren't blocked by bootstrap
2. collapse down to a single call path for requesting a CSR
3. reorganize the code to allow future flexibility in retrieving bootstrap creds
Fetching the first certificate and later certificates when the kubelet
is using client rotation and bootstrapping should share the same code
path. We also want to start the Kubelet static pod loop before
bootstrapping completes. Finally, we want to take an incremental step
towards improving how the bootstrap credentials are loaded from disk
(potentially allowing for a CLI call to get credentials, or a remote
plugin that better integrates with cloud providers or KSMs).
Reorganize how the kubelet client config is determined. If rotation is
off, simplify the code path. If rotation is on, load the config
from disk, and then pass that into the cert manager. The cert manager
creates a client each time it tries to request a new cert.
Preserve existing behavior where:
1. bootstrap kubeconfig is used if the current kubeconfig is invalid/expired
2. we create the kubeconfig file based on the bootstrap kubeconfig, pointing to
the location that new client certs will be placed
3. the newest client cert is used once it has been loaded
- Move from the old github.com/golang/glog to k8s.io/klog
- klog as explicit InitFlags() so we add them as necessary
- we update the other repositories that we vendor that made a similar
change from glog to klog
* github.com/kubernetes/repo-infra
* k8s.io/gengo/
* k8s.io/kube-openapi/
* github.com/google/cadvisor
- Entirely remove all references to glog
- Fix some tests by explicit InitFlags in their init() methods

If we create a new key on each CSR, if CSR fails the next attempt will
create a new one instead of reusing previous CSR.
If approver/signer don't handle CSRs as quickly as new nodes come up,
they can pile up and approver would keep handling old abandoned CSRs and
Nodes would keep timing out on startup.
The kubelet uses two different locations to store certificates on
initial bootstrap and then on subsequent rotation:
* bootstrap: certDir/kubelet-client.(crt|key)
* rotation: certDir/kubelet-client-(DATE|current).pem
Bootstrap also creates an initial node.kubeconfig that points to the
certs. Unfortunately, with short rotation the node.kubeconfig then
becomes out of date because it points to the initial cert/key, not the
rotated cert key.
Alter the bootstrap code to store client certs exactly as if they would
be rotated (using the same cert Store code), and reference the PEM file
containing cert/key from node.kubeconfig, which is supported by kubectl
and other Go tooling. This ensures that the node.kubeconfig continues to
be valid past the first expiration.
Ensures that in a crash loop state we can make forward progress by
generating a new key and hence new CSR. If we do not delete the key, an
expired CSR may block startup.
Also more aggressively delete a bad cert path
Before the bootstrap client is used, check a number of conditions that
ensure it can be safely loaded by the server. If any of those conditions
are invalid, re-bootstrap the node. This is primarily to force
bootstrapping without human intervention when a certificate is expired,
but also handles partial file corruption.
