This creates a new EndpointSliceProxying feature gate to cover EndpointSlice
consumption (kube-proxy) and allow the existing EndpointSlice feature gate to
focus on EndpointSlice production only. Along with that addition, this enables
the EndpointSlice feature gate by default, now only affecting the controller.
The rationale here is that it's really difficult to guarantee all EndpointSlices
are created in a cluster upgrade process before kube-proxy attempts to consume
them. Although masters are generally upgraded before nodes, and in most cases,
the controller would have enough time to create EndpointSlices before a new node
with kube-proxy spun up, there are plenty of edge cases where that might not be
the case. The primary limitation on EndpointSlice creation is the API rate limit
of 20QPS. In clusters with a lot of endpoints and/or with a lot of other API
requests, it could be difficult to create all the EndpointSlices before a new
node with kube-proxy targeting EndpointSlices spun up.
Separating this into 2 feature gates allows for a more gradual rollout with the
EndpointSlice controller being enabled by default in 1.18, and EndpointSlices
for kube-proxy being enabled by default in the next release.
This includes IPv4 and IPv6 address types and IPVS dual stack support.
Importantly this ensures that EndpointSlices with a FQDN address type
are not processed by kube-proxy.
The proxy healthz server assumed that kube-proxy would regularly call
UpdateTimestamp() even when nothing changed, but that's no longer
true. Fix it to only report unhealthiness when updates have been
received from the apiserver but not promptly pushed out to
iptables/ipvs.
Kube-proxy runs two different health servers; one for monitoring the
health of kube-proxy itself, and one for monitoring the health of
specific services. Rename them to "ProxierHealthServer" and
"ServiceHealthServer" to make this clearer, and do a bit of API
cleanup too.
The detectStaleConnections function in kube-proxy is very expensive in
terms of CPU utilization. The results of this function are only actually
used for UDP ports. This adds a protocol attribute to ServicePortName to
make it simple to only run this function for UDP connections. For
clusters with primarily TCP connections this can improve kube-proxy
performance by 2x.
This should fix a bug that could break masters when the EndpointSlice
feature gate was enabled. This was all tied to how the apiserver creates
and manages it's own services and endpoints (or in this case endpoint
slices). Consumers of endpoint slices also need to know about the
corresponding service. Previously we were trying to set an owner
reference here for this purpose, but that came with potential downsides
and increased complexity. This commit changes behavior of the apiserver
endpointslice integration to set the service name label instead of owner
references, and simplifies consumer logic to reference that (both are
set by the EndpointSlice controller).
Additionally, this should fix a bug with the EndpointSlice GenerateName
value that had previously been set with a "." as a suffix.
Work around Linux kernel bug that sometimes causes multiple flows to
get mapped to the same IP:PORT and consequently some suffer packet
drops.
Also made the same update in kubelet.
Also added cross-pointers between the two bodies of code, in comments.
Some day we should eliminate the duplicate code. But today is not
that day.
Kube-proxy will add ipset entries for all node ips for an SCTP nodeport service. This will solve the problem 'SCTP nodeport service is not working for all IPs present in the node when ipvs is enabled. It is working only for node's InternalIP.'
