kube-proxy expose the metric network_programming_duration_seconds,
that is defined as the time it takes to program the network since
a a service or pod has changed. It uses an annotation on the endpoints
/endpointslices to calculate when the endpoint was created, however,
on restarts, kube-proxy process all the endpoints again, no matter
when those were generated, polluting the metrics.
To be safe, kube-proxy will estimate the latency only for those
endpoints that were generated after it started.
1. Do not describe port type in message because lp.String() already has the
information.
2. Remove duplicate error detail from event log.
Previous log is like this.
47s Warning listen tcp4 :30764: socket: too many open files node/127.0.0.1 can't open port "nodePort for default/temp-svc:834" (:30764/tcp4), skipping it: listen tcp4 :30764: socket: too many open files
[issue]
When creating a NodePort service with the kubectl create command, the NodePort
assignment may fail.
Failure to assign a NodePort can be simulated with the following malicious
command[1].
$ kubectl create service nodeport temp-svc --tcp=`python3 <<EOF
print("1", end="")
for i in range(2, 1026):
print("," + str(i), end="")
EOF
`
The command succeeds and shows following output.
service/temp-svc created
The service has been successfully generated and can also be referenced with the
get command.
$ kubectl get svc
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S)
temp-svc NodePort 10.0.0.139 <none> 1:31335/TCP,2:32367/TCP,3:30263/TCP,(omitted),1023:31821/TCP,1024:32475/TCP,1025:30311/TCP 12s
The user does not recognize failure to assign a NodePort because
create/get/describe command does not show any error. This is the issue.
[solution]
Users can notice errors by looking at the kube-proxy logs, but it may be difficult to see the kube-proxy logs of all nodes.

So, this patch will fire an event when NodePort assignment fails.
In fact, when the externalIP assignment fails, it is also notified by event.
The event will be displayed like this.
$ kubectl get event

This PR fixes iptables and ipvs proxier.
Since userspace proxier does not seem to be affected by this issue, it is not fixed.
[1] Assume that fd limit is 1024(default).
$ ulimit -n
1024
1. Add API definitions;
2. Add feature gate and drops the field when feature gate is not on;
3. Set default values for the field;
4. Add API Validation
5. add kube-proxy iptables and ipvs implementations
6. add tests
Clear conntrack entries for UDP NodePorts,
this has to be done AFTER the iptables rules are programmed.
It can happen that traffic to the NodePort hits the host before
the iptables rules are programmed this will create an stale entry
in conntrack that will blackhole the traffic, so we need to
clear it ONLY when the service has endpoints.
1. For iptables mode, add KUBE-NODEPORTS chain in filter table. Add
rules to allow healthcheck node port traffic.
2. For ipvs mode, add KUBE-NODE-PORT chain in filter table. Add
KUBE-HEALTH-CHECK-NODE-PORT ipset to allow traffic to healthcheck
node port.
When running in ipvs mode, kube-proxy generated wrong iptables-restore
input because the chain names are hardcoded.
It also fixed a typo in method name.
Currently kube-proxy treat ExternalIPs differently depending on:
- the traffic origin
- if the ExternalIP is present or not in the system.
It also depends on the CNI implementation to
discriminate between local and non-local traffic.
Since the ExternalIP belongs to a Service, we can avoid the roundtrip
of sending outside the traffic originated in the cluster.
Also, we leverage the new LocalTrafficDetector to detect the local
traffic and not rely on the CNI implementations for this.
- Remove feature gate consideration from EndpointSlice validation
- Deprecate topology field, note that it will be removed in future
release
- Update kube-proxy to check for NodeName if feature gate is enabled
- Add comments indicating the feature gates that can be used to enable
alpha API fields
- Add comments explaining use of deprecated address type in tests
The tests for most functions have also been revised to check the errors
explicitly upon validating. This will properly catch occasions
where we should be returning multiple errors if more error occurs or
if just one block is failing.
