bridge-nf-call-iptables appears to only be relevant when the containers are
attached to a Linux bridge, which is usually the case with default Kubernetes
setups, docker, and flannel. That ensures that the container traffic is
actually subject to the iptables rules since it traverses a Linux bridge
and bridged traffic is only subject to iptables when bridge-nf-call-iptables=1.
But with other networking solutions (like openshift-sdn) that don't use Linux
bridges, bridge-nf-call-iptables may not be not relevant, because iptables is
invoked at other points not involving a Linux bridge.
The decision to set bridge-nf-call-iptables should be influenced by networking
plugins, so push the responsiblity out to them. If no network plugin is
specified, fall back to the existing bridge-nf-call-iptables=1 behavior.
This commit builds on previous work and creates an independent
worker for every liveness probe. Liveness probes behave largely the same
as readiness probes, so much of the code is shared by introducing a
probeType paramater to distinguish the type when it matters. The
circular dependency between the runtime and the prober is broken by
exposing a shared liveness ResultsManager, owned by the
kubelet. Finally, an Updates channel is introduced to the ResultsManager
so the kubelet can react to unhealthy containers immediately.
Change all references to the container ID in pkg/kubelet/... to the
strong type defined in pkg/kubelet/container: ContainerID
The motivation for this change is to make the format of the ID
unambiguous, specifically whether or not it includes the runtime
prefix (e.g. "docker://").
Each container with a readiness has an individual go-routine which
handles periodic probing for that container. The results are cached, and
written to the status.Manager in the pod sync path.
Add an experimental network plugin implementation named "cni" that
uses the Container Networking Interface (CNI) specification for
configuring networking for pods.
