Document HPA behaviour when minReplicas is 0
Documented minReplicas field in autoscaling APIs
This change adds pending pods to the ignored set first before
selecting pods missing metrics. Pending pods are always ignored when
calculating scale.
When the HPA decides which pods and metric values to take into account
when scaling, it divides the pods into three disjoint subsets: 1)
ready 2) missing metrics and 3) ignored. First the HPA selects pods
which are missing metrics. Then it selects pods should be ignored
because they are not ready yet, or are still consuming CPU during
initialization. All the remaining pods go into the ready set. After
the HPA has decided what direction it wants to scale based on the
ready pods, it considers what might have happened if it had the
missing metrics. It makes a conservative guess about what the missing
metrics might have been, 0% if it wants to scale up--100% if it wants
to scale down. This is a good thing when scaling up, because newly
added pods will likely help reduce the usage ratio, even though their
metrics are missing at the moment. The HPA should wait to see the
results of its previous scale decision before it makes another
one. However when scaling down, it means that many missing metrics can
pin the HPA at high scale, even when load is completely removed. In
particular, when there are many unschedulable pods due to insufficient
cluster capacity, the many missing metrics (assumed to be 100%) can
cause the HPA to avoid scaling down indefinitely.
current scale. Two important ones are when missing metrics might
change the direction of scaling, and when the recommended scale is
within tolerance of the current scale.
The way that ReplicaCalculator signals it's desire to not change the
current scale is by returning the current scale. However the current
scale is from scale.Status.Replicas and can be larger than
scale.Spec.Replicas (e.g. during Deployment rollout with configured
surge). This causes a positive feedback loop because
scale.Status.Replicas is written back into scale.Spec.Replicas,
further increasing the current scale.
This PR fixes the feedback loop by plumbing the replica count from
spec through horizontal.go and replica_calculator.go so the calculator
can punt with the right value.
Handle a case in the Horizontal Pod Autoscaler Controller when scaling
on multiple metrics and one or more is missing or invalid.
If all metrics are missing - return an error and leave the isScalingActive
condition as that for the last invalid metric.
If some metrics are missing/invalid and some are valid and found -
if a scale up would be triggered by the valid metrics ignore the missing
metrics and scale up, if a scale down would be triggered, return an error
and leave the isScalingActive condition as that for the last invalid metric.
Add three tests for handling invalid metrics when scaling on
multiple metrics - one for scaling up successfully (new behaviour)
and two for ensuring we don't scale down (existing behaviour).
The reactor in runTest is set to catch all actions, but eventually it
only handles CreateAction without checking action type which might fail
sometimes when Patch arrives. This fix ensures we handle only the
CreateAction.

HPA will treat initial size of autoscalee to avoid hastily overriding
recomendations made by HPA (if HPA set size and then was restarted) or by user
(initial size should be treated as human-generated recommendation).

Do not count soft-deleted pods for scaling purposes in HPA controller
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
The metrics of "soft-deleted" pods in general to be deleted should probably not matter for scaling purposes, since they'll be gone "soon", whether they're nodelost or just normally delete.
As long as soft-deleted pods still exist, they prevent normal scale up.

Fix HPA sample sanitization
**What this PR does / why we need it**: @mwielgus pointed out a case when HPA fails as a result of my changes to HPA algorithm:
- Have pods that use a lot of CPU during initilization, become ready right after they initialize,
- Trigger a scale up,
- When new pods become ready will will count their usage (even though it's not related to any work that needs doing),
- This triggers another scale up, even though existing pods can handle work, no problem.
The fix is:
- Use all samples for non-cpu metrics.
- Only use CPU samples if:
- Pod is ready and was started more than 2 minutes ago, or
- Pod is unready and last readiness change happened more than 10s after it was started.

Replace scale up forbidden window with disregarding CPU samples collected when pod was initializing.

Duration of initialization taint on CPU and window of initial readiness
setting controlled by flags.
Adding API violation exceptions following example of e50340ee23
After my previous changes HPA wasn't behaving correctly in the following
situation:
- Pods use a lot of CPU during initilization, become ready right after they initialize,
- Scale up triggers,
- When new pods become ready HPA counts their usage (even though it's not related to any work that needs doing),
- Another scale up, even though existing pods can handle work, no problem.
Instead discard metric values for pods that are unready and have never
been ready (they may report misleading values, the original reason for
introducing scale up forbidden window).
Use per pod metric when pod is:
- Ready, or
- Not ready but creation timestamp and last readiness change are more
than 10s apart.
In the latter case we asume the pod was ready but later became unready.
We want to use metrics for such pods because sometimes such pods are
unready because they were getting too much load.

Add HPA test for FailedGetExternalMetric
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
Add a HPA test for missing external metrics.
**Release note**:
```
NONE
```
Similar to the change we made for `GetObjectMetricReplicas` in the
previous commit. Ensure that `GetExternalMetricReplicas` does not
include unready pods when its determining how many replica it desires.
Including unready pods can lead to over-scaling.
We did not change the behavior of `GetExternalPerPodMetricReplicas`, as
it is slightly less clear what is the desired behavior. We did make some
small naming refactorings to this method, which will make it easier to
ignore unready pods if we decide we want to.
Previously, when `GetObjectMetricReplicas` calculated the desired
replica count, it multiplied the usage ratio by the current number of replicas.
This method caused over-scaling when there were pods that were not ready
for a long period of time. For example, if there were pods A, B, and C,
and only pod A was ready, and the usage ratio was 500%, we would
previously specify 15 pods as the desired replicas (even though really
only one pod was handling the load).
After this change, we now multiple the usage
ratio by the number of ready pods for `GetObjectMetricReplicas`.
In the example above, we'd only desire 5 replica pods.
This change gives `GetObjectMetricReplicas` the same behavior as the
other replica calculator methods. Only `GetExternalMetricReplicas` and
`GetExternalPerPodMetricRepliacs` still allow unready pods to impact the
number of desired replicas. I will fix this issue in the following
commit.
Currently, when performing a scale up, any failed pods (which can be present for example in case of evictions performed by kubelet) will be treated as unready. Unready pods are treated as if they had 0% utilization which will slow down or even block scale up.
After this change, failed pods are ignored in all calculations. This way they do not influence neither scale up nor scale down replica calculations.
With the introduction of the RESTMetrics client, there are two ways to
fetch metrics for auto-scaling. However, they previously shared error
messages. This could be misleading. Make the error message more clearly
show which method is in use.
There have been a couple of recent bugs in the "normalizing" part of the
`reconcileAutoscaler` method. This part of the code base is responsible
for, among other things, taking the suggested desired replicas based on
the metrics, ensuring it conforms to certain conditions, and updating it
if it does not. Isolate the part that converts the desired replicas
based on a given set of rules into its own function.
We are refactoring this part of the code base to make the logic simpler
and to make it easier to write unit tests.

Polymorphic Scale Client
This PR introduces a polymorphic scale client based on discovery information that's able to scale scalable resources in arbitrary group-versions, as long as they present the scale subresource in their discovery information.
Currently, it supports `extensions/v1beta1.Scale` and `autoscaling/v1.Scale`, but supporting other versions of scale if/when we produce them should be fairly trivial.
It also updates the HPA to use this client, meaning the HPA will now work on any scalable resource, not just things in the `extensions/v1beta1` API group.
**Release note**:
```release-note
Introduces a polymorphic scale client, allowing HorizontalPodAutoscalers to properly function on scalable resources in any API group.
```
Unblocks #29698
Unblocks #38756
Unblocks #49504Fixes#38810
This updates the HPA controller to use the polymorphic scale client from
client-go. This should enable HPAs to work with arbitrary scalable
resources, instead of just those in the extensions API group (meaning we
can deprecate the copy of ReplicationController in extensions/v1beta1).
It also means that the HPA controller now pays attention to the
APIVersion field in `scaleTargetRef` (more specifically, the group part
of it).
Note that currently, discovery information on which resources are
available where is only fetched once (the first time that it's
requested). In the future, we may want a refreshing discovery REST
mapper.

- a preparation for the pkg/api->pkg/apis/core move
- and makes the dependency to the scheme explicit when vizualizing

The later helps with our our efforts to split up the monolithic repo

Fix#53670
Fix a bug where `desiredReplicas` could be greater than `maxReplicas`
if the original value for `desiredReplicas > scaleUpLimit` and
`scaleUpLimit > maxReplicas`. Previously, when that happened, we would
scale up to `scaleUpLimit`, and then in the next auto-scaling run, scale
down to `maxReplicas`. Address this issue and introduce a regression
test.
Previously
`pkg.controller.podautoscaler.UnsafeConvertToVersion` was
exported. However, it was never used outside of the `podautoscaler`
package. Make it private to prevent confusion.
Additionally, move the two private functions in `horizontal.go` to be
with the other private functions at the bottom of the file - imho its
more readable than having them directly at the top of the file, before
the public type and function definitions.
