Currently, there are some unit tests that are failing on
Windows due to various reasons:
- time.Now() is not as precise on Windows, which means that
2 consecutive calls may return the same timestamp.
- Different "File not found" error messages on Windows.
- The default Container Runtime URL scheme on Windows is npipe, not unix.
addUnschedulablePodBackToBackoffQ happened to put the pod into the backoff
queue because
- the pod was not popped earlier and thus not in flight
- the PodInfo had UnschedulablePlugins set
- determineSchedulingHintForInFlightPod has code for "if UnschedulablePlugins
is set and pod not in flight -> internal error, use backoff"
Relying on such special code is not good. A better way to force backoff is by
recording some concurrent event. isPodWorthRequeuing then calls the
queueHintReturnQueueAfterBackoff function and the pod goes to the backoff
queue.
When some plugin was registered as "unschedulable" in some previous scheduling
attempt, it kept that attribute for a pod forever. When that plugin then later
failed with an error that requires backoff, the pod was incorrectly moved to the
"unschedulable" queue where it got stuck until the periodic flushing because
there was no event that the plugin was waiting for.
Here's an example where that happened:
framework.go:1280: E0831 20:03:47.184243] Reserve/DynamicResources: Plugin failed err="Operation cannot be fulfilled on podschedulingcontexts.resource.k8s.io \"test-dragxd5c\": the object has been modified; please apply your changes to the latest version and try again" node="scheduler-perf-dra-7l2v2" plugin="DynamicResources" pod="test/test-dragxd5c"
schedule_one.go:1001: E0831 20:03:47.184345] Error scheduling pod; retrying err="running Reserve plugin \"DynamicResources\": Operation cannot be fulfilled on podschedulingcontexts.resource.k8s.io \"test-dragxd5c\": the object has been modified; please apply your changes to the latest version and try again" pod="test/test-dragxd5c"
...
scheduling_queue.go:745: I0831 20:03:47.198968] Pod moved to an internal scheduling queue pod="test/test-dragxd5c" event="ScheduleAttemptFailure" queue="Unschedulable" schedulingCycle=9576 hint="QueueSkip"
Pop still needs the information about unschedulable plugins to update the
UnschedulableReason metric. It can reset that information before returning the
PodInfo for the next scheduling attempt.
The problematic scenario was having one pod in flight, one event in the list,
and then detecting a concurrent event for a second pod after the first pod is
done. The new test case covers that.
To make it work without assumptions about the implementation, the QueuedPodInfo
returned by Pop must be the one passed to AddUnschedulableIfNotPresent
after (potentially) populating UnschedulablePlugins. This is done via callback
functions which bind to the same shared variable.
The previous approach was based on the assumption that an in-flight pod can use
the head of the received event list as marker for identifying all events that
occur while the pod is in flight. That assumption is incorrect: when that
existing element gets removed from the list because all pods that were
in-flight when it was received are done, that marker's Next method returns nil
and the code which should have seen several concurrent events (if there were
any) missed all of those.
As a result, a pod with concurrent events could incorrectly get moved to the
unschedulable queue where it could got stuck until the next periodic purging
after 5 minutes if there was no other event for it.
The approach with maintaining a single list of concurrent events can be fixed
by inserting each in-flight pod into the list and using that element to
identify "more recent" events for the pod.
* feature(sscheduling_queue): track events per Pods
* fix typos
* record events in one slice and make each in-flight Pod to refer it
* fix: use Pop() in test before AddUnschedulableIfNotPresent to register in-flight Pods
* eliminate MakeNextPodFuncs
* call Done inside the scheduling queue
* fix comment
* implement done() not to require lock in it
* fix UTs
* improve the receivedEvents implementation based on suggestions
* call DonePod when we don't call AddUnschedulableIfNotPresent
* fix UT
* use queuehint to filter out events for in-flight Pods
* fix based on suggestion from aldo
* fix based on suggestion from Wei
* rename lastEventBefore → previousEvent
* fix based on suggestion
* address comments from aldo
* fix based on the suggestion from Abdullah
* gate in-flight Pods logic by the SchedulingQueueHints feature gate
