which did not adjust the oldest available resourceVersion for an empty watch event cache. Exposed by74b9ba3b4d
, which allowed controllers to get list results from etcd before the watch cache is ready (normally they list with resourceVersion=0 which serves the list request from the watch cache, blocking until it is ready) When the watch cache had an empty cache of watch events, it currently allows establishing a watch as if it can deliver a watch event for its currently synced resourceVersion. This results in an off-by-one error which can result in a missed watch event. Scenario: bob: 1. creates object at resourceVersion=11 sally: 1. does a list API request, gets a list resourceVersion of 10 (just before bob creates the object) 2. starts watch handled by watch cache at resourceVersion=10 Watch cache: 1. initial list gets resourceVersion=11, including the item created by bob 2. when determining the initial watch events to send to sally's watch, there are no watch events in the cache, so no initial watch events are sent. 3. the cache listerwatcher watches etcd starting at resourceVersion=11, so future events are fed into the event cache and to sally's watch The watch cache should have dropped sally's watch from resourceVersion=10 with a "gone" error, since it can't deliver the watch event for resourceVersion=11. This would force sally to relist (where she would get a list at resourceVersion=11) and rewatch (from resourceVersion=11) This particularly affects tests that create CRD/TPRs and establish watches on the new types as the storage layer's watch cache is also populating for that type. ```release-note Fix a bug in watch cache sometimes causing missing events after watch cache initialization. ```
Kubernetes

Kubernetes is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts, providing basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications.
Kubernetes builds upon a decade and a half of experience at Google running production workloads at scale using a system called Borg, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community.
Kubernetes is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). If you are a company that wants to help shape the evolution of technologies that are container-packaged, dynamically-scheduled and microservices-oriented, consider joining the CNCF. For details about who's involved and how Kubernetes plays a role, read the CNCF announcement.
To start using Kubernetes
See our documentation on kubernetes.io.
Try our interactive tutorial.
Take a free course on Scalable Microservices with Kubernetes.
To start developing Kubernetes
The community repository hosts all information about building Kubernetes from source, how to contribute code and documentation, who to contact about what, etc.
If you want to build Kubernetes right away there are two options:
You have a working Go environment.
$ go get -d k8s.io/kubernetes
$ cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io/kubernetes
$ make
You have a working Docker environment.
$ git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
$ cd kubernetes
$ make quick-release
If you are less impatient, head over to the developer's documentation.
Support
If you need support, start with the troubleshooting guide and work your way through the process that we've outlined.
That said, if you have questions, reach out to us one way or another.
