[autoscaler]

πŸƒ Others

  • [USER] Support the latest zone label topology.kubernetes.io/zone in addition to the existing failure-domain.beta.kubernetes.io/zone while determining the zone for AWS machines. (gardener/autoscaler#70, @prashanth26)
  • [USER] Allow scaling up from zero using the latest stable zone, region, arch, OS, instanceType labels on node objects. (gardener/autoscaler#70, @prashanth26)

[gardener]

⚠️ Breaking Changes

  • [USER] The already deprecated annotation keys confirmation.garden.sapcloud.io/deletion and shoot.garden.sapcloud.io/operation are no longer respected by Gardener components. If you are still using the deprecated annotation keys, please switch the the equivalents from the new API group - respectively confirmation.gardener.cloud/deletion and gardener.cloud/operation. (gardener/gardener#3375, @ialidzhikov)
  • [OPERATOR] The default leader election resource lock of gardener-controller-manager, gardener-scheduler and gardenlet has been changed to configmapsleases. This is a preparation to eventually migrate to leases after a few releases. Please make sure, that the components have permissions to create, get, watch and update leases.coordination.k8s.io in the respective clusters. (gardener/gardener#3535, @timebertt)
  • [OPERATOR] Gardener components now use the protobuf content type wherever possible when talking to the Gardener or Kubernetes APIs, if the content type fields are left empty in the respective component configs. (gardener/gardener#3467, @timebertt)
    • Operators can override this behavior by explicitly specifying application/json as the content type in the respective component configs.
  • [OPERATOR] The check for stale extension health checks is now switched from controllers.shootCare.staleExtensionHealthCheckThreshold to controllers.shootCare.staleExtensionHealthChecks.{enabled,threshold} in the GardenletConfiguration. It is now configurable and enabled by default. (gardener/gardener#3390, @ialidzhikov)
  • [OPERATOR] Deprecated ingress hostnames i.e., AlertManager - au.<shoot-name>.<project-name>.<seed-ingress-domain>, Grafana - gu.<shoot-name>.<project-name>.<seed-ingress-domain>, go.<shoot-name>.<project-name>.<seed-ingress-domain>, Prometheus - p.<shoot-name>.<project-name>.<seed-ingress-domain> were removed and will not be reachable anymore. Please use the hostnames introduced with Gardener v0.34.0 instead. (gardener/gardener#3380, @timuthy)
  • [OPERATOR] gardenlet's shoot-care-control is now using the gardener.cloud/role label key (until now it was garden.sapcloud.io/role) to perform health checks on controlplane components. Make sure you have first upgraded to at least Gardener v1.14 before you upgrade to this version of Gardener. (gardener/gardener#3350, @ialidzhikov)
  • [OPERATOR] With the activated cluster-autoscaler during roll-outs, following are the minimum versions required for different provider-extensions: gardener-extension-provider-aws v1.16.0, gardener-extension-provider-openstack v1.12.0, gardener-extension-provider-azure v1.14.0, gardener-extension-provider-gcp v1.12.0, gardener-extension-provider-alicloud v1.18.0, gardener-extension-provider-vsphere v0.1.0. (gardener/gardener#3332, @hardikdr)
  • [OPERATOR] If the nginx-ingress addon for a shoot used as seed is disabled then you can no longer enable it anymore. Instead, use the new managed ingress controller feature. You can find more information about it here. Existing shoots used as seeds with .spec.addons.nginxIngress.enabled=true will continue to work. (gardener/gardener#3131, @BeckerMax)
  • [DEVELOPER] The CopyValues function has been moved from pkg/utils/chart to pkg/utils and was renamed to ShallowCopyMapStringInterface. (gardener/gardener#3454, @rfranzke)
  • [DEVELOPER] The ImageMapToValues function has been moved from pkg/utils/chart to pkg/utils/imagevector. (gardener/gardener#3454, @rfranzke)
  • [DEVELOPER] A new mutating webhook for the cloudprovider secret has been added in the extensions library. With this change, the EnsurerContext of the genericmutator package has been moved to a separate context package. Please adapt your usage of genericmutator accordingly. (gardener/gardener#3348, @kon-angelo)
  • [DEPENDENCY] Some helper functions and interface types have been changed to accept client.{Object,ObjectList} instead of runtime.Object where applicable to have a clearer contract of what is expected from passed parameters. (gardener/gardener#3476, @timebertt)
  • [DEPENDENCY] The kubernetes.Interface.RESTMapper func has been removed in favor of the client.RESTMapper func. Please adapt your usage accordingly. (gardener/gardener#3473, @timebertt)
  • [DEPENDENCY] Several deprecated / duplicated helper funcs were removed: (gardener/gardener#3463, @timebertt)
    • kutils.KeyFromObject in favor of client.ObjectKeyFromObject
    • controllerutils.HasFinalizer in favor of controllerutil.ContainsFinalizer
    • extensionscontroller.HasFinalizer in favor of controllerutil.ContainsFinalizer
    • controllerutils.BoolPtrDerefOr in favor of pointer.BoolPtrDerefOr
    • flow.SimpleTaskFn
  • [DEPENDENCY] The FileContentInlineCodec and UnitSerializer interfaces have been moved from extensions/pkg/webhook/controlplane to pkg/operation/botanist/extensions/operatingsystemconfig/utils. (gardener/gardener#3454, @rfranzke)
  • [DEPENDENCY] The KubeletConfigCodec interface has been moved from extensions/pkg/webhook/controlplane to pkg/operation/botanist/extensions/operatingsystemconfig/original/components/kubelet and was renamed to ConfigCodec. (gardener/gardener#3454, @rfranzke)
  • [DEPENDENCY] ⚠️ Go dependencies to kubernetes/* and kubernetes-sigs/controller-runtime were updated to v0.19.6 and v0.7.0 respectively. This imposes a lot of consequent breaking changes to go projects vendoring gardener/gardener. If your project/extension vendors gardener/gardener, please read the dedicated section in this issue carefully when upgrading your dependencies. (gardener/gardener#3393, @timebertt)
  • [DEPENDENCY] pkg/utils/secrets.BasicAuthSecretConfig does no longer allow generating bcrypt password hash. The corresponding functionality is now removed. (gardener/gardener#3365, @ialidzhikov)

✨ New Features

  • [USER] Logs from VerticalPodAutoscaler are accessible via the Vertical Pod Autoscaler dashboard in Grafana. (gardener/gardener#3456, @Kristian-ZH)
  • [USER] The shoot reconciliation flow is now waiting until all worker nodes have executed the most recent cloud-config user data. Similarly, the shoot care controller checks if the last successfully applied cloud-config user data on all nodes is outdated or not (and reports this in the EveryNodeReady condition). Please note that both features are only available for new nodes. (gardener/gardener#3396, @rfranzke)
  • [USER] The cluster-autoscaler is now activated even during rolling-update of the shoot clusters. The change in machine-controller-manager of adding the cluster-autoscaler.kubernetes.io/scale-down-disabled annotation during rolling-update is required, in order for autoscaler to not scale-down worker-pools (coming with machine-controller-manager 0.34.0). (gardener/gardener#3332, @hardikdr)
  • [OPERATOR] An additional change detection mechanism for the file download-cloud-config.sh is now used to ensure the file is up-to-date even after VM reboot. (gardener/gardener#3603, @rfranzke)
  • [OPERATOR] Enabling the usage of internal load balancers for the kube-api servers of the shoots. (gardener/gardener#3507, @hassbert)
  • [OPERATOR] The new ShootVPAEnabledByDefault admission plugin of the gardener-apiserver (disabled by default) controls whether the .spec.kubernetes.verticalPodAutoscaler.enabled field for newly created Shoot resources is defaulted to true. Existing Shoots are not modified, i.e., if VPA shall be enabled then it needs to be explicitly set. Also Shoot's can still explicitly disable the VPA by setting .spec.kubernetes.verticalPodAutoscaler.enabled=false. See this document. (gardener/gardener#3468, @timebertt)
  • [OPERATOR] The specification and the configuration files of the cloud-config-downloader.service systemd service are now updated regularly with the original OperatingSystemConfig. (gardener/gardener#3449, @vpnachev)
  • [OPERATOR] konnectivity-server is no longer a sidecar to kube-apiserver when APIServerSNI and KonnectivityTunnel feature gates are enabled. This allows for existing opened tunnel connections from konnectivity-agents to not be interrupted when kube-apiserver is auto-scaled. (gardener/gardener#3399, @mvladev)
  • [OPERATOR] It is now possible to trigger a restart of systemd services on particular shoot worker nodes by annotating the corresponding Node object with worker.gardener.cloud/restart-systemd-services=kubelet, for example. (gardener/gardener#3396, @rfranzke)
  • [OPERATOR] The .spec.revisionHistoryLimit is now set to 1 for Deployments. (gardener/gardener#3374, @rfranzke)
  • [OPERATOR] It is now possible to specify the spec.settings.loadBalancerServices.annotations field for shooted seeds via the "shoot.gardener.cloud/use-as-seed" annotation. You can do this by specifying the loadBalancerServices.annotations.* option - for example loadBalancerServices.annotations.service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-type=nlb. (gardener/gardener#3344, @ialidzhikov)
  • [OPERATOR] The gardener admission controller now exposes metrics (gardener/gardener#3293, @wyb1)
  • [OPERATOR] New SeedKubeScheduler feature gate is added to gardenlet. When enabled, it deploys a custom kube-scheduler in gardener-kube-scheduler namespace of Seed clusters with Kubernetes version 1.17 or greater. The scheduler assigns Shoot control plane Pods to Nodes with higher resource utilization, resulting in better bin-packing of control planes. (gardener/gardener#3243, @mvladev)
  • [OPERATOR] Gardener now offers to manage a dedicated ingress controller for seed clusters (earlier, this was a manual operator task when registering seeds). You can find more information about it here. (gardener/gardener#3131, @BeckerMax)
  • [DEVELOPER] The pkg/utils/kubernetes does now have a new DeleteObjectsFromListConditionally utility function. (gardener/gardener#3454, @rfranzke)
  • [DEVELOPER] Nodeless local dev setups now run with etcd v3.4.14 and K8s v1.20.2. (gardener/gardener#3426, @timuthy)
  • [DEVELOPER] Gardener can now support shoot clusters with Kubernetes version 1.20. In order to allow creation/update of 1.20 clusters you will have to update the version of your provider extension(s) to a version that supports 1.20 as well. Please consult the respective releases and notes in the provider extension's repository. (gardener/gardener#3296, @rfranzke)
  • [DEPENDENCY] The extensions library now allows to specify the leader election resource lock (currently defaulted to configmapsleases). Please read through the doc string of the respective field (ManagerOptions.LeaderElectionResourceLock) carefully before changing the default resource lock. (gardener/gardener#3479, @timebertt)
  • [DEPENDENCY] The ConfigMaps and Secrets used to store the config and state of terraform now have owner reference to the Infrastructure resource. (gardener/gardener#3275, @vpnachev)

πŸ› Bug Fixes

  • [USER] metrics-server's version is updated from v0.4.1 to v0.4.2 to adopt upstream fix that was causing metrics-server to be unavailable for a while after rolling update of Nodes. (gardener/gardener#3515, @ialidzhikov)
  • [USER] Fixed a bug where service, pod or node CIDRs that are private network (RFC1918) or carrier-grade NAT (RFC6598) IPv4 blocks would produce an invalid allow-to-private-networks networkpolicy. (gardener/gardener#3462, @mvladev)

  • [OPERATOR] Fixes a bug causing newly created Seeds to fail during bootstrap (gardener/gardener#3400, @BeckerMax)
  • [OPERATOR] A side-car container is added to kube-proxy that deletes the incorrect conntrack table entries which sometime occur after restart of kube-proxy and prevent the establishment of a tcp connection to the api-server. (gardener/gardener#3395, @DockToFuture)
  • [OPERATOR] Fixed a bug of the managed istio feature flag where the istio rolebinding was created in the wrong namespace. (gardener/gardener#3382, @danielfoehrKn)

  • [OPERATOR] An issue has been fixed that prevented the execution of the Kube-API-Server's configured preStop hooks for >=1.19.x clusters. (gardener/gardener#3295, @timuthy)
  • [OPERATOR] Gardener health checks now take the effective Shoot specification into consideration if .spec.maintenance.confineSpecRollout is used. Earlier, EveryNodeReady or ControlPlaneHealthy conditions reported an invalid state if the specification was changed but not yet effective due to a rollout during shoot maintenance (confineSpecRollout: true). (gardener/gardener#3286, @timuthy)
  • [OPERATOR] KonnectivityTunnel's stability is improved and now handles kube-apiserver autoscaling. It properly sets --server-count of konnectivity-server on such event. (gardener/gardener#3267, @mvladev)
  • [DEVELOPER] The Seed and Shoot logging stack deletion is separated in two functions to avoid accidental deletion of cluster scoped resources. (gardener/gardener#3436, @vlvasilev)

πŸ“° Noteworthy

  • [USER] The Grafana dashboards for the kube-apiserver have been enhanced and are now providing more information for the various metrics. (gardener/gardener#3502, @rfranzke)
  • [USER] The kubectl get shoot table view was adapted and does no longer show the DOMAIN column. Instead, it shows the provider type as well as the last operation type. (gardener/gardener#3460, @rfranzke)
  • [USER] If the kube-apiserver deployment of a shoot cluster does not become ready then Gardener does now evaluate and return the most recent complete logs of the newest pod. It will be part of the .status.last{Operation,Errors}. As a consequence, start-up failures due to invalid feature gate or runtime config settings is being treated as configuration problem error. (gardener/gardener#3353, @rfranzke)
  • [USER] The version for the nginx-ingress addon for shoots has been updated to v0.41.2 ONLY for Kubernetes 1.20 shoot clusters. All shoot clusters with Kubernetes < 1.20 will remain with the current v0.22.0 version. Please be reminded that the nginx-ingress addon is not recommended for production scenarios and that you should deploy (+ customize) your own ingress controller instead. Please use it only for development/evaluation purposes. (gardener/gardener#3315, @rfranzke)
  • [OPERATOR] The ingress domain configuration for Seeds is now immutable. (gardener/gardener#3394, @BeckerMax)
  • [OPERATOR] The gardenlet does not fail the liveness probe when the seed resource configured in the Gardenlet's config has been deleted. (gardener/gardener#2925, @danielfoehrKn)
  • [DEPENDENCY] In the generic worker actuator's migration flow, the MCM finalizer of the secret that is referenced by the Worker is not removed. We have now added functionality that checks that secret and removes only the MCM finalizers if necessary. (gardener/gardener#3607, @rfranzke)
  • [DEPENDENCY] The Terraformer interface has now a new function RemoveTerraformerFinalizerFromConfig which will remove the "terraformer" finalizer from the Secret/ConfigMap resources. (gardener/gardener#3604, @rfranzke)
  • [DEPENDENCY] The terraformer library in extensions/pkg/terraformer does now adopt still running pods instead of deleting them and waiting for their deletion. This enables a faster and more reliable status/result propagation and prevents unhelpful error messages. Infrastructure extension developers do not need to wait for a clean Terraform environment in their Delete() function anymore as the library is now handling this case out-of-the-box. (gardener/gardener#3349, @rfranzke)
  • [DEPENDENCY] During the extension webhook registration, when a namespace is provided via the --webhook-config-namespace flag, the webhook config is enhanced with an owner reference pointing to the provided namespace. This will lead to auto-cleanup of the webhook config when the extension is uninstalled from a seed (earlier, the webhook config was orphaned even after uninstallation from a seed). (gardener/gardener#3341, @rfranzke)
