ovnkube-controller bug: ovn service lb still has the endpoint when pod is in terminating state

XMLWordPrintable

      Description of problem:

      The users are experiencing an issue with NodePort traffic forwarding, where the TCP traffic continues to be directed to pods which are under terminating state, the connection cannot be created sucessfully, as per the customer mentioned this issue is causing the connection disruptions in the business transaction.

       

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      On the OpenShift 4.12.13 with RHEL8.6 workers and OVN environment.

       

      How reproducible:

      here is the code found.
      https://github.com/openshift/ovn-kubernetes/blob/dd3c7ed8c1f41873168d3df26084ecbfd3d9a36b/go-controller/pkg/util/kube.go#L360

      func IsEndpointServing(endpoint discovery.Endpoint) bool {
              if endpoint.Conditions.Serving != nil

      {                 return *endpoint.Conditions.Serving         }

      else

      {                 return IsEndpointReady(endpoint)         }

      }

      // IsEndpointValid takes as input an endpoint from an endpoint slice and a boolean that indicates whether to include
      // all terminating endpoints, as per the PublishNotReadyAddresses feature in kubernetes service spec. It always returns true
      // if includeTerminating is true and falls back to IsEndpointServing otherwise.
      func IsEndpointValid(endpoint discovery.Endpoint, includeTerminating bool) bool

      {         return includeTerminating || IsEndpointServing(endpoint) }

      Look like 'IsEndpointValid' function will retrun serving=true endpoint, it not checking the ready=true endpoint
      I see recently the code has been changed in this section(look up Ready=true is changed to Serving=true)?

      [Check the "Serving" field for endpoints]

                  out.Port = *port.Port
                  for _, endpoint := range slice.Endpoints {
                      // Skip endpoint if it's not valid
                      if !IsEndpointValid(endpoint, includeTerminating)

      {                     klog.V(4).Infof("Slice endpoint not valid")                     continue                 }

                      for _, ip := range endpoint.Addresses {
                          klog.V(4).Infof("Adding slice %s endpoint: %v, port: %d", slice.Name, endpoint.Addresses, *port.Port)
                          ipStr := utilnet.ParseIPSloppy(ip).String()
                          switch slice.AddressType

      {                     case discovery.AddressTypeIPv4:                         v4ips.Insert(ipStr)                     case discovery.AddressTypeIPv6:                         v6ips.Insert(ipStr)                     default:                         klog.V(5).Infof("Skipping FQDN slice %s/%s", slice.Namespace, slice.Name)                     }

      when delete pod Pod(mbgateway-st-8576f6f6f8-5jc75), check the EndpointSlice status:

      Wait for a little moment, try to check Ovn Service lb, it found the endpoints information doesn't update to the latest.

      check Ovn Service lb, it found the Pod Endpoint information is still here:

      Actual results:

      Service LB endpoint determines on the POD.status.condition[type=Serving] status.

      Expected results:

      Service LB endpoint should determines on the POD.status.condition[type=Ready] status.

       

      Additional info:

      The ovn-controller determines whether an endpoint should be added to the Service Load Balancer (serviceLB) based on the condition.serving. The current issue is that when a pod is in the terminating state, the condition.serving remains true. Its state determines on the POD.status.condition[type=Ready] status is being true.

      However when a pod is deleted, the endpointslice condition.serving state remains unchanged, and the backend pool of the service LB still includes the IP information of the deleted pod.Why doesn't ovn-controller use the condition.ready status to decide whether the pod's IP should be added to the service LB backend pool?

      Could the shift-networking experts confirm whether this is the openshift ovn service lb bug or not?
