      Epic Goal

      Why is this important?

      • In 1.29, Kube flipped the DisableKubeletCloudCredentialProviders to true by default, this broke our rebase tests as the kubelet could no longer pull images from GCR
      • To mitigate this, we flipped the flag back to false
      • We must revert the flip before the feature is GA'd upstream
      • The cloud provider authentication providers (eg on GCP) become dependencies for kubelet and must be configured via flags
      • As an example on GCP
        • We need to build the provider and ship it as an RPM (perhaps in the kubelet RPM? Can RPMs have dependency RPMs?)
        • The RPM should place the binary into a well known location on disk
        • We then need to create a configuration file and set the correct flags on Kubelet based on this configuration

      Scenarios

      1. ...

      Acceptance Criteria

      • CI - MUST be running successfully with tests automated
      • Release Technical Enablement - Provide necessary release enablement details and documents.
      • ...

      Dependencies (internal and external)

      Setting up the distgit (for production brew builds) depends on the ART team. This should be tackled early.

       

      The PR to ocp-build-data should also be prioritised, as it blocks the PR to openshift/os. There is a separate CI Mirror used to run CI for openshift/os in order to merge, which can take a day to sync.
