Fixes #779

Proposed Changes

  • Created a default channel controller. This controller will watch every Channel and set its ProvisionerInstalled condition to false if there is no provisioner that watches the channel
  • This condition will be set to true by individual controllers when they start watching the Channel
  • There were concerns about multiple controllers trying to update the status of the same object. However this is not a concern with the current implementation and it seems there are multiple cases in kubernetes where this is done.
    The API server Update API support optimistic concurrency based on resource version. When using controller client to update, if the object on server side changes after reading the object and before updating it in the controller, then the update api will fail with CONFLICT error. This is handled by re-queueing the request for reconcile.
    I have verified this behavior with current code on a GKE cluster.

Release Note

A new channel-default-controller will monitor every channel. It will check if ClusterChannelProvisioner is installed and that the channel-provisioner-specific controller monitors the channel.
If provisioner is not installed or corrupt and no controller monitors this channel,  then the ProvisionerInstalled condition in status will be set to False and the channel will be marked as not ready.
If the provisoner is installed and monitoring the channel then the ProvisionerInstalled condition in status will be set to True

and update its status in case the channel is not being watched by any controller
This could happen if the end user creates a channel but doesn't install the
provisioner.

I'd actually update the Release Notes seciton, since it has user visible changes. Also, we should make sure to update documentation with this information and probably update the debugging also. Not as part of this PR, but we should probably create an issue to track or put out a PR to update those.

I think there is a clarification that is required around our expectations of the Ready condition and the default provisioner controller. I would not expect it to set Ready at all.

There is also a question of if this controller should update this status on the normal re-reconcile period if it finds there to be no provisioner. It would sure be interesting to get that set on the channel that worked and then the provisioner went away and now my stuff is broken?

I don't agree with not setting the Ready condition.
Ready/Happy condition is the final condition that tells the user whether the object is ready from control plane perspective. The channel may or may not be ready from a data plane perspective or due to some other resources. The dependent conditions tell the specific reason(s). Also as a user when I query the channel object using kubectl without -o, then it returns the Name, Ready, and Reason. In the case (which is the most likely case) that a Channel is installed but the provisioner was never installed and if I run kubectl get channels/chan then it will return Name:Chan, READY:False, REASON: Provisioner not found.
However Ready will not be set to True till all the dependent conditions are set to True.

I think this is the correct user experience that is expected. Thoughts?

I can live with this version 😄 I think there could be a todo added or issue created to follow-up on if we should fetch the provisioner and see if it is having a bad day or not and then propagate it's status up.
