* Requires poseidon v0.11+ and Flatcar Linux 3185.0.0+ (action required)
* Previously, Flatcar Linux configs have been parsed as Container
Linux Configs to Ignition v2.2.0 specs by poseidon/ct
* Flatcar Linux starting in 3185.0.0 now supports Ignition v3.x specs
(which are rendered from Butane Configs, like Fedora CoreOS)
* poseidon/ct v0.11.0 adds support for the flatcar Butane Config
variant so that Flatcar Linux can use Ignition v3.x
Rel:
* [Flatcar Support](https://flatcar-linux.org/docs/latest/provisioning/ignition/specification/#ignition-v3)
* [poseidon/ct support](https://github.com/poseidon/terraform-provider-ct/pull/131)
* Google Cloud Terraform provider resource google_dns_record_set's
name field provides the full domain name with a trailing ".". This
isn't a new behavior, Google has behaved this way as long as I can
remember
* etcd domain names are passed to the bootstrap module to generate
TLS certificates. What seems to be new(ish?) is that etcd peers
see example.foo and example.foo. as different domains during TLS
SANs validation. As a result, clusters with multiple controller
nodes fail to run etcd-member, which manifests as cluster provisioning
hanging. Single controller/master clusters (default) are unaffected
* Fix etcd-member.service error in multi-controller clusters:
```
"error":"x509: certificate is valid for conformance-etcd0.redacted.,
conform-etcd1.redacted., conform-etcd2.redacted., not conform-etcd1.redacted"}
```
* Fixes warning about use of deprecated field `key_algorithm` in
the `hashicorp/tls` provider. The key algorithm can now be inferred
directly from the private key so resources don't have to output
and pass around the algorithm
* Add `boot_disk[0].initialize_params` to the ignored fields for the
controller nodes
* Nodes will auto-update, Terraform should not attempt to delete and
recreate nodes (especially controllers!). Lack of this ignore causes
Terraform to propose deleting controller nodes when Flatcar Linux
releases new images
* Matches the configuration on Typhoon Fedora CoreOS (which does not
have the issue)
* Cilium (v1.8) was added to Typhoon in v1.18.5 in June 2020
and its become more impressive since then. Its currently the
leading CNI provider choice.
* Calico has grown complex, has lots of CRDs, masks its
management complexity with an operator (which we won't use),
doesn't provide multi-arch images, and hasn't been compatible
with Kubernetes v1.23 (with ipvs) for several releases.
* Both have CNCF conformance quirks (flannel used for conformance),
but that's not the main factor in choosing the default
* Use the official Kinvolk Flatcar Linux image on Google Cloud
* Change `os_image` from a custom image name to `flatcar-stable`
(default), `flatcar-beta`, or `flatcar-alpha` (**action required**)
* Change `os_image` from a required to an optional variable
* Promote Typhoon on Flatcar Linux / Google Cloud to stable
* Remove docs about needing to upload a Flatcar Linux image
manually on Google Cloud and drop support for custom images
* Terraform v1.1 changed the behavior of provisioners and
`remote-exec` in a way that breaks support for expansions
in commands (including file provisioner, where `destination`
is part of an `scp` command)
* Terraform will likely revert the change eventually, but I
suspect it will take a while
* Instead, we can stop relying on Terraform's expansion
behavior. `/home/core` is a suitable choice for `$HOME` on
both Flatcar Linux and Fedora CoreOS (harldink `/var/home/core`)
Rel: https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/30243
* Both Flatcar Linux and Fedora CoreOS use systemd-resolved,
but they setup /etc/resolv.conf symlinks differently
* Prefer using /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf directly, which
also updates to reflect runtime changes (e.g. resolvectl)
* Change `enable_aggregation` default from false to true
* These days, Kubernetes control plane components emit annoying
messages related to assumptions baked into the Kubernetes API
Aggregation Layer if you don't enable it. Further the conformance
tests force you to remember to enable it if you care about passing
those
* This change is motivated by eliminating annoyances, rather than
any enthusiasm for Kubernetes' aggregation features
Rel: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/extend-kubernetes/api-extension/apiserver-aggregation/
* Mount both /etc/ssl/certs and /etc/pki into control plane static
pods and kube-proxy, rather than choosing one based a variable
(set based on Flatcar Linux or Fedora CoreOS)
* Remove deprecated `--port` from `kube-scheduler` static Pod
* Update `null` provider to allow use of v3.1.x releases,
instead of being stuck on v2.1.2
* Update min versions in terraform-render-boostrap
https://github.com/poseidon/terraform-render-bootstrap/pull/287
* Document the recommended versions of Terraform cloud providers
* Remove `/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd` mount since Flatcar Linux
uses cgroups v2
* Flatcar Linux's `docker` switched from the `cgroupfs` to
`systemd` driver without notice
* Kubernetes v1.22.0 disabled kube-controller-manager insecure
port, which was used internally for Prometheus metrics scraping
* Configure Prometheus to discover and scrape endpoints for
kube-scheduler and kube-controller-manager via the authenticated
https ports, via bearer token
* Change firewall ports to allow Prometheus (on worker nodes)
to scrape kube-scheduler and kube-controller-manager targets
that run on controller(s) with hostNetwork
* Disable the insecure port on kube-scheduler
* On Fedora CoreOS, Cilium cross-node service IP load balancing
stopped working for a time (first observable as CoreDNS pods
located on worker nodes not being able to reach the kubernetes
API service 10.3.0.1). This turned out to have two parts:
* Fedora CoreOS switched to cgroups v2 by default. In our early
testing with cgroups v2, Calico (default) was used. With the
cgroups v2 change, SELinux policy denied some eBPF operations.
Since fixed in all Fedora CoreOS channels
* Cilium requires new mounts to support cgroups v2, which are
added here

* https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/881
* https://github.com/cilium/cilium/pull/16259
* Add `node_taints` variable to worker modules to set custom
initial node taints on cloud platforms that support auto-scaling
worker pools of heterogeneous nodes (i.e. AWS, Azure, GCP)
* Worker pools could use custom `node_labels` to allowed workloads
to select among differentiated nodes, while custom `node_taints`
allows a worker pool's nodes to be tainted as special to prevent
scheduling, except by workloads that explicitly tolerate the
taint
* Expose `daemonset_tolerations` in AWS, Azure, and GCP kubernetes
cluster modules, to determine whether `kube-system` components
should tolerate the custom taint (advanced use covered in docs)
Rel: #550, #663Closes#429
* Change control plane static pods to mount `/etc/kubernetes/pki`,
instead of `/etc/kubernetes/bootstrap-secrets` to better reflect
their purpose and match some loose conventions upstream
* Place control plane and bootstrap TLS assets and kubeconfig's
in `/etc/kubernetes/pki`
* Mount to `/etc/kubernetes/pki` (rather than `/etc/kubernetes/secrets`)
to match the host location (less surprise)
