* Fix issue (present since bootkube->bootstrap switch) where
controller asset copy could fail if /etc/kubernetes/manifests
wasn't created in time on platforms using path activation for
the Kubelet (observed on DigitalOcean, also possible on
bare-metal)
* Drop `node-role.kubernetes.io/master` and
`node-role.kubernetes.io/node` node labels
* Kubelet (v1.16) now rejects the node labels used
in the kubectl get nodes ROLES output
* https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/75457
* Rename render module from bootkube to bootstrap. Avoid
confusion with the kubernetes-incubator/bootkube tool since
it is no longer used
* Use the poseidon/terraform-render-bootstrap Terraform module
(formerly poseidon/terraform-render-bootkube)
* https://github.com/poseidon/terraform-render-bootkube/pull/149
* Run a kube-apiserver, kube-scheduler, and kube-controller-manager
static pod on each controller node. Previously, kube-apiserver was
self-hosted as a DaemonSet across controllers and kube-scheduler
and kube-controller-manager were a Deployment (with 2 or
controller_count many replicas).
* Remove bootkube bootstrap and pivot to self-hosted
* Remove pod-checkpointer manifests (no longer needed)

* For Fedora CoreOS, only HTTPS downloads are available.
Any iPXE firmware must be compiled to support TLS fetching.
* For Container Linux, using public kernel/initramfs images
defaults to using HTTPS, but can be set to HTTP for iPXE
firmware that hasn't been custom compiled to support TLS
* Kubelets can hit the ContainerManager Delegation issue and fail
to start (noted in 72c94f1c6). Its unclear why this occurs only
to some Kubelets (possibly an ordering concern)
* QoS cgroups remain a goal
* When a controller node is affected, bootstrapping fails, which
makes other development harder. Temporarily disable QoS on
controllers only. This should safeguard bring-up and hopefully
still allow the issue to occur on some workers for debugging
* Use the xz compressed images published by Fedora testing,
instead of gzippped tarballs. This is possible because the
initramfs now supports xz and coreos-installer 0.8 was added
* Separate bios and uefi raw images are no longer needed
* First semi-working cluster using 30.307-metal-bios
* Enable CPU, Memory, and BlockIO accounting
* Mount /var/lib/kubelet with `rshare` so mounted tmpfs Secrets
(e.g. serviceaccount's) are visible within appropriate containers
* SELinux relabel /etc/kubernetes so install-cni init containers
can write the CNI config to the host /etc/kubernetes/net.d
* SELinux relabel /var/lib/kubelet so ConfigMaps can be read
by containers
* SELinux relabel /opt/cni/bin so install-cni containers can
write CNI binaries to the host
* Set net.ipv4_conf.all.rp_filter to 1 (not 2, loose mode) to
satisfy Calico requirement
* Enable the QoS cgroup hierarchy for pod workloads (kubepods,
burstable, besteffort). Mount /sys/fs/cgroup and
/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd into the Kubelet. Its still rather racy
whether Kubelet will fail on ContainerManager Delegation
* Allow updating terraform-provider-ct to any release
beyond v0.3.2, but below v1.0. This relaxes the prior
constraint that allowed only v0.3.y provider versions
* Run kube-apiserver as a non-root user (nobody). User
no longer needs to bind low number ports.
* On most platforms, the kube-apiserver load balancer listens
on 6443 and fronts controllers with kube-apiserver pods using
port 6443. Google Cloud TCP proxy load balancers cannot listen
on 6443. However, GCP's load balancer can be made to listen on
443, while kube-apiserver uses 6443 across all platforms.
* For Container Linux or Flatcar Linux alpha/beta/stable,
continue using the `cgroupfs` driver
* For Fedora Atomic, continue using the `systemd` driver
* For Flatcar Linux Edge, use the `systemd` driver
* Replace v0.11 bracket type hints with Terraform v0.12 list expressions
* Use expression syntax instead of interpolated strings, where suggested
* Update bare-metal tutorial
* Define `clc_snippets` type constraint map(list(string))
* Define Terraform and plugin version requirements in versions.tf
* Require matchbox ~> 0.3.0 to support Terraform v0.12
* Require ct ~> 0.3.2 to support Terraform v0.12
* Fix to remove a trailing slash that was erroneously introduced
in the scripting that updated from v1.14.1 to v1.14.2
* Workaround before this fix was to re-run `terraform init`
* Change flannel port from the kernel default 8472 to the
IANA assigned VXLAN port 4789
* Update firewall rules or security groups for VXLAN
* Why now? Calico now offers its own VXLAN backend so
standardizing on the IANA port will simplify config
* https://github.com/coreos/flannel/blob/master/Documentation/backends.md#vxlan
* Add an `enable_aggregation` variable to enable the kube-apiserver
aggregation layer for adding extension apiservers to clusters
* Aggregation is **disabled** by default. Typhoon recommends you not
enable aggregation. Consider whether less invasive ways to achieve your
goals are possible and whether those goals are well-founded
* Enabling aggregation and extension apiservers increases the attack
surface of a cluster and makes extensions a part of the control plane.
Admins must scrutinize and trust any extension apiserver used.
* Passing a v1.14 CNCF conformance test requires aggregation be enabled.
Having an option for aggregation keeps compliance, but retains the
stricter security posture on default clusters
