* Fix bootstrap error for missing `manifests-networking/crd*yaml`
when `networking = "flannel"`
* Cleanup manifest-networking directory left during bootstrap
* Regressed in v1.18.0 changes for Calico https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/pull/675
* Change kube-proxy, flannel, and calico-node DaemonSet
tolerations to tolerate `node.kubernetes.io/not-ready`
and `node-role.kubernetes.io/master` (i.e. controllers)
explicitly, rather than tolerating all taints
* kube-system DaemonSets will no longer tolerate custom
node taints by default. Instead, custom node taints must
be enumerated to opt-in to scheduling/executing the
kube-system DaemonSets
* Consider setting the daemonset_tolerations variable
of terraform-render-bootstrap at a later date
Background: Tolerating all taints ruled out use-cases
where certain nodes might legitimately need to keep
kube-proxy or CNI networking disabled

* Problem: Fedora CoreOS images are manually uploaded to GCP. When a
cluster is created with a stale image, Zincati immediately checks
for the latest stable image, fetches, and reboots. In practice,
this can unfortunately occur exactly during the initial cluster
bootstrap phase.
* Recommended: Upload the latest Fedora CoreOS image regularly
* Mitigation: Allow a failed bootstrap.service run (which won't touch
the done ConditionalPathExists) to be re-run by running `terraforma apply`
again. Add a known issue to CHANGES
* Update docs to show the current Fedora CoreOS stable version to
reduce likelihood users see this issue
Longer term ideas:
* Ideal: Fedora CoreOS publishes a stable channel. Instances will always
boot with the latest image in a channel. The problem disappears since
it works the same way AWS does
* Timer: Consider some timer-based approach to have zincati delay any
system reboots for the first ~30 min of a machine's life. Possibly just
configured on the controller node https://github.com/coreos/zincati/pull/251
* External coordination: For Container Linux, locksmith filled a similar
role and was disabled to allow CLUO to coordinate reboots. By running
atop Kubernetes, it was not possible for the reboot to occur before
cluster bootstrap
* Rely on https://github.com/coreos/zincati/issues/115 to delay the
reboot since bootstrap involves an SSH session
* Use path-based activation of zincati on controllers and set that
path at the end of the bootstrap process
Rel: https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/239
* Fix issue observed in us-east-1 where AMI filters chose the
latest testing channel release, rather than the stable chanel
* Fedora CoreOS AMI filter selects the latest image with a
matching name, x86_64, and hvm, excluding dev images. Add a
filter for "Fedora CoreOS stable", which seems to be the only
distinguishing metadata indicating the channel
* Fix delete-node service that runs on worker (cloud-only)
shutdown to delete a Kubernetes node. Regressed in #669
(unreleased)
* Use rkt `--exec` to invoke kubectl binary in the kubelet
image
* Use podman `--entrypoint` to invoke the kubectl binary in
the kubelet image
* Recommend that users who have not yet tried Fedora CoreOS or
Flatcar Linux do so. Likely, Container Linux will reach EOL
and platform support / stability ratings will be in a mixed
state. Nevertheless, folks should migrate by September.
* Before Kubernetes v1.18.0, Kubelet only supported kubectl
`--limit-bytes` with the Docker `json-file` log driver so
the Fedora CoreOS default was overridden for conformance.
See https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/pull/642
* Kubelet v1.18+ implemented support for other docker log
drivers, so the Fedora CoreOS default `journald` can be
used again
Rel: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/86367
* Remove docs for the `asset_dir` variable and deprecate
it in CHANGES. It will be removed in an upcoming release
* Typhoon v1.17.0 introduced a new mechanism for managing
and distributing generated assets that stopped relying on
writing out to disk. `asset_dir` became optional and
defaulted to being unset / off (recommended)
* Kubernetes plans to stop releasing the hyperkube container image
* Upstream will continue to publish `kube-apiserver`, `kube-controller-manager`,
`kube-scheduler`, and `kube-proxy` container images to `k8s.gcr.io`
* Upstream will publish Kubelet only as a binary for distros to package,
either as a DEB/RPM on traditional distros or a container image on
container-optimized operating systems
* Typhoon will package the upstream Kubelet (checksummed) and its
dependencies as a container image for use on CoreOS Container Linux,
Flatcar Linux, and Fedora CoreOS
* Update the Typhoon container image security policy to list
`quay.io/poseidon/kubelet`as an official distributed artifact
Hyperkube: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88676

Kubelet Quay Repo: https://quay.io/repository/poseidon/kubelet
* Stop providing example manifests for the Container Linux
Update Operator (CLUO)
* CLUO requires patches to support Kubernetes v1.16+, but the
project and push access is rather unowned
* CLUO hasn't been in active use in our clusters and won't be
relevant beyond Container Linux. Not to say folks can't patch
it and run it on their own. Examples just aren't provided here

* Accept `os_image` "flatcar-stable" and "flatcar-beta" to
use Kinvolk's Flatcar Linux images from the Azure Marketplace
Note: Flatcar Linux Azure Marketplace images require terms be
accepted before use
* Add `worker_node_labels` map from node name to a list of initial
node label strings
* Add `worker_node_taints` map from node name to a list of initial
node taint strings
* Unlike cloud platforms, bare-metal node labels and taints
are defined via a map from node name to list of labels/taints.
Bare-metal clusters may have heterogeneous hardware so per node
labels and taints are accepted
* Only worker node names are allowed. Workloads are not scheduled
on controller nodes so altering their labels/taints isn't suitable
```
module "mercury" {
...
worker_node_labels = {
"node2" = ["role=special"]
}
worker_node_taints = {
"node2" = ["role=special:NoSchedule"]
}
}
```

* Add support for `terraform-provider-azurerm` v2.0+. Require
`terraform-provider-azurerm` v2.0+ and drop v1.x support since
the Azure provider major release is not backwards compatible
* Use Azure's new Linux VM and Linux VM Scale Set resources
* Change controller's Azure disk caching to None
* Associate subnets (in addition to NICs) with security groups
(aesthetic)
* If set, change `worker_priority` from `Low` to `Spot` (action required)
Related:
* https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/azurerm/guides/2.0-upgrade-guide.html
* Add 2 min wait before KubeNodeUnreachable to be less
noisy on premeptible clusters
* Add a BlackboxProbeFailure alert for any failing probes
for services annotated `prometheus.io/probe: true`
* Quay has historically generated ACI signatures for images to
facilitate rkt's notions of verification (it allowed authors to
actually sign images, though `--trust-keys-from-https` is in use
since etcd and most authors don't sign images). OCI standardization
didn't adopt verification ideas and checking signatures has fallen
out of favor.
* Fix an issue where Quay no longer seems to be generating ACI
signatures for new images (e.g. quay.io/coreos/etcd:v.3.4.4)
* Don't be alarmed by rkt `--insecure-options=image`. It refers
to disabling image signature checking (i.e. docker pull doesn't
check signatures either)
* System containers for Kubelet and bootstrap have transitioned
to the docker:// transport, so there is precedent and this brings
all the system containers on Container Linux controllers into
alignment
* On clouds where workers can scale down or be preempted
(AWS, GCP, Azure), shutdown runs delete-node.service to
remove a node a prevent NotReady nodes from lingering
* Add the delete-node.service that wasn't carried over
from Container Linux and port it to use podman
* Allow users to extend the route table using a data reference
and adding route resources (e.g. unusual peering setups)
* Note: Internally connecting AWS clusters can reduce cross-cloud
flexibility and inhibits blue-green cluster patterns. It is not
recommended
* Add Terraform strip markers to consume beginning and
trailing whitespace in templated Kubelet arguments for
podman (Fedora CoreOS only)
* Fix initial `worker_node_labels` being quietly ignored
on Fedora CoreOS cloud platforms that offer the feature
* Close https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/issues/650
* Add docs on manually uploading a Flatcar Linux DigitalOcean
bin image as a custom image and using a data reference
* Set status of Flatcar Linux on DigitalOcean to alpha
* IPv6 is not supported for DigitalOcean custom images
* Fix the last minor issue for Fedora CoreOS clusters to pass CNCF's
Kubernetes conformance tests
* Kubelet supports a seldom used feature `kubectl logs --limit-bytes=N`
to trim a log stream to a desired length. Kubelet handles this in the
CRI driver. The Kubelet docker shim only supports the limit bytes
feature when Docker is configured with the default `json-file` logging
driver
* CNCF conformance tests started requiring limit-bytes be supported,
indirectly forcing the log driver choice until either the Kubelet or
the conformance tests are fixed
* Fedora CoreOS defaults Docker to use `journald` (desired). For now,
as a workaround to offer conformant clusters, the log driver can
be set back to `json-file`. RHEL CoreOS likely won't have noticed the
non-conformance since its using crio runtime
* https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/86367
Note: When upstream has a fix, the aim is to drop the docker config
override and use the journald default
