DNM — downstream prototype / payload test vehicle. Do not review for merge yet; if payload results are good this will drive the upstream discussion in kubernetes#141318.

What

Exposes the per-instance aggregated API reachability verdicts already computed by the remote AvailableConditionController as a named readyz check, aggregated-apiservice-reachable:

  • probeable individually at /readyz/aggregated-apiservice-reachable
  • excludable via /readyz?exclude=aggregated-apiservice-reachable
  • registered unconditionally in this prototype (an upstream version would be flag-gated, default off)

Why

The remote availability controller probes each APIService's discovery endpoint from this instance over the same proxy transport — and, via the client-go transport cache (transport/cache.go keys on identical {certs, CA, serverName, DialHolder}), the same pooled http2 connections — used by the aggregation proxy handler. Its verdicts are therefore a truthful per-instance LB signal that covers both halves of OCPBUGS-100065:

  1. During the post-reboot OVN convergence window the probes fail → this kas reports unready → haproxy (which already probes /readyz) keeps it out of the API VIP rotation. Subsumes the effect of OCPBUGS-100065: UPSTREAM: <carry>: require all aggregated apiserver endpoints reachable in readyz check #2730 for LB purposes.
  2. If pooled backend connections silently break after readiness, the probes share the broken pool → the check flips back to unready until the pool recovers — covering the ~45s http2: client connection lost pinning window that is the residual 11-14s tail in every experiment so far (this PR alone, OCPBUGS-100065: UPSTREAM: <carry>: require all aggregated apiserver endpoints reachable in readyz check #2730 alone, this-PR+OCPBUGS-100065: UPSTREAM: <carry>: require all aggregated apiserver endpoints reachable in readyz check #2730). This is the half that previously only OCPBUGS-100065: UPSTREAM: <carry>: kube-aggregator: fast http2 health checking for backend connections #2732 addressed, now covered without any client-go transport API change (addressing the design objection raised against kube-aggregator: detect broken backend HTTP/2 connections faster kubernetes/kubernetes#141320).

Design guards

  • Only FailedDiscoveryCheck unavailability (actual probe failure) makes the check report unready. Structural unavailability (ServiceNotFound, MissingEndpoints, ...) is ignored so all instances don't drop out of the LB at once while a backend is absent cluster-wide (e.g. install time).
  • Never-probed APIServices are treated as reachable — a freshly started apiserver isn't blocked on the first controller sync.
  • Known residual coupling: a genuine cluster-wide backend network failure would still fail the check on all instances. Acceptable for the prototype; the upstream version would be flag-gated so operators choose.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a readiness check that reports when aggregated API services cannot be reached.
    • Readiness status now identifies services failing discovery checks and updates as services recover.
    • Unavailable services are reported consistently and in sorted order.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved readiness reporting by excluding unprobed or structurally unavailable services from reachability failures.

…eadyz check

Expose the per-instance aggregated API reachability verdicts already
computed by the remote AvailableConditionController as a named readyz
check, aggregated-apiservice-reachable, individually probeable at
/readyz/aggregated-apiservice-reachable and excludable via
/readyz?exclude=aggregated-apiservice-reachable.

The remote availability controller probes each APIService's discovery
endpoint from this apiserver instance over the same proxy transport --
and, via the client-go transport cache, the same pooled http2
connections -- used by the aggregation proxy handler. Its verdicts are
therefore a truthful per-instance signal of aggregated API
reachability that an external load balancer can consume:

- during a local dataplane outage (e.g. the node's pod network has not
  converged after a reboot) the probes fail and the check reports
  unready, keeping this instance out of the load balancer rotation;
- if pooled backend connections silently break after readiness, the
  probes share the broken pool, so the check flips back to unready
  until the pool recovers -- covering the window in which broken
  connections stay pinned for ReadIdleTimeout+PingTimeout (~45s) and
  every proxied request fails with 'http2: client connection lost'.

Only unavailability caused by an actual probe failure
(FailedDiscoveryCheck) makes the check report unready. Structural
unavailability (missing Service or Endpoints, e.g. while an aggregated
apiserver is still being deployed at install time) is deliberately
ignored so that all instances do not drop out of the load balancer at
once while a backend is absent cluster-wide. APIServices never probed
are treated as reachable, so a freshly started apiserver is not
blocked on the first controller sync.

Downstream prototype for OCPBUGS-100065; upstream discussion in
kubernetes#141318 (alternative to kubernetes#141320
that requires no client-go transport API changes).

Walkthrough

The aggregator now tracks APIService unavailability reasons and registers an aggregated-apiservice-reachable readiness check. The check reports services that fail discovery probes. Tests cover state changes, filtering, recovery, forgetting, and sorted errors.

Changes

Aggregated API Service Readiness

Layer / File(s) Summary
Availability reason tracking
staging/src/k8s.io/kube-aggregator/pkg/controllers/status/metrics/metrics.go
Metrics records APIService unavailability reasons, filters services by reason, sorts results, and removes stale records.
Aggregated APIService readiness check
staging/src/k8s.io/kube-aggregator/pkg/apiserver/readyz.go
Adds NewAggregatedAPIServiceReachableCheck, which reports services with the FailedDiscoveryCheck reason and ignores unprobed or structurally unavailable services.
Readiness registration and validation
staging/src/k8s.io/kube-aggregator/pkg/apiserver/apiserver.go, staging/src/k8s.io/kube-aggregator/pkg/apiserver/readyz_test.go
Registers the readiness check during server construction and tests health states, recovery, forgotten services, naming, and sorted error output.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 80d7c

The change adds a per-instance aggregated API reachability check, but the endpoint is missing when the remote availability controller is disabled, and metrics can omit unavailable services with no reason recorded. These bounded correctness issues should be fixed before merging.

Register the check outside the remote-controller condition.

If DisableRemoteAvailableConditionController is true, this code does not register /readyz/aggregated-apiservice-reachable. This conflicts with the prototype requirement that the check is unconditionally registered. Register it after the conditional block. With no remote verdicts, the check returns healthy.

Assert the reported order.

This case claims sorted output, but the assertions only check name membership. Reversed or unstable output passes. Assert the complete ordered list, or assert that the OAuth APIService occurs before the Route APIService in err.Error().

Keep UnknownReason when the condition reason is empty.

If condition.Reason is empty, Line 113 overwrites UnknownReason with "". Lines 230-232 then delete the reason entry. A query for UnavailableAPIServices("UnknownReason") omits an APIService that is unavailable with no recorded reason.

Only replace the default when condition.Reason != "".

Payload validation results: this PR alone — hypothesis not confirmed

10x /payload-aggregate periodic-ci-openshift-release-main-nightly-5.0-e2e-metal-ipi-upgrade-ovn-ipv6 (run page, aggregator). The aggregator itself reported FAILURE only because it hit its own 7h pod timeout waiting for two slow runs — no analysis was produced; disruption data below was extracted directly from the run artifacts. 8 full-data runs, 1 partial, 1 install infra-flake with no data.

Analysis

The shared-pool hypothesis (the readyz check flipping unready during post-readiness pool breakage would let haproxy route around the affected kube-apiserver) did not hold in practice. The 10s run shows the familiar signature — timeout awaiting response headers503 ... http2: client connection lost — spanning ~36s (14:06:04→14:06:40), not cut short. The end-to-end detection loop is too slow:

  • remote availability controller re-probes event-driven + 30s resync, 5s probe timeout,
  • plus haproxy fall 3 × inter 5s ≈ 15s to eject,
  • total ≈ 20-50s — the same order as the ~45s http2 pinning it is meant to mask.

In simple numbers: this PR alone vs baseline

baseline #2748 alone
median disruption per upgrade ~5-10s ~0s
runs with any noticeable disruption (≥5s) most ~2 in 10
runs ≥10s (SLO-relevant) 3-5 in 10 1-2 in 10
worst case 16s+ ~10-11s
  • Typical upgrade: ~10x better — disruption drops from ~5-10s to ~0-1s in 7 of 9 measured runs.
  • Bad-case frequency: ~2-3x better — ≥10s events go from roughly every second/third upgrade to roughly one in ten.
  • Worst case: only ~30% better — the ~10s tail survives, because it is caused by the ~45s http2 connection pinning that no readiness signal can outrun.

One-sentence summary: this PR alone eliminates the common disruption almost entirely, but leaves a ~10s worst-case hit in about 1 of 10 upgrades — closing that last gap needs the fast http2 health-check change (#2732), which is also a downstream carry and does not strictly require upstream acceptance either.
