Description Maciej Szulik 2019-12-13 15:46:20 UTC
Description of problem:
If you say net.Listen("tcp", "0.0.0.0:10357"), golang will actually create a dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 listening socket. But for historical reasons (having to do with bad IPv6 compat in older kube I think), we default to passing "tcp4" (the default value of configv1.ServingInfo.BindNetwork) instead of "tcp", forcing IPv4-only.

There is no reason these days for servers on the pod network to enforce IPv4-only, so this overrides the default for kube-controller-manager.

Comment 1 Maciej Szulik 2019-12-13 15:47:59 UTC
This was fixed in https://github.com/openshift/cluster-kube-controller-manager-operator/pull/320

Comment 3 zhou ying 2019-12-16 07:28:56 UTC
Confirmed with latest payload: 4.4.0-0.nightly-2019-12-15-184910, the issue has fixed:

Login the master node, check the Listen port:

[root@dhcp-140-138 ~]# oc debug node/ip-xxxxx
Starting pod/ip-10-0-130-121us-east-2computeinternal-debug ...
To use host binaries, run `chroot /host`
Pod IP: 10.0.130.121
If you don't see a command prompt, try pressing enter.
sh-4.2# chroot /host
sh-4.4# netstat -pan |grep 10357
tcp6       0      0 :::10357                :::*                    LISTEN      51788/cluster-polic
