Description Abu Kashem 2020-03-06 20:09:12 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1811169 +++

Description of problem:

Currently, /readyz starts reporting failure after ShutdownDelayDuration elapses. The load balancer(s) uses /readyz for health check and are not aware of the shutdown initiation until ShutdownDelayDuration elapses. This does not give the load balancer(s) enough time to detect and react to it.

We expect /readyz to start returning failure as soon as apiserver shutdown is initiated(SIGTERM received). This gives the load balancer a window (defined by ShutdownDelayDuration) to detect that /readyz is red and stop sending traffic to this server.


How reproducible:
Always

Verified with OCP build 4.4.0-0.nightly-2020-03-15-215151, detail see below,

- in one terminal:
  - exec into kube-apiserver pod of master 0
    $ oc rsh -n openshift-kube-apiserver kube-apiserver-keosp1641-wq2sw-master-0
  - execute in pod terminal: 
    sh-4.2# while true; do curl -k https://localhost:6443/readyz; done
    okokokokokok ...

- in other terminal:
$ oc debug node/keosp1641-wq2sw-master-0
Starting pod/keosp1641-wq2sw-master-0-debug ...
To use host binaries, run `chroot /host`
Pod IP: 192.168.0.30
If you don't see a command prompt, try pressing enter.
sh-4.2# chroot /host
sh-4.4# bash
[root@keosp1641-wq2sw-master-0 /]# ps aux | grep " kube-apiserver "

[-]shutdown failed: reason withheld
healthz check failed


The endpoint of readyz will start returning failure as soon as apiserver shutdown is initiated.
