Description Miciah Dashiel Butler Masters 2021-02-19 05:43:45 UTC
The "[sig-arch] Managed cluster should have no crashlooping pods in core namespaces over four minutes" CI test is failing frequently.  In particular, the test fails often with pods in the openshift-marketplace namespace pending the entire time.  See these search results:
https://search.ci.openshift.org/?search=Pod+openshift-marketplace%2F%5B%5E+%5D%2B+was+pending+entire+time&maxAge=336h&context=1&type=bug%2Bjunit&name=4.6&maxMatches=5&maxBytes=20971520&groupBy=job


For example, https://prow.ci.openshift.org/view/gs/origin-ci-test/logs/release-openshift-ocp-installer-e2e-azure-4.6/1359736927032446976 has the following error:

    fail [github.com/openshift/origin/test/extended/operators/cluster.go:151]: Expected
        <[]string | len:1, cap:1>: [
            "Pod openshift-marketplace/community-operators-zxvzd was pending entire time: unknown error",
        ]
    to be empty

Bug 1882839 has a report of earlier failures where community-operators pods were crashlooping.

Checking the logs for the given example, it looks like the test is failing pods that started -- and are still pending -- within seconds of the check:

Checking the code, it seems like release-4.6 is missing some logic, which exists in master, to prevent such pods from failing the test:
- master: https://github.com/openshift/origin/blob/7e958d0a1fddefe8f47c50c40c33a9c5096f2d75/test/extended/operators/cluster.go#L140
- release-4.6: https://github.com/openshift/origin/blob/ae4a31dc9325a685e050768d80670071c242e6d8/test/extended/operators/cluster.go#L134

It looks like there's already an open PR against test tests in release-4.6: https://github.com/openshift/origin/pull/25600

If it looks good, maybe we can push it through.
