CVO log file

Description of problem:
When using a dummy cincinnati graph which includes invalid conditional edges, CVO keeps restarting and goes to CrashLoopBackOff eventually.

Cincinnati graph is available online: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shellyyang1989/upgrade-cincy/master/cincy-conditional-edge-invalid.json

Version-Release number of the following components:
4.10.0-0.nightly-2021-11-26-145635

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Prepare a dummy cincinnati graph which should have invalid conditional edge in it, like https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shellyyang1989/upgrade-cincy/master/cincy-conditional-edge-invalid.json

2. Patch cluster to use the graph
# oc patch clusterversion/version --patch '{"spec":{"upstream":"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shellyyang1989/upgrade-cincy/master/cincy-conditional-edge-invalid.json"}}' --type=merge

Actual results:
CVO crashes.

# oc get all -n openshift-cluster-version
NAME                                            READY   STATUS             RESTARTS       AGE
pod/cluster-version-operator-7b58db6899-sjsnh   0/1     CrashLoopBackOff   32 (90s ago)   28h

replicaset.apps/cluster-version-operator-7b58db6899   1         1         0       28h


Expected results:
CVO can detect incorrect configuration and prompt errors

Additional info:
Please attach logs from ansible-playbook with the -vvv flag

Comment 4 Yang Yang 2021-12-02 06:20:54 UTC
Verifying with 4.10.0-0.nightly-2021-12-01-164437

1. Install a cluster with 4.10.0-0.nightly-2021-12-01-164437
# oc get clusterversion
NAME      VERSION                              AVAILABLE   PROGRESSING   SINCE   STATUS
version   4.10.0-0.nightly-2021-12-01-164437   True        False         86m     Cluster version is 4.10.0-0.nightly-2021-12-01-164437

2. Patch to use the dummy cincinnati graph

# oc adm upgrade --include-not-recommended
Cluster version is 4.10.0-0.nightly-2021-12-01-164437

Upstream: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shellyyang1989/upgrade-cincy/master/cincy-conditional-edge-invalid.json
Channel: stable-4.10
No updates available. You may force an upgrade to a specific release image, but doing so may not be supported and may result in downtime or data loss.

No updates which are not recommended based on your cluster configuration are available.

So, cvo drops all the invalid conditional edges.

3. Check CVO

# oc get all -n openshift-cluster-version
NAME                                            READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
pod/cluster-version-operator-6f5d9777dc-j7vvj   1/1     Running   0          109m

NAME                               TYPE        CLUSTER-IP     EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)    AGE
service/cluster-version-operator   ClusterIP   172.30.137.0   <none>        9099/TCP   109m

NAME                                       READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE
deployment.apps/cluster-version-operator   1/1     1            1           110m

NAME                                                  DESIRED   CURRENT   READY   AGE
replicaset.apps/cluster-version-operator-6f5d9777dc   1         1         1       109m

CVO is running well. Moving it to verified state.
