Description of problem: We are using a StatefulSet or Deployment with two replicas, with a ClusterIP service, and a Route. One of the Pods is alive and ready. The other Pod is alive but not ready. Before OCP 4.6, network traffic was correctly routed to only the ready Pod. In OCP 4.6, it appears that either Pod can receive traffic through the Route. Traffic from within the cluster which uses the ClusterIP service seems to be handled correctly, leading us to think this is an issue with the Router (i.e. HAProxy). We have seen the incorrect behaviour on OCP 4.6.1, 4.6.3 and 4.6.4. We have seen the correct behaviour on OCP 4.5.17. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): OCP 4.6.1, 4.6.3 and 4.6.4 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: ## Re-create steps Create the following deployment, service, route (on 4.6 to recreate problem, on 4.5 to show it works as expected): ### Deployment Note that the readiness probe here will not pass. ``` apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment metadata: name: nginxdemoshello-deployment labels: app: nginxdemoshello spec: replicas: 2 selector: matchLabels: app: nginxdemoshello template: metadata: labels: app: nginxdemoshello spec: containers: - name: liveness image: nginxdemos/nginx-hello:plain-text readinessProbe: exec: command: - cat - /tmp/ready initialDelaySeconds: 5 periodSeconds: 5 ``` ### Service ``` apiVersion: v1 kind: Service metadata: name: nginxdemoshello-service spec: selector: app: nginxdemoshello ports: - protocol: TCP port: 8080 targetPort: 8080 ``` ### Route NOTE: Update the host with the cluster specific domain: ``` kind: Route apiVersion: route.openshift.io/v1 metadata: name: nginxdemoshello-route spec: host: nginxdemoshello-drb-recreate.apps.<cluster specific domain> to: kind: Service name: nginxdemoshello-service weight: 100 port: targetPort: 8080 wildcardPolicy: None ``` You will now have 2 pods running but not in ready state, 1 service serving them, and a route pointing at the service. ### Steps Create a basic pod and exec in: ``` oc run -it --rm --restart=Never ubi --image=ubi8/ubi sh ``` Within this pod run: ``` curl <pod1ip>:8080 curl <pod2ip>:8080 curl <service cluster ip>:8080 ``` Note as expected the 2 pods return successfully (note that they include their own host ip in the response) and the service correctly fails, as no pods are ready. From outside OCP (i.e. your laptop terminal) run: ``` curl <route host> ``` In some runs, we have seen the issue recreated at this point - despite the fact that the 2 pods are not ready, and the service is correctly not directing to either pod, the route may be directing to a pod, and you get back the response. If you have recreated the issue, you can not that the haproxy.conf file in the haproxy pods in openshift-ingress namespace contains both pods in the app level backends section, when it should be empty. If the route correctly failed, you will have got an 'Application is not available' page response which is correct, as there are no ready pods. Confirm the 2 pods are still not ready. ``` oc get pods -o wide ``` Now run the following (updating the pod-name to match the first of your pods) to make one of the pods ready: ``` oc exec nginxdemoshello-deployment-<pod1specific> -- touch /tmp/ready ``` Confirm that shortly after the changed pod has become ready: ``` oc get pods -o wide ``` Repeat the curls against the 2 pods and the service(from ubi pod), and the route(from laptop) On 4.6 you may now find that the wrong pod is being serviced by the route - it is the not ready pod that responds. If so, you have recreated the issue. Optionally, you can view the haconfig.conf file as above to see it contains the not ready pod. If the correct ready pod responded, run the following commands(update the pod name as specified, noting they run against different pods) to switch which pod is ready: ``` oc exec nginxdemoshello-deployment-<pod1specific> -- rm /tmp/ready oc exec nginxdemoshello-deployment-<pod2specific> -- touch /tmp/ready ``` Repeat the curls. Hopefully now you have recreated the issue on 4.6. On 4.5 the route will behave as expected in all cases. Alternatively, if this still did not recreate the issue (both pods are in the haconfig.conf so its feasible that the correct pod always replies, and I have seen neither pod respond after step 1 though its possible i didnt give it long enough), you can confirm there is a problem by viewing the /var/lib/haproxy/conf/haproxy.conf file on the pods in openshift-ingress. You will note that despite the fact that 1 pod in not ready, it list both pods under the app level backends. On 4.5 you can note that only 1 will be shown. Actual results: Traffic is directed to both ready and non-ready pods Expected results: Traffic directed only to ready pods. Additional info: OCP 4.6 on AWS and private cloud.
Hello Team, Could you please prioritize this bugzilla, because of the high impact Customer showed us and also this case has high visibility to the management on both sides? Thanks in advance for your efforts and support. Kind regards, Roberto Carrieri Escalation Manager Customer Experience & Engagement Mobile: +420.702.269.469
Will look into this immediately.
Is there any update on this issue, please? Have you managed to reproduce it? Very happy to perform additional diagnostics, but hopefully you can re-create based on the above. I'm a little concerned that the "Target Release" has been set to 4.7.0, as we really need to see a fix on OCP 4.6.x, as this appears to be regressed/changed behaviour.
I can reproduce this. This was broken by the switch to endpointslices https://github.com/openshift/router/pull/154 which happened in 4.6. Investigating a fix and will then back port to 4.6.

The procedure would mean that we first make the fix in 4.7 and then backport to 4.6. I plan to have a fix up for review for 4.7 today.
Thanks very much for the update. Assuming this fix is accepted for 4.7, can you give any indication of a timeline for a fix on 4.6? Any information would be appreciated.

Any information > would be appreciated. I just POSTed the PR: https://github.com/openshift/router/pull/229 If this gets reviewed and merged into 4.7 today then I can start the cherry-pick for 4.6. Once picked for 4.6 that needs approval for a 4.6.z stream which may happen tomorrow. Failing that it would be end of next week. Once it is merged into 4.7 I can give a better estimate.
Moving this back to POST as https://github.com/openshift/router/pull/231 needs to be part of the overall change. I was adding tests to origin/e2e to verify the change but that is overkill. PR #231 adds unit tests to the router.
The PR merge made into "4.7.0-0.nightly-2020-12-03-141554" release version. With this payload, it is noted that the fix effectively resolves the problem where the PODs when in a "Not ready" state, the haproxy configuration has an empty backend pool and curl to the external route fails as expected. When one or all the pods are available and in a ready state, The haproxy backend pool gets populated with the entries of the ready pod, and the external route traffic is sent to the specifically ready pods only. * With no pods in the "ready" state: ----- $ oc get clusterversion NAME VERSION AVAILABLE PROGRESSING SINCE STATUS version 4.7.0-0.nightly-2020-12-03-141554 True False 64m Cluster version is 4.7.0-0.nightly-2020-12-03-141554 $ oc create -f nginx-demoshell-deployment.yaml deployment.apps/nginxdemoshello-deployment created $ oc create -f nginx-demoshell-service.yaml service/nginxdemoshello-service created $ oc create -f nginx-demoshell-route.yaml route.route.openshift.io/nginxdemoshello-route created $ oc get pods -o wide NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE IP NODE NOMINATED NODE READINESS GATES nginxdemoshello-deployment-5b46f96478-gwlc7 0/1 Running 0 41s 10.131.0.49 ip-10-0-164-195.us-east-2.compute.internal <none> <none> nginxdemoshello-deployment-5b46f96478-n6wlm 0/1 Running 0 41s 10.129.2.32 ip-10-0-199-23.us-east-2.compute.internal <none> <none> The haproxy configuration does not contain the backend entries.
