Description huirwang 2021-04-12 07:37:21 UTC

Description of problem:
The outbound traffic was broken intermittently after shutdown one egressIP node

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.8.0-0.ci-2021-04-12-041028

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Patch EgressIPs to 3 nodes manually.
oc get hostsubnet
NAME              HOST              HOST IP         SUBNET          EGRESS CIDRS   EGRESS IPS
compute-0         compute-0         172.31.248.75   10.128.2.0/23                  ["172.31.248.202"]
compute-1         compute-1         172.31.248.80   10.129.2.0/23                  
compute-2         compute-2         172.31.248.86   10.131.0.0/23                  ["172.31.248.203"]
control-plane-0   control-plane-0   172.31.248.81   10.130.0.0/23                  ["172.31.248.201"]
control-plane-1   control-plane-1   172.31.248.83   10.128.0.0/23                  
control-plane-2   control-plane-2   172.31.248.85   10.129.0.0/23 

2. Create a namespace test, patch multiple EgressIPs to "test", then create a pod under test.
oc get netnamespace test
NAME   NETID      EGRESS IPS
test   15436181   ["172.31.248.201","172.31.248.203","172.31.248.202"]

oc get pods -n test -o wide
NAME        READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE   IP            NODE        NOMINATED NODE   READINESS GATES
hello-pod   1/1     Running   0          21m   10.129.2.34   compute-1   <none>           <none>


3. Check the source IP of the outbound traffic---access an ip-echo service which is outside the cluster.
oc rsh -n test hello-pod
/ # while true; do  curl 172.31.249.80:9095 --connect-timeout 2 ;sleep 2 ;echo ""; done
172.31.248.202
172.31.248.203
172.31.248.201
172.31.248.203
172.31.248.203
172.31.248.202
172.31.248.202
172.31.248.201
172.31.248.201
172.31.248.203
We can see the EgressIPs were  load-balanced among different nodes.

4. Shutdown one EgressIP node, here is compute-2

Actual results:
The outbound traffic was intermittently broken.

while true; do  curl 172.31.249.80:9095 --connect-timeout 2 ;sleep 2 ;echo ""; done

Comment 2 Alexander Constantinescu 2021-06-01 18:36:58 UTC

Setting the bug to blocker for 4.8. I thought this PR would get in a while ago (seeing as how I posted it months ago) and hence didn't mark it as such. However, given that we are fast approaching code freeze and this is a regression from 4.7 and we cannot ship openshift-sdn with this problem, I am setting it to blocker so that it shows up on peoples radar.
