Summary

kubectl nodewright reset <name> removes every node's state but leaves Status.ConfigUpdates behind. With the keys still recorded, the restarted run treats the package's own interrupt as absent (NodeState.HasInterrupt only reports interrupts matching those keys). A package with its own reboot then completes at (config, complete) and the node is uncordoned without the interrupt ever running.

This is the reset case of defect 3 in #776. The CLI now clears the keys after a full reset succeeds on every node.

Changes

  • operator/cmd/cli/app/reset.go: after the node annotations are reset, merge-patch {"status":{"configUpdates":null}}. It runs independently of --skip-batch-reset, because that flag only governs batch state. It is skipped when resetting any node failed (the remaining nodes still carry state that relies on the keys), on --dry-run, and on the --package path (which has its own code path).
  • operator/cmd/cli/app/reset_test.go: three specs (full reset, with --skip-batch-reset, dry run), and a Patch stub in the existing cordon specs, which now reach the new call.
  • docs/user-guide/cli.md and the command's long help describe the behavior.

Not in this PR

Clearing the keys when a config cycle completes is deliberately left out. Done naively it makes every complete node look unfinished and re-run its own interrupt on the next reconcile; #776 ties that to the per-node interruptComplete field (Option A). The same goes for defect 1 and for node reset (per node, while the keys are per package).

Testing

  • go test ./cmd/cli/... passes. The two clearing specs fail against the unfixed reset.go.
  • golangci-lint run ./cmd/cli/...: 0 issues.
  • Not run: the chainsaw e2e suite, and no real cluster, so the merge patch against the CRD status subresource is covered by the mock only.

Part of #776. Related: #788 (defect 2).

📝 Walkthrough

The reset command now clears recorded config updates after qualifying full and package resets. A full reset clears all entries; a package reset clears only that package’s entry. Patch failures warn without stopping the reset, and a missing NodeWright is ignored. Unit and Chainsaw tests cover the clearing behavior and its conditions. Command help and user documentation describe the change.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to eb7ef

A reset can erase newly recorded config changes, potentially allowing a restarted run to miss a required interrupt. Protect concurrent updates before merging; also clarify that clearing is best-effort.

Address review on NVIDIA#809. When the NodeWright is gone, a full reset still
strips an orphaned cordon, and the status patch then returns NotFound.
That printed a misleading warning although there is nothing to clear.

Treat NotFound as a no-op. Add specs for the skipped paths: a failed
node reset and --package leave Status.ConfigUpdates alone.

Part of NVIDIA#776.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Protect concurrent ConfigUpdates writes during reset.

HandleConfigUpdates can persist a new entry after reset starts and before this patch runs. This unconditional configUpdates:null merge patch can delete that entry. The next reconciliation sees the ConfigMap already synchronized, so it does not restore the entry. The affected node can therefore proceed without its config-derived interrupt.

Capture the NodeWright resource version before resetNodeAnnotations, and apply this clear with that version as an optimistic-concurrency precondition. If the patch conflicts, preserve the current map instead of retrying against the newer version.

The reset change checks out: the clear goes through the nodewrights/status subresource as a merge patch, and configUpdates has been in the NodeWright CRD since operator v0.18.0, so no version gate is needed. Two things inline: the RELEASE_NOTES entry, and --package, which keeps the same bug.

node-state update error occurs. State that this is independent of
--skip-batch-reset, skipped when no dynamic client is available, and that

A reset removes every node's state but left the per-package config
update keys behind. With them present HasInterrupt ignores a package's
own interrupt, so the restarted run could finish without running it.

A full reset clears status.configUpdates; reset --package clears only
that package's keys. Both run after every node reset succeeded, and not
on --dry-run. A missing NodeWright is ignored, other patch failures warn.

reset --package name:version cleared configUpdates[name], which is keyed by
name only, while nodes could still hold another version of the package.
Skip the clear in that case, and reword the docs and help to match.
