Summary

Follow-up to #462, as discussed in open-cluster-management-io/ocm#1688.

agentConfiguration.bindConfiguration from #462 has one health probe port for all klusterlet agents. That works in Singleton mode, where there is only one agent pod. In Default mode, the registration and work agents are two separate pods. With hostNetwork: true they share the node's ports, so when both land on the same node the second one fails with bind: address already in use on the same healthProbePort. I reproduced this on kind while wiring #462 into ocm#1688.

This PR adds a separate bind configuration for each agent, following the ClusterManager pattern:

spec:
  agentConfiguration:
    # Singleton mode: klusterlet-agent
    bindConfiguration:
      healthProbePort: 9443
      hostNetwork: true
    # Default mode: one per agent pod
    registrationAgentConfiguration:
      bindConfiguration:
        healthProbePort: 9443
        hostNetwork: true
    workAgentConfiguration:
      bindConfiguration:
        healthProbePort: 9444
        hostNetwork: true

How ClusterManager handles this

ClusterManager doesn't have this problem because each webhook server has its own bind configuration, so users can give each one its own ports when they use host networking:

  • API: DefaultClusterManagerConfiguration has registrationWebhookConfiguration, workWebhookConfiguration and addonWebhookConfiguration, and each wraps its own BindConfiguration with healthProbePort, metricsPort and hostNetwork:
    // DefaultClusterManagerConfiguration represents customized configurations for clustermanager in the Default mode.
    type DefaultClusterManagerConfiguration struct {
    // RegistrationWebhookConfiguration represents the customized webhook-server configuration of registration.
    // +optional
    RegistrationWebhookConfiguration DefaultWebhookConfiguration `json:"registrationWebhookConfiguration,omitempty"`
    // WorkWebhookConfiguration represents the customized webhook-server configuration of work.
    // +optional
    WorkWebhookConfiguration DefaultWebhookConfiguration `json:"workWebhookConfiguration,omitempty"`
    // AddonWebhookConfiguration represents the customized webhook-server configuration of addons.
    // +optional
    AddonWebhookConfiguration DefaultWebhookConfiguration `json:"addonWebhookConfiguration,omitempty"`
    }
    // HostedClusterManagerConfiguration represents customized configurations we need to set for clustermanager in the Hosted mode.
    type HostedClusterManagerConfiguration struct {
    // RegistrationWebhookConfiguration represents the customized webhook-server configuration of registration.
    // +optional
    RegistrationWebhookConfiguration HostedWebhookConfiguration `json:"registrationWebhookConfiguration,omitempty"`
    // WorkWebhookConfiguration represents the customized webhook-server configuration of work.
    // +optional
    WorkWebhookConfiguration HostedWebhookConfiguration `json:"workWebhookConfiguration,omitempty"`
    }
    // BindConfiguration represents customization of server bindings
    type BindConfiguration struct {
    // Port represents the primary bind port of a server. The default value is 9443.
    // +optional
    // +kubebuilder:default=9443
    // +kubebuilder:validation:Maximum=65535
    Port int32 `json:"port,omitempty"`
    // HealthProbePort represents the bind port of a webhook-server's healthcheck endpoint. The default value is 8000.
    // Healthchecks may be disabled by setting a value less than or equal to 0.
    // +optional
    // +kubebuilder:default=8000
    // +kubebuilder:validation:Maximum=65535
    HealthProbePort int32 `json:"healthProbePort"`
    // MetricsPort represents the bind port for a webhook-server's metric endpoint. The default value is 8080.
    // Metrics may be disabled by setting a value less than or equal to 0.
    // +optional
    // +kubebuilder:default=8080
    // +kubebuilder:validation:Maximum=65535
    MetricsPort int32 `json:"metricsPort"`
    // HostNetwork enables running webhook pods in host networking mode.
    // This may be required in some installations, such as EKS with Calico CNI,
    // to allow the API Server to communicate with the webhook pods.
    // +optional
    HostNetwork bool `json:"hostNetwork,omitempty"`
    }
    // DefaultWebhookConfiguration represents customization of webhook servers running in default installation mode
    type DefaultWebhookConfiguration struct {
    // BindConfiguration represents server bind configuration for the webhook server
    BindConfiguration *BindConfiguration `json:"bindConfiguration,omitempty"`
    }
  • ocm: the operator converts each webhook's configuration on its own, so each deployment gets its own ports:
    https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/ocm/blob/cfe717c8629f89e7be56be9e926ef294a98f163d/pkg/operator/operators/clustermanager/controllers/clustermanagercontroller/clustermanager_controller.go#L470-L474
    https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/ocm/blob/cfe717c8629f89e7be56be9e926ef294a98f163d/pkg/operator/operators/clustermanager/controllers/clustermanagercontroller/clustermanager_controller.go#L518-L533

Changes

I didn't add a CEL rule to reject the same port on both agents. Whether they clash depends on scheduling (they only clash on the same node), and ClusterManager doesn't validate this either. The field docs say to use different ports when both agents use hostNetwork.

Testing

  • make update: only the expected files change (types, deepcopy, model names, CRD)
  • make verify: passes
  • make test-integration: passes, including new specs for per-agent ports with hostNetwork, defaulting of a per-agent healthProbePort, and rejecting a privileged port in a per-agent configuration

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added separate bind settings for registration and work agents in Default mode, including health-probe, host-network, and metrics options.
    • Shared bind settings continue to apply to the Singleton-mode agent and serve as defaults for Default-mode agents without their own settings. Per-agent settings are ignored in Singleton mode.
    • When both agents use host networking on the same node, configure distinct health-probe ports to avoid conflicts.

In Default mode the registration and work agents run as separate pods.
With hostNetwork enabled they share the node's ports, so a single
agentConfiguration.bindConfiguration makes both bind the same
healthProbePort and the second one fails with "address already in use"
when they land on the same node.

Add optional registrationAgentConfiguration and workAgentConfiguration,
each with its own bindConfiguration, following the per-webhook
bindConfiguration in DefaultClusterManagerConfiguration. The existing
bindConfiguration still applies to the klusterlet-agent in Singleton
mode and to any Default mode agent that does not set its own.

Walkthrough

The klusterlet API adds separate bind configurations for registration and work agents in Default mode. Shared bind settings remain applicable in Singleton mode and as a fallback in Default mode. Generated copy methods and integration tests cover the new configuration.

Document the metrics-port default alongside the health-probe guidance.

The field documentation tells users to set different healthProbePort values when both agents use hostNetwork on the same node. Both per-agent metricsPort fields default to 8080, so the same guidance applies to metrics ports. Omitting both leaves both defaults in effect, and the guidance does not mention them.
