Currently kubelet volume management works on the concept of desired
and actual world of states. The volume manager periodically compares the
two worlds and perform volume mount/unmount and/or attach/detach
operations. When kubelet restarts, the cache of those two worlds are
gone. Although desired world can be recovered through apiserver, actual
world can not be recovered which may cause some volumes cannot be cleaned
up if their information is deleted by apiserver. This change adds the
reconstruction of the actual world by reading the pod directories from
disk. The reconstructed volume information is added to both desired
world and actual world if it cannot be found in either world. The rest
logic would be as same as before, desired world populator may clean up
the volume entry if it is no longer in apiserver, and then volume
manager should invoke unmount to clean it up.
Modify attach/detach controller to keep track of volumes to report
attached in Node VolumeToAttach status.
Modify kubelet volume manager to wait for volume to show up in Node
VolumeToAttach status.
Implement exponential backoff for errors in volume manager and attach
detach controller
This commit adds a new volume manager in kubelet that synchronizes
volume mount/unmount (and attach/detach, if attach/detach controller
is not enabled).
This eliminates the race conditions between the pod creation loop
and the orphaned volumes loops. It also removes the unmount/detach
from the `syncPod()` path so volume clean up never blocks the
`syncPod` loop.
