When kubelet restarts, all the information about the volumes will be
gone from actual/desired states. When update node status with mounted
volumes, the volume list might be empty although there are still volumes
are mounted and in turn causing master to detach those volumes since
they are not in the mounted volumes list. This fix is to make sure only
update mounted volumes list after reconciler starts sync states process.
This sync state process will scan the existing volume directories and
reconstruct actual states if they are missing.
This PR also fixes the problem during orphaned pods' directories. In
case of the pod directory is unmounted but has not yet deleted (e.g.,
interrupted with kubelet restarts), clean up routine will delete the
directory so that the pod directoriy could be cleaned up (it is safe to
delete directory since it is no longer mounted)
The third issue this PR fixes is that during reconstruct volume in
actual state, mounter could not be nil since it is required for creating
container.VolumeMap. If it is nil, it might cause nil pointer exception
in kubelet.
Details are in proposal PR #33203
We had another bug where we confused the hostname with the NodeName.
To avoid this happening again, and to make the code more
self-documenting, we use types.NodeName (a typedef alias for string)
whenever we are referring to the Node.Name.
A tedious but mechanical commit therefore, to change all uses of the
node name to use types.NodeName
Also clean up some of the (many) places where the NodeName is referred
to as a hostname (not true on AWS), or an instanceID (not true on GCE),
etc.
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.
