Summary

Resolve the nodewright API group by discovery instead of assuming Skyhook, read the runtime-required taint from the operator Deployment instead of hardcoding its key, and carry the pin forward to v0.19.0.

Motivation / Context

The deployment readiness gate polled skyhook.nvidia.com/v1alpha1 Skyhook and gated on a hardcoded skyhook.nvidia.com taint key. Operator v0.18.0 renames the kind to nodewright.nvidia.com/v1alpha1 NodeWright and writes completion status only there, and moves the default runtime-required taint key to nodewright.nvidia.com — so both reads missed and a fully tuned cluster timed out after the 8m poll budget.

This restores the validator work from #2597, which was live-validated end to end on a bare-metal GB300 NVL72 (deployment 4/4, conformance 5/5, performance 1/1) but became unmergeable when the pin rolled back to v0.17.1 in #2633: its chainsaw assert on NodeWright was correct only for a v0.18.0+ pin. Moving the pin forward is what makes it correct again.

Fixes: #2593
Related: #2594, #2597, #2599, #1844

  • CLI (cmd/aicr, pkg/cli)
  • API server (cmd/aicrd, pkg/server)
  • Recipe engine / data (pkg/recipe)
  • Bundlers (pkg/bundler, pkg/component/*)

  • Validator (pkg/validator)
  • Docs/examples (docs/, examples/)
  • Other: pkg/upgrade, validators/deployment, tests/uat, tools/cleanup

Implementation Notes

Validator. resolveNodewrightGVR discovery-gates nodewright.nvidia.com/v1alpha1 first, falls back to skyhook.nvidia.com/v1alpha1, skips only when neither group is served, and fails closed on any non-NotFound discovery error. runtimeRequiredTaints reads RUNTIME_REQUIRED_TAINT from the operator Deployment, because --workload-gate is applied at bundle time and never reaches the recipe the validator is handed; it gates on that taint plus the legacy key the operator still removes during its deprecation window. Both fail closed. Ported onto main's gpuReadinessProbe registry, using the same derive-inside-run() idiom the RDMA probe already uses.

Beyond the validator, the legacy names had leaked into surfaces #2597 never touched:

  • tests/uat/lib/phases.sh matched only the legacy taint prefix, so a node cordoned by v0.18.0 tuning reported ok (N gpu-worker nodes ready). A false pass in UAT gating, now covered by a test that fails without the fix.
  • tools/cleanup reaped no nodewright.nvidia.com CRDs, leaving them behind on teardown.
  • UAT debug capture dumped only the legacy kind, which is empty on v0.18.0 — actively misleading at the moment of failure.
  • Conformance assert-crds.yaml (×3) asserted the legacy CRD rather than the kind the operator writes status on.

Pin to v0.19.0. v0.19.0 moves only the operator image and adds an optional runtimeRequiredCordonAfter field under templates/ (not crds/, so Helm applies it normally). Its boundary is therefore safe. It does change drain timing — an interrupt now begins roughly the longest terminationGracePeriodSeconds on the node later, and spec.drainConfig.timeout bounds time-to-drain rather than time-to-accept — which is recorded in the summary rather than as a step.

Matcher fix. Recording two boundaries exposed a flaw. multiple-boundaries exists because composing two migrations is wrong — an intermediate record's steps never run on a jump straight past it — but it counted every crossed boundary regardless of verdict. A safe record carries no steps by construction, so crossing one composes nothing and skips nothing; yet v0.16.0 -> v0.19.0 reported blocked and named v0.18.0 as somewhere to stop, when landing there changes no work. A crossed safe boundary no longer counts toward the skip rule when one substantive record describes the whole move.

The reduction sits after the blocked checks, so an authored block still outranks everything, and two substantive boundaries still block. An earlier, broader version of this filter broke exactly that property and was caught by the existing suite; both are now pinned as control cases.

Jump Verdict
v0.16.0 -> v0.19.0 manual, 4 steps
v0.17.1 -> v0.18.0 manual, 4 steps
v0.18.0 -> v0.19.0 safe, verified

Also: AICR's webhook.removalImage override is dropped — v0.18.0 qualifies the image upstream, and the BOM confirms an identical digest. The pin bump reopened the transition record exactly as designed, retiring its now-stale readiness steps.

Testing

go test -count=1 ./pkg/recipe/ ./pkg/bundler/ ./pkg/upgrade/ ./validators/... ./tests/uat/
golangci-lint -c .golangci.yaml run ./pkg/upgrade/... ./validators/...   # v2.13.2: 0 issues
./tools/check-upgrade-records
make tuning-check bom-pinning-check license check-agents-sync check-docs-mdx
AICR_UPDATE_GOLDEN=1 go test ./pkg/recipe/ ./pkg/bundler/ -count=1
make bom-docs   # nodewright-operator -> v0.19.0
bash tools/cleanup_test.sh

Coverage, no decreases:

Package Before After
validators/deployment 74.0% 76.2% (+2.2%)
pkg/snapshotter 67.4% 67.6% (+0.2%)
pkg/upgrade 97.4% 97.4% (loneSubstantive 100%)

The UAT cordon fix was verified adversarially: with the fix reverted, the new case fails with reason "ok (2 gpu-worker nodes ready)" does not contain "cordoned".

Not run locally: make qualify cannot complete on this workstation for reasons independent of this change, all reproduced on origin/main — apidiff/oasdiff not installed, license-check tripping on an untracked local ansible-venv/, pkg/oci asserting local helm v4.2.0 against the pinned v4.3.0, and lint-yaml exceeding the argument limit on untracked local directories. CI is the authority on those.

Risk Assessment

  • Low — Isolated change, well-tested, easy to revert
  • Medium — Touches multiple components or has broader impact
  • High — Breaking change, affects critical paths, or complex rollout

Rollout notes: This moves the pinned operator two minors, so bundles change. The validator reads either API group, so clusters on v0.17.x keep working through the fallback. Rebased onto main after #2772 landed; both goldens and the BOM were regenerated against the merged tree.

Two things deliberately not done:

  1. The kind: Skyhook CRs under nodewright-customizations and rdma-netns-exclusive are unchanged. The operator mirrors them, so v0.18.0/v0.19.0 work — but they must be renamed before v0.20.0 removes the group. That is nodewright v0.18.0 upgrade changed the CR status contract (Skyhook -> NodeWright); legacy status never populates #2594, and fix(validator): read NodeWright CR and configured runtime-required taint #2597 scoped it out for the same reason.
  2. UAT node pools keep pre-tainting with the legacy key. Verified against the operator source (skyhook_controller.go: "Remove every recognised runtime-required taint, not just the configured one"), so it converges. Re-keying live cluster provisioning is not something that can be validated locally.

One follow-up worth filing: AICR's tuning CRs declare interrupts and set no spec.drainConfig.timeout, so post-v0.19.0 an undrainable pod holds a node in in_progress unbounded, against a GPUReadinessTimeout of 8m sized for one reboot.

Checklist

How to refresh evidence

Run on a cluster matching the recipe's criteria:

aicr snapshot -o snapshot.yaml
# Profiled families (AKS/GKE gpuStack): hydrate the recipe with the
# pointer's recorded 'profile:' selection first — validating the raw
# overlay resolves only the declaration default, and 'aicr validate'
# has no --profile flag. AKS additionally needs the pool projection
# (GKE uses the plain snapshot above):
#   az aks nodepool list -g <rg> --cluster-name <cluster> -o json > pools.json
#   aicr snapshot --aks-gpu-pools pools.json -o snapshot.yaml
#   aicr recipe -s snapshot.yaml --intent <intent> [--platform <platform>] \
#     --profile <name>=<value> -o recipe.yaml
# State the target leaf's intent/platform explicitly (the snapshot
# fingerprint supplies service/accelerator/OS but intent and platform
# default to 'any') and pass -r recipe.yaml below instead of the raw
# overlay.
aicr validate \
  -r recipes/overlays/<slug>.yaml \
  -s snapshot.yaml \
  --emit-attestation ./out \
  --push ghcr.io/<your-fork>/aicr-evidence
# Copy to the per-source path printed in the emit 'copyTo' hint:
#   recipes/evidence/<slug>/<source>/<bundle-digest>.yaml

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request updates deployment readiness for the Skyhook-to-NodeWright migration. It adds API discovery, version-gated fallback, runtime-taint resolution, taint validation, and stale-taint cleanup. It updates upgrade matching, operator recipes, CRD assertions, image data, documentation, and test coverage. Cleanup protects both CRD groups.

Explanation

The PR still contains changes with no demonstrated coding requirement in [#2593]. pkg/upgrade/match.go and its tests change upgrade-boundary composition. pkg/snapshotter/agent.go and its tests change taint input validation. recipes/components/nodewright-operator/values.yaml removes webhook.removalImage. recipes/components/nodewright-operator/upgrades.yaml changes Flux and upgrade workflow guidance. The broad stale-taint cleanup in pkg/bundler/deployer/helm/templates/deploy.sh.tmpl also extends beyond the issue's NodeWright resource selection, legacy fallback, and health-check assertion requirements.

Resolution

Remove the unrelated upgrade matching, snapshotter validation, webhook, Flux and upgrade-workflow, and broad stale-taint changes from this PR, or link each change to a coding issue that requires it. Retain the [#2593] readiness implementation, legacy fallback, related health-check updates, and their tests.

Handle an empty RUNTIME_REQUIRED_TAINT value instead of failing closed.

When the first matching EnvVar has an empty Value, runtimeRequiredTaints passes it to snapshotter.ParseTaint, which returns taint string cannot be empty. The validator then returns ErrCodeInvalidRequest instead of using the chart defaults. Treat an empty value as unconfigured, matching remove_stale_nodewright_taints.

MINOR: This newly added sentence calls v0.18.0 "the pinned version," but this patch sets the registry pin to v0.19.0. The same stale pin claim appears in the health-check comment and upgrade-record header, so readers and maintainers get conflicting current-version and boundary context.

Minimum correction: Describe v0.18.0 as the rename boundary and v0.19.0 as the current pin, and remove the duplicated v0.19.0 preface.

Responded to the review in c8dc2b2ce and f0a2f6f10.

Taint cleanup could strip a live gate (deploy.sh.tmpl) — fixed

Confirmed, and worth stating the mechanism precisely because it is narrower than "pre-rename install" suggests. app.kubernetes.io/name carries the chart name, and AICR sets fullnameOverride (resource names) rather than nameOverride (that label):

Chart name: Rendered app.kubernetes.io/name
v0.15.1 skyhook-operator skyhook-operator
v0.17.1 / v0.19.0 nodewright nodewright

So the exposure is a cluster installed from an AICR bundle pinned at v0.15.1 — before #1348 moved the pin to v0.17.0. The label finds nothing, fresh_deploy=true, and the cleanup strips runtime-required taints while that operator is still running.

The Deployment name is stable across both chart eras (fullnameOverride: skyhook-operator), so the guard now does a second lookup by name. It uses a field selector rather than a named get, so an absent Deployment is an empty list rather than an error and both queries keep the same shape; either failing still skips the cleanup rather than concluding the operator is gone. Deliberately not deduplicated — the current install matches both queries, and a duplicate row changes neither the emptiness test nor the active-replica scan.

Two cases added to tools/deploy-sh-taint-cleanup_test.sh. Both fail without the fix, the first by issuing the call it exists to prevent:

FAIL: legacy-labelled-operator-no-taint-calls
      expected no kubectl taint calls, got: taint node gpu-1 nodewright.nvidia.com-

Note this leaves the guard matching on either name or label, which is deliberate given #2599 wants to move the validator the other way (name → label) for out-of-band installs. Neither identifier alone covers both cases.

Value-gated health-check wording (nodewright.md) — fixed, and the catch was right

This one was my error. Resolving the rebase against #2772 I preserved main's "Known limitation … aicr validate --phase deployment fails that check" wording, reasoning that a static Chainsaw assert cannot read effective values. It cannot — but gatedHealthCheckSuppressed suppresses it at the validator level, so the limitation no longer holds and I had reintroduced stale text. Rewritten to describe the actual behavior, including that the suppression is fail-closed: a render, read or discovery error propagates rather than reading as "nothing to assert".

Stale pin references — fixed

v0.18.0 was described as the pinned version in three places (nodewright.md, the nodewright-customizations health-check comment, the transition-record header) when the registry pins v0.19.0. All now describe v0.18.0 as the rename boundary. The duplicated preface in the transition record was an editing slip on my side and is gone.

record-blocks documentation — fixed

Correct: matchVersions reaches lowestBlocked only after the single-crossed-record branch, so a blocked record whose from does cover the source still yields record-blocks when another boundary is crossed alongside it. The table row now covers that case.

Empty RUNTIME_REQUIRED_TAINT → chart defaults — not taken

Keeping this fail-closed, with a better message instead (c8dc2b2ce, which predates the comment).

The operator's own options validation requires a runtime-required taint and refuses to start without one (skyhook_controller.go: "runtime required taint must be set"). So an empty value does not mean "unconfigured" — it means the operator is not running. Falling back to chart defaults would make the gate wait on taints that a non-running operator will never remove, turning a one-line configuration error into an 8-minute timeout reporting "taint never cleared". That is a worse diagnostic for the same underlying fault.

What did change: the three cases are now distinguished rather than all reporting "is not a valid taint" — empty (the operator will not start), valueFrom (unresolvable from the Deployment spec, since the gate reads it there), and genuinely malformed. All still fail closed, with table cases for each.

Out-of-scope pre-merge warning

Each flagged change is consequent to the pin bump rather than unrelated, and the PR description covers the reasoning:

  • pkg/upgrade/match.go — recording the v0.19.0 boundary exposed that multiple-boundaries counted crossed safe records, which carry no steps by construction, so a v0.16 → v0.19 jump was told to stop at v0.18.0 where landing changes no work.
  • pkg/snapshotter/agent.go — ParseTaint now validates key and value syntax, because it is newly load-bearing: the taint gate parses an operator-supplied env value that reaches a generated kubectl taint command.
  • recipes/components/nodewright-operator/values.yaml — webhook.removalImage existed only to qualify a short-name image that v0.18.0 qualifies upstream; the BOM confirms an identical digest.

Separately

Two robustness points in resolveNodewrightGVR are filed separately rather than expanded here: discovery is checked at group/version granularity rather than for the resource itself, and the GVR is resolved once ahead of an 8-minute poll, so a validator racing a fresh install can skip the check entirely. The second is pre-existing #607 behavior rather than new in this PR.

Reviewed through f0a2f6f. One blocking validation defect, one correctness issue in new code, and one stale comment.

Blocking — recipes/checks/rdma-netns-exclusive/health-check.yaml:56-65 still waits for status.status: complete on the legacy Skyhook object. From v0.18.0 the operator mirrors that object into a NodeWright and writes completion status there, leaving the legacy status unset. Because v0.19.0 still serves the Skyhook CRD, the assertion consumes its full six-minute timeout rather than failing fast, even on a cluster where the tuning completed successfully.

This PR's pin bump is what makes that path reachable. Both VR200 overlays enable the check and inherit v0.19.0, with neither a suppression entry nor another readiness probe. It is the same status-migration defect this PR already fixes for nodewright-customizations. That file is untouched by the diff, so this could not be left as an inline comment.

Please make the asserted kind follow the operator generation. If pre-rename recipes remain supported, preserve a readiness signal for both generations rather than suppressing the check entirely.

The remaining two items are inline: the runtime-required-taint gate resolves the operator Deployment by a single name, and one comment still identifies v0.18.0 as the current pin.

Verdict: Request changes, because the inherited RDMA health check fails under the version introduced by this PR.

This looks up only skyhook-operator-controller-manager and silently returns chartDefaults() on IsNotFound.

The VR200 overlays explicitly support both installation paths: the AICR-managed operator renders that name, while the documented out-of-band installation renders nodewright-controller-manager (vr200-rke2-ubuntu-training.yaml:176-192, which is why that overlay's own Deployment assert is deliberately name-agnostic). On the latter path the gate ignores a custom live RUNTIME_REQUIRED_TAINT and waits only for the chart-default taints.

Please probe both supported names, use the live configuration when exactly one exists, and fail closed if both are present.

# worth having before the bump rather than after it: reading the migration
# notes is what qualifies the bump in the first place.
# Written while the pin was still v0.17.1, under the rule-2 allowance that lets

This still identifies v0.18.0 as the current pin; the registry pins v0.19.0 and the ceiling is <=0.19.0, which lines 19-22 just below describe correctly. v0.18.0 is the rename release.

All four addressed in ab284a26f.

rdma-netns-exclusive health check — fixed, and thank you for catching it

Confirmed and reproduced the reasoning: the check asserts status.status: complete on skyhook.nvidia.com/v1alpha1 Skyhook, both VR200 overlays enable the component (vr200-rke2-ubuntu-training.yaml:333, vr200-rke2-ubuntu-inference.yaml:234), and from v0.18.0 the mirror writes completion only on the NodeWright. Because v0.19.0 still serves the legacy CRD the assert does not fail fast — it consumes the full 6m.

This was a plain miss on my part rather than a judgement call: it is the same defect I fixed for nodewright-customizations, and the file turned up in my initial sweep of legacy-API references. I deprioritized it and should not have.

Retargeted to nodewright.nvidia.com/v1alpha1 NodeWright. The name carries across the mirror unchanged, so it stays pinned rather than going name-agnostic — this component ships exactly one CR, unlike nodewright-customizations where the manifests disagree on the name.

On preserving a signal for both generations: with the pin at v0.19.0 no supported path serves only the legacy kind, so the assert follows the operator generation the pin selects rather than straddling. A static Chainsaw assert cannot branch, and the validator-level suppression (gatedHealthCheckSuppressed) is scoped to nodewright-customizations. If pre-rename recipes need to stay supported here, that wants the suppression extended to this component rather than a weakened assert — happy to do that in this PR if you would rather not defer it.

Taint gate resolving a single Deployment name — fixed, exactly as specified

Verified the premise against vr200-rke2-ubuntu-training.yaml:176-192, which documents both paths and is why that overlay's own Deployment assert is deliberately name-agnostic. On the out-of-band path the gate hit IsNotFound, fell back to chart defaults, and waited on taints that operator never applies.

Both names are now probed:

  • Exactly one present → its live RUNTIME_REQUIRED_TAINT is used.
  • Neither → chart defaults, as before.
  • Both → fails closed with ErrCodeConflict, since picking one would gate on a value the other does not set.
  • A non-NotFound read on either → fails closed, unchanged.

Two table cases added for the new branches.

Stale v0.18.0 as "the current pin" — fixed

Corrected in the record header. It was also wrong in nodewright.md and the nodewright-customizations health-check comment; those went in f0a2f6f10.

@lockwobr — flux in the wrong group

Correct, and it was worse than cosmetic: flux sat in the remainder group whose steps say to sed the CR manifests and kubectl apply/delete them. Against a reconciler that drifts and gets reverted on the next pass. Flux now joins argocd/argocd-helm in the git-sourced group, whose rename-in-one-commit sequence is what a reconciler actually needs, and the Argo-specific wording is generalized. The reason text now also says explicitly not to reach for kubectl on that path.

$ aicr upgrade-check --from old.yaml --to new.yaml --deployer flux
  1. upgrade-operator
  2. rename-crs-in-one-commit
  3. verify-migration

@lockwobr — can one transition cover both?

Not while keeping the guidance correct for both starting points, and the constraint is structural rather than stylistic.

to's floor is the boundary, and two well-formedness rules pin the shape: coverage requires the from domains to reach the pin, and the directional rule requires from to sit entirely below to's floor.

  • from: "<0.18.0" → to: ">=0.18.0 <=0.19.0" alone leaves 0.18.x matching no from, which fails the coverage rule — an operator sitting there would match nothing.
  • from: "<0.19.0" → to: "=0.19.0" alone is well-formed, but then someone already on v0.18.x is handed the rename steps they have already performed.

So the split is what keeps each starting point getting the right instructions. The usual cost of two boundaries — being told to stop partway — does not apply here: the v0.19.0 boundary is safe, and the matcher change in this PR stops a crossed safe boundary from forcing a stop, which is exactly why v0.16.0 → v0.19.0 reports manual with the rename steps rather than blocked.

Both items are addressed in ab284a2. Thanks for the quick turnaround.

The RDMA check now asserts the NodeWright kind, which matches how nodewright-customizations already asserts it, so the two checks take a consistent position on the rename rather than one trailing the other. Pinning the name across the mirror is fine given the component ships a single CR.

The taint gate now probes both supported Deployment names, uses the one that exists, returns a conflict when both do, and still falls back to chart defaults only when neither is present. That covers the out-of-band install path the VR200 overlays document.

Verified locally at this head: go build ./... is clean, ./validators/deployment/... passes, and TestCatalogParityGolden plus ./pkg/bundler pass against the regenerated golden files. I did not run the full make qualify.

Reviewed ab284a26f. The flux regrouping and the rdma-netns-exclusive retarget both look right.

On the two-record question I checked it rather than taking the argument: deleting the safe record fails rule 3 with exactly the gap you described (leaves a version gap between 0.18.0 and the pinned version 0.19.0 that no record describes), and v0.17.1 -> v0.19.0 does come back manual with the rename steps. So the split is load-bearing, not stylistic.

One item below I would act on before merge (loneSubstantive on an all-safe crossing). The rest are nits.

Separately, the empty RUNTIME_REQUIRED_TAINT thread reads settled to me. The counter-argument rested on the chart not validating the value; you cited the operator refusing to start without one, which is the evidence that decides it.

loneSubstantive returns false when found == 0, so a jump that crosses only safe boundaries still falls through to ReasonMultipleBoundaries and reports blocked.

That contradicts the branch's own premise: if one safe boundary composes nothing and skips nothing, N of them compose nothing either. Reproduced against a synthetic two-safe record on this head:

v1.0.0 -> v1.2.0  verdict=blocked  reason=multiple-boundaries
  crosses 2 recorded boundaries (1.1.0, 1.2.0); no single record describes the
  whole jump. Upgrade to 1.1.0 first, then re-run this check

Not reachable with today's data (nodewright has exactly one safe record), but it lands the moment a second one does, and it lands as a blocked verdict telling an operator to stop somewhere that asks nothing of them. The three new cases in match_test.go are manual plus safe, safe alone, and two substantive, so nothing pins this one.

Returning any of the crossed safe boundaries when found == 0 closes it, plus a control case.

Agreed, and I verified it independently at ab284a2 rather than just reading your repro — loneSubstantive ends with return only, found == 1, so an all-safe crossing leaves found at 0, returns false, and falls through to blocked / multiple-boundaries.

Minor, same branch. When the lone substantive record's ceiling stops short of the target, this bails to the multiple-boundaries message rather than beyond-record-ceiling, and the two name different places to stop:

v0.17.1 -> v0.20.0  blocked  reason=multiple-boundaries
  crosses 2 recorded boundaries (0.18.0, 0.19.0) ... Upgrade to 0.18.0 first

v0.19.0 -> v0.20.0  blocked  reason=beyond-record-ceiling
  ... assess only as far as 0.19.0 ... Upgrade no further than 0.19.0

The verdict is right either way and it converges after two hops, so this is message quality only. The first one just points at 0.18.0 when 0.19.0 is the actual ceiling.

Thanks, this is the shape I was after.

One leftover from the move: the reason on this same step still reads "The new objects are untracked by Argo at this point; it neither prunes nor flags them." The claim does hold for Flux (mirror-created NodeWrights are not in the Kustomization's inventory, so prune: true will not reap them), but now that flux reads this group the sentence should name the reconciler generically, the way the description and rename-crs-in-one-commit reason already do.

--from old.yaml renders as v0.17.1 in the block above and v0.16.0 here, so the same file appears to hold two different versions.

Either rename this one (older.yaml) or use v0.17.1, which per the matcher also reports manual.

Not asking for a behavior change, but the doc comment on checkExpectedResources (around L232) now understates this path. It explains that gatedHealthCheckSuppressed returning directly discards whatever failures were already collected, and scopes that as a known gap on the grounds that the error is a Helm render or cancellation-induced.

This PR adds discovery (resolveNodewrightGVR) as a third error source on the same return. A transient non-NotFound discovery error, say an apiserver 503 while the loop happens to be on nodewright-customizations, now collapses the entire expected-resources report into a single ErrCodeInternal, which is precisely the "understates how much of the cluster went unchecked" outcome that comment exists to warn about. It is also a good deal likelier than a broken template.

Routing it through the failures accumulator can wait; naming discovery in the comment probably should not.

Escalating to request-changes on one item only: loneSubstantive returning false on found == 0.

matchVersions now reports blocked / multiple-boundaries for a jump that crosses only safe boundaries, which is the one outcome this branch was added to stop. Reproduced on this head with a synthetic two-safe record:

v1.0.0 -> v1.2.0  verdict=blocked  reason=multiple-boundaries
  crosses 2 recorded boundaries (1.1.0, 1.2.0); no single record describes the
  whole jump. Upgrade to 1.1.0 first, then re-run this check

I am blocking rather than filing a follow-up because this is dormant, not visible. Nothing in the committed records triggers it today, the new tests do not cover the found == 0 case, and the failure mode when a second safe record lands is a blocked verdict telling an operator to stop at a version where nothing happens. That is the false-confidence direction ADR-021 cares about, and it is a one-line fix plus a control case while the code is open.

The other four comments in my previous review stand as nits: the "untracked by Argo" wording, the old.yaml version mismatch in the catalog examples, the beyond-record-ceiling vs multiple-boundaries message, and naming discovery in the checkExpectedResources doc comment. Take or leave any of them; none block.

Everything else here looks good, including the flux regrouping and the rdma-netns-exclusive retarget.

….18.0

The deployment readiness gate polled skyhook.nvidia.com/v1alpha1 Skyhook and
gated on a hardcoded skyhook.nvidia.com taint key. Operator v0.18.0 renames the
kind to nodewright.nvidia.com/v1alpha1 NodeWright and writes completion status
only there, and moves the default runtime-required taint key to
nodewright.nvidia.com, so both reads missed and a tuned cluster timed out.

Resolve the served group by discovery with a legacy fallback, and read the
configured taint from the operator Deployment's RUNTIME_REQUIRED_TAINT rather
than assuming a key -- --workload-gate is applied at bundle time and never
reaches the recipe the validator is handed. Both fail closed.

Restores the validator work from the closed PR #2597, which was live-validated
on a bare-metal GB300 NVL72 but became unmergeable when the pin rolled back to
v0.17.1, and carries the pin forward to v0.18.0 so its chainsaw assert on
NodeWright is correct rather than premature.

Beyond the validator, the legacy names leaked into surfaces #2597 never
touched:

- UAT gpu_census_verdict matched only the legacy taint prefix, so a node
  cordoned by v0.18.0 tuning reported "ok (N gpu-worker nodes ready)". A false
  pass, now covered by a test that fails without the fix.
- tools/cleanup reaped no nodewright.nvidia.com CRDs, leaving them behind.
- UAT debug capture dumped only the legacy kind, which is empty on v0.18.0.
- Conformance assert-crds asserted the legacy CRD rather than the kind the
  operator writes status on.

The pin bump reopens the transition record, as designed: its stale
expect-aicr-readiness-to-fail steps are gone and the ceiling now sits on the
pin. AICR's webhook.removalImage override is dropped because v0.18.0 qualifies
the image upstream -- the BOM confirms an identical digest.

…a jump

v0.19.0 moves only the operator image and adds an optional CRD field under
templates/, so the boundary is safe: drain now completes when evicted pods have
terminated rather than when their evictions were accepted, which changes when
an interrupt begins but asks nothing of an operator on upgrade.

Recording it exposed a matcher flaw. multiple-boundaries exists because
composing two migrations is wrong -- an intermediate record's steps never run
on a jump straight past it -- but it counted every crossed boundary regardless
of verdict. A safe record carries no steps by construction, so crossing one
composes nothing and skips nothing, yet a 0.16 -> 0.19 jump across the manual
rename and the safe follow-up reported blocked and named v0.18.0 as somewhere
to stop, when landing there changes no work. A crossed safe boundary no longer
counts toward the skip rule when one substantive record describes the whole
move, and the rename's to range now reaches through v0.19.0 to carry it.

The reduction sits after the blocked checks, so an authored block still
outranks everything, and two substantive boundaries still block. Both are
pinned by the new test's control cases.

Refs #2593

Signed-off-by: Alex Yuskauskas <ayuskauskas@nvidia.com>
An empty RUNTIME_REQUIRED_TAINT reported "is not a valid taint", which reads
as though AICR cannot parse a value the operator accepted. It cannot: the
operator's own options validation requires a runtime-required taint and refuses
to start without one, so an empty value means the operator is not running. The
chart renders the env unconditionally through quote, so empty is a shape that
reaches this path rather than a hypothetical. A value supplied via valueFrom
lands in the same branch and is now named as unresolvable rather than invalid,
since the gate reads the Deployment spec. Both still fail closed.

Also point the UAT census fixture at the operator's real default taint: the key
is the bare nodewright.nvidia.com domain with runtime-required as the value,
not a slash-suffixed key. Both shapes satisfy the prefix match, so the test
passed either way and was not exercising what ships; reverting the phases.sh
fix still fails it.

readyDeployment loses its replicas parameter, which every caller passed as 1.

The stale-taint cleanup probed the operator Deployment by
app.kubernetes.io/name=nodewright. That label carries the CHART name, which was
skyhook-operator until the chart was renamed at v0.17.0, so an operator
installed from a pre-rename bundle is invisible to it. The empty result reads
as a fresh deploy and the cleanup strips runtime-required taints out from under
a live operator, uncordoning GPU nodes while tuning is still in progress --
exactly what the taint exists to prevent, on exactly the upgrade path this
branch enables.

The Deployment name is stable across both chart eras because the bundle pins
fullnameOverride, so a second lookup by name catches what the label misses. It
uses a field selector rather than a named get so an absent Deployment is an
empty list rather than an error, and both queries keep the same shape. Either
query failing still skips the cleanup rather than guessing the operator is
gone. Covered by two cases in the taint-cleanup harness; both fail without the
fix, the first by issuing the taint removal this prevents.

Also correct four documentation claims: v0.18.0 is the rename boundary rather
than the current pin, which is v0.19.0; the chainsaw health check is described
as failing on a values-suppressed CR when the validator in fact suppresses the
assert (gatedHealthCheckSuppressed, #1844); the record-blocks route omitted the
case where a blocked record covers the source but is crossed alongside another
boundary; and an editing slip had duplicated a comment in the transition
record.

…rator names

recipes/checks/rdma-netns-exclusive/health-check.yaml still asserted
status.status: complete on the legacy Skyhook. From v0.18.0 the mirror writes
completion status only on the NodeWright, so on the pin this branch introduces
the assert burns its whole 6m budget on a cluster whose tuning finished. Both
VR200 overlays enable the component, so the path is live. Same defect already
fixed for nodewright-customizations; this file was simply missed.

runtimeRequiredTaints resolved the operator Deployment by the bundle-rendered
name alone. The VR reference clusters install nodewright out of band with no
fullnameOverride and render the chart's own name (#1828), where the lookup
returned NotFound and the gate fell back to chart defaults -- waiting on taints
that operator never applies while ignoring its live RUNTIME_REQUIRED_TAINT.
Both supported names are now probed: exactly one wins, neither falls back as
before, and both present fails closed with ErrCodeConflict, since picking one
would gate on a value the other does not set.

The transition record put flux in the helm group, whose steps say to sed the CR
manifests and kubectl apply/delete them. Against a reconciler that drifts and
is reverted on the next pass. Flux joins argocd in the git-sourced group, whose
rename-in-one-commit sequence is what a reconciler actually needs, and the
Argo-specific wording is generalized.

Also correct the record header, which still called v0.18.0 the current pin.

loneSubstantive returned false when every crossed boundary was safe, so the
jump fell through to multiple-boundaries and reported blocked -- the one
outcome the reduction was added to stop. If one safe boundary composes nothing
and skips nothing, N of them compose nothing either: rule 4 forbids a safe
record carrying steps, so there is no intermediate work a jump past it could
miss. Dormant against today's records, which hold a single safe boundary, and
it lands as a blocked verdict naming a stopping point where nothing happens the
moment a second one is authored.

This reverses TestMatchVerdictSelection/two_non-blocking_boundaries: it
previously asserted that two crossed safe records block. Called out rather than
quietly adjusted, because the case was named for the behavior it pinned. The
ceiling check at the call site is what still stops this vouching past anyone's
assessment.

An intermediate attempt gated the reduction on the to ranges being contiguous,
to keep that case blocking. It was wrong: exact-version to ranges are never
contiguous, so it rejected the very shape the fix is for.

Nits from the same round: the untracked-by-Argo reason now names the reconciler
generically since flux reads that group, one catalog example showed two
versions for the same old.yaml, and the checkExpectedResources doc comment now
names discovery as the third error source on that early return -- an apiserver
blip during nodewright-customizations collapses the whole report, which is
likelier than the broken render the comment described.

…undaries

The all-safe reduction skipped fromCovers, justified by a safe record carrying
no steps. That answers the wrong question: fromCovers does not gate steps, it
gates whether any record assessed the starting version, which is what
undefined-origin is about. Conflating the two let the same origin be refused
across one boundary and vouched for across two:

  0.9.0 -> 1.1.0  blocked  undefined-origin
  0.9.0 -> 1.2.0  safe     recorded

Asking to go further bought the one verdict that vouches, which is the
false-confidence direction, and it is the same dormant shape as the bug the
previous commit closed rather than a different one. Reachable under the ADR's
ordinary bounded-from idiom, since rule 3 starts coverage at the lowest floor
rather than at zero.

crossings orders by floor, so crossed[0] is the boundary that has to own the
origin while top is the one that has to reach the target; both are now
required. The doc comment no longer offers the steps argument for skipping an
origin check.

Two cases pin the pair, with bounded lower from ranges, which no existing
fixture had. The nodewright records are unaffected: their crossing includes a
manual, which goes through loneSubstantive and already checked fromCovers.

Force-pushed again: 5ee73cc3c → 7f27eb522. Rebased onto main after #2725 and #2809 landed; the merge gate had the branch conflicting again. Inline anchors from before this point are outdated a second time, which I am sorry about — the alternative is sitting behind main and not merging at all.

Only one conflict, and it was pkg/bundler/testdata/stock_render_golden.yaml, resolved by regenerating rather than by hand. git range-diff across the move:

1:  0c6fdbbfe = 1:  c5a0e33b4  resolve the nodewright API group by discovery; pin v0.18.0
2:  96c062d07 < -:  ---------  pin nodewright v0.19.0; safe boundaries stop blocking a jump
-:  --------- > 2:  1868a402a  pin nodewright v0.19.0; safe boundaries stop blocking a jump
3:  91a9900af = 3:  94ddadfd5  name an empty runtime-required taint env for what it is
4:  01ca42a83 = 4:  e36b0b465  see a pre-rename operator before stripping its taints
5:  cdf897cc8 = 5:  3cda5f5c4  retarget the RDMA readiness assert and probe both operator names
6:  dc3a4ffb9 = 6:  3e5ac621a  an all-safe crossing is safe, not blocked
7:  5ee73cc3c = 7:  29c9f7318  an unassessed origin is not rescued by crossing more boundaries

Six of seven replayed byte-identical. Commit 2 shows unpaired rather than ! only because its golden diff is too large for range-diff to match the two halves; the content difference is the regenerated golden and nothing else.

Two things I checked specifically rather than trusting the clean merge, since both landing commits touch files this branch edits:

Re-verified on the new head: pkg/recipe, pkg/bundler, pkg/upgrade, all of validators/... and tests/uat green; golangci-lint 0 issues over ./pkg/upgrade/... and ./validators/...; check-upgrade-records, bom-pinning-check, tuning-check, check-agents-sync, check-docs-mdx and license pass. All seven commits signed. Mergeable again.

Open items are unchanged: the reversed two_non-blocking_boundaries case, the beyond-record-ceiling message as a possible follow-up, and whether rdma-netns-exclusive keeps a pre-rename readiness signal via gatedHealthCheckSuppressed.

MAJOR: This new discovery call is not bound to ctx.Ctx. ServerResourcesForGroupVersion uses context.TODO() internally, and it runs before pollUntilStable; if API discovery stalls, deployment validation can outlive cancellation and the readiness budget instead of failing closed. The repository's context-aware DRA discovery path avoids this by issuing /apis/<group-version> through the discovery REST client.

Minimum correction: perform both group-version probes with the validator context and add a regression test where a blocked discovery request is canceled.

resolveNodewrightGVR probed both group-versions through
DiscoveryInterface.ServerResourcesForGroupVersion, which issues its request
with context.TODO() internally. It runs ahead of pollUntilStable, so a stalled
apiserver would outlive cancellation and the readiness budget and hang until
the Job is killed, rather than failing closed.

The repository already had the cancelable form in allocmode for the DRA
probe: the same GET through the discovery REST client, falling back to the
interface method with a ctx.Err() recheck on either side for fake clients that
expose no RESTClient. Rather than copy twenty subtle lines, that helper moves
to validators/helper as GroupVersionResources and both callers use it.

A context error now maps to ErrCodeTimeout rather than ErrCodeInternal, so a
budget overrun reads as one. Discovery failures also name the signal, matching
how the rest of this report identifies it, since they are now one of the ways
the nodewright probe can fail.

The regression test asserts a canceled context surfaces instead of a verdict;
against the previous call it returns nil and a served group.

Fixed in 49b379c5a. Confirmed rather than assumed — client-go's DiscoveryClient.ServerResourcesForGroupVersion ends in d.restClient.Get().AbsPath(url.String()).Do(context.TODO()).Into(resources), so the call is genuinely unbound, and it runs ahead of pollUntilStable where nothing else would notice a stall.

You were also right that the repository already solves this. validators/internal/allocmode has the cancelable form for the DRA probe: the same GET through the discovery REST client, falling back to the interface method with a ctx.Err() recheck on both sides of the call, because a fake discovery client exposes no RESTClient and a cancellation racing the call can otherwise return success.

Rather than copy twenty subtle lines into a second package, I moved that helper to validators/helper as GroupVersionResources and pointed both callers at it. allocmode's own suite passes unchanged against the shared version.

Two consequences worth flagging, since neither was in your ask:

  • A context error now maps to ErrCodeTimeout, not ErrCodeInternal. The file's existing doc comment already describes ErrCodeTimeout as the fail-closed budget code, so a budget overrun should read as one rather than as an internal fault.
  • Discovery failures now name the signal (Nodewright: failed to discover …). They are a new way the nodewright probe can fail, and TestVerifyGPUReadinessSignalsPreservesOrderConcurrently asserts failures[0] identifies the signal — under cancellation the first failure is now this one, and it was reporting only the group name. I kept the exact failed to discover phrasing the RBAC test greps for rather than rewording it out from under that assertion.

Regression test added as asked. Against the previous call it fails with resolveNodewrightGVR() error = nil, want the cancellation to surface — the unbound call returned a served group under a dead context. One limit stated in the test's own comment: the fake clientset exposes no RESTClient, so it exercises the helper's guard rather than a real in-flight cancellation. That is the half reachable without standing up a blocking HTTP server, and it is the half that regresses if someone swaps the helper back for the interface method.

golangci-lint 0 issues, all of validators/... green, validators/deployment coverage 76.7%.

#2849 merged, which clears the three NPD/NVSentinel E2E failures here.

The remaining failures are a semantic merge conflict with #2847, not a defect in this PR's own changes. This branch refactors gatedHealthCheckSuppressed to take *validators.Context, while #2847 added a dra-node-labeler case calling emptyRenderHealthCheckSuppressed(goCtx, ref). Merging main combined the two with no textual conflict, but the merged-in case references a parameter the new signature no longer has — so analyze and gate fail to compile at validators/deployment/expected_resources.go:1174. The call needs ctx.Ctx, matching the gcp-driver-installer case immediately above it.

Catching up to current main also conflicts in pkg/bundler/testdata/stock_render_golden.yaml — 55 hunks, all SHA256 checksums, because #2849 changed the CRD-step script while this branch bumps the nodewright pin. That one wants regenerating rather than hand-resolving (AICR_UPDATE_GOLDEN=1 go test ./pkg/bundler/ -run TestStockRenderParityGolden) so it reflects both changes.

I have both ready locally as a merge of current main into this branch — merging rather than rebasing so the existing approval's inline anchors survive. Verified with go build ./validators/..., go test ./validators/deployment/..., and the render-parity and BOM-versions tests, all passing.

Happy to push it if that helps, or leave it to you — say the word either way.

Re-approving after pushing the catch-up merge to current main (includes #2849).

The compile failure at expected_resources.go:1174 was a semantic merge conflict with #2847, not a defect in this PR: the dra-node-labeler case merged in from main still passed the goCtx parameter that this branch's refactor to *validators.Context removed. Now passes ctx.Ctx, matching the gcp-driver-installer case above it.

stock_render_golden.yaml was regenerated rather than hand-resolved — the merge produced 55 checksum conflicts because #2849 changed the CRD-step script while this branch bumps the nodewright pin, so the golden now reflects both.

Verified locally: go build ./validators/..., go test ./validators/deployment/..., and the render-parity and BOM-versions tests all pass.

The examples pinned v0.17.1 while the registry moved to v0.19.0 in #2829,
and this branch then changed their namespace, leaving a fresh namespace
beside a stale pin. A v0.17.1 operator ships only the legacy Skyhook CRD,
so an example carrying the renamed NodeWright CRs could not apply.

Every other pin in these files already matches the registry; only
nodewright-operator had drifted. Caught in review by CodeRabbit.
