Remove unecessary flags in cloud-controller-manager #34

Open andrewsykim opened 5 years ago

andrewsykim commented 5 years ago

There's a bunch of unnecessary flags that were added to the cloud-controller-manager as it was back ported from the kube-controller-manager. We should remove (or deprecate) those flags, specifically flags associated with a single provider (e.g. --cloud-provider-gce-lb-src-cidrs)

timoreimann commented 5 years ago

@andrewsykim I'd be happy to take over this one, either partially or completely. Given the number of flags available, I'd appreciate any advice on how to determine which flags should stay and which may be dropped.

Thanks!

andrewsykim commented 5 years ago

@timoreimann do you have all the flags handy from the DO CCM? If you list them here I can list which ones are still needed today.

timoreimann commented 5 years ago

@andrewsykim sure, here you go (note that the description of the --cloud-provider-gce-lb-src-cidrs flag is due to a local patch of ours to make it work):

the cloud specific control loops shipped with Kubernetes.

Usage:
  cloud-controller-manager [flags]

Debugging flags:

      --contention-profiling   Enable lock contention profiling, if profiling is enabled
      --profiling              Enable profiling via web interface host:port/debug/pprof/

Generic flags:

      --allocate-node-cidrs                      Should CIDRs for Pods be allocated and set on the cloud provider.
      --cidr-allocator-type string               Type of CIDR allocator to use (default "RangeAllocator")
      --cloud-config string                      The path to the cloud provider configuration file. Empty string for no configuration file.
      --cloud-provider string                    The provider for cloud services. Empty string for no provider.
      --cloud-provider-gce-lb-src-cidrs string   NOT USED (workaround for https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/76205)
      --cluster-cidr string                      CIDR Range for Pods in cluster. Requires --allocate-node-cidrs to be true
      --cluster-name string                      The instance prefix for the cluster. (default "kubernetes")
      --configure-cloud-routes                   Should CIDRs allocated by allocate-node-cidrs be configured on the cloud provider. (default true)
      --controller-start-interval duration       Interval between starting controller managers.
      --controllers strings                      A list of controllers to enable. '*' enables all on-by-default controllers, 'foo' enables the controller named 'foo', '-foo' disables the controller named 'foo'.
                                                 All controllers: cloud-node, cloud-node-lifecycle, route, service
                                                 Disabled-by-default controllers:  (default [*])
      --external-cloud-volume-plugin string      The plugin to use when cloud provider is set to external. Can be empty, should only be set when cloud-provider is external. Currently used to allow node and volume controllers to work for in tree cloud providers.
      --feature-gates mapStringBool              A set of key=value pairs that describe feature gates for alpha/experimental features. Options are:

      --leader-elect-lease-duration duration     The duration that non-leader candidates will wait after observing a leadership renewal until attempting to acquire leadership of a led but unrenewed leader slot. This is effectively the maximum duration that a leader can be stopped before it is replaced by another candidate. This is only applicable if leader election is enabled. (default 15s)
      --leader-elect-renew-deadline duration     The interval between attempts by the acting master to renew a leadership slot before it stops leading. This must be less than or equal to the lease duration. This is only applicable if leader election is enabled. (default 10s)

Secure serving flags:

      --bind-address ip                        The IP address on which to listen for the --secure-port port. The associated interface(s) must be reachable by the rest of the cluster, and by CLI/web clients. If blank, all interfaces will be used (0.0.0.0 for all IPv4 interfaces and :: for all IPv6 interfaces). (default 0.0.0.0)
      --cert-dir string                        The directory where the TLS certs are located. If --tls-cert-file and --tls-private-key-file are provided, this flag will be ignored.
      --http2-max-streams-per-connection int   The limit that the server gives to clients for the maximum number of streams in an HTTP/2 connection. Zero means to use golang's default.
      --secure-port int                        The port on which to serve HTTPS with authentication and authorization.If 0, don't serve HTTPS at all. (default 10258)
      --tls-cert-file string                   File containing the default x509 Certificate for HTTPS. (CA cert, if any, concatenated after server cert). If HTTPS serving is enabled, and --tls-cert-file and --tls-private-key-file are not provided, a self-signed certificate and key are generated for the public address and saved to the directory specified by --cert-dir.
      --tls-cipher-suites strings              Comma-separated list of cipher suites for the server. If omitted, the default Go cipher suites will be use.  Possible values: TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA,TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256,TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA,TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384,TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA
      --tls-min-version string                 Minimum TLS version supported. Possible values: VersionTLS10, VersionTLS11, VersionTLS12
      --tls-private-key-file string            File containing the default x509 private key matching --tls-cert-file.
      --tls-sni-cert-key namedCertKey          A pair of x509 certificate and private key file paths, optionally suffixed with a list of domain patterns which are fully qualified domain names, possibly with prefixed wildcard segments. If no domain patterns are provided, the names of the certificate are extracted. Non-wildcard matches trump over wildcard matches, explicit domain patterns trump over extracted names. For multiple key/certificate pairs, use the --tls-sni-cert-key multiple times. Examples: "example.crt,example.key" or "foo.crt,foo.key:*.foo.com,foo.com". (default [])

Insecure serving flags:

      --address ip   The IP address on which to serve the insecure --port (set to 0.0.0.0 for all IPv4 interfaces and :: for all IPv6 interfaces). (default 0.0.0.0) (DEPRECATED: see --bind-address instead.)
      --port int     The port on which to serve unsecured, unauthenticated access. Set to 0 to disable. (DEPRECATED: see --secure-port instead.)

Authentication flags:

      --authentication-kubeconfig string                  kubeconfig file pointing at the 'core' kubernetes server with enough rights to create tokenaccessreviews.authentication.k8s.io. This is optional. If empty, all token requests are considered to be anonymous and no client CA is looked up in the cluster.
      --authentication-skip-lookup                        If false, the authentication-kubeconfig will be used to lookup missing authentication configuration from the cluster.
      --authentication-token-webhook-cache-ttl duration   The duration to cache responses from the webhook token authenticator. (default 10s)
      --authentication-tolerate-lookup-failure            If true, failures to look up missing authentication configuration from the cluster are not considered fatal. Note that this can result in authentication that treats all requests as anonymous.
      --client-ca-file string                             If set, any request presenting a client certificate signed by one of the authorities in the client-ca-file is authenticated with an identity corresponding to the CommonName of the client certificate.
      --requestheader-allowed-names strings               List of client certificate common names to allow to provide usernames in headers specified by --requestheader-username-headers. If empty, any client certificate validated by the authorities in --requestheader-client-ca-file is allowed.
      --requestheader-client-ca-file string               Root certificate bundle to use to verify client certificates on incoming requests before trusting usernames in headers specified by --requestheader-username-headers. WARNING: generally do not depend on authorization being already done for incoming requests.
      --requestheader-extra-headers-prefix strings        List of request header prefixes to inspect. X-Remote-Extra- is suggested. (default [x-remote-extra-])
      --requestheader-group-headers strings               List of request headers to inspect for groups. X-Remote-Group is suggested. (default [x-remote-group])

Hey @andrewsykim 👋 -- have you had a chance to take a look at the output I pasted above?

@cheftako do you see anything else here that can be cleaned up?

@timoreimann are you able to work on this still?

timoreimann commented 4 years ago

@andrewsykim yep for sure. It's been awhile since I checked in on this one, last time I did there were a number of open questions around some flags at https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider/issues/34#issuecomment-504366907. If you have a moment, could you go through them and let me know which of the flags I explicitly mentioned are needed for sure?
