Draft: the go.mod replace directive points at an unmerged API PR and
will need to be updated to a real release once that PR merges.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added support for transitioning single-node OpenShift clusters to highly available compact control planes when the MutableTopology feature is enabled.
    • Added preflight checks for node readiness, etcd health, cluster operators, machine configuration, ingress, and API server availability.
    • Added progress tracking, safety checks, and clear status conditions for supported, unsupported, or blocked topology transitions.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved recovery and reporting when topology transitions are interrupted, stalled, or changed during reconciliation.

jeff-roche and others added 10 commits June 26, 2026 08:57
Adds a new controller gated behind the MutableTopology feature gate that
manages control plane topology transitions. The initial supported
transition is SNO to HA Compact on platform type None.

The controller validates preflight conditions (node count, readiness,
schedulability, etcd quorum and voting members), updates Infrastructure
status, blocks upgrades during transitions, and monitors downstream
operator reconciliation with a soak timer before re-enabling upgrades.

Includes vendor updates for openshift/api (Infrastructure
spec.controlPlaneTopology, MutableTopology feature gate) and
openshift/client-go (operator clientset, informers, listers for Etcd
CR access).

…nsitions

Extract a shared checkClusterOperatorsStable core used by both the
preflight validator (blocks transition when operators are unstable) and
the post-transition reconciliation check. The preflight runs as a global
check for all transitions, reporting per-operator details (name and
which conditions are wrong) so users know what to fix before retrying.

…ator conditions

Control-plane node selectors now match both node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane
and the legacy node-role.kubernetes.io/master label via a shared helper, preventing
miscounts on clusters with unrenamed nodes. The cluster operator stability check
now requires Progressing=False and Degraded=False explicitly, treating missing or
Unknown conditions as unstable rather than silently passing.

Assisted-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
The if/else-to-switch refactor introduced three bugs: an || that should
have been && caused the transition-requested branch to be taken even
when spec already matched status, an unguarded FindOperatorCondition
call could nil-panic on the safety-net path, and the GetOperatorState
error was no longer checked. Also renames transitionCondition to
transitionProgressingCondition for clarity.
Fill in the post-transition TransitionValidators for the SNO-to-HA
transition (MachineConfig/MachineConfigPool state, IngressController
router replicas, KubeAPIServer/OpenShiftAPIServer rollout, and worker
node readiness), and wire them into checkClusterReconciliation the
same way preflight validators run. Replace the blanket
reconcileClusterOperatorsStable check with these fine-grained
per-transition checks now that they cover the relevant operators
directly.

Wire the new TransitionValidationListers (KubeAPIServer,
OpenShiftAPIServer, IngressController, MachineConfig,
MachineConfigPool) through NewController and starter.go using the
standard generated clientset/informers, matching every other resource
already wired in this operator.

Bump openshift/api and openshift/client-go to a June 2026 pairing
(rather than the latest) to pick up a machineconfiguration API rename
(LayerStorePath) that the generated machineconfiguration
clientset/informers require to compile, while staying before the
later commit that bumped k8s.io/client-go to v0.36.2 -- which would
have forced go.mod's `go` directive to 1.26, newer than the Go
toolchain available in OpenShift CI. k8s.io/client-go and
openshift/library-go are left untouched.

…n is withdrawn

When a transition is rejected (unsupported topology or failed preflight),
both transitionProgressingCondition and upgradeableCondition are set False
with a matching reason. Reverting spec to match status previously only
reset upgradeableCondition, leaving transitionProgressingCondition stuck
on the stale rejection reason indefinitely.

Signed-off-by: Jeff Roche <jeroche@redhat.com>
The SNO to HA compact transition expects control plane nodes to double
as workers, but no preflight check verified the worker role label was
actually present. Add validateControlPlaneNodesAreWorkers and wire it
into the SNO to HA compact PreflightValidators.

Walkthrough

Adds a feature-gated topology transition controller. It supports SNO-to-HA Compact transitions, validates cluster state, updates operator conditions and Infrastructure status, waits for reconciliation, and wires required informers and clients.

Changes

Mutable topology transitions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Transition contracts and validation
pkg/operator/topology_transition_controller/types.go, pkg/operator/topology_transition_controller/transition_validation_checks.go, pkg/operator/topology_transition_controller/*_test.go
Defines the supported SNO-to-HA Compact transition. Adds validation for nodes, etcd, operators, MachineConfigs, pools, ingress, and API servers.
Controller lifecycle and reconciliation
pkg/operator/topology_transition_controller/topology_transition_controller.go, pkg/operator/topology_transition_controller/test_helpers_test.go, pkg/operator/topology_transition_controller/topology_transition_controller_test.go
Adds transition detection, preflight condition updates, five-minute soak handling, reconciliation checks, completion handling, and recovery paths.
Feature-gated runtime registration
pkg/operator/starter.go, go.mod
Registers the controller and informer factories when MutableTopology is enabled. Updates module versions and dependency replacements.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 4e569

The transition controller can report completion prematurely or crash operator startup under reachable conditions, and the temporary API fork must be replaced before release. These issues should be resolved before merge.

Treat an omitted MutableTopology gate as disabled before calling Enabled.

CurrentFeatureGates() copies the observed enabled and disabled lists into the vendored featuregates.FeatureGate. Enabled panics when MutableTopology appears in neither list. An omitted gate can therefore crash RunOperator instead of skipping this controller.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Distinguish a client error from a missing condition in transitionStartTime.

Line 425 discards the error from GetOperatorState() and returns ok=false. validateNewRenderedPoolConfig treats ok=false as "accept any rendered config" (Line 456). A transient read error therefore lets a rendered MachineConfig that predates the transition satisfy the check, and the transition can be reported as reconciled too early.

Return the error so the validator fails closed on a read failure, and keep the permissive fallback only for the documented missing-condition case.
