Milestones

These are the user-visible milestones on the way towards a Kubernetes release that will support kubectl debug functionality. Those interested can follow this issue for updates. I've included estimated release targets, but these are highly dependent on reviewer availability and should not be relied upon.

  • Ephemeral containers added to core API (landed 1.16)
  • kubelet support for creating basic ephemeral containers (landed 1.16)
  • kubectl command to launch ephemeral containers (landed 1.17)
  • kubelet support for namespace targeting (landed 1.18)
  • kubectl support for adding ephemeral containers (landed 1.18)
  • Switch API to use Pod kind (target 1.22)
  • allow setting securityContext (target 1.22)
  • Beta graduation (target 1.23)

Hi!
Is there anyone actively working on this?

I would really like to start contributing on it (realistically starting next week or so).

@radu-matei Yes, I'm actively working on it. I have some PRs lined up but we haven't quite finalized the API yet, see kubernetes/community#1269.

I'd love to have some help here, of course. Was there a particular area to which you'd like to contribute?

@radu-matei

@verb I probably can work on kubectl right away, but I would also very much want to understand the API server and kubelet.

Hello @verb 👋, 1.25 Enhancements team here.

Just checking in as we approach enhancements freeze on 18:00 PST on Thursday June 16, 2022.

For note, This enhancement is targeting for stage stable for 1.25 (correct me, if otherwise)

Here's where this enhancement currently stands:

  • KEP file using the latest template has been merged into the k/enhancements repo.
  • KEP status is marked as implementable
  • KEP has a updated detailed test plan section filled out
  • KEP has up to date graduation criteria
  • KEP has a production readiness review that has been completed and merged into k/enhancements.

Looks like for this one, we would just need to update the following:

  • update the test plan section in the KEP README.md according to the latest template
  • Get the PRR for 1.25 milestone

Open PR #3384 is addressing above ^

For note, the status of this enhancement is marked as at risk. Please keep the issue description up-to-date with appropriate stages as well. Thank you! #

Hi @dchen1107, my only concern is that due to the release lag of cloud providers a portion of users haven't had an opportunity to try the feature and provide feedback. For example, 1.23 only became available in GKE's rapid channel last month. I was going to push graduation in the 1.26 cycle.

That being said, afaik we're feature complete, we have graduation criteria to measure some real-world usage, and 1.23 should have at least a couple of months in GKE's regular channel (I don't know about other providers) before code freeze. You're probably getting more feedback than I am. I support GA if you think it's time, and I'm available to work on it.

With GA in 1.25, I'm happy to consider this KEP fully implemented. Thanks everyone! 🎉

I know there are still improvements we want to make for ephemeral containers, but let's track these with new KEPs. I'll send a PR to mark this implemented. 👍
