[ upstream commit d50a525 ] [ Backporter's notes: minor renames, otherwise a clean backport ] The `reserved:host` identity is special: the numeric identity is fixed and the set of labels is mutable. (The datapath requires this.) So, we need to determine all prefixes that have the `reserved:host` label and capture their labels. Then, we must aggregate *all* labels from all IPs and insert them as the `reserved:host` identity labels. However, the code as written has a race condition whenever the local node has more than one IP address. This can happen when, for example vxlan or ipv6 is enabled. The basic sequence is this: 1. Insert IP A as `reserved:host` in to the ipcache. ID 1 now has labels `reserved:host` 2. Insert IP A as `reserved:kube-apiserver` in to the ipcache. ID 1 is updated with labels `reserved:host, reserved:kube-apsierver` 3. Insert IP B as `reserved:host` in to the ipcache. ID 1 is updated with labels `reserved:host`. And now policies that select `reserved:kube-apiserver` are broken Likewise, we need to always update the SelectorCache; we cannot short-circuit if the ipcache already has that identity. Again, this is needed because the identity is mutable. So this bug can take another form: 1. Insert IP A as `reserved:host` in to the ipcache. Because IP A is not known to the ipcache, treat ID 1 as a new identity and update the selector cache 2. Insert IP A as `reserved:kube-apiserver`. Mutate the labels of ID 1. But, because IP A already has ID 1, short-circuit the update to the selector cache (if the Source is the same, which it _may_ be). 3. Now the selector cache has incorrect labels for ID 1. Without this, when there are multiple IPs with the host label, the identity may flap and the SelectorCache may be missing updates.
