[firewalld] kind doesn't work on Fedora 32

[christianh814]

What happened:

After upgrading to Fedora 32, I can no longer create a kind cluster.

What you expected to happen:

My kind cluster to get created

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

kind create cluster --config=config.yaml

Were config.yaml is...

kind: Cluster
apiVersion: kind.sigs.k8s.io/v1alpha3
networking:
  disableDefaultCNI: True
  podSubnet: "10.254.0.0/16"
  serviceSubnet: "172.30.0.0/16"
nodes:
- role: control-plane
- role: control-plane
- role: control-plane
- role: worker
  extraPortMappings:
  - containerPort: 80
    hostPort: 80
    listenAddress: 0.0.0.0
  - containerPort: 443
    hostPort: 443
    listenAddress: 0.0.0.0
- role: worker
- role: worker

Anything else we need to know?:

I figured maybe something was stale and ran docker network rm kind and re-ran the command. This time I looked at the logs on my laptop and saw...

May 01 16:51:17 laptop audit[98494]: SERVICE_STOP pid=98494 uid=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:spc_t:s0 msg='unit=kubelet comm="systemd" exe="/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" hostname=? addr=? terminal=? res=failed'
May 01 16:51:17 laptop audit[98423]: SERVICE_STOP pid=98423 uid=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:spc_t:s0 msg='unit=kubelet comm="systemd" exe="/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" hostname=? addr=? terminal=? res=failed'

Okay...so I docker exec into one of the workers and saw...

And indeed it's not there

root@kind-worker:/var/lib# ls -1 /var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml
ls: cannot access '/var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml': No such file or directory

Strange that kind create cluster DOES work fine.

/var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml does not exist initially, this is normal. I wish kubeadm would make this clearer :/

during kubeadm's bootstrapping the kubelet config does not exist initially and kubelet is crashlooping until the config is populated.

[BenTheElder]

can you share the full kind export logs in an archive? there's not a lot to go on here short of getting my hands on an identical host...

[BenTheElder]

this config works on ubuntu 20.04 and kind v0.8.1 w/ ipv6 disabled. will have to reboot to sanity check the more common ipv6 enabled.

[christianh814]

So it failed again with the following config...

kind: Cluster
apiVersion: kind.sigs.k8s.io/v1alpha3
networking:
  disableDefaultCNI: True
  podSubnet: "10.254.0.0/16"
  serviceSubnet: "172.30.0.0/16"
nodes:
- role: control-plane
- role: control-plane
- role: control-plane
- role: worker
- role: worker
- role: worker

So I tried a simpler config...

kind: Cluster
apiVersion: kind.sigs.k8s.io/v1alpha3
nodes:
- role: control-plane
- role: worker

So it's network related. I'll try 0.8.1 to see.

I'll also upload the logs

[christianh814]

v0.8.1 gave me the same result. I believe it's network related

[we're debugging in slack, tentatively an issue with firewalld]

for anyone following along, discussion in this thread: https://kubernetes.slack.com/archives/CEKK1KTN2/p1588378366006900

[BenTheElder]

looking around it sounds like firewalld and docker do not work well together firewalld/firewalld#461

[BenTheElder]

apparently disabling firewalld worked

[BenTheElder]

i'm not sure what we can do here, based on the logs in slack it seems that firewalld breaks containers being able to reach to each other over a docker network which is standard docker functionality (e.g. compose uses this)
