We're using terraform kops provider to manage our AWS kops clusters. Time to time we hit a race condition which the stack trace points to awsup.NewAWSCloud function, when writing to a map that holds the relationship regions to AWSCloud objects.

This PR changes this map to a new variable so it belongs to a new type, that wraps the map into its own struct where access is controlled by a mutex lock.

Let me know if that makes sense to you all.

Thanks for building this awesome project!

Hi @fcgravalos. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes/test-infra repository.

We're using terraform kops provider to manage our AWS kops clusters.
Time to time we hit a race condition with the stack trace points to
`awsup.NewAWSCloud` function, when writing to a concurrent map, that
maintains a map between regions and `AWSCloud` objects.

This PR changes this to variable so it belongs to a new type, that wraps
the map into its own struct where access is controlled by a mutex lock.

Let me know if that makes sense to you all.

@hakman made another change to make sure concurrent access to the ResetAWSCloudInstances is safe too, I believe this now requires again the /ok-to-test command? sorry about that.

I think mutexes need to be used both in write and read places, not just write.

@hakman added locking on reads too
