…icyactivity Non-cluster host fluent-bit ships policy activity logs to Linseed via voltron's /ingestion/api/v1/policy_activity/logs/bulk route. Without 'create' on linseed.tigera.io/policyactivity, voltron returns 401 Unauthorized from the per-target RBAC authorizer and records never reach Linseed.

Summary
policyactivityto thelinseed.tigera.iocreaterule on thetigera-noncluster-hostClusterRole.Why
Non-cluster host (NCH) fluent-bit posts policy activity records to voltron at
/ingestion/api/v1/policy_activity/logs/bulk. Voltron's proxy authorizes each request against the caller's k8s RBAC with resourcepolicyactivityin grouplinseed.tigera.io(see voltronmain.goNCH routeAuthorizationAttributesFunc). Without this permission, voltron returns 401 Unauthorized and NCH policy activity logs never reach Linseed.The in-cluster fluentd-node SA already has this permission (
pkg/render/fluentd.go:1012). This patch brings the NCH SA to parity for the NCH ingestion path.This is the NCH counterpart of #4712, which granted the calico-manager SA
geton the same resource for the query-side path.Test plan
go test ./pkg/render/nonclusterhost/...passes.calicoctl get sgnps --show-policy-activitiesreturns fresh timestamps for HEP-tier SGNPs.Release Note
