2 years ago

We are excited to announce another feature packed release of Ceph CSI , v3.7.0. This is another great step towards making it possible to use enhanced features of Container Storage Interface ( CSI) with Ceph Cluster in the backend. With this release, we are introducing many brand new features and enhancements to Ceph CSI driver. Also this release enabled a smooth integration to various projects. Here are the changelog / release highlights..

Changelog and Highlights:

Features

  • KMIP integration for RBD PVC encryption
    • The Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP)
      is an extensible communication protocol
      that defines message formats for the manipulation
      of cryptographic keys on a key management server.
      Ceph-CSI can now be configured to connect to
      various KMS using KMIP for encrypting RBD volumes.
  • NFS
    • Added support for volume expansion, snapshot, restore and clone.
    • Added NFS nodeserver within CephCSI with support for pod networking with nsenter.
  • Support enabling PV and snapshot metadata on the RBD images and CephFS subvolumes
    • For persistent volumes, clones and volume restores we support adding PVName/PVCName/PVCNamespace and ClusterName details
    • For snapshot volumes we support adding snapshot-name/snapshot-namespace/snapshotcontent-name and ClusterName details
  • Shallow Read Only support for Ceph CSI driver:

Enhancements

  • All kubernetes sidecars ( external provisioner,snapshotter, resizer..etc) are rebased to latest available versions. Along with other dependency module updates this release consume go-ceph v0.17.0 and kubernetes 1.24.4 version.
  • snapshot API support has been lifted to GA version in this release.
  • From this release onwards, the CSI driver make use of File fsgroup policy for its fsgroup based operations.
  • New feature gates are enabled ( HonorPVReclaimPolicy..etc) in the sidecar deployments.

Bug Fixes

  • While mounting the volume, CSI drivers no longer open world wide permission on mount path ( See ).
  • Support linux kernels <=4.11.0, /sys/bus/rbd/supported_features is part of Linux kernel v4.11.0, prepare the supported feature attributes and use them in case if supported_features file is missing (See #2678)
  • Fix volume healer for StagingTargetPath issue for Kubernetes 1.24 (See #3176)
  • RBACs are restricted to a great extend in this release version compared to previous. The CSI driver operate on least required RBAC in a cluster from now on.

E2E

  • many tests are added for making sure we stay with backward compatibility for existing features of v3.6.
  • new tests are added for features introduced in this release
  • lots of cleanup and deprecated API removals done on the test framework
  • Dropped support for kubernetes v<=1.22 tests in the framework

Deprecation

  • Volumereplication service running on controller server is deprecated and replaced by CSI-Addons, see #3314 for more details
  • cephfs provisioner will not make use of attacher sidecar from this release onwards. See #3149 for more details

Breaking Changes

  • NFS daemonset is renamed from csi-nfs-node to csi-nfsplugin, refer to upgrade steps for more details.
