Eventing

Meta

• Minimum Kubernetes version is now 1.16.

Action Required

• Eventing v1alpha1 API is removed.
  You must run pre-install job prior to upgrading to get Brokers storage version updated to v1beta1 API. (#3262, @vaikas)
• flows.v1alpha1 is deleted, you must migrate to flows.v1beta1. (#3264, @vaikas)
  messaging.v1alpha1 is deleted, you must migrate to messaging.v1beta1. (#3275, @vaikas)
• Remove ChannelBasedBroker. (#3212, @vaikas)
• When upgrading from 0.15, there is an upgrade script to clean up old brokers and migrate them to the MTBroker implementation. (docs#2640 , @n3wscott)
• Automatic Broker creation by labeling namespaces or annotating triggers has been moved to the sugar-controller component. If you rely on namespace/trigger labelings to create Brokers, you must install the sugar-controller component to retain these features. (#3459, @n3wscott)
• IF DOWNGRADING FROM 0.16 back to 0.15.x you must first manually patch (or edit) subscriptions.messaging.knative.dev CRD like so:
  kubectl patch crd subscriptions.messaging.knative.dev --type='json' -p '[{"op" : "remove", "path" : "/spec/conversion/webhook"},{"op":"replace", "path":"/spec/conversion/strategy","value" : "None"}]' (#3461, @vaikas)
• When upgrading from 0.15.0 or 0.15.1, the upgrade may fail on the first attempt but succeed on the second attempt. Between the first and second attempts the webhook will be unavailable and no changes to Knative objects will be accepted. To avoid this, first upgrade to 0.15.2 before upgrading to 0.16.0.

Bug Fixes

• BrokerClass annotation is supposed to be immutable but was not properly wired through, make it so. (#3523, @vaikas)
• Make channel.spec.channeltemplate immutable as it should be. (#3520, @vaikas)
• Subscription.spec.channel should be immutable, it’s even being tested but not actually wired through. (#3522, @vaikas)
• The code that was ensuring that trigger.spec.broker field was immutable was never called. Well, except in the unit tests… (#3517, @vaikas)
• PingSource and ApiServerSource set extension headers for ceOverride (#3334, @cr22rc)
• Sequence now properly propagates the Delivery options to underlying Subscriptions. (#3146, @vaikas)
• Fix mixed v1beta1 and v1alpha1 Subscriptions (#3049, @vaikas)
• SUBSCRIBER_URI was not printed on for triggers (#3013, @matzew)
• adding webhook details to eventypes CRD for conversion (#3063, @matzew)
• API Server source supports now non-namespaced resources. (#2930, @odacremolbap)
• When default broker is created via namespace reconciler, the Kubernetes events will be created in the correct namespace instead of some of them getting created in default namespace. (#3258, @devguyio)
• Don't allow creation of brokers without BrokerClassAnnotation. (#3507, @vaikas)

Other Changes

• Add Eventing sources conformance test for validating required labels on Eventing source CRDs (#3363, @devguyio)
• Add Eventing sources conformance test for validating required labels on Eventing source CRDs (#3363, @devguyio)
• Bumps K8s dependencies to 1.17.5. This makes our minimum K8s version 1.16 (#3163, @dprotaso)
• Eventing Webhooks now use apiextensions.k8s.io/v1 APIs. to ensure smooth upgradability user has to upgrade eventing from eventing version 0.15.2. Or else, Upgrade might have to be attempted twice, which might have some ramifications such as webhook downtime. (#3409, @anishj0shi)
• Leader election config only supports lease locks (#3514, @dprotaso)
• Optionally apply /post-install-to-v0.16.0.yaml to clean up leftover Broker resources in all namespaces. (#3439, @n3wscott)
• Our CustomResourceDefinitions now use apiextensions.k8s.io/v1 APIs (#3360, @matzew)
• Reconcile PingSource using v1alpha2 API (#3274, @lionelvillard)
• Reconcile Brokers using v1beta1 API (#3238, @vaikas)
• Expanded the Channel data plane conformance test (@3394, @slinkydeveloper)
• Fix bug which could cause flakiness in the IMC because IMC Dispatcher was configured for normal reconciler instead of readonly. This could cause races. (3686, @vaikas). (4280, @vaikas)
• Fix bug which could cause Trigger Dependency flakiness because we were incorrectly setting up the informer tracking the dependent sources. (4294, @vaikas). (4296, @vaikas)
