3 years ago

v0.9.0 Focuses on stability enhancements following v0.8.0 / v0.8.1, a new wave of features will ship in v0.10.0.

Breaking changes have been kept to a minimum, primarily that Kubernetes v1.12.X is no longer supported to make way for some fixes requiring beta-grade kubeadm.

Breaking Changes

  • The default node image is a Kubernetes v1.19.1 image: kindest/node:v1.19.1@sha256:98cf5288864662e37115e362b23e4369c8c4a408f99cbc06e58ac30ddc721600
  • Node images built with kind v0.9.0 require using kind v0.9.0+.
    • These images should mostly work with older releases but may not work offline.
    • Images from kind v0.8.0+ should still work but lack some internal improvements
  • Support has been dropped for Kubernetes older than v1.13.0.
    • A detailed support policy is in the works. The Kubernetes project only supports v1.16+ currently.
    • UPDATE: Kubernetes v1.14+ is required for multi-node clusters. See #1744 (comment)
  • Building Kubernetes with bazel will only work with Kubernetes v1.15+
    • Building without bazel still works back to v1.13.0
  • v1alpha3 kind config is no longer supported. Please upgrade to v1alpha4 (which was already the current version in previous releases)
  • Capital letters in cluster names are explicitly rejected by kind, in order to prevent encountering upstream issues with name validation

UPDATE: If you are hitting label key and value greater than maximum size (4096 bytes), key: containerd: invalid argument (containerd/cri#1572), then try the following KIND config:

kind: Cluster
apiVersion: kind.x-k8s.io/v1alpha4
containerdConfigPatches:
- |-
  [plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd]
  disable_snapshot_annotations = true

See: https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/configuration/#getting-started for how to use a KIND config file.

New Features

  • NFS volumes should now work
  • Kubernetes RuntimeConfig is now first class in kind config
  • Upgraded dependencies across the board
  • Nodes now have a tenative providerID value set. We commit to the kind:// prefix but the rest of the contents may change.
  • The base image is tentatively multi-arch by default. The node image is still not as of yet.
  • More values are automatically included in no_proxy when proxies are detected
  • The default CNI shoult automatically match MTU to the underlying bridge
  • Binaries are now stripped of debugger (not stacktrace) info for smaller binaries

New Node images have been built for kind v0.9.0, please use these exact images (IE like v1.19.1:@sha256:98cf5288864662e37115e362b23e4369c8c4a408f99cbc06e58ac30ddc721600 including the digest) or build your own as we may need to change the image format again in the future 😅
