救火分享：记一次 K8s 控制平面排障的血泪经历！

2022-08-10 16:52:22

集群以及环境信息的信息：

k8s v1.18.4
3 节点 Master 均为 8核 16G，50Gi-SSD
差异化配置的 19 节点 Minion
control-plane 组件 (kube-apiserver，etcd，kube-controller-manager，kube-scheduler) 以 static-pod 的模式进行部署
3 个 kube-apiserver 前端有一个 VIP 进行流量的 LoadBalance
腾讯云的 SSD 性能大概是 130MB/s

故障描述

在2021-9-10下午“诡异”的事情开始出现：kubectl 偶尔卡住无法正常 CRUDW 标准资源 (Pod, Node 等)，此时已经意识到是部分的 kube-apiserver 无法正常工作，然后尝试分别接入 3 台 kube-apiserver 所在宿主机，发现以下不正常的情况：

现场的信息

k8s control-plane kube-apiserver Pod 信息：


$ kubectl get pods -n kube-system kube-apiserver-x.x.x.x -o yaml...  containerStatuses:  - containerID: docker://xxxxx    ....    lastState:      terminated:        containerID: docker://yyyy        exitCode: 137        finishedAt: "2021-09-10T09:29:02Z"        reason: OOMKilled        startedAt: "2020-12-09T07:02:23Z"    name: kube-apiserver    ready: true    restartCount: 1    started: true    state:      running:        startedAt: "2021-09-10T09:29:08Z"...

9月10日，kube-apiserver 因为 OOM 被 Kill 过。

周边监控

IaaS 层提供监控信息 (control-plane 所在宿主的黑盒监控信息)：

有效信息：

内存、CPU、读取磁盘呈现正相关，并且在9月10日开始明显下降各方面指标回归正常

Kube-apiserver Prometheus 的监控信息：

有效信息：

kube-apiserver 的 IO 出现了问题，Prometheus 在中途的某段事件无法正常的刮取 kube-apiserver 的 metrics 指标
kube-apiserver 占用的内存单调递增，内部 workqueue 的 ADD iops 很高

实时的 Debug 信息

有效信息：

两个 Master 节点的内存都几乎被占用了 80%~90% 的样子
大量的内存都被 kube-apiserver 进程吃掉了
有一台 Master 组件格外特殊，除了内存之外，CPU 也已经被打满，并且大量的 CPU 陷入内核态，wa 很高
机器上几乎每个进程都 “ 疯 “ 了，都在进行大量的读盘操作，接入的 shell 已经基本不可用
内存消耗相对较低（当时占用 8Gi）的 Master 节点上，kube-apiserver 曾经被 OOM-Kill 过

一些疑问以及相关的猜想

为什么 kube-apiserver 消耗大量内存？

存在 Client 在进行全量 List 核心资源
etcd 无法提供正常服务，引发 kube-apiserver 无法正常为其他的 control-plane 组件无法提供选主服务，kube-controller-manager, kube-scheduler 不断重启，不断 ListAndWatch 进而打垮整个机器
kube-apiserver 代码有 bug，存在内存泄漏

etcd 集群为何无法正常工作？

etcd 集群内网络抖动
磁盘性能下降，无法满足正常的 etcd 工作
etcd 所在宿主机计算资源匮乏 (CPU，RAM)，etcd 只能分配到很少的时间轮片。而代码中设置的网络描述符的 Deadline 到期

kube-controller-manager，kube-scheduler 这种无状态服务为什么会大量的读盘？

kube-controller-manager，kube-scheduler 读取本地的配置文件
操作系统内存极度紧缩的情况下，会将部分代码段很大的进程的内存页驱逐。保证被调度的进程能够运行。当被驱逐的进程再度被调度的时候会重新读入内存。这样会导致 I/O 增加

可以看到对 etcd 的操作耗时越来越慢。并且后甚至丢失了与 etcd 的连接

可以看出，该节点的 etcd 与集群中的其他节点的通信也异常了。无法正常对外提供服务

深入调查

查看 kube-apiserver Heap-Profile

获取到 kube-apiserver 近的 Profile 可以发现大量的内存都被 registry(*Store).DeleteCollection 吃掉了。DeleteCollection 会先进行 List 操作，然后并发删除每个 Item。瞬间吃掉大量内存也在情理之中。也许我这么倒霉，这次抓的时候就正好处于 Delete 的疯狂调用期间，休息 10 分钟，等下再抓一次看看。

怎么回事？怎么 DeleteCollection 还是持有这么多内存。此处其实已经开始怀疑 kube-apiserver 有 goroutine 泄漏的可能了。

看来 heap 的 Profile 无法提供足够的信息进行进一步的问题确定，继续抓取 kube-apiserver goroutine 的 profile

查看 kube-apiserver goroutine-profile

果然大量密集的 goroutine 全部都 Block 在 chan send，并且时间上很密集。DeleteCollection 该接口的调用一般都是 kube-controller-manager 的 namespace_deleter。如果 kube-apiserver 的接口调用异常会进行 Backoff，然后继续请求，此处的异常是和 kube-apiserver 的通讯没问题，但是 kube-apiserver 无法正常和 etcd 交互。

查看 kube-controller-manager 的日志

虽然没有输出调用 DeleteCollection 相关的日志，但是 kube-controller-manager 进行 LeaderElection 的 ConfigMap 也无法正常的刷新了。并且报错也非常明确的指出是 kube-apiserver 请求 etcd 出现 timeout。

kube-apiserver DeleteCollection 实现


func (e *Store) DeleteCollection(ctx context.Context, deleteValidation rest.ValidateObjectFunc, options *metav1.DeleteOptions, listOptions *metainternalversion.ListOptions) (runtime.Object, error) {
    ... listObj, err := e.List(ctx, listOptions) if err != nil {  return nil, err } items, err := meta.ExtractList(listObj) ... wg := sync.WaitGroup{} toProcess := make(chan int, 2*workersNumber) errs := make(chan error, workersNumber+1)
 go func() {  defer utilruntime.HandleCrash(func(panicReason interface{}) {   errs <- fmt.Errorf("DeleteCollection distributor panicked: %v", panicReason)  })  for i := ; i < len(items); i++ {   toProcess <- i  }  close(toProcess) }()
 wg.Add(workersNumber) for i := ; i < workersNumber; i++ {  go func() {   // panics don't cross goroutine boundaries   defer utilruntime.HandleCrash(func(panicReason interface{}) {    errs <- fmt.Errorf("DeleteCollection goroutine panicked: %v", panicReason)   })   defer wg.Done()
   for index := range toProcess {       ...    if _, _, err := e.Delete(ctx, accessor.GetName(), deleteValidation, options.DeepCopy()); err != nil && !apierrors.IsNotFound(err) {     klog.V(4).InfoS("Delete object in DeleteCollection failed", "object", klog.KObj(accessor), "err", err)     errs <- err     return    }   }  }() } wg.Wait() select { case err := <-errs:  return nil, err default:  return listObj, nil }}

如果e.Delete发生异常（也就是我们场景下的 etcd 异常）。worker goroutine 将会正常退出，但是任务分配 goroutine 无法正常退出，Block 在发送 toProcess chan 的代码块中。如果该 Goroutine 无法结束，那么通过 etcd 的 List 接口获取到的 items 也无法被 GC，在内存中大量堆积，导致 OOM。
