…reconcile Before Kubernetes 1.34 the apiserver rejects PreferSameZone and PreferSameNode on a Service, and ensureServices runs ahead of bootstrap, scaling and member replacement, so the rejection stopped the whole cluster. An apiserver that does not know the field drops it instead, so the drift check never converged and the Service was patched on every reconcile. Reconcile the client Service without the value when the apiserver rejects it or does not persist it, emit a Warning Event on the EtcdCluster, and back the value off for an hour so it is neither resent every reconcile nor lost once the apiserver is upgraded.

The cluster controller recognises a rejected trafficDistribution by an Invalid error whose causes all name spec.trafficDistribution. Check that against the envtest apiserver, which before 1.34 refuses PreferSameZone. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Andrei Kvapil <kvapss@gmail.com>

Clear the trafficDistribution backoff when the spec is unset.
After an unsupported value is rejected, removing spec.clientService.trafficDistribution leaves the backoff entry active. Restoring the same value before the one-hour expiry then suppresses it, so the value is not retried on the next reconcile. Clear the entry when the configuration is absent.

What
Follow-up to #376, addressing the two deferred review comments on how
spec.clientService.trafficDistributionbehaves on apiservers that only partly support it.PreferSameZone/PreferSameNodeon a Service): the operator now reconciles the client Service without the field and keeps going, instead of returning the error fromensureServicesand stopping bootstrap, scaling, member replacement and status updates for the whole cluster.trafficDistribution, e.g. 1.29 and 1.30): the operator checks the Service the apiserver returns, and when the value did not survive it stops resending it instead of patching the Service on every reconcile.In both cases a Warning Event is emitted on the
EtcdCluster(TrafficDistributionRejected/TrafficDistributionNotPersisted), and the value is backed off for an hour. After that it is tried again, so it lands on its own once the apiserver is upgraded, without an operator restart. Changing the value in the spec retries at once.Details
spec.trafficDistributionis worked around; a Service that is invalid for any other reason is still a reconcile error.eventsRBAC rule was already in the chart (from the defrag controllers), so the generated role does not change.Testing
Invaliderrors still propagate, no resend and no repeated Event within the backoff, retry after it, and a spec change clearing it.PreferSameZonerejection; skips on 1.34+ where the value is accepted.make testpasses;make generate manifestsproduces no drift.Summary by CodeRabbit
