Verdict
NOT LGTM
The blocker is the Gateway API bundle skew, which is the same [MAJOR] I filed on 2026-08-21 and not a consequence of the force-push.
Before the findings, a correction about my own earlier reviews. Both were dismissed by the 2026-09-02 force-push, and my previous one graded the bundle skew [MAJOR], said it "should land after #3872", and then signed LGTM anyway. That was inconsistent, and the change here is in my grading rather than in your code. #3872 still has not landed on this base.
Findings
[MAJOR] packages/core/platform/sources/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller.yaml:16, the controller requires a Gateway API bundle cozystack does not ship
Upstream v3.4.1 compares major and minor for exact equality against the bundle it was built against:
// internal/controller/gatewayclass_controller.go:285-290 @ v3.4.1
if installedMajor != expectedMajor || installedMinor != expectedMinor {
return false, fmt.Sprintf(
"Gateway API CRD bundle version %s is not supported; controller requires %d.%d.x",
installed, expectedMajor, expectedMinor,
), nil
}$ grep -rn "bundle-version" packages/system/gateway-api-crds/templates/crds-experimental.yaml | head -1
7: gateway.networking.k8s.io/bundle-version: v1.5.1
So every stock install brings GatewayClass/cloudflare-tunnel up Accepted=True next to a permanent SupportedVersion=False with reason UnsupportedVersion, and the Gateway API CRDs being structural means any field the controller writes that exists only in the 1.6 bundle is pruned on write with nothing logged. docs/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway.md:162 already says exactly this and tells the reader to treat the skew as a real signal. Writing the hazard down does not remove it. Land this after the bundle bump, or pin a chart built against 1.5.x.
[MAJOR] packages/system/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller/values.yaml:56-63, the hostname-ownership control is tested on its flags and not on its decision
With admissionPolicy: false, the controller-side layer is the only thing keeping a route in one namespace from answering for another namespace's hostname once a second Gateway joins the class. tests/wiring_test.yaml:81-97 asserts that the four flags reach the container args. Nothing asserts an allow or a deny. packages/system/cozystack-basics sets the in-tree precedent for the equivalent control: CEL-level unit tests plus a chainsaw suite for cozystack-route-hostname-policy. This class has neither, and the PR body states there is no e2e.
The failure is a re-vendor. A make update that renames the flag, changes its default, or changes how --hostname-ownership-namespace-selector is parsed leaves the wiring test green, because the strings it greps for did not move, while the layer stops deciding. Nothing turns red.
Calibrating this honestly: it is an unprotected control rather than a live hole. No tenant-aggregated ClusterRole in packages/system/cozystack-basics/templates/clusterroles.yaml grants gateway.networking.k8s.io or cf.k8s.lex.la, and the tenant gateway HelmRelease at packages/apps/tenant/templates/gateway.yaml carries no spec.values, so gatewayClassName has no tenant-reachable surface. What I want is a provider-seeded unit case per vector (in-apex accepted, hostname-less rejected, foreign-apex GRPCRoute rejected, unlabelled namespace out of scope) so the semantic is pinned in this repo and not only in the upstream one.
What would change my mind: an assertion in this repo that fails when the ownership decision changes, wherever it lives.
[MINOR] docs/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway.md:17, the API token's reach is understated
Cloudflare offers no resource-scoped API token for a single tunnel, so Account → Cloudflare Tunnel → Edit can act on every tunnel in the account. Line 19's "Give the controller a tunnel of its own" bounds what the controller manages, not what the credential can reach. The Limitations section spells out the in-cluster blast radius in detail and leaves the Cloudflare-side one out, which is the one an operator cannot revoke per-tunnel afterwards. Raised on 2026-08-17 and still not in the text.
[MINOR] packages/system/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller/charts/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller/templates/deployment-proxy.yaml:23, the internet-facing proxy runs on the namespace default ServiceAccount with its token mounted
$ yq -r 'select(.kind=="Deployment") | .metadata.name + " sa=" + (.spec.template.spec.serviceAccountName // "<none>")' rendered.yaml
cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller-proxy sa=<none> automount=<unset>
cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller sa=cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller
Unlike the controller, the proxy template sets no serviceAccountName, so it takes default and mounts its token. This is the pod that terminates every inbound request arriving from the Cloudflare edge. automountServiceAccountToken: false on the pod, or a dedicated tokenless SA, costs nothing. Vendored, so it wants a patches/*.diff here or a change upstream.
[MINOR] .../templates/deployment-proxy.yaml:8, two proxy replicas with nothing keeping them apart
No affinity, no topologySpreadConstraints, and templates/poddisruptionbudget.yaml:19-20 selects cf-tunnel-gw-ctrl.selectorLabels, which is the controller's label set rather than proxySelectorLabels, so the budget would not cover the proxy even when enabled (it is off by default). Both replicas can land on one node, and then a single drain or reboot takes down every hostname published through the class at once. docs:157 states the replica count without this.
[MINOR] packages/system/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller/Makefile:12-13 and values.yaml:45,48, four pins with nothing to update them
.github/renovate.json enables gomod, dockerfile, github-actions and custom.regex, and its two custom managers target packages/extra/etcd/templates/etcd-cluster.yaml and packages/*/templates/hooks/*.yaml. Neither pattern reaches this package, so CHART_VERSION, CHART_DIGEST and both tag: values age silently, upstream security fixes included. Those managers exist because the repo already decided a hand-maintained pin is a hazard. packages/system/kuberture carries the identical gap, which is the only reason this is MINOR rather than MAJOR, and a third instance is the point at which a shared regex manager is cheaper than a third exception.
[MINOR] docs/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway.md:19, exclusive tunnel ownership does not name the second-cluster case
The warning covers a tunnel shared with another system. The tunnel ID lives on a Package CR, so the ordinary way to end up with two owners is a cluster restored from backup, a staging clone, or a rebuild that reuses the ID. Two controllers then each perform a full sync and delete the other's ingress rules, and the resulting outage is public and flapping. One sentence in that paragraph covers it.
[NIT] .github/workflows/pr-labeler.yaml:108
'cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller' duplicates what the shorter key already provides for every commit scope in this PR, so one of the two entries is dead.
Claim mismatches
[PARTIAL] "That one is cosmetic: the controller starts from v1.5.0 and everything it uses is present, a Gateway API bump to 1.6.x clears it". Upstream's check is exact major-and-minor equality against the bundle it was built against, and its own message reads "controller requires 1.6.x" (internal/controller/gatewayclass_controller.go:285-290 at v3.4.1). docs:162 in this same PR takes the opposite position and calls the skew a real signal. The "cosmetic" framing does not survive either source.
[UNVERIFIABLE] The live-cluster narrative in the body (four QUIC connectors, HTTP 200 end to end through the edge, HostnameNotPermitted on the hostname-less and foreign-hostname probes). A static review can neither confirm nor refute it, and no test in this repo encodes any of it, which is what finding 2 is about.
Caveats
- Phase 5b upgrade path, partially unexecuted. Whether the operator-set
gatewayClassConfig.tunnelIDsurvives a platform re-apply ofcontroller.clusterDomainstill has not been exercised against a real apiserver. The code now defends it: thewithguard atpackages/core/platform/templates/bundles/system.yaml:352-354keeps thecontrollermap rendered so the enclosingcomponentspath never collapses, and the two new platform tests pin the empty and absent cases. I confirmed the operator builds neitherdriftDetectionnorforceinto the generated HelmRelease (internal/operator/package_reconciler.go:73-108), so nothing corrects the hand-added key as drift. The apply is what remains unrun, andcozystack-pr-testis where it belongs. - Air-gapped installs need manual mirroring. Both images sit under
ghcr.io/lexfreiand neither goes throughinclude "cozy-lib.image", socozy-lib.images-registrycannot rewrite them. The release enumeration drops them by design:collect_refs_from_fileon the wrapper values emits two host-less refs, and the${REGISTRY}/filter athack/promote-retag.sh:165skips them. The comment added there describes the mechanism accurately. - Everything in this review is static. No cluster was touched.
Verified, so it does not get re-litigated next round:
- The vendored tree is byte-identical to upstream at
CHART_DIGEST. I pulledoci://ghcr.io/lexfrei/charts/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller@sha256:398a4787...anddiff -rreports no differences, so thecharts-direct-editlint is a false positive here and the missingpatches/re-apply inmake updateis latent rather than live. - Both image digests resolve to the pinned values on ghcr.io (
docker-content-digeston tag3.4.1for both repositories). - The package is inert when not enabled, and
disabledPackagesvetoes it. Rendered both corners; only the PackageSource appears, no Package CR and so no HelmRelease. - The
dependsOnclosure renders in all three shipped presets.cozystack.networkingandcozystack.gateway-api-crdsare both present underisp-full,isp-full-genericandisp-hosted, so this is not a #3376-shapedDependenciesNotReady. - Cross-namespace
backendRefis gated by ReferenceGrant and fails closed on a read error (internal/ingress/builder.go:178-189andinternal/controller/proxy_syncer.go:662-672at v3.4.1). gateways: update, patchis not gratuitous: the controller strips a legacy finalizer (internal/controller/gateway_controller.go:165-174), and RBAC cannot scopeupdateto metadata. I withdraw that half of my earlier RBAC note.networking.clusterDomainis the same source that feeds_cluster.cluster-domainatpackages/core/platform/templates/apps.yaml:140, so threading it is equivalent rather than a second source of truth.- No Helm hooks, no
checksum/*annotations, no post-installrollout restart, no cleanup Job anywhere in the chart, so the reconcile-amplifier and teardown-hang classes do not apply. - The negative absence asserts use
any: trueinsidecontainsDocumentrather thandocumentIndex, which is the shape that actually searches every document. - 11 of 11 mutations across both suites went red, including dropping the
enabledPackagesgate, collapsing thecontrollermap, and flippinghostnameOwnershipPolicy.enabled.
Recommended follow-ups
- Run
cozystack-pr-teston a disposable cluster for the one render-blind item: enable the package, settunnelIDby hand, force a platform reconcile, and confirm the key is still there. - Add a regex manager to
.github/renovate.jsoncovering the twotag:pins and the Makefile pair, and foldpackages/system/kubertureinto the same pattern.

This repository cannot pin the decision: the logic is an internal/ package of the upstream module, SyncAllRoutes returns at ResolveAccountID before any route is bound, and the vendored chart's .helmignore drops upstream's tests/. Upstream pins all four vectors through both layers. Added here: negative cases proving these values are what select the layer and that the selector flag is derived, both mutation-checked (18860ed).

Pushed 18860ed. The bundle requirement is a hard one and the docs and body say so now; this PR lands after #3872 and carries a hold until then. On the ownership decision, the honest answer is that this repository cannot pin it: the logic sits in an |
…RPCRoute hostnames (#3872) ## What this PR does Bumps the vendored Gateway API CRD bundle in `packages/system/gateway-api-crds` from v1.5.1 to v1.6.1. The package Makefile pins the upstream ref, so the change is that pin plus the re-rendered `templates/crds-experimental.yaml`. The bundle version is not only bookkeeping: it is a compatibility signal consumers read at runtime. Every CRD in the bundle carries a `gateway.networking.k8s.io/bundle-version` annotation, and a Gateway API controller can read it off the `gatewayclasses` CRD to decide whether the installed bundle matches the one it was built against. Controllers that do this typically accept any patch release but require an exact major and minor match, and report `SupportedVersion=False` with reason `UnsupportedVersion` on their GatewayClass when the minor differs, a status condition that surfaces the skew rather than a functional break. The Cloudflare Tunnel Gateway API controller proposed for the platform in #3858 is built against Gateway API v1.6.1 and performs exactly that comparison, so against the v1.5.1 bundle shipped today its GatewayClass reports the bundle unsupported, and with this bump it reports supported. Neither change depends on the other landing first: this PR only moves the bundle, and the check lives entirely on the consumer side. One consequence worth stating plainly, since it will outlive this PR: an exact-minor check makes the shipped bundle version a coupled pin for any such controller. A future bump to v1.7.x flips the same condition back to `UnsupportedVersion` until that controller is rebuilt against the newer bundle, so the two want to move together. The bundle still emits the same twelve CustomResourceDefinitions and the same two `safe-upgrades.gateway.networking.k8s.io` admission objects, and every CRD still carries the `helm.sh/resource-policy: keep` stamp the Makefile's post-processing step adds. One of the policy's two CEL rules is rewritten, though, and it changes what a cluster accepts. That has its own section below. Two kinds change their version surface: TCPRoute and UDPRoute gain a served `v1` that takes over as the storage version, and their `v1alpha2` stays served with a deprecation marker. Every other kind keeps exactly the versions it served at v1.5.1. That matters because the Cilium operator resolves GatewayClass, Gateway, HTTPRoute and GRPCRoute in `v1`, ReferenceGrant in `v1beta1` and TLSRoute in `v1alpha2` before it enables its Gateway API controller; all six are still served by the v1.6.1 bundle. TLSRoute in particular keeps `v1alpha2`, which the tenant gateway controller, the platform TLSRoute templates and the tenant hostname admission policy all address. Schema changes are small and land on fields nothing in this repository sets. `sessionPersistence.idleTimeout` is gone from HTTPRoute, GRPCRoute and XBackendTrafficPolicy, removed upstream under GEP-1619 because no implementation ever implemented it and HTTP cookies have no native idle-timeout mechanism, so no working behaviour is lost even though the field disappears from the schema; HTTPRoute gains a lower bound on `retry.attempts` and now rejects duplicate `retry.codes`; ReferenceGrant requires `spec` at the root. In the other direction, Gateway infrastructure annotations and frontend CA certificate references go from a limit of 8 to 16, and TLSRoute hostnames from 16 to 1024. No CRD schema loses or changes a CEL validation rule, and the six added belong exclusively to the new TCPRoute and UDPRoute `v1` schemas. ### The safe-upgrades admission policy accepts a different set of bundles The experimental kustomization ships a `ValidatingAdmissionPolicy` and its binding, both named `safe-upgrades.gateway.networking.k8s.io`, next to the twelve CRDs. The binding is `validationActions: [Deny]` with `failurePolicy: Fail`, matching CREATE and UPDATE on `apiextensions.k8s.io/v1 customresourcedefinitions` cluster-wide, and Cozystack installs it in two places: on the host through `cozystack.gateway-api-crds`, and inside every guest cluster that sets `addons.gatewayAPI.enabled`. Its second rule reads the `gateway.networking.k8s.io/bundle-version` annotation off an incoming CRD. At v1.5.1 that rule was a blacklist: reject anything matching `v1.[0-4].\d+` or containing `v0`, allow the rest. At v1.6.1 it is a whitelist: allow `v0.0.0-dev` outright, otherwise require the annotation to start with `v1.` and not match `^v1\.[0-4](\.|$)`. Evaluating both expressions over a spread of annotation values: | bundle-version | v1.5.1 policy | v1.6.1 policy | | --- | --- | --- | | `v1.6.1`, `v1.5.1`, `v1.5.0-dev`, `v1.10.0` | allow | allow | | `v1.4.0`, `v1.4.10`, `v1.0.0` | reject | reject | | `v0.0.0-dev` | reject | **allow** | | `v2.0.0` | allow | **reject** | | `1.6.1` (no leading `v`) | allow | **reject** | | `v1.4` (no patch) | allow | **reject** | | `main`, empty string | allow | **reject** | Nothing in this repository trips the new rejections: every CRD the bundle ships is stamped `v1.6.1`. What is exposed is an operator applying a Gateway API CRD set from somewhere else on a cluster that carries the policy. A fork, a vendor build or a nightly whose annotation reads `1.6.1` or `v2.0.0` used to go in and is now denied with `reason: Invalid`, naming a policy the operator may not know is installed, and whatever HelmRelease owns those CRDs then sits un-Ready. Uninstalling the policy is the escape hatch, and the denial message says so. The same hunk fixes an upstream inconsistency: at v1.5.1 the policy pair was stamped `v1.5.0-dev` while its twelve CRDs said `v1.5.1`. At v1.6.1 all fourteen documents agree. The Gateway and HTTPRoute objects the tenant gateway controller renders were serialized across all three certificate modes and checked against both the v1.5.1 and the v1.6.1 schemas; the two runs are identical, so the bump does not change what the controller can create. `go.mod` still pins `sigs.k8s.io/gateway-api` v1.4.1 and this PR deliberately leaves it there. The CRD bundle and the Go client types have been on separate versions since before this change, and nothing the controller emits depends on the gap. One thing to know before the next bump: from v1.6 on, the two things upstream calls the experimental bundle disagree. This package follows `config/crd/experimental`, the kustomization, which emits 12 CRDs at v1.6.1; the published `experimental-install.yaml` for the same tag emits 13, the extra one being `xbackends.gateway.networking.x-k8s.io`, new in v1.6 and not listed in the kustomization. At v1.5.1 the two agreed, so there was nothing to choose between. Nothing in this repository references XBackend and no vendored CRD depends on it, so following the kustomization costs nothing today, but whoever bumps next inherits the choice, and it should be made deliberately rather than by whichever command gets typed. The second commit corrects a comment this bump invalidated. It claimed TLSRoute stays at `v1alpha2` through Gateway API v1.5 and that the promotion to `v1` was still upstream-only; TLSRoute has been served at `v1` since v1.5.0, so the claim was already wrong before this bump and the version range it named is now wrong too. The third commit closes a gap that correction exposed. `cozystack-route-hostname-policy-tls` named `v1alpha2` alone while the bundle serves `tlsroutes` at `v1`, `v1alpha2` and `v1alpha3`: three served versions against one named. The gap is not new and this bump neither creates nor widens it: the v1.5.1 bundle and the v1.6.1 one serve the same three versions, with the same two marked deprecated. Coverage of the two unnamed versions rested entirely on request conversion, because `matchPolicy` is unset on both rules in that file and so defaults to `Equivalent`, which rewrites a request submitted under any served version into the one the rule names before the policy sees it. That is why there is no bypass to demonstrate, and equally why the arrangement is brittle: the conversion has nothing left to convert into once no named version is served, and a rule that selects nothing is not caught by `failurePolicy: Fail`, because nothing failed. The rule now names all three, which is the shape the HTTPRoute rule above it already used, and `hack/route-hostname-policy-version-coverage.bats` reads the served versions out of the vendored bundle and fails when a policy does not cover every one of them, so a future bundle move cannot outrun the list silently, in either direction. That guard carries negative fixtures rather than only watching a correct tree pass. Three of them drive `assert_covers` itself, with the two readers redefined in a subshell, against an omitted served version, an empty served set and an empty named set. Each requires the specific complaint text rather than merely a non-zero exit, so a helper renamed out from under it fails for the right reason instead of reading as a successful rejection. A fourth drives the comparison helper directly. The fourth commit pins the vendored bundle version in the CRD package's unit suite. Nothing outside the package Makefile named a Gateway API version, so re-running `make update` against a different ref landed green: twelve CRDs, every one stamped, document count unchanged, suite passing. The new case reads the `gateway.networking.k8s.io/bundle-version` annotation off every rendered CRD and fails when it is not the version the Makefile pins. The fifth commit extends the version-coverage guard to `cozystack-gateway-hostname-policy`, which names the `gateways` versions literally the same way the two route policies do, and whose version set lives in the vendored bundle and moves on `make update` there. It matched the served set already; the guard now says so on every run instead of leaving one of the three hostname policies unpinned. Two notes for whoever reads the release: the TCPRoute and UDPRoute storage version moves from `v1alpha2` to `v1`, and while nothing in this repository ships either kind and the CRDs declare no conversion block, an upgraded cluster accumulates both entries in `status.storedVersions` — inert today, load-bearing only if a later bundle stops serving `v1alpha2`. The sixth commit gives GRPCRoute the same hostname rule the other two route kinds have. GRPCRoute carries `spec.hostnames` and it can reach a tenant Gateway: the port-443 listeners pin `allowedRoutes.kinds` to HTTPRoute and TLSRoute, but the port-80 listener leaves `kinds` unset, and an unset list resolves to the kinds the listener protocol supports, which for HTTP includes GRPCRoute. A GRPCRoute in a tenant namespace could claim any hostname on the plaintext listener with nothing checking it. Tenants hold no `gateway.networking.k8s.io` RBAC in Cozystack, so this is the same defence-in-depth against a chart bug that the other two rules are, not a tenant-user control. The rule is the HTTPRoute rule with `grpcroutes` in place of `httproutes` and the one version the bundle serves for it, and the coverage guard pins that list to the bundle like the others. Several places in the tree enumerate which route kinds the hostname policies cover, and all of them named two: the port-443 kinds invariant in the tenant gateway controller and the test that pins it, `packages/extra/gateway/README.md`, and the threat model together with the self-assessment. They name three now. The port-443 kinds set also carries an accurate reason now. cilium#45559 governs only that every port-443 listener carries the same set, not what is in it, so the contents are a least-privilege choice: nothing the platform ships needs gRPC, TCP or UDP routing on port 443. The README had also described HTTPS and TLS-passthrough listeners as carrying different kinds, where the controller gives both the same one. One more commit makes the suite's existing assertions bite. A ValidatingAdmissionPolicyBinding whose `policyName` points at another policy renders without complaint and leaves its own policy inert, and the suite pinned `validationActions` on the bindings while never pinning `policyName` at all, so pointing the GRPCRoute binding at the HTTPRoute policy kept every case green with the GRPCRoute control doing nothing. All three bindings now pin the policy they name. In the same file, `uncovered()` assigned to the variable names its caller reads back when printing a mismatch, so a call site with the arguments swapped would have printed a diagnostic naming the wrong side. Two things are named rather than made. The version-coverage guard collects `apiVersions` from every `resourceRules` entry mentioning the resource without also matching on `apiGroups` or `operations`, so a rule in another group, or one scoped to a single verb, would donate its versions to the set coverage is measured against; the chart's own suite pins the group and the resource on the rule it checks, which closes that a layer below. And `packages/system/cozystack-api/templates/api-tlsroute.yaml` renders `gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1alpha2` while the bundle serves `v1` as storage and marks `v1alpha2` deprecated, but the identical pin sits in the kubevirt and kubevirt-cdi TLSRoute templates, and the pinned `sigs.k8s.io/gateway-api` carries no `apis/v1` TLSRoute type for the controller side to follow, so moving one of the three here would leave the tree less consistent than leaving all three. Closes #3789. ### Screenshots Not a UI change. ### Downstream repositories Walked the trigger map in `docs/agents/contributing.md` against the diff, file by file: neither `packages/system/gateway-api-crds/Makefile` nor its rendered CRD template matches any entry. Leaving every box empty rather than ticking the "no downstream repository" line, because the docs site carries a Gateway API version statement that is already inaccurate and needs a decision that is not mine: `content/en/docs/next/networking/gateway-api.md` and its v1.5 and v1.6 copies say Gateway API v1.5 ships TLSRoute at `v1alpha2` and that the graduation to `v1` is still upstream-only, when v1.5.0 already shipped TLSRoute `v1` as the storage version. ### Release note ```release-note chore(gateway-api-crds): update the vendored Gateway API CRD bundle to v1.6.1. TCPRoute and UDPRoute gain a served v1 that becomes their storage version, with v1alpha2 still served and now deprecated; every other kind keeps the versions it served at v1.5.1. Upstream removed `sessionPersistence.idleTimeout` from HTTPRoute, GRPCRoute and XBackendTrafficPolicy; the field is not set by anything Cozystack renders, but a hand-written route that carries it loses it silently on its next write, with no admission error. The bundle's `safe-upgrades.gateway.networking.k8s.io` ValidatingAdmissionPolicy changes which CRDs it accepts. Cozystack installs it cluster-wide on the host and in every guest cluster with `addons.gatewayAPI.enabled`. Its `gateway.networking.k8s.io/bundle-version` rule was a blacklist on two patterns and is now a whitelist on the `v1.` prefix with a `v0.0.0-dev` escape hatch. A bundle annotated `v0.0.0-dev` is now accepted where it was denied. A bundle annotated `v2.0.0`, `1.6.1` without the leading `v`, `main`, `v1.4` without a patch, or carrying an empty annotation is now denied where it was accepted. Nothing Cozystack ships is affected, since every CRD in the bundle is stamped `v1.6.1`, but applying a Gateway API CRD set from a fork, a vendor build or a nightly on such a cluster can now fail admission with `reason: Invalid`. Uninstalling the policy remains the documented escape hatch. fix(cozystack-basics): the tenant TLSRoute hostname admission policy now names every served TLSRoute version (`v1`, `v1alpha2`, `v1alpha3`) instead of `v1alpha2` alone. Coverage of the other two rested on request conversion, which holds only while a named version stays served, and a rule left selecting nothing is not caught by `failurePolicy: Fail`. feat(cozystack-basics): GRPCRoute hostnames in `tenant-*` namespaces are now gated by the same admission policy that gates HTTPRoute and TLSRoute. A tenant Gateway's port-80 listener leaves `allowedRoutes.kinds` unset, which admits GRPCRoute by protocol default, so a GRPCRoute could claim any hostname on the plaintext listener unchecked. Tenants hold no `gateway.networking.k8s.io` RBAC, so this is defence-in-depth against a chart bug rather than a tenant-user control. ``` <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit - **New Features** - Added hostname admission validation for `GRPCRoute` resources. - Expanded `TLSRoute` hostname validation to support all served Gateway API versions. - Ensured route hostname policies consistently cover HTTP, TLS, and gRPC routes. - **Security** - Updated listener policies to restrict port-443 routes to supported HTTP and TLS route types. - Clarified fail-closed hostname validation behavior across Gateway, Route, and Ingress resources. - **Documentation** - Updated security and threat-model documentation to include GRPCRoute handling and validation coverage. - **Maintenance** - Updated the bundled Gateway API CRDs to version 1.6.1. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->
…lass for TLS termination (#3861) ## What this PR does Lets a tenant publish through a GatewayClass whose provider terminates TLS upstream of the Gateway, and gives the platform the two knobs that bound the choice. The first consumer is the Cloudflare Tunnel controller from #3858, which ends TLS at the Cloudflare edge and reaches the Gateway over the tunnel, but nothing here is tunnel-specific. Until now every cert mode rendered HTTPS listeners with `certificateRefs` and tied the TenantGateway's `Ready` to their issuance. On such a class the platform issued origin certificates nobody serves, and where ACME could not complete, the tenant's `gateway` release never became Ready at all. **Who picks the class.** The platform names a default in `gateway.className` and the set a tenant may choose from in `gateway.tenantSelectableClasses`; a tenant picks its own with `tenant.spec.gatewayClass`. That set is an allowlist rather than free choice because Tenant is a tenant-writable object while GatewayClass is cluster-scoped: without it a tenant could attach its Gateway to a class an admin keeps for internal-only traffic. Naming anything outside the set fails that tenant's own gateway release with a message listing what is allowed, and reaches no other tenant. **Where TLS ends.** That is a property of the class, not of the tenant, so it is declared once in `gateway.edgeTerminatedClasses`, and whichever class a tenant lands on decides its `certMode`. The two therefore cannot be configured out of step: a tenant on a tunnel class cannot keep issuing origin certificates because a separate switch still says otherwise. In `edge` the controller renders the apex, its wildcard and every inheriting child apex as plain HTTP listeners carrying the same label-based `allowedRoutes` as the HTTPS listeners of the other modes, so app HTTPRoutes attach by hostname unchanged. It mints no Issuer, no Certificate and no http-to-https redirect route, and skips the TLS-passthrough listeners an HTTP-only edge cannot serve, which leaves the tenant Kubernetes API, VM export and CDI upload endpoints unpublished through that Gateway. Those TLSRoutes each pinned a listener that no longer exists, so the controller flips the acceptance it wrote for them to `Accepted=False` with reason `NoMatchingParent`. Moving a tenant into the mode removes the ACME objects it owned, and the cluster-wide ACME solver drops its `sectionName: http` pin when the publishing Gateway itself sits on such a class. Pointing `gateway.className` at an edge class is therefore a supported topology (the whole platform behind one terminator), and its cost is that those three endpoints stop being published for the publishing tenant rather than for one tenant among many. Nothing refuses it, because refusing it would forbid the topology; `docs/gateway-classes.md` states the cost where an operator will meet it. Two consequences worth stating plainly. The wildcard-secret controller replicated the operator's TLS Secret, private key included, into every namespace owning a termination point, and a Gateway owner counted as one; a Gateway on an edge class does not, so that tenant's replica is pruned while its neighbours keep theirs. And listing a class as edge-terminated is a claim nothing validates: name the bundled `cilium` and its Gateways publish every app hostname over plain HTTP on a public address. A hard `fail` there would forbid a legitimate topology, a Cilium Gateway behind an external terminator, so it is stated in the platform values, the chart README and the CRD field description instead. **Documentation.** `docs/gateway-classes.md` is the operator-facing page for the whole surface: the three platform values and what each bounds, what a tenant writes to pick a class, how `certMode` is derived and in what precedence, what moving a tenant between classes does to its Issuer, its Certificates, the TLS Secrets those leave behind, the redirect route and the wildcard replica, and what each way of getting the names wrong actually looks like: a class name matching nothing installed renders fine and never programs, a misspelling in `edgeTerminatedClasses` silently leaves the tenant issuing certificates, a default moved out from under a tenant that pinned the old name fails that tenant's release. The chart README keeps the per-mode reference and gains the one constraint it had not stated: the publishing tenant cannot select a class that terminates TLS differently from the platform default, because the cluster-wide ACME issuers derive their solver pin from that default alone. Verified on a v1.6.0-rc.2 dev cluster (Talos, k8s 1.36, cilium 1.19.5) by building the controller from this branch: the CRD enum gained `edge`, the Gateway came up with `edge` / `edge-apex` / `edge-child-*` HTTP listeners and nothing else, no Issuer, no Certificate, no redirect route, and the LoadBalancer Service exposed 80/TCP only. That run also caught a defect no unit test could. The first implementation kept the hostname-less `:80` listener at index 0, and on cilium 1.19.5 `CheckGatewayAllowedForNamespace` is first-listener-wins ([cilium#42159](cilium/cilium#42159), fixed in 1.19.6), so an inheriting tenant's HTTPRoute came back `NotAllowedByListeners` even though a later listener admitted it. Dropping that listener, which in edge mode carries neither ACME nor the redirect, flipped the route to `Accepted=True` and removed a catch-all at the same time. The live check predates the redesign to per-tenant classes, so it exercised the mode rather than the selection path; the selection is covered by unit tests across the four charts and both controllers. Moving a live Gateway from one class to another is covered nowhere. `Gateway.spec.gatewayClassName` has no immutability rule in the shipped CRD, so the apiserver accepts the update; what the outgoing class controller then does with the LoadBalancer Service it provisioned was not exercised by the live run and no unit test reaches it. ### Screenshots Not a UI change. ### Downstream repositories - [ ] No downstream repository is affected by this change - [ ] [cozystack/website](https://github.com/cozystack/website) - follow-up: `networking/gateway-api.md` documents the platform `gateway.*` rows and the cert modes, so `className`, `tenantSelectableClasses`, `edgeTerminatedClasses` and `tenant.spec.gatewayClass` need a doc PR there; `docs/gateway-classes.md` from this PR is what that port starts from.

Verdict
NOT LGTM, and the reason is not in the code. Mechanically this is one of the cleanest package additions I have read in this repo — the pinning, the renovate wiring, the vendored-tree hygiene, the test discovery and the docs are all done properly, and the documentation discloses nearly every finding below before a reviewer gets there. What I am not willing to wave through is the authority the component carries and the fact that an operator cannot turn it off. Both are decisions for the project rather than defects for you to fix in a commit, so I would like them settled before this lands.
Why it exists, and whether the shape fits
The problem is real and the audience is not hypothetical: a cluster behind NAT, on-prem or in a homelab has no public LoadBalancer, and today that means no way to publish a tenant's routes at all. An outbound-only tunnel is the standard answer to that, and Cloudflare's is the one most people already have.
The shape fits the architecture rather than fighting it. It arrives as a GatewayClass beside the Cilium one, so tenants reach it through the Gateway API surface the platform already exposes, and the two pieces of platform work it needs were done first and separately: #3861 gave a tenant the ability to pick its class, and gave TenantGateway a mode for classes whose provider terminates TLS upstream so the controller stops minting an origin certificate nobody serves. That is the right order to have done things in, and it means this PR adds a package rather than a mechanism. No new CRD of ours, no new controller of ours, no abstraction spanning the platform — a vendored chart, a wrapper, and one line in the labeler. Proportionate.
Blocking: the authority, and that it cannot be narrowed
packages/system/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller/charts/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller/templates/clusterrole.yaml is 146 lines with no {{- if }} in it at all, bound cluster-wide by templates/clusterrolebinding.yaml. There is no rbac.create toggle, no namespaced variant, no resourceNames, no selector. Whatever it grants, it grants unconditionally, and the wrapper cannot trim it.
What it grants includes secrets: get, list, watch, create cluster-wide (:105-107) — every Secret in every namespace, which in this platform means tenant database passwords, TLS private keys and the Kamaji tenant control-plane kubeconfigs. The docs name that one. The stronger grant is the one below it: deployments: get, list, watch, create, update, patch, delete, also cluster-wide (:77-82). Creating a Deployment in a namespace lets the creator set serviceAccountName to any ServiceAccount in that namespace, and Kubernetes has no use-style check on that, so cluster-wide Deployment creation is a path to running a pod under a cluster-admin-bound ServiceAccount. services, horizontalpodautoscalers and networkpolicies carry the same create/update/delete shape. gatewayclasses and gateways carry update, patch on the main resource rather than only /status (:12-17), which reaches the spec of Gateways on the Cilium class too; the comment justifies it by the finalizer, and that justification is honest but the grant is wider than the reason.
The upstream rationale — per-Gateway data planes materialised in arbitrary namespaces — is coherent. That is the trouble: the feature is what forces the grant, so this is not something a values override can fix.
On precedent, and I want to be fair about it: this is not the first component in the tree from your personal namespace, and the pinning language here is verbatim what packages/system/kuberture/values.yaml already says. That precedent is real and I am not reopening it. But it covers supply-chain discipline, not authority — neither kuberture nor ouroboros holds cluster-wide Secret read and cluster-wide Deployment write. Extending the precedent from "a pinned third-party controller" to "a pinned third-party controller with cluster-admin-equivalent reach, whose images are pulled at runtime from a personal ghcr namespace and are not mirrored under ghcr.io/cozystack" is a different decision, and for a project on the CNCF track with a multi-tenancy story it belongs to the maintainers rather than to a code review. My own position is that it should not land in this shape, and that the narrowing has to happen upstream — scoping the Deployment and Secret access by namespace or label, or at minimum letting the chart render a namespaced Role for the single-tunnel deployment this package actually uses.
Blocking: an operator cannot switch it off
helm.sh/resource-policy: keep is stamped on the Package CR by packages/core/platform/templates/_helpers.tpl:16, the helper this package goes through. So removing the name from bundles.enabledPackages stops rendering the Package and deletes nothing: the Package, the HelmRelease, both Deployments, the ClusterRole and its binding all stay. A cluster whose configuration reads "disabled" is still running a controller with everything described above. bundles.disabledPackages does not help either, because that is a veto on rendering and keep blocks deletion.
Deleting the Package by hand while the name is still listed is worse than the body suggests: keep blocks deletion, not creation, so the next platform upgrade renders it back — carrying only controller.clusterDomain, because the operator's hand-set gatewayClassConfig.tunnelID died with the deleted object. The chart then hits its required and that HelmRelease fails permanently, and since cluster readiness sweeps every HelmRelease, the whole cluster reads not-ready. The doc gets the recovery order right, but prose is the only thing standing between an operator and that state.
This one has an in-repo answer already, which is why I am asking rather than just noting it. packages/core/platform/templates/bundles/system.yaml:203-205 handles exactly this hazard for ouroboros: a lookup for the live Package plus a fail carrying the recovery steps, released by an explicit acknowledgement flag in values. The pattern exists, it was written for this precise interaction with resource-policy: keep, and this package has a far larger surface than ouroboros does. Please reuse it.
The one live run does not cover the supported configuration
The manual verification is described honestly and I am glad it was done. But it ran against a cluster with Gateway API CRDs at v1.5.1, and this package's own requirement is a 1.6.x bundle — the GatewayClass duly came up with a permanent SupportedVersion=False beside Accepted=True, and, as the body itself explains, any field the controller writes that only the newer bundle knows is pruned on write with nothing logged. So the run tells us the package installs and passes traffic on a base it declares unsupported. It does not tell us it behaves correctly on a supported one.
#3872 merged on 2026-09-04 and origin/main now carries the 1.6.1 bundle. This branch does not — its base is from 2026-09-02 and the merge commit is not an ancestor of the head. Rebase, then re-run the same end-to-end check on the 1.6.x bundle and say in the body that the GatewayClass came up without SupportedVersion=False. That is the run that discharges the sequencing note.
Notes, not blocking
The proxy Deployment sets neither serviceAccountName nor automountServiceAccountToken, so the pod terminating every request arriving from the Cloudflare edge runs as the namespace default ServiceAccount with its token mounted — and the chart exposes no value for either field, so the wrapper cannot correct it. It is bounded in practice because default holds no RBAC there, and the docs disclose it, but it is the wrong default for the most exposed pod in the package and it is a one-line fix upstream.
The controller is a single replica with leader election off and no PodDisruptionBudget, so configuration pushes pause across a restart or a node drain. The data plane keeps serving, so the impact is bounded. Worth noting that the ClusterRole grants full leases access for the leader election that is switched off.
Nothing enforces the tlsPassthroughServices: [] requirement for a tunnel-backed tenant Gateway. packages/extra/gateway/templates/tenantgateway.yaml passes both gatewayClassName and the passthrough list straight through with no cross-check, and the default list is non-empty, so an operator who switches a tenant to this class and forgets gets a TenantGateway permanently not-Ready and a blocked tenant gateway release, with the documentation as the only warning. A fail in that chart when an edge-terminated class meets a non-empty passthrough list would cost a few lines and turn a puzzle into a message.
Things I checked and found correct, so they need no further attention: all four pins are tag-or-manifest digests and the Makefile refuses a pull whose Chart.yaml version disagrees with CHART_VERSION; the renovate custom manager and its grouping rule genuinely cover all four; the vendored tree is pristine, with every Cozystack-specific value expressed as an outer override and no patches/ needed; the required guard on gatewayClassConfig.tunnelID is pinned by a failedTemplate assertion; the dig guard for networking.clusterDomain pins all three nil shapes, and asserts the controller map survives, which is the right assertion because dropping a rendered key would delete it from the live Package and take the operator's sibling tunnelID with it; the topologySpreadConstraints override pins both pod labels its selector depends on; the package declares a test: target so hack/helm-unit-tests.sh actually discovers the suite, which is not automatic here; and the claim about the two admission policies is accurate — the cluster-wide one with failurePolicy: Fail and no namespace selector ships off and stays off, and only the controller-side ownership layer is enabled, with a negative test proving the flags key on the value.
What I would like next
Rebase onto the 1.6.1 bundle and re-run the end-to-end check on it; add the ouroboros-style disable guard; and let us settle the RBAC question as a maintainer decision rather than in this thread. If the answer on RBAC is that the grant is acceptable for an opt-in package, I would still want it written down somewhere durable — a component that can read every Secret in the cluster should not be discoverable only by reading a ClusterRole.
… as an opt-in package Publishes tenant HTTPRoutes/GRPCRoutes through a Cloudflare Tunnel, so a cluster with no public LoadBalancer (behind NAT, on-prem, homelab) can expose services on the Gateway API path. One controller runs cluster-wide in cozy-cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller and owns the platform tunnel; tenants attach a Gateway of class `cloudflare-tunnel` and route hostnames under the apex the existing route-hostname policy already binds them to. The upstream chart is vendored from its OCI registry pinned by manifest digest, and both images are pinned by tag@digest, the same shape as the kuberture package. The wrapper wires one operator-created Secret into both the API-token and connector-token references. Every Gateway of the class shares one tunnel and the proxy routes by hostname alone, and the platform's route-hostname policy neither sees GRPCRoute nor rejects hostname-less routes, so the wrapper turns on the chart's controller-side hostname-ownership layer keyed on namespace.cozystack.io/host for tenant namespaces; the chart's admission layer stays off because it would also police routes bound to the Cilium Gateway there. The chart bakes the cluster domain into its proxy config endpoint and falls back to cluster.local, and subchart values cannot read _cluster.cluster-domain, so the system bundle threads networking.clusterDomain into the Package's component values; the tunnel ID the operator sets on the same Package is a sibling key that server-side apply keeps intact. Opt-in via bundles.enabledPackages: the release cannot become Ready without the credentials Secret and a tunnel ID, so it must never ship by default. CRDs are applied with CreateReplace because the controller adds kinds between minor releases. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Aleksei Sviridkin <[email protected]>
The wrapper suite guards what values.yaml overrides on the vendored chart: the single credentials Secret read by both planes, the cozystack cluster domain in the controller flags, digest-pinned images, the tunnel ID reaching the GatewayClassConfig, the disabled hostname-ownership policy, and a render that fails naming gatewayClassConfig.tunnelID when it is missing. A re-vendor that drops an override fails here instead of on a cluster. The platform suites pin the PackageSource's CreateReplace and its gateway-api-crds dependency, and that the Package is emitted only when listed in bundles.enabledPackages.

Seven fixes upstream, all in the controller's own status and tunnel handling: Gateway status writes that change nothing are skipped, route parent and GatewayClassConfig conditions stop flapping, foreign per-listener conditions survive a reconcile, the tunnel releases its connection observer between bootstrap attempts, and config versions are ordered by snapshot. Chart templates and CRDs are unchanged between the two tags, so the wrapper needs nothing beyond the three digests. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Aleksei Sviridkin <[email protected]>
Covers what the package buys over the Cilium GatewayClass, the Cloudflare-side prerequisites, the single credentials Secret and its key names, the two-step enable path through bundles.enabledPackages and the tunnel ID on the emitted Package, how a Gateway joins the cloudflare-tunnel class, and the limits an operator hits: HTTP and gRPC only, TLS terminated at the edge, the listeners a tenant publishing Gateway cannot bring across, neither shipped external-dns watching Gateway API, the cluster-wide write grant on the controller's ClusterRole, and unmirrored images. Also corrects the package header comment, which described moving a tenant Gateway onto the class as a drop-in. Emptying tlsPassthroughServices is necessary but not sufficient: the remaining port-443 listeners are still rendered mode: Terminate with cert-manager certificateRefs, and the port-443 allowedRoutes.kinds stay HTTPRoute and TLSRoute, so a GRPCRoute cannot attach.

The comment above the retag filter enumerates what promotion drops today, and the two cloudflare-tunnel images were missing from it. They are dropped for the same reason as kuberture: the wrapper overrides only `tag:` and leaves the repository in the vendored chart, so the enumeration emits a host-less "<ver>@sha256:..." that the $REGISTRY prefix match never selects. kuberture was listed under the third-party host bullet, which is not what drops it, so it moves with them. Behaviour is unchanged. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Aleksei Sviridkin <[email protected]>

The vendored chart bakes the cluster domain into the proxy's config endpoint and falls back to cluster.local, which is wrong on a Cozystack default of cozy.local, and subchart values cannot read _cluster. So the system bundle threads networking.clusterDomain into the Package's component values. Read it through the same dig guard the two variant blocks above already use: `networking:` written with nothing under it is YAML null, and dereferencing that would abort the whole platform render rather than skip the domain. Render the enclosing controller map either way: on a release applied client-side, a key this release rendered before and stops rendering is deleted from the live Package, taking the operator's sibling tunnelID with it. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Aleksei Sviridkin <[email protected]>
The chart runs two proxy replicas and sets no affinity or topology spread of its own, so both can be scheduled onto one node. That pod terminates every request arriving from the Cloudflare edge for every hostname on the class, so a single drain or reboot takes them all down at once. ScheduleAnyway rather than DoNotSchedule, so a single-node cluster still gets both replicas. The selector keys on app.kubernetes.io/instance, which the chart fills from the release name set in the PackageSource, so both halves are pinned: the package's own chart test cannot see that coupling because it declares its own release name, and changing releaseName would leave the constraint selecting nothing with every test still green. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Aleksei Sviridkin <[email protected]>
The suite asserted that the hostname-ownership flags reach the container args and nothing more, so a re-vendor that stopped keying them on hostnameOwnershipPolicy.enabled -- renaming the value, flipping its default, emitting the flags unconditionally -- would keep the suite green while the values stopped selecting anything. Render the feature off and assert the flags are gone, and assert the namespace-selector flag is derived from the selector value rather than baked in. An empty selector is not "police nothing": the controller reads a missing selector as "police every namespace" and then fails closed in each one carrying no host label. Say in the guide where that coverage stops. The decision itself cannot be pinned in this repository: it lives in an internal package of the upstream module, which Go will not let another module import, and the controller resolves its Cloudflare account before it evaluates any route, so nothing credential-free reaches a verdict. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Aleksei Sviridkin <[email protected]>
The package pins its vendored chart by version and OCI digest in the Makefile, and the two images that chart runs by tag@digest in the wrapper values. No built-in manager reaches any of them: the chart is vendored rather than fetched, the helm-values manager is off repo-wide, and the wrapper carries the image tag without its repository, so the depName cannot be read off the line. Marker comments supply it. The manager reads the chart and the two images as three separate deps, so group them into one PR: a split bump can land a chart passing a flag the older image does not accept. Renovate rewrites the pins without re-vendoring charts/, so a bump is not whole until someone runs `make update`, and do-not-merge/hold puts a human in front of that.

…running The platform stamps helm.sh/resource-policy: keep on every Package it emits, so dropping this one from enabledPackages, or vetoing it through disabledPackages, deletes nothing. The controller then keeps a cluster-wide Secret read and Deployment write on a cluster whose values say it is off, which nothing reports. Fail the platform render in that state, the way the ouroboros guard does, and name the two ways out. Deleting the Package is itself the release, because the next render's lookup finds nothing, so no acknowledgement flag is needed. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Aleksei Sviridkin <[email protected]>

Neither list is declared by the package: both are an operator's claim about the class, and the platform documents them that way. Correct what the guide said about the route-hostname policy, which now covers GRPCRoute and refuses hostname-less routes in tenant namespaces, and about the proxy ServiceAccount token, which upstream stops mounting in a release newer than the one vendored here.

Verdict
NOT LGTM — not ready to merge this round.
The code blockers I carried are closed, and I want that on the record. The Gateway API bundle skew I raised across three rounds is resolved: the branch is now rebased onto a base carrying the v1.6.1 bundle (#3872 is an ancestor of HEAD), the tree ships bundle-version: v1.6.1, and the controller's 1.6.x requirement is met. The "cannot switch it off" blocker is fixed properly: the new render guard reuses the ouroboros pattern, its enabled/disabled logic is identical to the optional.default helper, and I confirmed its fail path is load-bearing by mutation (forcing the guard off reddens exactly the two fail tests). The vendored chart is byte-identical to upstream at the pinned digest.
What still holds merge, none of it a code defect in the fix itself: the one end-to-end run described in the PR body was on the v1.5.1 CRDs, not the 1.6.x bundle this package now installs against, so re-run it on 1.6.x and refresh the now-stale PR body (it still says "ships v1.5.1" / "must not merge first"); and the RBAC authority this grants (cluster-wide Secret read plus Deployment-create) needs the maintainers' explicit accept-or-narrow decision before it merges. The notes below are improvements, not blockers.

kvaps's threads
- Disable-off: resolved in code, verified.
- RBAC authority: you added the durable disclosure he asked for (the docs now name the cluster-wide Secret read and the Deployment-create escalation). The accept-or-narrow decision itself is still open and belongs to the maintainers.
- The one live run on the supported bundle: still open. The PR body documents a run on the v1.5.1 CRDs and still says "ships v1.5.1" and "must not merge first"; both are stale now that the base carries v1.6.1. Re-run the check on the 1.6.x bundle and refresh the body.
Caveats
- Everything here is static; no cluster was touched. The supported-config end-to-end run is render-blind and only you can produce it.
- The branch is 35 commits behind
origin/main(merge-base 9c9a8c2). CI on the reviewed head (job 110829432435, step "Run unit and controller tests") is red only onTestHealthzReady_ReportsCacheStateintoken-proxy, a module this PR does not touch: an unrelated flake (jwks fetch 500 / TLS handshake on a closed socket), not evidence about this change.

[NIT] Hostname-ownership narrative implies tenants write Gateway API objects; they cannot today
What this PR does
Adds cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller as an opt-in system package (
cozystack.cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controller, enabled throughbundles.enabledPackages). It implements Gateway API on top of a Cloudflare Tunnel: HTTPRoutes and GRPCRoutes get published through the tunnel, so a cluster without a public LoadBalancer (behind NAT, on-prem, homelab) gets an outbound-only publishing path next to the Cilium Gateway. TLS terminates at the Cloudflare edge; the in-cluster proxy embeds the cloudflared transport and does the L7 routing.Shape: one controller in
cozy-cloudflare-tunnel-gateway-controllerowning the platform tunnel. The v3.4.1 chart is vendored from its OCI registry by manifest digest and both images are pinned by tag@digest, same layout assystem/kuberture. Tenants attach a Gateway of classcloudflare-tunnel.Every Gateway of the class shares one tunnel and the proxy routes by hostname alone. The existing
cozystack-route-hostname-policydoes not see GRPCRoute and admits hostname-less routes; behind a tenant-owned Cilium Gateway that is inert, here it is not. So the wrapper turns on the chart's controller-side hostname-ownership layer keyed onnamespace.cozystack.io/hostfor tenant namespaces, and keeps the chart's admission layer off because that one would also police routes bound to the Cilium Gateway in the same namespaces.The chart bakes the cluster domain into its proxy config endpoint and falls back to
cluster.local, and subchart values cannot read_cluster.cluster-domain, so the system bundle threadsnetworking.clusterDomaininto the Package's component values. The tunnel ID the operator sets on the same Package is a sibling key and survives the apply: server-side apply merges the values block per key, a client-side release patches only what it renders.Operator inputs: one Secret (
cloudflare-tunnel-credentialswithapi-tokenandtunnel-token) and the tunnel UUID via the Package's component values. The render fails naminggatewayClassConfig.tunnelIDuntil it is set, so an enabled but unconfigured package cannot go quietly half-installed.upgradeCRDs: CreateReplacebecause the controller adds CRD kinds between minor releases.This package needs a Gateway API bundle at 1.6.x. The controller reads the
gateway.networking.k8s.io/bundle-versionannotation off the installedgatewayclassesCRD and requires an exact major-and-minor match with the bundle it was built against. Cozystack ships v1.5.1 today, so on that base the class comes upAccepted=Truebeside a permanentSupportedVersion=False, and because the Gateway API CRDs are structural, any field the controller writes that only the newer bundle knows is pruned on write with nothing logged anywhere. Nothing gates serving on that condition, so the install looks usable and is not. #3872 bumps the bundle to v1.6.1. This PR is sequenced behind it and must not merge first.Manually verified on a v1.6.0-rc.2 cluster (Talos, k8s 1.36, Gateway API CRDs v1.5.1), both by installing the chart directly and through the platform path (PackageSource, Package with the bundle's component values, operator-generated HelmRelease, tunnel ID patched onto the Package next to them; the first install fails naming the missing tunnel ID and recovers once it is set): controller and proxy come up, the tunnel registers four QUIC connectors, the GatewayClass is
Accepted, a tenantTenantGatewaymoved togatewayClassName: cloudflare-tunnelrenders a Gateway that isAcceptedandProgrammedwith the tunnel CNAME as its address, and an HTTPRoute in that tenant answeredHTTP 200end-to-end through the Cloudflare edge. The ownership layer was probed too: an in-apex HTTPRoute is accepted, a hostname-less HTTPRoute and a GRPCRoute with a foreign hostname getHostnameNotPermitted. Two things from that run, both documented in the packagevalues.yaml: a tunnel-backed tenant Gateway needstlsPassthroughServices: [](the controller marks TLS-passthrough listenersUnsupportedProtocol, and with Helm 4's kstatus wait a never-ReadyTenantGatewayblocks the tenantgatewayrelease), and the GatewayClass reportedSupportedVersion=Falseagainst the v1.5.1 CRDs, which is the bundle requirement above. That run was a one-off against real Cloudflare credentials. No test in this repository reproduces any of it.Three things beyond the package itself. The bundle threads the cluster domain through an unguarded
.Values.networking.clusterDomain, which took the whole platform render down with a nil pointer whennetworking:was written with nothing under it; it now uses the samedigguard the two variant blocks above it already use, with the missing case pinned. The proxy runs two replicas with no affinity in the upstream chart, so the package adds atopologySpreadConstraintsentry and pins both it and the release name its selector depends on. And the package's four version pins are wired into.github/renovate.jsonbehind marker comments, grouped so the chart and its two images move in one PR.The operator guide is
docs/cloudflare-tunnel-gateway.md: when to reach for this class instead of the Cilium one, what has to exist on the Cloudflare side before anything installs, the single credentials Secret with its exact key names, the two-step enable path (bundles.enabledPackages, then the tunnel ID on the Package that step creates), how a Gateway joins the class, and how the hostname-ownership layer behaves for a tenant. It also documents removal, which is asymmetric and worth reading before enabling:helm.sh/resource-policy: keepmeans dropping the name frombundles.enabledPackagesdeletes nothing, so a cluster that reads as disabled still runs a controller holding cluster-wide Secret read and Deployment write; and deleting the Package while the name is still listed does not stick, becausekeepblocks deletion rather than creation and the next platform upgrade renders it back without the operator's tunnel ID. It ends on a limitations section rather than a feature list: HTTP and gRPC only, TLS ending at the edge so the certificate a client sees is Cloudflare's, the passthrough listeners a tenant Gateway has to give up and what stops being published with them, the hostname-less redirect route the ownership layer rejects, Universal SSL reaching only one label below the zone apex, cluster-wide Secret read on the controller's ClusterRole, images that are not mirrored into the Cozystack registry, and the 1.6.x Gateway API bundle the controller requires.One review finding is worth answering here rather than leaving for the next reader to re-derive, because it is plausible and wrong. The claim: the platform renders
controller.clusterDomainintospec.components[].valueswhile the operator addsgatewayClassConfig.tunnelIDto the same map, and since that field is schemaless, server-side apply treats it as atomic, so one owner clobbers the other and the tunnel ID cannot be set persistently. The premise does not hold. The CRD declares that node withx-kubernetes-preserve-unknown-fields: trueand notypeand nox-kubernetes-map-type; kube-openapi's converter turns exactly that shape into the__untyped_deduced_type, whosemap.elementRelationshipisseparablewith a recursive element type. Separable means per-key ownership (only lists underneath are atomic), so a field becomes atomic when the schema asks for it, and this one does not. The client-side path reaches the same result differently: Helm's three-way merge never emits a delete for a key absent from both the old and the new rendered manifest. The two owners hold sibling keys and neither evicts the other.Follow-up someone may want to take, not a defect left behind:
tunnelIDis currently the only operator input here that is not reachable from platform values. Threading it the waycontroller.clusterDomainis threaded would put the whole component values under one owner and remove both the two-step enable and the deliberate first-install failure. That is a change to the platform wiring rather than to this package, so it is not in scope here; the current flow is documented and behaves as designed.Not in this PR: per-tenant dedicated tunnels via
GatewayConfig. Two other gaps this package would otherwise leave are addressed in #3861, open in parallel: selecting the class per tenant, and a TenantGateway mode for classes whose provider terminates TLS upstream, so the platform stops issuing an origin certificate nobody serves. Neither PR depends on the other landing first. All three are follow-ups on the cozystack side. No e2e: the package cannot become Ready without real Cloudflare credentials, same ashetzner-robotlb. That bounds what can be asserted here. The chart suite pins the contract between these values and the vendored chart: the credentials Secret both planes read, the cluster domain, the digest pins, the proxy spread and its selector, and that the ownership flags appear only because these values ask for them and disappear when they do not. The ownership decision itself is not reachable from this repository: it lives in an internal package of the upstream module, which Go will not let another module import, and the controller resolves its Cloudflare account before it evaluates a single route, so no credential-free path reaches a verdict. Upstream pins it against a shared vector table driven through both its enforcement layers.Screenshots
