Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to A malformed or unsupported CNPG snapshot could pass restore checks and reach target cleanup. Normal backups use the expected version, so the risk is limited, but rejecting unsupported versions would prevent this path. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Image selection is constrained, and ordinary restores reject incompatible flavors before deleting data. However, compatibility is not enforced across every recovery path, and changing flavor during an active restore can strand recovery after deletion has begun. The external-resource capabilities of the added raster extensions also remain unverified. Retained concerns

mattia-eleuteri NOT LGTM, but only because of the rebase. The flavor itself is worth having: it uses the upstream CloudNativePG image, so there is nothing new to build or mirror, and two separate people have asked for PostGIS.
The branch conflicts with main in api/apps/v1alpha1/postgresql/types.go and the generated postgres-rd manifest, because #3506 added PreloadLibrary next to your Flavor. Keeping both types and running make generate in packages/apps/postgres resolves it.
There is also a conflict git will not show. #4558 added internal/backupcontroller/legacy_password_scrubber_test.go, and at line 96 it calls unmarshalCNPGBackupSnapshot with four return values. This PR changes that function to return the snapshot and an error, so after the merge the package does not compile. Changing the call to if _, err := unmarshalCNPGBackupSnapshot(&b) is enough. With both fixes on a local merge, go test ./internal/backupcontroller/ passes, and so do the 156 postgres unittests and both postgres bats files. Disabling either flavor guard makes its tests fail.
One small thing in the body, since it becomes the merge commit: "running PostGIS in production since today" will read wrong later, so a date would be better.
Tenants migrating spatial data need PostGIS, but the chart always runs the CloudNativePG PostgreSQL image, which does not ship it, and exposes no way to pick another one. CloudNativePG publishes a PostGIS operand image; a closed `flavor` enum selects it without handing tenants a free image field. The flavor pins the same PostgreSQL minor as the default one, on the standard-trixie variant: backups go through the barman-cloud plugin, so the deprecated system variant is not needed. update-versions.sh now derives the postgis map from the minors it picks, and a bats check fails if the two maps drift apart. The default images are built on bullseye and the postgis ones on trixie. Switching a live cluster between them would swap glibc under an initialised data directory and silently break every collatable index, and CNPG would roll it out as a plain image update. The chart therefore refuses a flavor change on an existing Cluster. Co-authored-by: Matthieu <[email protected]> Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Mattia Eleuteri <[email protected]>
The updater used to warn and leave a major out of postgis-versions.yaml
when the registry had no postgis build for its minor yet, while
versions.yaml still advertised it. `flavor: postgis` on that major then
failed to render. Postgis images trail the PostgreSQL ones, so this is a
routine state rather than an edge case: stop before writing either map
and let the next run pick up both once the image is published.
The version check now also compares the majors of the two maps, so a
map edited by hand cannot drop one silently. It is written in POSIX sh:
cozytest.sh sources it into /bin/sh, which is dash on the CI runners and
rejected the ${var//} expansions the first version used.

A recovery replays the source's data directory, so it carries the same risk as switching the image of a live cluster: the postgresql and postgis images are built on different Debian releases, and the glibc change invalidates collatable indexes, while a postgis-to-postgresql move also loses the libraries behind every PostGIS object. The chart only guarded the live cluster, so a fresh release bootstrapped from a backup of the other flavor went through, and the guard's own advice was to restore a backup, which is that very move. The backup-controller now records the source flavor in the snapshot it stores on each Backup and fails a RestoreJob whose target runs another flavor, before the purge deletes the target's Cluster and PVCs. A snapshot without a flavor predates flavors and so comes from a postgresql cluster. For the chart-managed bootstrap, the chart compares against the recovery source's Cluster while it still exists. Both paths, and the live-cluster guard, point a flavor change to a logical dump. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Mattia Eleuteri <[email protected]>

The chart refuses a flavor change on an existing Cluster, but the Postgres app keeps the refused value. A BackupJob taken after such a change recorded the app's flavor, not the one the data directory was written by, so a RestoreJob would accept a target of the wrong image family and refuse the right one. The driver already reads the live Cluster to keep its barman serverName; it now takes the flavor from that Cluster's imageName the same way the chart's flavor guard compares images.

mattia-eleuteri LGTM. Both conflicts from my last review are fixed. The branch merges cleanly with main, the merged types keep PreloadLibrary next to Flavor, and make generate in packages/apps/postgres leaves no diff. The scrubber test now uses the two-value form of unmarshalCNPGBackupSnapshot, so the package compiles.
The tests pass on a local merge with current main: go test ./internal/backupcontroller/..., the 159 postgres unittests and the postgis versions bats. Each guard is pinned. If I disable the flavor check in reconcileCNPGRestore, hardcode the recorded flavor to postgresql, or stop cnpgImageFlavor from cutting the digest, a test fails. Disabling either branch of the chart's flavor guard fails tests too.
Taking the flavor from the live Cluster instead of refusing the backup is the better option. A refused backup would stop scheduled backups of a cluster whose data is fine.
A small thing in the body, since it becomes the merge commit. The testing section still says 145/145 with 6 new cases, and that removing the guard fails exactly two. The head has 10 cases in flavor_test.yaml and 156 in total, and three of them cover the live-cluster guard. Not blocking.

…mputeplane pool, fix the backupcontroller build (#4768) ## What this PR does Makes the backupcontroller test package compile again on main. #4587 added a flavor argument to `createCNPGBackupArtifact` and `marshalCNPGBackupSnapshot`, and #4669, whose CI ran before that, added two test calls with the old argument lists. Both PRs were green on their own, and together they break `go test ./internal/backupcontroller/`. The two calls now pass the same default flavor as the other tests in the file. The second commit fixes an e2e suite that fails the required E2E check here. It is the `computeplane` suite from #4713, and its worker pool was one node with a single vCPU. After the kubelet reservations that node has 900m of CPU to allocate. The tenant addons (cilium, coredns, csi, ingress-nginx, metrics-server, cert-manager) request exactly 900m between them. If cert-manager's startupapicheck hook pod is created last, it can't be scheduled and the install times out after 10m. The reinstall after remediation runs into the same full node. Whether that pod comes last depends on install order, so the suite passed on #4713 and failed here. The pool now has two workers with one vCPU each, the same shape the kubernetes suites use. One vCPU per worker stays on purpose, because of #3513. Two workers exposed a deadlock in the tenant cluster-autoscaler. The suite's pool is created at zero replicas and then gets a min size of 2, which CAPI does not apply to the live replica count on upgrade (#4786). The autoscaler's scale-up for a pending pod asks for one node, and the clusterapi provider refuses it because one is under the min size, although it is an increase. That refusal backs the group off, and the min-size enforcement skips groups in backoff, so the pool never leaves zero. Upstream had the same report in kubernetes/autoscaler#4942, closed as stale, and it is now tracked in kubernetes/autoscaler#10400. Our autoscaler image already patches the mirror case for max size, and the patch now refuses only a decrease below the min size. `go vet` and `go test ./internal/backupcontroller/...` pass, and so do the bats pins for the computeplane suite. The autoscaler patch adds a test for each direction, and the clusterapi package tests pass with it applied to 1.32.0. ### Screenshots Not a UI change. ### Downstream repositories - [x] No downstream repository is affected by this change - [ ] [cozystack/website](https://github.com/cozystack/website) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ansible-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/ansible-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ccp](https://github.com/cozystack/ccp) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/talm](https://github.com/cozystack/talm) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozyhr](https://github.com/cozystack/cozyhr) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozy-proxy](https://github.com/cozystack/cozy-proxy) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server](https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/external-apps-example](https://github.com/cozystack/external-apps-example) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/examples](https://github.com/cozystack/examples) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/community](https://github.com/cozystack/community) - follow-up: ### Release note ```release-note NONE ``` <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Bug Fixes** * Improved cluster autoscaling for worker groups outside configured size limits: groups below their minimum can scale up toward it, and nodes can be removed when a group exceeds its maximum.

The default images are built on Debian bullseye (glibc 2.31) and the postgis ones on trixie (glibc 2.41): CNPG would roll the swap out as a plain image update, under an initialised data directory, which silently invalidates every index on collatable text, and the postgis-to-postgresql direction also drops the libraries behind every PostGIS object.
