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.

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. Scale-down requests below the minimum remain restricted.
  • Tests
    • Updated backup and restore test calls with PostgreSQL and empty flavor values.
    • Updated ComputePlane checks for a two-worker pool and clarified cert-manager installation timing expectations.

Two tests that came with the PostgreSQL major-version check call
createCNPGBackupArtifact and marshalCNPGBackupSnapshot with the
argument lists from before the flavor parameter was added, so the
backupcontroller test package does not compile on main. Both calls
take the default flavor the other tests in the file pass.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Backup controller tests now pass flavor arguments to helper functions. The ComputePlane end-to-end test configures and checks a two-worker pool. Cluster-autoscaler size handling permits requests above the maximum and permits growth when a group is below its minimum.

Changes

Backup controller test updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Pass flavor arguments
internal/backupcontroller/cnpgstrategy_controller_test.go
The backup-artifact test passes "postgresql" to createCNPGBackupArtifact. The restore test passes an empty flavor to marshalCNPGBackupSnapshot.

ComputePlane E2E configuration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configure worker pool and addon waits
hack/e2e-chainsaw/computeplane/chainsaw-test.yaml
The pool uses minReplicas: 2 and maxReplicas: 2, and the check expects two minimum replicas. Comments describe the CPU constraint for cert-manager’s startupapicheck Job and cert-manager’s wait on tenant Cilium.

Cluster-autoscaler sizing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Adjust size boundary handling
packages/apps/kubernetes/images/cluster-autoscaler/fix-downscale.diff
SetSize no longer rejects requests above maxSize. It rejects a request below minSize only when it decreases the current replica count. Tests cover deletion above the maximum, growth below the minimum, and rejected decreases below the minimum.

@lexfrei Aleksei Sviridkin (lexfrei) changed the title test(backups): pass the flavor in the major-version test calls test(backups, e2e): fix the backupcontroller build and give the computeplane pool room for its addons Oct 6, 2026
A single-vCPU worker has 900m to allocate after the kubelet
reservations, and the tenant addons' CPU requests use all of it. When
cert-manager's startupapicheck hook pod is the last one created it
stays Pending, the install times out, and the reinstall after
remediation runs into the same full node. Whether it is last depends
on install ordering, so the suite passed or failed on the race.

Two workers match the kubernetes suites' pool and leave room for the
hook pod.

… min

The clusterapi provider refuses any SetSize under the group's min size,
including an increase. A pool whose min size is raised while it stands
at fewer replicas then deadlocks: the scale-up for pending pods asks for
fewer nodes than the min, is refused, and puts the group in backoff,
and the min-size enforcement skips groups in backoff. The group stays
where it is for good.

Refuse only a decrease below min size. The guard it keeps is the one
DecreaseTargetSize relies on, and DeleteNodes checks min size itself.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Keep the maximum-size check for increases.

nodegroup.IncreaseSize passes its requested size directly to SetSize. With the maximum check removed, a group at 3 replicas with maxSize 10 now accepts an increase of 8 and requests 11 replicas. The deleted test previously rejected this request. Keep the new below-minimum growth behavior, but reject requests above maxSize when they increase the current replica count. This still permits a decrease from 4 to 3 when maxSize is 2. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

## What this PR does

This continues #4168 by @txmazing, which has been idle since 2026-09-10.
The first commit is the work from #4168 squashed into one, with
@txmazing as author. The other two commits constrain the new values and
complete the documentation.

Five changes to the managed OpenBAO app (`packages/apps/openbao`).

1. **Optional static-key auto-unseal** (#2787, #2483). `seal.type` is
`shamir`, the unchanged default, or `static`. With `static` the chart
mounts the Secret named in `seal.secretName` through the upstream
chart's `server.extraVolumes` and adds OpenBAO's `seal "static"` stanza
to the standalone and the Raft config, so the pods unseal themselves
after a restart. `seal.previousSecretName` and `seal.previousKeyId`
carry the n-1 key during a rotation. The chart never generates the key.
A cluster administrator creates the Secret in the tenant namespace,
because the `cozy:tenant:*` roles grant nothing on Secrets. A way for
tenants to supply secrets by reference is proposed separately in
cozystack/community#82.
2. **No silent seal change.** The template reads the seal in use from
the `<release>-config` ConfigMap and refuses a different `seal.type`
unless `seal.allowMigration: true` acknowledges a migration. Going from
`static` back to `shamir` is refused, because the chart cannot render
the disabled stanza that direction needs.
3. **Apiserver egress label** (#2793). The server pods carry
`policy.cozystack.io/allow-to-apiserver: "true"`, so
`service_registration "kubernetes"` reaches the API server and HA pods
no longer hang at start.
4. **Constrained values.** The upstream chart passes the server config
through `tpl`, and its start script replaces upper case placeholders
such as `HOSTNAME` in it. A key identifier with template delimiters
would run as a template inside helm-controller, which runs as
cluster-admin, so `seal.keyId` and `seal.previousKeyId` take lowercase
alphanumerics, hyphens, dots and underscores. The Secret names become
pod volume names `userconfig-<name>`, so they take DNS labels of at most
52 characters. A previous Secret or key identifier equal to the current
one fails at render. The apps API only defaults against the schema, and
Helm enforces these patterns at install and upgrade.
5. **README.** The trade-off of `static`, the key Secret, the rotation
with the pod replacement that the `OnDelete` strategy requires, the
migration from Shamir step by step after the OpenBAO guide, and the
one-time pod replacement after an upgrade so that existing pods get the
label.

### Validation

- `helm unittest .` in `packages/apps/openbao` passes 28 of 28 with
helm-unittest 1.1.2, the version CI pins, and with 1.2.1.
- Dropping the key identifier patterns, moving the Secret name limit to
51 or 53, or removing either equality guard turns the suite red each
time.
- Rendering this chart and then the vendored `openbao` chart with a
template in `seal.keyId` now stops at the schema. Without the pattern
the same two-stage render executed it, `lookup` included.
- With default values, standalone and with `replicas: 3`, `helm
template` renders the same as `main` apart from the six-line
`extraLabels` block.
- `make generate` in the package with cozyvalues-gen v1.7.0 and at the
repository root with Go 1.27.1 leaves the tree unchanged. `make
unit-tests` passes apart from seven BATS tests that fail the same way on
a clean `main` under macOS, most of them because macOS ships no
`timeout`. In `make test-controllers` only `internal/backupcontroller`
fails, because its tests do not build on current `main` either, which
#4768 fixes. `hack/check-commit-trailers.sh` passes and `cmd/api-gate`
reports no sizeable API change.
- Nothing here was run on a cluster. #4168 reports a Cozystack v1.6.3
cluster where a `replicas: 1` instance with `seal.type: static` came
back `Sealed false` after `kubectl delete pod`.

TLS between pods and an init or bootstrap job are not covered. Both are
on the #2787 list and independent of this change.

### Screenshots

No dashboard code change. The application form gains the `seal` group
from the regenerated `openAPISchema` and `keysOrder`.

### Downstream repositories

Walked the trigger map against the diff. The new `seal` field in
`packages/apps/openbao/values.schema.json` reaches the hand-written
`cozystack_openbao` resource of the Terraform provider. That is tracked
in cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack#44, which also needs
`allowMigration` and the value constraints. The website reference page
is generated from this `README.md` for the apps listed in its
`Makefile`, and `openbao` is in `APPS`, so the page follows the next
stable tag without a follow-up. The website pages that mention the
apiserver label describe it in general terms and carry no OpenBAO
workaround. There is no `hack/` change, no platform values change, no
variant and no change to ApplicationDefinition semantics.

### Release note

```release-note
feat(openbao): the OpenBAO app can auto-unseal with OpenBAO's static-key seal (`seal.type: static`) from a Secret that a cluster administrator creates in the tenant namespace, with n-1 rotation through `seal.previousSecretName` and `seal.previousKeyId`. Shamir stays the default, and changing the seal of an existing instance needs `seal.allowMigration`. Server pods now carry `policy.cozystack.io/allow-to-apiserver: "true"`, so HA instances no longer hang at start behind the apiserver egress policy.
```

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* OpenBAO supports static sealing with keys stored in an existing
Secret; Shamir sealing remains the default.
* Configure current and previous keys to support key rotation in
standalone and high-availability deployments. Keep the previous key
until stored keys have been re-wrapped.
* Seal-type changes are validated. Shamir-to-static migration requires
explicit acknowledgement; static-to-Shamir migration is not supported.
* Static-seal settings validate required key details and Secret names.
Server pods receive a label needed by the configured API-server egress
policy.
* **Documentation**
* Added guidance for configuring static sealing, managing Secrets,
rotating keys, and migrating seal types.
