Kubernetes leader election 源码分析

0. 前言

Kubernetes:kube-scheduler 源码分析介绍了 kube-scheduler 调度 Pod 的逻辑。文中有一点未提的是，在 Kubernetes 集群中，kube-scheduler 组件是多副本，单实例运行。仅有一个副本作为 leader 运行，当发生故障时，其它副本会抢占为 leader 继续运行。这种机制通过 leader election 实现，本文将从源码角度分析 leader election 选举的实现。并且，在此基础上，在回头看 kube-scheduler 是怎么结合 leader elction 实现多副本，单实例运行的。

1. leader election

leader election 通过多个副本抢占资源锁的方式实现单实例运行。在 Kubernetes 中，[Configmap|Lease|Endpoint] 可以作为资源锁的实现。

1.1 示例

直接看 leader election 代码容易晕，这里从示例入手，看 leader election 是怎么运行的。

// lease.go
/*
package main

func buildConfig(kubeconfig string) (*rest.Config, error) {
	...
}

func main() {
	klog.InitFlags(nil)
	var kubeconfig string
	var leaseLockName string
	var leaseLockNamespace string
	var id string

	flag.StringVar(&kubeconfig, "kubeconfig", "", "absolute path to the kubeconfig file")
	flag.StringVar(&id, "id", uuid.New().String(), "the holder identity name")
	flag.StringVar(&leaseLockName, "lease-lock-name", "kube-scheduler", "the lease lock resource name")
	flag.StringVar(&leaseLockNamespace, "lease-lock-namespace", "kube-system", "the lease lock resource namespace")
	flag.Parse()

	if leaseLockName == "" {
		klog.Fatal("unable to get lease lock resource name (missing lease-lock-name flag).")
	}
	if leaseLockNamespace == "" {
		klog.Fatal("unable to get lease lock resource namespace (missing lease-lock-namespace flag).")
	}

	config, err := buildConfig(kubeconfig)
	if err != nil {
		klog.Fatal(err)
	}
	client := clientset.NewForConfigOrDie(config)

	run := func(ctx context.Context) {
		klog.Info("Controller loop...")
	}

	ctx, cancel := context.WithCancel(context.Background())
	defer cancel()

	ch := make(chan os.Signal, 1)
	signal.Notify(ch, os.Interrupt, syscall.SIGTERM)
	go func() {
		<-ch
		klog.Info("Received termination, signaling shutdown")
		cancel()
	}()

	lock := &resourcelock.LeaseLock{
		LeaseMeta: metav1.ObjectMeta{
			Name:      leaseLockName,
			Namespace: leaseLockNamespace,
		},
		Client: client.CoordinationV1(),
		LockConfig: resourcelock.ResourceLockConfig{
			Identity: id,
		},
	}

	leaderelection.RunOrDie(ctx, leaderelection.LeaderElectionConfig{
		Lock: lock,
		ReleaseOnCancel: true,
		LeaseDuration:   60 * time.Second,
		RenewDeadline:   15 * time.Second,
		RetryPeriod:     5 * time.Second,
		Callbacks: leaderelection.LeaderCallbacks{
			OnStartedLeading: func(ctx context.Context) {
				// we're notified when we start - this is where you would
				// usually put your code
				run(ctx)
			},
			OnStoppedLeading: func() {
				// we can do cleanup here
				klog.Infof("leader lost: %s", id)
				os.Exit(0)
			},
			OnNewLeader: func(identity string) {
				// we're notified when new leader elected
				if identity == id {
					// I just got the lock
					return
				}
				klog.Infof("new leader elected: %s", identity)
			},
		},
	})
}

详细代码戳这里

运行 id 为 1 的进程抢占 lease：

# go run lease.go --kubeconfig=/root/.kube/config -id=1 -lease-lock-name=example -lease-lock-namespace=default 
I0222 09:44:40.389093 4054932 leaderelection.go:250] attempting to acquire leader lease default/example...
I0222 09:44:40.400607 4054932 leaderelection.go:260] successfully acquired lease default/example
I0222 09:44:40.402998 4054932 lease.go:87] Controller loop...

可以看到，id 为 1 的进程（简称进程 1）抢占到 lease，接着进入进程的运行逻辑。

继续运行 id 为 2 的进程（简称进程 2）抢占 lease：

# go run lease.go --kubeconfig=/root/.kube/config -id=2 -lease-lock-name=example -lease-lock-namespace=default
I0222 10:26:53.162990 4070458 leaderelection.go:250] attempting to acquire leader lease default/example...
I0222 10:26:53.170046 4070458 lease.go:151] new leader elected: 1

进程 2 抢占不到 lease，因为此时进程 1 是 leader，且 lease 未被释放或者过期。

kill 掉进程 1（注：此 id 不是进程的 PID），查看进程 2 能否抢占到 lease：

# go run lease.go --kubeconfig=/root/.kube/config -id=2 -lease-lock-name=example -lease-lock-namespace=default
I0222 10:26:53.162990 4070458 leaderelection.go:250] attempting to acquire leader lease default/example...
I0222 10:26:53.170046 4070458 lease.go:151] new leader elected: 1
I0222 10:31:54.704714 4070458 leaderelection.go:260] successfully acquired lease default/example
I0222 10:31:54.704931 4070458 lease.go:87] Controller loop...

可以看到，进程 2 成功抢占 lease。

1.2 源码分析

1.2.1 lease 资源

lease 作为 leader election 的资源锁存在，多副本抢占 lease 实际是对 lease 进行 [Get|Create|Update] 操作的过程。我们看 lease 在 Kubernetes 的资源表示：

# kubectl describe lease example -n default
Name:         example
Namespace:    default
Labels:       <none>
Annotations:  <none>
API Version:  coordination.k8s.io/v1
Kind:         Lease
Metadata:
  ...
Spec:
  Acquire Time:            2024-02-22T08:31:54.696415Z
  Holder Identity:         2
  Lease Duration Seconds:  60
  Lease Transitions:       5
  Renew Time:              2024-02-22T08:51:47.060020Z
Events:                    <none>

在 Spec 域中有五个字段，分别介绍如下：

Acquire Time: 首次获取 lease 的时间。
Holder Identity: 当前持有 lease 的用户身份。
Lease Duration Seconds: lease 过期时间。
Lease Transitions: lease 被多少 Holder 持有过。
Renew Time: Holder 刷新 lease 的时间。lease 的持有者需要 renew lease，否则其它副本将抢占过期的 lease。

多副本抢占 lease 的信息将被记录到这几个字段中。lease 存储在 etcd 中，通过 Raft 算法实现 lease 资源的唯一性和原子性，以保证多副本仅可抢占唯一的 lease。

1.2.2 抢占状态图

多副本抢占 lease 的状态图如下，结合状态图看源码会更加清晰。

1.2.3 创建 lease

我们从创建 lease 开始分析。

首先，删掉 lease 资源。

# kubectl get lease
NAME      HOLDER   AGE
example   2        23h
# kubectl delete lease example
lease.coordination.k8s.io "example" deleted

然后，调式模式下运行 lease.go，进入 leaderelection.RunOrDie 查看函数做了什么。

// k8s.io/client-go/tools/leaderelection/leaderelection.go
func RunOrDie(ctx context.Context, lec LeaderElectionConfig) {
	// 创建 leader elector 实例 le
	le, err := NewLeaderElector(lec)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	...

	// 运行 leader elector 实例
	le.Run(ctx)
}

进入 LeaderElector.Run：

// k8s.io/client-go/tools/leaderelection/leaderelection.go
func (le *LeaderElector) Run(ctx context.Context) {
	...

	if !le.acquire(ctx) {
		return // ctx signalled done
	}
	
	...

	le.renew(ctx)
}

LeaderElector.Run 中有两个重要的函数 LeaderElector.acquire 和 LeaderElector.renew。LeaderElector.acquire 负责获取（抢占）锁资源。LeaderElector.renew 负责更新锁资源，从而一直持有锁。

进入 LeaderElector.acquire：

// k8s.io/client-go/tools/leaderelection/leaderelection.go
func (le *LeaderElector) acquire(ctx context.Context) bool {
	...
	succeeded := false
	desc := le.config.Lock.Describe()
	klog.Infof("attempting to acquire leader lease %v...", desc)

	wait.JitterUntil(func() {
		// 重点是这里，tryAcquireOrRenew 负责获取锁，或者更新已经获取锁的信息
		succeeded = le.tryAcquireOrRenew(ctx)
		le.maybeReportTransition()
		if !succeeded {
			klog.V(4).Infof("failed to acquire lease %v", desc)
			return
		}
		le.config.Lock.RecordEvent("became leader")
		le.metrics.leaderOn(le.config.Name)
		klog.Infof("successfully acquired lease %v", desc)
		cancel()
	}, le.config.RetryPeriod, JitterFactor, true, ctx.Done())
	return succeeded
}

LeaderElector.acquire 函数的重点是 LeaderElector.tryAcquireOrRenew：

// k8s.io/client-go/tools/leaderelection/leaderelection.go
func (le *LeaderElector) tryAcquireOrRenew(ctx context.Context) bool {
	now := metav1.NewTime(le.clock.Now())
	leaderElectionRecord := rl.LeaderElectionRecord{
		HolderIdentity:       le.config.Lock.Identity(),
		LeaseDurationSeconds: int(le.config.LeaseDuration / time.Second),
		RenewTime:            now,
		AcquireTime:          now,
	}

	// 1. obtain or create the ElectionRecord
	oldLeaderElectionRecord, oldLeaderElectionRawRecord, err := le.config.Lock.Get(ctx)
	if err != nil {
		if !errors.IsNotFound(err) {
			klog.Errorf("error retrieving resource lock %v: %v", le.config.Lock.Describe(), err)
			return false
		}
		if err = le.config.Lock.Create(ctx, leaderElectionRecord); err != nil {
			klog.Errorf("error initially creating leader election record: %v", err)
			return false
		}

		le.setObservedRecord(&leaderElectionRecord)

		return true
	}

	...
	return true
}

LeaderElector.tryAcquireOrRenew 实现的就是状态转移图中的逻辑，这里我们仅关注创建锁这一流程。

首先，LeaderElector.config.Lock.Get 通过 client-go 获取 etcd 中锁的信息。

// k8s.io/client-go/tools/leaderelection/resourcelock/leaselock.go
func (ll *LeaseLock) Get(ctx context.Context) (*LeaderElectionRecord, []byte, error) {
	// 获取锁（lease）
	lease, err := ll.Client.Leases(ll.LeaseMeta.Namespace).Get(ctx, ll.LeaseMeta.Name, metav1.GetOptions{})
	if err != nil {
		return nil, nil, err
	}

	...
	return record, recordByte, nil
}

没有找到锁，进入 LeaderElector.config.Lock.Create 创建锁。

// k8s.io/client-go/tools/leaderelection/resourcelock/leaselock.go
func (ll *LeaseLock) Create(ctx context.Context, ler LeaderElectionRecord) error {
	var err error
	ll.lease, err = ll.Client.Leases(ll.LeaseMeta.Namespace).Create(ctx, &coordinationv1.Lease{
		ObjectMeta: metav1.ObjectMeta{
			Name:      ll.LeaseMeta.Name,
			Namespace: ll.LeaseMeta.Namespace,
		},
		Spec: LeaderElectionRecordToLeaseSpec(&ler),
	}, metav1.CreateOptions{})
	return err
}

查看创建锁的信息：

# kubectl describe lease example -n default
Name:         example
Namespace:    default
Labels:       <none>
Annotations:  <none>
API Version:  coordination.k8s.io/v1
Kind:         Lease
Metadata:
  ...
Spec:
  Acquire Time:            2024-02-23T05:42:07.781552Z
  Holder Identity:         1
  Lease Duration Seconds:  60
  Lease Transitions:       0
  Renew Time:              2024-02-23T05:42:07.781552Z

1.2.4 更新 lease

接着看状态转移图中的更新 lease 的流程，场景是 lease 资源已存在并过期，holder 是 id 为 1 的进程。

进入 LeaderElector.tryAcquireOrRenew：

func (le *LeaderElector) tryAcquireOrRenew(ctx context.Context) bool {
	...
	// 1. obtain or create the ElectionRecord
	oldLeaderElectionRecord, oldLeaderElectionRawRecord, err := le.config.Lock.Get(ctx)
	if err != nil {
		...
	}

	// 2. Record obtained, check the Identity & Time
	if !bytes.Equal(le.observedRawRecord, oldLeaderElectionRawRecord) {
		le.setObservedRecord(oldLeaderElectionRecord)

		le.observedRawRecord = oldLeaderElectionRawRecord
	}
	if len(oldLeaderElectionRecord.HolderIdentity) > 0 &&
		le.observedTime.Add(time.Second*time.Duration(oldLeaderElectionRecord.LeaseDurationSeconds)).After(now.Time) &&
		!le.IsLeader() {
		klog.V(4).Infof("lock is held by %v and has not yet expired", oldLeaderElectionRecord.HolderIdentity)
		return false
	}

	// 3. We're going to try to update. The leaderElectionRecord is set to it's default
	// here. Let's correct it before updating.
	if le.IsLeader() {
		leaderElectionRecord.AcquireTime = oldLeaderElectionRecord.AcquireTime
		leaderElectionRecord.LeaderTransitions = oldLeaderElectionRecord.LeaderTransitions
	} else {
		leaderElectionRecord.LeaderTransitions = oldLeaderElectionRecord.LeaderTransitions + 1
	}

	// update the lock itself
	if err = le.config.Lock.Update(ctx, leaderElectionRecord); err != nil {
		klog.Errorf("Failed to update lock: %v", err)
		return false
	}
}

在 LeaderElector.tryAcquireOrRenew 中获取锁，记录锁信息，比较锁 holder 是否是当前请求的 holder。如果是，记录锁的 AcquireTime 和 LeaderTransitions。最后，进入 LeaderElector.config.Lock.Update 更新锁：

func (ll *LeaseLock) Update(ctx context.Context, ler LeaderElectionRecord) error {
	...

	lease, err := ll.Client.Leases(ll.LeaseMeta.Namespace).Update(ctx, ll.lease, metav1.UpdateOptions{})
	if err != nil {
		return err
	}

	ll.lease = lease
	return nil
}

查看更新的 lease 信息：

# kubectl describe lease example -n default
Name:         example
Namespace:    default
Labels:       <none>
Annotations:  <none>
API Version:  coordination.k8s.io/v1
Kind:         Lease
Metadata:
  ...
Spec:
  Acquire Time:            2024-02-23T05:42:07.781552Z
  Holder Identity:         1
  Lease Duration Seconds:  60
  Lease Transitions:       0
  Renew Time:              2024-02-23T06:00:52.802923Z

可以看到，holder 更新了 Renew Time，并且这里的 Lease Transitions 未更新。

1.2.5 renew lease

当 holder 拿到 lease 后需要 renew lease，以一直持有 lease。renew 是在获取锁之后，实现如下：

func (le *LeaderElector) Run(ctx context.Context) {
	...

	if !le.acquire(ctx) {
		return // ctx signalled done
	}

	...
	le.renew(ctx)
}

func (le *LeaderElector) renew(ctx context.Context) {
	...
	wait.Until(func() {
		...
		err := wait.PollImmediateUntil(le.config.RetryPeriod, func() (bool, error) {
			// 获取并且 renew lease
			return le.tryAcquireOrRenew(timeoutCtx), nil
		}, timeoutCtx.Done())

		le.maybeReportTransition()
		desc := le.config.Lock.Describe()
		if err == nil {
			klog.V(5).Infof("successfully renewed lease %v", desc)
			return
		}
		le.metrics.leaderOff(le.config.Name)
		klog.Infof("failed to renew lease %v: %v", desc, err)
		cancel()
	}, le.config.RetryPeriod, ctx.Done())

	// if we hold the lease, give it up
	if le.config.ReleaseOnCancel {
		le.release()
	}
}

renew lease 也是通过 LeaderElector.tryAcquireOrRenew 更新 lease 信息实现的，这里就不多赘述了。

2. kube-scheduler 和 leader election

kube-scheduler 中调度和 leader election 结合的部分在 kube-schduler 的 Run 函数：

func Run(ctx context.Context, cc *schedulerserverconfig.CompletedConfig, sched *scheduler.Scheduler) error {
	...
	// If leader election is enabled, runCommand via LeaderElector until done and exit.
	// 配置 leader election
	if cc.LeaderElection != nil {
		cc.LeaderElection.Callbacks = leaderelection.LeaderCallbacks{
			// OnStartedLeading 回调函数，当抢占到 lease 时回调
			OnStartedLeading: func(ctx context.Context) {
				...
				// 作为 leader 运行调度器的调度逻辑
				sched.Run(ctx)
			},
			OnStoppedLeading: func() {
				...
				}
			},
		}

		leaderElector, err := leaderelection.NewLeaderElector(*cc.LeaderElection)
		if err != nil {
			return fmt.Errorf("couldn't create leader elector: %v", err)
		}

		// 运行 leader election 抢占 lease
		leaderElector.Run(ctx)

		return fmt.Errorf("lost lease")
	}

	// Leader election is disabled, so runCommand inline until done.
	close(waitingForLeader)
	sched.Run(ctx)
	return fmt.Errorf("finished without leader elect")
}

3. 小结

本文从源码角度分析 leader election 的实现，并且介绍了 leader election 和 kube-scheduler 结合实现是怎么实现多副本，单实例运行的。
