When started by the Flatcar core user, the SDK failed to use UID 500
because inside the SDK there already is the core user from nss-altfiles
with the same ID. This way, the SDK user was continuing with UID 1000
and had permission errors.
Allow to reuse an existing ID for the SDK user. However, this only
works when usermod doesn't find a process that uses this ID, and we had
a race between the SDK entry points called by "docker start" and by
"docker exec". The race is unwanted anyway because we don't want to
execute the commands while setup_board is still running. Solve it by
setting the entrypoint for "docker start" directly to "bash -l" in
"docker create" (this is also what the entry point does as last step:
sudo su -l).
The SDK container has a copy of sdk_entry.sh for standalone use. This
was also used by run_sdk_container which required creating new SDK
container images for changes to take effect.
Use the repository's version from run_sdk_container for fixes to take
effect without requiring new SDK containers.
Instead of printing failed tests like this:
Failed tests: kubeadm.v1.25.0.cilium.base
kubeadm.v1.24.1.cilium.base
Do it like this:
Failed tests:
kubeadm.v1.25.0.cilium.base
kubeadm.v1.24.1.cilium.base
We have set success to true when the test cycle was broken, which was
a hacky way to avoid printing the give up message. But this setting
success to true also meant that the script returned with status 0,
which is wrong.
Add another variable for controlling printing the give up message.
We were running the run_sdk_container script with passing a value of a
variable named version to the script through the -v flag. But nowhere
is the variable defined. This worked under jenkins, because jenkins
job has a version parameter that gets exported into environment under
the same name. But running it manually outside jenkins revealed the
bug.
The script should have been using a vernum variable. Now, the
difference between this variable and the version variable is that
"version" was in form of <channel>-<version>-<build_id>, whereas
"vernum" comes without the channel part. Fortunately,
"run_sdk_container" was stripping the channel part before using this
value, so it makes no difference whether we pass
main-3333.0.0.0-some-id or just 3333.0.0-some-id.
Recently we changed the region from DA (Dallas) to DC (Washington),
because there are more ARM64 servers available. Reflect this change in
the new pipeline too.
