Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests
    • Improved robustness of leader-election verification with polling-based waits instead of immediate assertions.
    • Enhanced test resilience for single-node clusters with adaptive timeout handling and connection-error recovery.
    • Made machine count transition validation more reliable with dynamic retry logic.

Walkthrough

This PR hardens MachineConfig test reliability by adding SNO-aware transition validation, making machine-count checks resilient to transient connection failures, enabling test fallback to master MCP when worker is unavailable, and improving MOSC leader-election log waiting robustness.

Changes

SNO and Image Mode Test Reliability

Layer / File(s) Summary
SNO Detection Infrastructure and Function Signature Updates
test/extended/machineconfignode.go, test/extended/image_mode_status_reporting.go
Added errors and syscall imports for connection-error classification. Updated ValidateTransitionThroughConditions signature to accept oc *exutil.CLI parameter, enabling SNO cluster detection within transition validation.
SNO-Aware Transition Validation Logic
test/extended/machineconfignode.go
Implemented SNO detection and adjusted timing windows for SNO clusters. Modified transition checks to skip Cordoned/Drained validation for SNO, handle ECONNREFUSED errors as warnings during AppliedFiles and UpdateExecuted phases, and restrict UpdateComplete/Uncordoned checks to non-SNO non-rebootless updates.
Connection-Error Resilience in Machine Count Validation
test/extended/image_mode_status_reporting.go
Reworked validateMCPMachineCountTransitions with dynamic retry count for layered and SNO updates. Changed mcnAndNodeAnnotationMachineCountsMatch to return (countsMatch, isConnErr) and classify connection-refused errors via errors.Is(..., syscall.ECONNREFUSED) to enable retries on transient failures.
Default MCP Fallback Test Support
test/extended/image_mode_status_reporting.go
Added runImageModeMCNTestDefaultMCP helper to run tests against master MCP when worker MCP has no nodes. Updated test cases to branch between custom infra and default master MCP execution. Updated validateMCNTransitions to pass oc context and rebootless flag to transition validation.
Test Fixtures and MOSC Leader-Election Robustness
test/extended-priv/mco_ocb.go, test/extended-priv/testdata/files/machineconfigs/master-extension-mc.yaml
Added master-extension-mc.yaml fixture defining a master-role MachineConfig with usbguard extension. Wrapped ValidateSuccessfulMOSC leader-election log assertion in Eventually block polling for up to 5 minutes instead of immediate assertion.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Handle mOSBuilder.Logs() errors instead of discarding them.

The callback currently ignores the error return (logs, _ := ...), which can hide transient/fatal log-fetch failures and make this assertion flaky.

Proposed fix
-	o.Eventually(func() string {
-		logs, _ := mOSBuilder.Logs()
-		return logs
+	o.Eventually(func() (string, error) {
+		return mOSBuilder.Logs()
 	}, "5m", "10s").Should(o.And(
 		o.MatchRegexp("(?i)"+regexp.QuoteMeta("attempting to acquire leader lease")),
 		o.MatchRegexp("(?i)"+regexp.QuoteMeta("successfully acquired lease"))),
 		"The machine os builder pod is not using the leader election without failures")

As per coding guidelines: **/*.go: “Never ignore error returns”.

Handle IsSNOSafe error and verify SNO retry-budget scope

  • validateMCPMachineCountTransitions discards the error from extpriv.IsSNOSafe(oc) (isSNO, _ := ...), violating the Go security rule “Never ignore error returns”; handle the error explicitly and decide the fallback behavior for loopCount.
  • The SNO loopCount = 10 bump is only reachable inside if layered, so SNO clusters will only get the higher retry budget for layered updates—confirm this is intended and extend the logic to the non-layered path if not.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

UpdateExecuted=True became best-effort for every environment.

The final Expect(conditionMet).To(BeTrue()) is removed unconditionally, so non-SNO and non-connection-error paths can now miss this transition without failing. That weakens the coverage outside the new SNO exception.
