Real-world writeRelabelConfigs regex patterns listing dozens of metric
names commonly reach 2000-5000+ bytes. Prometheus itself has no length
limit on relabel regex. Raise the CRD limit to 8192.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change increases the maximum RelabelConfig.Regex length from 1000 to 8192 characters in Go validation and the ClusterMonitoring CRD schema. It adds a creation test for a longer writeRelabelConfigs regex with ServiceAccount authorization and the Drop action.

Suggested reviewers: marioferh

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 351de

The new limit works for a moderately long regex, but its promised maximum is not protected by tests. Add exact-limit acceptance and above-limit rejection coverage before relying on this regression protection.

Full details: Stable And Deterministic Test Names

Explanation

The added test title is static, but it is overly specific and tied to the old 1000-byte limit: Should accept writeRelabelConfigs with regex longer than 1000 bytes at ClusterMonitoringConfig.yaml:3125. The PR changes the limit to 8192, so this threshold-specific title can become stale when the supported limit changes. The test generator passes testEntry.Name directly to Ginkgo Entry, making this a Ginkgo test name.

Full details: Microshift Test Compatibility

Explanation

The pull request adds a YAML test case that the repository converts into a Ginkgo DescribeTable entry. The case creates ClusterMonitoring with apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1alpha1. The custom check marks every OpenShift API group other than Route and SecurityContextConstraints as unavailable on MicroShift. The test name has no [Skipped:MicroShift] or [apigroup:...] tag, and the generated test has no MicroShift runtime skip.

Resolution

MicroShift compatibility notice: This test uses the unavailable config.openshift.io API on MicroShift. If this repository's presubmit CI does not already include MicroShift jobs, verify the test with /payload-job periodic-ci-openshift-microshift-release-4.22-periodics-e2e-aws-ovn-ocp-conformance. If the test is not applicable to MicroShift, add [apigroup:config.openshift.io] to the test name, add [Skipped:MicroShift], or add an exutil.IsMicroShiftCluster() check with g.Skip().

Should be a safe change relaxing the length validation

// When omitted, this means no opinion and the platform is left to choose a reasonable default, which is subject to change over time.
// The default value is "(.*)" to match everything.
// Must be between 1 and 1000 characters in length when specified.
// Must be between 1 and 8192 characters in length when specified.

Out of scope of this PR, but it would be nice to have some validation around RE2, since this just allows any string. I assume the consumer of this API does that already, though

/override-sticky ci/prow/e2e-upgrade-out-of-change

Automated triage: The failed test is unrelated to the PR changes; applying the sticky override for this status context.

Job classification: Eligible long-running AWS IPI e2e upgrade presubmit. The openshift-upgrade-aws workflow runs openshift-e2e-test; the test phase ran for about 41 minutes and the full job for about 1h57m.
Revision check: run 351de691188f1742d295a25af73eecdef7d3e88f; current PR HEAD 351de691188f1742d295a25af73eecdef7d3e88f; match.
Execution status: Tests executed. Prow logs show the test step failed with failed due to a MonitorTest failure. The exact failing test reported for 5.1 is [Monitor:audit-log-analyzer][sig-api-machinery][Feature:APIServer] API LBs follow /readyz of kube-apiserver and stop sending requests before server shutdowns for external clients.
Completed supporting jobs: ci/prow/e2e-upgrade, ci/prow/minor-e2e-upgrade-minor, and ci/prow/verify-crd-schema succeeded; ci/prow/build, ci/prow/unit, ci/prow/integration, and ci/prow/verify also succeeded. Pending checks: ci/prow/e2e-aws-ovn, ci/prow/e2e-aws-ovn-hypershift-conformance, ci/prow/e2e-aws-ovn-techpreview, ci/prow/e2e-aws-serial-1of2, ci/prow/e2e-aws-serial-2of2, ci/prow/e2e-aws-serial-techpreview-1of2, ci/prow/e2e-gcp, and tide.
Fleet-wide failure rate: This presubmit had 15/19 passes (78.9%) in the last 14 days; the failures included multiple failure modes, so this is job-level context, not a test-specific rate.
Test pass rates: In the 5.1 openshift-tests-upgrade report, the exact test passed 2,183/2,252 runs (96.94%; 69 failed; 0 recorded flakes). The 14-day AWS/amd64 query reported 2,475/2,489 passes (99.44%; 14 failed).
Open regressions: None found in the 5.1 regression query; the test report showed open_bugs=0.
Linked bugs: No current open bug linkage was relied on; a live Jira status for a historical candidate could not be verified.
Overlap assessment: The eight-file PR changes the ClusterMonitoring relabel-regex length limit and its generated schema/OpenAPI artifacts plus a schema test. It does not change kube-apiserver load-balancer behavior, graceful shutdown, or upgrade logic; no plausible direct or indirect overlap with the failed assertion was found.
Missing-coverage risk: Low but not zero—the override accepts without this run's API load-balancer graceful-shutdown assertion. The assertion executed; the PR's schema change is separately covered by the added config test and successful verify-crd-schema, while other completed upgrade checks also passed.
Prior bot activity on this SHA: /test e2e-upgrade-out-of-change was requested at 14:49 UTC and this is the resulting run; the earlier /retest-required entry predates this SHA. No prior override is recorded.
Rationale: The exact test has repeated failures in the 5.1 upgrade fleet and the tested shutdown/load-balancer surface is outside this PR's schema-only diff.

If you disagree with this assessment, rerun the current job with /test e2e-upgrade-out-of-change.
