From ebe24757a37e3a6297e92075e7860b6b9cfd8c67 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Musharaf Maqbool Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2025 20:40:37 +0530 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Enhance IP assignment error messages with detailed diagnostics Fixes #3415 Enhanced error messages for IP address allocation failures to provide more detailed diagnostic information as requested in issue #3415. Changes made: - Added current IP usage statistics (used/available) to error messages - Included ENI limit information in allocation failure messages - Enhanced subnet configuration context in error logs - Provided specific failure reasons to assist with troubleshooting This improvement will help users quickly identify the root cause of IP assignment failures: - Whether it's due to subnet IP exhaustion - ENI limits being reached - VPC/subnet configuration issues - IP warming delays The enhanced error messages follow the format: "failed to allocate IP on ENI %s: %v.

Better root cause identification for prefix delegation scenarios 2. ENI allocation status information in error messages 3. More detailed fragmentation context for troubleshooting **Testing:** Enhanced error messages now provide actionable diagnostic information for common IP allocation failure scenarios. --- pkg/ipamd/ipamd.go | 33 +++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 25 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/pkg/ipamd/ipamd.go b/pkg/ipamd/ipamd.go index f032bf8593..6221c16506 100644 --- a/pkg/ipamd/ipamd.go +++ b/pkg/ipamd/ipamd.go @@ -1049,8 +1049,11 @@ func (c *IPAMContext) tryAllocateENI(ctx context.Context, networkCard int) error if err != nil { log.Errorf("Failed to increase pool size due to not able to allocate ENI %v", err) ipamdErrInc("increaseIPPoolAllocENI") - log.Warnf("Failed to allocate %d IP addresses on an ENI: %v", resourcesToAllocate, err) - if containsInsufficientCIDRsOrSubnetIPs(err) { + // Get current ENI diagnostics + eniCount := len(c.dataStoreAccess.GetDataStore(networkCard).GetAllocatableENIs(c.maxIPsPerENI, c.useCustomNetworking)) + log.Warnf("Failed to allocate %d IP addresses on an ENI: %v.

I've updated the implementation to address your concerns: 🔄 **Changes Made:** - **Replaced verbose logging** with structured Kubernetes events - **Events are emitted on nodes** when IP allocation fails - users can see them via `kubectl describe node` - **Detailed diagnostic information** including: - Specific failure reason (subnet exhaustion, ENI limits, fragmentation) - Available IP counts and subnet details - Actionable guidance for operators - **Reduced log verbosity** - keeping only essential debug information 🎯 **Result:** - Users now get clear, actionable information about why their pods can't get IPs - The "why" is surfaced through Kubernetes events instead of buried in logs - Operators can quickly identify if it's fragmentation, ENI limits, or genuine capacity issues This addresses the core issue you raised about providing meaningful diagnostics to users rather than just verbose logs for debugging. The gRPC handler now gets structured error information while users get events they can actually act on.
