TOCTOU Race in ensureInstallPlanensureInstallPlan 中的 TOCTOU 竞态

Discovered a Time-of-Check-to-Time-of-Use race condition in OLM's ensureInstallPlan. The function checked if an InstallPlan existed, then created one — but between check and create, another reconcile loop could create a duplicate. Fixed with atomic create-or-get pattern. Backported to downstream.发现 OLM ensureInstallPlan 中的 TOCTOU 竞态条件。函数先检查 InstallPlan 是否存在再创建,但在检查和创建之间,另一个 Reconcile Loop 可能创建重复。用原子 create-or-get 模式修复。回移到下游。

CRD Validation: Storage Version OnlyCRD 验证:仅存储版本

Fixed CRD validation to only validate Custom Resources against the storage version schema, not all served versions. The previous behavior caused false validation failures when CRDs had multiple versions with different schemas, blocking operator installations.修复 CRD 验证仅对存储版本 Schema 验证 Custom Resources,而非所有服务版本。之前的行为在 CRD 有多个不同 Schema 版本时导致虚假验证失败,阻断 Operator 安装。

HA Deployments via Helm Values通过 Helm Values 实现 HA 部署

Made OLMv1 operator-controller deployments HA-ready by making replica count configurable through Helm values. Previously hardcoded to 1, this blocked HA deployments. Added proper Helm templating with default value preservation and PDB support.通过 Helm values 使 OLMv1 operator-controller 部署的副本数可配置,实现 HA 就绪。之前硬编码为 1,阻断 HA 部署。添加正确的 Helm 模板化,保留默认值并支持 PDB。

DeploymentController API Contract FixDeploymentController API 约定修复

Fixed DeploymentController in library-go to comply with OpenShift's Available API contract. The controller was incorrectly reporting Available condition, causing cluster operators to show degraded status during normal operations. A subtle but high-impact fix affecting all operators using library-go.修复 library-go 中的 DeploymentController 以符合 OpenShift 的 Available API 约定。控制器错误报告 Available 条件,导致集群 Operator 在正常操作期间显示降级状态。一个微妙但影响广泛的修复,影响所有使用 library-go 的 Operator。
