When spec.graphicalConsoles is set to Enabled, users get browser-based
noVNC access to bare metal node consoles. The spec fields were already
introduced by the "CRD changes for graphical console" commit; this adds
the implementation.

When enabled, the conductor deployment is modified as follows:

  • a novnc sidecar running ironic-novncproxy is added to the conductor
    StatefulSet, exposed via a novnc port (6090) on the conductor Service
    and an edge-terminated Route; init.sh renders [vnc] public_url from
    the per-pod route hostname
  • enabled_console_interfaces gains redfish-graphical and fake-graphical,
    and the [vnc] section sets container_provider=kubernetes so the
    conductor creates a Pod and Secret per console (an x11vnc server
    rendered from ironic-console-pod.yaml.template, with pod affinity to
    the owning conductor)
  • a console-image-pull init container pre-pulls the console image onto
    nodes running a conductor so console pods start without delay

Console pods are created by the conductor in a dedicated console
namespace (e.g. openstack-ironic-consoles, derived from the service
namespace). To allow this cross-namespace:

  • the operator creates a Role and RoleBinding in the console namespace
    granting the conductor ServiceAccount pod and secret permissions;
    these carry no owner references since cross-namespace ownership is
    not allowed
  • the common RBAC rules for all ironic service accounts gain pod
    permissions, and conductor pods now automount their ServiceAccount
    token as required by the kubernetes container_provider. These changes
    apply to all conductors, not only those with graphical consoles
    enabled
  • console namespace creation is implemented but disabled until the
    operator is granted namespace permissions, so the console namespace
    must be created by an admin beforehand

Functional tests cover the enabled and disabled paths for the novnc
sidecar and the console-image-pull init container.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added graphical console support for conductor instances, including secure browser-based access to virtual machine consoles.
    • Console components are deployed when graphical consoles are enabled and omitted when they are disabled.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Preserved ramdisk log collection when a provisioning network is configured.

This change adds optional graphical-console and noVNC support for Ironic conductors. It adds console configuration and resources, a noVNC container and route, and controller reconciliation and RBAC updates. It also changes service-account token automounting and preserves the existing container list when adding dnsmasq.

Changes: Graphical console and noVNC support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Graphical-console configuration and resources
internal/ironic/const.go, internal/ironic/initcontainer.go, templates/ironicconductor/config/*, templates/ironicconductor/bin/init.sh, templates/common/config/ironic.conf
Templates add graphical console interfaces, VNC settings, and a console Secret and Pod. The init script sets the VNC public URL from its environment template.
noVNC workload and service exposure
internal/ironicconductor/service.go, internal/ironicconductor/statefulset.go, internal/ironicconductor/volumes.go, internal/ironic/initcontainer.go, test/functional/ironic_controller_test.go, test/functional/ironicconductor_controller_test.go
When graphical consoles are enabled, the conductor adds a noVNC container and console image-pull init container. The Service exposes port 6090, and a Route targets the noVNC port. Tests cover enabled and disabled workloads. The dnsmasq path appends its container to the existing list, and service-account token automounting is enabled.
Controller reconciliation and RBAC
internal/controller/funcs.go, internal/controller/ironic_controller.go, internal/controller/ironicconductor_controller.go, test/functional/ironicconductor_controller_test.go
The controller adds pod and graphical-console RBAC rules, Role and RoleBinding reconciliation, and CreateOrPatch reconciliation for Services and Routes. It adds graphical-console template parameters and uses fixed conductor, console, and noVNC image references.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to e300f

This PR deploys every conductor from a personal development image instead of the configured release image. It also asks Kubernetes to grant pod-management permissions that the operator does not hold, which can stop RBAC reconciliation for all Ironic services. In addition, it widens pod and token access for all components and leaves console permissions behind after the feature is disabled or the deployment is removed. These issues should be fixed before merge.

Remove pod CRUD from getCommonRbacRules.

getCommonRbacRules is used by every component's service-namespace Role, including Ironic, API, inspector, and INA. Pod create and delete are needed only in the console namespace, and getGraphicalConsoleRbacRules already grants them there. This change broadens privileges for all components. Revert the pod rule and update the test that expects three rules.

Update the operator RBAC before reconciling delegated pod Roles.

The controllers call common_rbac.ReconcileRbac with rules that grant full pod management. The operator’s manager-role grants only pods get,list. It has neither roles/escalate nor rolebindings bind.

Kubernetes can therefore reject the delegated Role or RoleBinding with Forbidden, blocking RBAC reconciliation. Add the full pod verbs to all five controller marker sets and regenerate config/rbac/role.yaml. The existing secret and SCC permissions already cover the remaining rules, so escalate and bind are not required after the operator holds the delegated permissions.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Use a console namespace name that cannot collide.

The prefix truncation maps openstack-a and openstack-b to the same openstack-ironic-consoles namespace. The Role and RoleBinding names depend only on the service account name, so the two deployments can overwrite each other's Role and RoleBinding. The RoleBinding subject namespace is overwritten, which revokes console access for the other deployment. Use the full namespace as the prefix.

Delete the cross-namespace Role and RoleBinding during cleanup.

These resources have no owner references, and nothing removes them. Cleanup is missing when consoles are disabled and when the CR is deleted. The bindings remain and continue to grant secret and pod access to any later service account with the same name. Add explicit deletion to reconcileDelete and to the disabled path.

Update the cleanup flow in reconcileDelete and the console-disabled
reconciliation path to explicitly delete the console Role and RoleBinding
created by reconcileGraphicalConsoleRbac, using the same names and console
namespace; keep normal reconciliation behavior unchanged.

Remove the hardcoded personal and master-latest images before merge.

Line 1058 replaces instance.Spec.Images.Conductor with quay.io/steveb/...:kubectl for every deployment. That ignores user and release image configuration and pulls from a personal registry. The console and noVNC images also use mutable master-latest tags. Restore the configured image fields, or gate this PR on the dependencies. golangci-lint also reports a gofmt failure at Line 1077.

Restore the configured image fields in the image configuration block: use
instance.Spec.Images.Conductor, instance.Spec.Images.GraphicalConsole, and
instance.Spec.Images.NoVNCProxy instead of the hardcoded personal and

Enable token automount only when graphical consoles are enabled.

Line 311 now mounts the service account token on every conductor pod. The common Role also grants full pod CRUD in the service namespace. A compromised conductor container can then manage arbitrary pods in the openstack namespace, even when graphical consoles are disabled. Make automount conditional on GraphicalConsoles == "Enabled". Keep the pod permissions scoped to the console namespace Role.

Update the service account token automount setting in the StatefulSet
configuration so it is enabled only when GraphicalConsoles is "Enabled";
otherwise, disable automount. Keep the pod permissions scoped to the console

Use https for the noVNC public URL.

RouteNoVNC configures edge TLS with InsecureEdgeTerminationPolicyRedirect. The generated public_url uses http. Each console link therefore receives a redirect. The page then loads over https, and the noVNC websocket must also use TLS. Set novncProtocol to https so the URL matches the Route.
