We are planning to remove image field from KMSPluginConfiguration in openshift/api (ref: openshift/enhancements#2082), since it will be populated by the OLM operators and stored in ConfigMap.

However, encryption controllers still need to carry this image field along to plugin lifecycle. This PR introduces new encodable/decodable internal API type which is derived from KMSPluginConfiguration but extended with image field.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • KMS encryption state now preserves both provider settings and the associated plugin image.
    • Vault-based encryption sidecars use the configured KMS plugin image.
    • KMS configuration secrets support the updated internal format for reliable storage and retrieval.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved provider-instance comparison and KMS migration handling by using complete stored configuration data.
    • Expanded validation for Vault settings, authentication, plugin images, and encryption configuration round trips.

Walkthrough

KMS plugin state now uses an internal wrapper that stores provider configuration and plugin image. Encoding, secret persistence, controllers, sidecar construction, and encryption tests now use this wrapper.

Changes

KMS internal configuration flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Internal configuration contract and codec
pkg/operator/encryption/state/types.go, pkg/operator/encryption/encoding/*
Adds InternalKMSPluginConfig and encodes both provider configuration and plugin image through an internal Kubernetes envelope.
State and secret serialization
pkg/operator/encryption/encryptiondata/*, pkg/operator/encryption/secrets/*, pkg/operator/encryption/testing/helpers.go
Updates encryption state, secret conversion, helpers, and fixtures to use the internal configuration type and codec functions.
Controller and sidecar integration
pkg/operator/encryption/controllers/*, pkg/operator/encryption/kms/pluginlifecycle/*
Stores nested provider configuration in KMS state, compares nested provider data, and passes the internal plugin image to Vault sidecar construction.
Preflight and end-to-end validation
pkg/operator/encryption/kms/preflight/*, test/e2e-encryption/*, test/library/encryption/*
Updates generated configurations and assertions for internal KMS configuration decoding and nested provider fields.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 83a63

The change can reject existing persisted KMS configuration during upgrade and can fail to apply image-only updates to the plugin sidecar, potentially leaving encryption management unable to restore state or running an outdated plugin image. These are high-impact merge-readiness risks that should be resolved before merging.

Microshift Test Compatibility ✅ Passed The diff adds no Ginkgo e2e tests. The new test uses standard testing.T, and test/e2e-encryption only changes existing TestEncryptionIntegration assertions.
Single Node Openshift (Sno) Test Compatibility ✅ Passed The PR adds no new Ginkgo e2e tests; the existing standard TestEncryptionIntegration only changes KMS decoding and field assertions, with no multi-node assumptions.
Topology-Aware Scheduling Compatibility ✅ Passed The diff changes KMS configuration encoding and sidecar image propagation; it adds no deployment manifests or scheduling fields such as affinity, spreads, selectors, replicas, PDBs, or tolerations.
Ote Binary Stdout Contract ✅ Passed The diff adds only scheme registration in init and changes KMS encoding; it adds no stdout writes in process-level code. Existing fmt.Printf calls are unchanged test-helper code.
Ipv6 And Disconnected Network Test Compatibility ✅ Passed No Ginkgo e2e test was added. The existing e2e test only changes decoding and field assertions; the new round-trip test is a standard Go unit test with no network calls.
No-Weak-Crypto ✅ Passed The PR adds KMS configuration codec and image plumbing only. Added-line scans found no MD5, SHA1, DES, RC4, 3DES, Blowfish, ECB, custom crypto, or secret comparisons; crypto code is unchanged.
Container-Privileges ✅ Passed The PR changes only Go files and adds no privilege-related settings; sidecar security fields and root handling remain unchanged, with an existing comment justifying UID 0.
No-Sensitive-Data-In-Logs ✅ Passed The diff adds no production logging and does not add sensitive values to existing logs; it only changes KMS configuration storage and decoding. Existing provider logs are unchanged.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Propagate image-only changes without rotating the encryption key.

Line 579 compares only latestKey.KMS.Plugin.Plugin. sameProviderInstance therefore ignores KMSPluginImage. If only the image changes, this path returns a no-op and retains the old image stored at Lines 328-331. The sidecar builder uses the persisted KMSPluginImage, so it does not update the sidecar container image.

Reconcile and persist an image-only change independently from KMS key rotation. Add a regression test that changes only the image and verifies that the generated sidecar uses the new image.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve decoding compatibility with previously stored KMS data.

The new decoder only accepts the internal envelope format, while existing Key Secrets and encryption-config Secrets were written using the previous config.openshift.io/v1 APIServer envelope with spec.encryption.kms. After an upgrade, those stored values can be rejected before reconciliation restores KMS state. Add a legacy decode fallback that converts the previous format into state.InternalKMSPluginConfig, with fixtures covering both persisted formats.
