# Istio

|
## Upgrade Istio Manifests
|
|
|
|
Istio ships with an installer called `istioctl`, which is a deployment /
|
|
debugging / configuration management tool for Istio all in one package.
|
|
In this section, we explain how to upgrade our istio kustomize packages
|
|
by leveraging `istioctl`. Assuming the new version is `X.Y.Z` and the
|
|
old version is `X1.Y1.Z1`:
|
|
|
|
1. Make a copy of the old istio manifests tree, which will become the
|
|
kustomization for the new Istio version:
|
|
|
|
$ export MANIFESTS_SRC=<path/to/manifests/repo>
|
|
$ export ISTIO_OLD=$MANIFESTS_SRC/common/istio-X1-Y1
|
|
$ export ISTIO_NEW=$MANIFESTS_SRC/common/istio-X-Y
|
|
$ cp -a $ISTIO_OLD $ISTIO_NEW
|
|
|
|
2. Download `istioctl` for version `X.Y.Z`:
|
|
|
|
$ ISTIO_VERSION="X.Y.Z"
|
|
$ wget "https://github.com/istio/istio/releases/download/${ISTIO_VERSION}/istio-${ISTIO_VERSION}-linux-amd64.tar.gz"
|
|
$ tar xvfz istio-${ISTIO_VERSION}-linux-amd64.tar.gz
|
|
# sudo mv istio-${ISTIO_VERSION}/bin/istioctl /usr/local/bin/istioctl
|
|
|
|
3. Use `istioctl` to generate an `IstioOperator` resource, the
|
|
CustomResource used to describe the Istio Control Plane:
|
|
|
|
$ cd $ISTIO_NEW
|
|
$ istioctl profile dump default > profile.yaml
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
**NOTE**
|
|
|
|
`istioctl` comes with a bunch of [predefined profiles](https://istio.io/latest/docs/setup/additional-setup/config-profiles/)
|
|
(`default`, `demo`, `minimal`, etc.). The `default` profile is installed by default.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
4. Generate manifests and add them to their respective packages. We
|
|
will generate manifests using `istioctl`, the
|
|
`profile.yaml` file from upstream and the
|
|
`profile-overlay.yaml` file that contains our desired
|
|
changes:
|
|
|
|
$ export PATH="$MANIFESTS_SRC/scripts:$PATH"
|
|
$ cd $ISTIO_NEW
|
|
$ istioctl manifest generate --cluster-specific -f profile.yaml -f profile-overlay.yaml > dump.yaml
|
|
$ ./split-istio-packages -f dump.yaml
|
|
$ mv $ISTIO_NEW/crd.yaml $ISTIO_NEW/istio-crds/base
|
|
$ mv $ISTIO_NEW/install.yaml $ISTIO_NEW/istio-install/base
|
|
$ mv $ISTIO_NEW/cluster-local-gateway.yaml $ISTIO_NEW/cluster-local-gateway/base
|
|
$ rm dump.yaml
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
**NOTE**
|
|
|
|
`split-istio-packages` is a python script in the same folder as this file.
|
|
The `ruamel.yaml` version used is 0.16.12.
|
|
|
|
`--cluster-specific` is a flag that determines if a current K8s cluster context will be used to dynamically
|
|
detect default settings. Ensure you have a target cluster ready before running the above commands.
|
|
We set this flag because `istioctl manifest generate` generates manifest files with resources that are no
|
|
longer supported in Kubernetes 1.25 (`policy/v1beta1`). See: https://github.com/istio/istio/issues/41220

## Changes to Istio's upstream manifests
|
|
|
|
### Changes to the upstream IstioOperator profile
|
|
|
|
Changes to Istio's upstream profile `default` are the following:
|
|
|
|
- Add a `cluster-local-gateway` component for Kserve. Knative-local-gateway is now obsolete https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests/pull/2355/commits/adc00b804404ea08685a044ae595be0bed9adb59.
|
|
- Disable the EgressGateway component. We do not use it and it adds unnecessary complexity.
|
|
|
|
Those changes are captured in the [profile-overlay.yaml](profile-overlay.yaml)
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
### Changes to the upstream manifests using kustomize
|
|
|
|
The Istio kustomizations make the following changes:
|
|
|
|
- Remove PodDisruptionBudget from `istio-install` and `cluster-local-gateway` kustomizations. See:
|
|
- https://github.com/istio/istio/issues/12602
|
|
- https://github.com/istio/istio/issues/24000
|
|
- Add EnvoyFilter for adding an `X-Forwarded-For` header in requests passing through the Istio Ingressgateway, inside the `istio-install` kustomization.
|
|
- Add Istio AuthorizationPolicy to allow all requests to the Istio Ingressgateway and the Istio cluster-local gateway.
|
|
- Add Istio AuthorizationPolicy in Istio's root namespace, so that sidecars deny traffic by default (explicit deny-by-default authorization model).
|
|
- Add Gateway CRs for the Istio Ingressgateway and the Istio cluster-local gateway, as `istioctl` stopped generating them in later versions.
|
|
- Add the istio-system namespace object to `istio-namespace`, as `istioctl` stopped generating it in later versions.
|
|
- Configure TCP KeepAlives.
|
|
- Disable tracing as it causes DNS breakdown. See:
|
|
https://github.com/istio/istio/issues/29898
|
|
- Set ENABLE_DEBUG_ON_HTTP=false according to https://istio.io/latest/docs/ops/best-practices/security/#control-plane
