📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

DefaultEventSink.emit now patches an existing event through the previously read resource. This preserves its resource version and enables optimistic-concurrency conflict detection.

Event patching

Layer / File(s) Summary
Patch the read event resource
operator-framework-core/src/main/java/io/javaoperatorsdk/operator/api/event/DefaultEventSink.java
Existing events are patched with events.resource(existing) instead of events.withName(name).

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to d52d0

A concurrent update can cause an event-count increment to be dropped when the patch receives a 409 Conflict, leaving recorded counts lower than expected. The PR is otherwise localized and mergeable with explicit owner awareness to add bounded retry handling and regression coverage.

Pull request overview

This PR updates DefaultEventSink to patch an existing Kubernetes Event using the already-fetched existing resource handle, avoiding patching by name and aligning the patch operation with the resource instance obtained from the initial get.

Changes:

  • Patch aggregated events via events.resource(existing) instead of events.withName(name).

Fabric8 Kubernetes Client 7.8.0 item-based patch resource(existing) resourceVersion conflict behavior

💡 Result:

In the Fabric8 Kubernetes Client (including version 7.8.0), item-based patch operations are generally subject to optimistic locking based on the resourceVersion of the item provided [1][2]. When you perform a patch operation on a specific item (e.g., using a fluent API chain that targets a resource), the client uses the resourceVersion present on that object as a condition for the operation [1][2]. If the resource has been modified on the Kubernetes server between the time you retrieved the object and the time you submit the patch, the server will reject the request due to a conflict (optimistic concurrency violation) [1][2]. Key behavioral details: - Optimistic Locking: The client binds the patch to the resourceVersion of the item being patched by default [1][2]. This ensures that your updates are only applied if the state hasn't changed since you read it [3][4]. - Disabling Locking: If you do not want this optimistic locking behavior—for example, if you want to force an update regardless of concurrent changes—you can set the resourceVersion of the item to null before calling the patch method [1][2]. - Patch Strategies: The exact behavior can vary depending on the patch type (JSON, JSON Merge, or Strategic Merge). Historically, there have been nuances in how different patch types handle the resourceVersion, but the standard expectation in modern versions is that mutative operations operate under these locking constraints [1][5][2]. - Conflict Handling: If a conflict occurs, the client throws an exception, reflecting the underlying Kubernetes API server response. You would typically handle this by catching the exception, fetching the updated resource, re-applying your changes, and retrying the operation [1][2]. It is important to note that when using informers, you should never modify the objects directly from the cache, as this can lead to unexpected changes to the resourceVersion and inconsistent state in your client application [1][2].

Retry 409 Conflict before dropping an event occurrence.

events.resource(existing).patch(aggregated) sends the existing resourceVersion in the JSON patch. A concurrent update can therefore cause a 409 Conflict. DefaultEventRecorder.record catches that exception and drops the occurrence. Re-read the event and recompute the count with a bounded retry. Add regression tests for the conflict and successful single-read paths.

@TQJADE sorry this was an afterthought, it should be a bit more efficient this way.
