Allow administrators to provide per-component vSphere credentials by placing override secrets in the openshift-config namespace. Override secrets are mapped to their target CredentialsRequest via annotations:

cloudcredential.openshift.io/target-secret-namespace:
cloudcredential.openshift.io/target-secret-name:

When a CredentialsRequest is processed, the actuator lists secrets in openshift-config and looks for one whose target annotations match the CredentialsRequest's spec.secretRef. If found, the override secret's data is used; otherwise the shared root credential in kube-system/vsphere-creds is used as a fallback.

This enables least-privilege, per-component credentials for vSphere without breaking backward compatibility: clusters without override secrets continue to work exactly as before, with all components receiving the shared root credential.

Override secret example:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: anything-admin-wants
namespace: openshift-config
annotations:
cloudcredential.openshift.io/target-secret-namespace: openshift-machine-api
cloudcredential.openshift.io/target-secret-name: vsphere-cloud-credentials
cloudcredential.openshift.io/mode: passthrough
data:
.username: ...
.password: ...

Override secrets must carry the cloudcredential.openshift.io/mode annotation (same as the root credential secret) to be accepted.

The credentials request controller is also updated to watch for override secret changes in openshift-config so that create/update/delete events trigger reconciliation of all CredentialsRequests.

Pipeline controller notification
This repo is configured to use the pipeline controller. Second-stage tests will be triggered either automatically or after lgtm label is added, depending on the repository configuration. The pipeline controller will automatically detect which contexts are required and will utilize /test Prow commands to trigger the second stage.

For optional jobs, comment /test ? to see a list of all defined jobs. To trigger manually all jobs from second stage use /pipeline required command.

Walkthrough

The change adds annotated per-component vSphere credential override support. The operator watches matching Secrets, selects overrides for CredentialsRequests, falls back to shared root credentials, and validates these paths with unit and reconciliation tests.

Changes

vSphere credential overrides

Layer / File(s) Summary
Override contract and Secret watch
pkg/operator/constants/constants.go, pkg/operator/credentialsrequest/credentialsrequest_controller.go, pkg/operator/credentialsrequest/credentialsrequest_controller_vsphere_test.go
Defines the override namespace and target annotations. The controller recognizes matching Secret events and requeues CredentialsRequests. Tests cover annotation matching and event filtering.
Credential selection and fallback
pkg/vsphere/actuator/actuator.go, pkg/vsphere/actuator/actuator_test.go
Selects a matching override Secret before the shared root Secret. Tests cover fallback, annotation validation, target matching, and update behavior.
Reconciliation validation and dependency update
pkg/operator/credentialsrequest/credentialsrequest_controller_vsphere_test.go, go.mod
Tests override precedence, nonmatching overrides, missing annotations, operation without root credentials, and target Secret results. Updates the direct github.com/openshift/api dependency.

Full details: Test Structure And Quality

Explanation

The new tests use standard Go testing with testify, but the assertion-message requirement still applies. Many newly added assertions omit messages, including require.Error(t, err), require.NoError(t, err), require.NotNil(t, secret), and data/status comparisons in pkg/vsphere/actuator/actuator_test.go, plus several assertions in the new override reconciliation tests. These failures provide limited diagnostic context beyond expected and actual values. The tests otherwise use isolated fake clients, perform no cluster waits, and keep each table-driven subtest focused on one scenario.

Resolution

Add meaningful diagnostic messages to every assertion introduced by the pull request. Include the scenario and expected behavior, such as require.NoError(t, err, "failed to retrieve credentials for override case %q", tt.name), require.NotNil(t, secret, "expected credentials secret for case %q", tt.name), and messages that identify whether override data, root fallback data, or reconciliation status was expected. Keep the existing fake-client isolation and table-driven structure.

Requeue when an override stops matching.

Line 241 checks only e.ObjectNew. If an update removes a target annotation, or changes the target to another CredentialsRequest, this predicate returns false. The prior target Secret then keeps the old override data until its next periodic reconciliation.

Check both versions during updates.

Proposed fix
 UpdateFunc: func(e event.TypedUpdateEvent[*corev1.Secret]) bool {
-    return IsVSphereOverrideSecret(e.ObjectNew.GetNamespace(), e.ObjectNew.GetAnnotations())
+    return IsVSphereOverrideSecret(e.ObjectOld.GetNamespace(), e.ObjectOld.GetAnnotations()) ||

Handle the provider-spec encoding error.

Line 359 discards the error from minterv1.Codec.EncodeProviderSpec. If encoding fails, this helper creates an invalid CredentialsRequest and hides the cause from the test.

Reject duplicate vSphere override targets.

When two Secrets in openshift-config have the same target annotations, GetCredentialsRootSecret returns the first match. Different override data can therefore supply unintended credentials. No repository validation enforces unique target annotations. Reject duplicate matches with CredentialsProvisionFailure and add a test with two matching overrides.

GetCredentialsRootSecret to detect multiple Secrets matching the same target
namespace and name instead of returning the first match. Return an actuator
error with CredentialsProvisionFailure when a duplicate target is found, while
preserving the existing annotation validation and successful single-match
behavior; add a test covering two matching override Secrets.

@rvanderp3: This pull request references SPLAT-2829 which is a valid jira issue.

Warning: The referenced jira issue has an invalid target version for the target branch this PR targets: expected the spike to target the "5.1.0" version, but no target version was set.

Details

In response to this:

Allow administrators to provide per-component vSphere credentials by placing override secrets in the openshift-config namespace. Override secrets are mapped to their target CredentialsRequest via annotations:

cloudcredential.openshift.io/target-secret-namespace:
cloudcredential.openshift.io/target-secret-name:

When a CredentialsRequest is processed, the actuator lists secrets in openshift-config and looks for one whose target annotations match the CredentialsRequest's spec.secretRef. If found, the override secret's data is used; otherwise the shared root credential in kube-system/vsphere-creds is used as a fallback.

This enables least-privilege, per-component credentials for vSphere without breaking backward compatibility: clusters without override secrets continue to work exactly as before, with all components receiving the shared root credential.

Override secret example:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: anything-admin-wants
namespace: openshift-config
annotations:
cloudcredential.openshift.io/target-secret-namespace: openshift-machine-api
cloudcredential.openshift.io/target-secret-name: vsphere-cloud-credentials
cloudcredential.openshift.io/mode: passthrough
data:
.username: ...
.password: ...

Override secrets must carry the cloudcredential.openshift.io/mode annotation (same as the root credential secret) to be accepted.

The credentials request controller is also updated to watch for override secret changes in openshift-config so that create/update/delete events trigger reconciliation of all CredentialsRequests.

Add test coverage for the vSphere per-component credential override
feature introduced in the parent commit:

- TestIsVSphereOverrideSecret (8 cases): exercises the pure function
  that identifies override secrets by namespace and annotations,
  covering correct matches, wrong namespace, nil/empty/partial
  annotations, and extra annotations.

- TestCredentialsRequestVSphereReconcileWithOverride (5 cases):
  exercises the full controller reconcile path with override secrets,
  covering new CR provisioning with override data, updating stale
  targets when an override appears, fallback to root when the override
  targets a different CR, error when the mode annotation is missing,
  and provisioning with an override when no root secret exists.
