Problem

RHWA-1245 requires porting 7 NHC escalation chain tests from ocp-edge-auto (Python/pytest) to system-tests (Go/Ginkgo). This PR covers the first batch: 5 validation/webhook tests plus the shared escalation builder helpers that both validation and functional tests need.

Summary

Add escalation-specific NHC CR builders and 5 webhook validation tests for the escalatingRemediations field.

Changes

  • Add buildNHCWithEscalation() typed builder for constructing NHC CRs with escalatingRemediations (replaces remediationTemplate)
  • Add buildNHCWithEscalationRaw() raw-map builder for negative validation tests that need intentionally invalid specs
  • Add escalationStep type and factory functions for SNR and TestRemediation escalation steps
  • Add validEscalationStepRaw() and testRemediationStepRaw() helpers for raw map construction
  • Add escalation constants to nhcparams (test names, timeout values, expected webhook error substrings)
  • OCP-60863: Verify order field is required, duplicate order values are rejected, and very large order values are accepted
  • OCP-60862: Verify timeout field is required and timeout < 60s is rejected
  • OCP-66838: Verify duplicate remediator Kind is forbidden when the templates do not support multiple templates of the same Kind
  • OCP-74932: Verify duplicate remediator Kind is accepted when all templates of that Kind carry the multiple-templates-support annotation (positive companion to OCP-66838)
  • OCP-60865: Verify editing escalation order is rejected during active remediation (uses TestRemediation with long timeout to hold remediation in-progress state)
  • Minor gofmt whitespace fixes in existing NHC test files

Jira: RHWA-1245

Required by: PR 2 (destructive E2E escalation tests OCP-60857, OCP-60858, OCP-66806)

Also: fix kubelet-restart recovery race against the AWS Nitro watchdog

The e2e presubmit on this PR surfaced a pre-existing flake unrelated to the escalation work. NHC destructive specs stop kubelet on a target node to trigger remediation, then SSH back in to restart kubelet during recovery. On AWS Nitro instances a hardware watchdog reboots the node ~60-90s after kubelet stops heartbeating, so an SSH restart that lands mid-reboot fails with Connection timed out during banner exchange even though remediation already succeeded and the node recovers on its own.

Two specs hard-asserted this best-effort recovery step with Expect(startKubeletForRemediation(...)).To(Succeed()):

  • nhc_template_management.go -- "triggers remediation with custom TestRemediationTemplate" (test_id 61976), the spec that failed this PR's 4.22-konflux-e2e-nhc-aws presubmit
  • nhc_remediation_trigger.go -- "one-at-a-time constraint" spec, an identical latent bug

Both now follow the best-effort convention already used by the other kubelet-restart sites in the suite: log a warning + AddReportEntry, then rely on the following WaitForNodeReady/waitForNHCPhase gate as the real recovery check. No product code changes; kubelet auto-starts on boot after the watchdog reboot, so a genuine non-recovery still fails at the gate.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation

    • Added guidance for escalation-remediation validation scenarios, including timeout requirements, escalation ordering, duplicate remediator types, and restrictions on updates during active remediation.
  • Tests

    • Expanded coverage for escalation webhook validation and remediation behavior.
    • Added checks for missing or invalid fields, duplicate values, timeout limits, escalation sequencing, and recovery after remediation.

High-Level Assessment

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Model escalation steps with typed Go structs for unstructured conversion
  • ➕ Stronger compile-time guarantees and fewer map key typos
  • ➕ Easier reuse across additional escalation functional tests
  • ➖ Negative tests still require raw/unstructured mutation, so you’ll keep a raw path anyway
  • ➖ More code to maintain for a test-only representation
2. Table-driven webhook validation cases (single It with entries)
  • ➕ Less repeated boilerplate around create/expect error/not-created checks
  • ➕ Easier to add the remaining ported validation cases consistently
  • ➖ Can reduce per-case readability in Ginkgo output unless carefully named
  • ➖ The destructive edit-during-remediation case doesn’t fit the same table pattern

Recommendation: Current approach is appropriate: keep a typed builder for valid specs and a raw-map builder for deliberate invalid specs, which matches webhook-validation needs. Consider converting the three simple rejection cases (missing/duplicate fields, duplicate kind) into a small table-driven pattern to reduce repetition as more cases are ported.

Action required

1. Update conflict flakes test ✗ Dismissed 🐞 Bug ☼ Reliability
Description
The escalation edit test performs APIClient.Update on an NHC while remediation is active; concurrent
controller writes to the same object can cause intermittent resourceVersion conflict errors instead
of the expected admission webhook rejection. This makes the new test flaky and can fail for the
wrong reason (conflict) rather than validating the intended webhook behavior.

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The test explicitly waits for the NHC to enter Remediating and for a TestRemediation CR to exist
(active reconciliation), then immediately does a full-object Update and asserts a specific webhook
error substring; without conflict handling, concurrent updates can fail the test for the wrong
reason.

tests/nhc-operator/tests/nhc_escalation_validation.go[202-243]

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
`nhc_escalation_validation.go` updates a live NHC object during active remediation using `APIClient.Update`. Because the controller is actively reconciling and updating NHC status during remediation, the object’s `resourceVersion` can change between `Get` and `Update`, causing intermittent `Conflict` errors that break the test (and do not include the expected webhook substring).

## Issue Context
The test intends to validate that *spec changes* to `escalatingRemediations` are rejected by the webhook while remediation is in progress. A `Conflict` error is not the validation signal and should be retried away.

## Fix Focus Areas
- tests/nhc-operator/tests/nhc_escalation_validation.go[202-244]

## Suggested fix
Wrap the `Get`+mutate+`Update` in `retry.RetryOnConflict(...)` (or an explicit loop) so that:
- On `apierrors.IsConflict(err)`: re-`Get`, re-apply the intended spec mutation, retry.
- On any non-conflict error: assert it contains `nhcparams.EscalationWebhookUpdateProhibited`.
This keeps the test focused on webhook behavior and removes intermittent conflicts.

Informational

2. Generic webhook substrings ✗ Dismissed 🐞 Bug ⚙ Maintainability
Description
Some new escalation webhook assertions match very generic substrings (notably "at least", also
"order"/"timeout"), which can allow the tests to pass even if the API rejects the CR for a different
validation reason that happens to contain the same common words. This reduces the
precision/diagnostic value of the added validation tests compared to existing negative-validation
tests that match field-specific paths.
Code

tests/nhc-operator/internal/nhcparams/const.go[R192-193]

+	// EscalationWebhookTimeoutMinimum is the expected webhook error for timeout < 60s.
+	EscalationWebhookTimeoutMinimum = "at least"
Relevance

●● Moderate

Generic substrings reduce test signal, but no close precedent on webhook error matching strictness.

PR-#70

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence
The new constant EscalationWebhookTimeoutMinimum is defined as the highly generic string "at
least" and is used in the new escalation validation test. Existing negative validation tests in the
same suite demonstrate more precise matching against field-path substrings.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
Escalation validation tests assert webhook failures using very broad substrings (e.g., `EscalationWebhookTimeoutMinimum = "at least"`). These matches are not specific to the intended rule/field and can produce false-positive test passes.

## Issue Context
Other NHC negative-validation tests in this repo match field-path substrings like `spec.minHealthy` / `spec.unhealthyConditions`, which is more robust and debuggable.

## Fix Focus Areas
- tests/nhc-operator/internal/nhcparams/const.go[183-200]
- tests/nhc-operator/tests/nhc_escalation_validation.go[101-135]
- tests/nhc-operator/tests/nhc_negative_validation.go[145-173]

## Suggested fix
Make the escalation expected substrings more specific, e.g.:
- timeout-minimum: include both field and constraint (e.g. `"timeout"` + `"60"` or a stable field-path like `spec.escalatingRemediations` if present in messages)
- order-required: prefer a field-path if the webhook includes it (e.g. `"escalatingRemediations"` + `"order"`).
Then update the `ContainSubstring` assertions accordingly.

This is not specific to this PR — it's a repo-wide pattern. For example, this function has 8 lines of logic and 4 blank lines between them (almost every other line is blank). The blank lines between spec := nhcSpec(nhc) / delete(...) / steps := make(...) are not required by any linter (wsl only requires blanks before block statements like if, for, switch). Same pattern appears in isSNRCRDInstalled (line 118), nhc_negative_validation.go, nhc_remediation_trigger.go, and across other operator suites.

About half the whitespace changes in this PR match wsl/nlreturn linter rules (blank before for, removing blank at start of block). The other half are cosmetic — they create review noise and increase merge conflict risk without functional benefit.

This seems common across recent system-tests PRs (likely from AI coding agents inserting blank lines as a style preference). How do you think is best to address this — both for existing code in the backlog and for future development? Some options:

  • Add a rule to AGENTS.md (e.g., "do not add or remove blank lines in code you are not otherwise modifying")
  • Add gofumpt to the linter config to enforce a single standard
  • A dedicated cleanup PR to normalize whitespace repo-wide (once, to avoid per-PR churn)
  • Something else?

Would be good to align on an approach so reviewers don't have to flag this on every PR.

Some of the whitespace changes in existing files are wsl/nlreturn linter fixes (removing blank lines at start of func blocks, adding blanks before for/if). The rest, and the blank lines in new helper functions, are cosmetic from the AI coding agent. That is the half you are flagging.

For the broader question: gofumpt + wsl/nlreturn in the linter config, combined with a one-time cleanup PR to normalize the baseline, is the most reliable approach. AGENTS.md guidance alone would be unreliable since different agents have different defaults.

Tracked as RHWA-1595.

for nhcName and timeout: remove those parameters and adjust all callers if they
are not needed, or add a justified //nolint:unparam only if the generic
signature is intentionally required for future callers. Keep the existing
polling and timeout behavior unchanged.

Port 4 NHC escalation chain tests from ocp-edge-auto to system-tests:
- OCP-60863: escalation order field required + no duplicate values
- OCP-60862: escalation timeout field required + minimum 60s
- OCP-66838: duplicate remediator Kind forbidden in escalation chain
- OCP-60865: editing escalation order rejected during active remediation

Add buildNHCWithEscalation() and buildNHCWithEscalationRaw() helpers for
constructing NHC CRs with escalatingRemediations (vs single template).
Add typed and raw escalation step builders for SNR and TestRemediation.

Confirmed against Polarion OCP-60863. Step 4 ("Create NHC CR with escalation very big value in order field", order 9999999998/9999999999) expects the NHC to be created successfully. Added in HEAD e665dc7 as a third By() in the existing OCP-60863 spec (nhc_escalation_validation.go:106), asserting the CR is created and persisted.

It is merged into the existing spec rather than a separate It so OCP-60863 keeps a single reportxml.ID - two It blocks sharing one ID would overwrite the JUnit -> Polarion import. The enclosing Context and the spec were renamed to "...validation" since the spec now covers both rejected and accepted cases. The int64 raw builder holds 9999999999, and the CRD's order field is Go int (not int32), so large values are accepted as expected.

- Fix varnamelen: rename loop index i to stepIndex and s to step in
  buildNHCWithEscalation (nhc_helpers.go)
- Fix unparam on validEscalationStepRaw order: add OCP-60863 Step 4 coverage
  (very large order values accepted), which supplies a non-zero call site
- Merge the large-order acceptance case into the existing OCP-60863 It as a
  third By() (avoids a duplicate reportxml.ID that would overwrite the JUnit
  -> Polarion import); rename the It and Context to neutral "validation"
- Assert the large-order NHC is persisted, and clean it up via the suite list
- Update README medik8s#17 (title, description, pass-criteria, --focus) for the
  accepted large-order case

/test 4.22-konflux-e2e-nhc-aws

The multiple-templates-support acceptance test created the
MultiTemplateRemediationTemplate CRD and annotated CRs but no RBAC for
them. The NHC validating webhook lists that Kind cluster-wide as the
controller-manager SA to check the annotation; without list/watch
permission the List returns Forbidden and the check fails closed,
rejecting the duplicate-kind escalation with a 403. Add a ClusterRole +
ClusterRoleBinding (get/list/watch on multitemplateremediationtemplates)
for the controller SA in setupMultipleTemplateSupport, and tear it down
in cleanup, mirroring the TestRemediation RBAC helper.
