Why

Part of the delegated worker token feature (issue #840). Workers on self-hosted NVCF clusters need a cryptographic identity so NVCF/NVCT APIs can verify them without a pre-shared bootstrap secret. NVCA is the provisioner: it creates the per-pod worker ServiceAccount and projects a short-lived Kubernetes SAT into the pod so workers can authenticate via ICMS token introspection.

What changed

  • pkg/types/types.go: Added WorkerIdentifier, WorkerAuth structs and WorkerAuth *WorkerAuth field on ICMSInstanceStatusUpdateRequest. The JSON field names match what ICMS expects.
  • pkg/nvca/worker_identity.go (new): Helper functions for worker identity provisioning — ensureWorkerServiceAccount, injectWorkerIdentity, buildWorkerAuth. Keeps the logic out of the already-large k8scomputebackend.go.
  • pkg/nvca/backendk8scache.go: Added workerIdentityEnabled bool and clusterID string fields + WithWorkerIdentity builder method.
  • pkg/nvca/agent.go: Wires WithWorkerIdentity in the BackendK8sCacheBuilder call, gated on featureflag.SelfHosted && ClusterIssuedTokenSource == psat.
  • pkg/nvca/k8scomputebackend.go: In CreatePodArtifactInstances, creates worker SA and injects projected volume before pod creation. In GetICMSRequestUpdatesForCreatePodRequest, populates WorkerAuth in the payload for active (non-terminal) pods.

Customer Release Notes

Not customer visible — self-hosted infrastructure change.

Plan Summary

New Kubernetes resources created at runtime (not in Helm chart):

  • ServiceAccount: nvcf-worker-<instanceId> per container function pod
  • Projected SAT volume (audience: nvcf-icms:<clusterId>, TTL 900 s) mounted at /var/run/secrets/tokens

Only active when workerIdentityEnabled (self-hosted PSAT mode). Managed clusters and SPIRE-mode clusters are unaffected.

Usage

No operator action required. The feature activates automatically when the self-hosted Helm stack is deployed with the NCP profile (PSAT token source).

Testing

  • go test ./pkg/types/... ./pkg/nvca/... passes.
  • New unit tests in worker_identity_test.go cover SA creation idempotency, volume injection, env var injection, and WorkerAuth construction from pod metadata.
  • End-to-end validation requires a self-hosted cluster with all PRs deployed; see self-hosted test plan in the linked issue.

Notes

  • Worker SA deletion (on terminal state) is handled implicitly: ICMS clears the worker_identifiers row when it receives a terminal WorkerAuth: nil update. SA cleanup from Kubernetes is a follow-up (can be owner-referenced to the pod or garbage-collected by a separate controller).
  • NVCF_IDENTITY_SOURCE env var is set to psat in pods so the worker client library can detect which token source to use without probing the filesystem.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added worker identity support for MiniService utility pods using projected service-account tokens.
    • Worker identity is enabled automatically for supported self-hosted PSAT configurations.
    • Added identity metadata to instance status updates.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented pod-based resources from using reserved worker service accounts.
    • Continued support for the legacy worker token during migration.
  • Tests

    • Added validation coverage for permitted and restricted service-account configurations.

When self-hosted PSAT mode is active (SelfHosted feature flag + psat token
source), NVCA now:
- Creates a per-pod worker ServiceAccount (nvcf-worker-<podName>) before
  pod creation.
- Injects a projected ServiceAccount token volume into the pod spec
  (audience nvcf-icms:<clusterID>, expiry 900 s) and sets
  NVCF_TOKEN_FILE_PATH / NVCF_IDENTITY_SOURCE env vars in all containers
  so workers can read their PSAT for ICMS introspection.
- Populates WorkerAuth in PostInstanceStatusUpdate payloads so ICMS can
  maintain the per-instance worker identity set.

Adds WorkerIdentifier and WorkerAuth types to pkg/types and wires the new
workerIdentityEnabled / clusterID fields through BackendK8sCacheBuilder.

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to e04ca

This PR introduces automatic per-pod worker identities and projected tokens for self-hosted PSAT clusters. At the current head, unresolved paths can disable identity injection, weaken ServiceAccount validation, leave identity resources after failures, or delete existing identity resources during rollback for a running pod, potentially causing authentication failures or workload disruption. The PR is not merge-ready without fixes or explicit owner acceptance.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Normalize the token source before enabling worker identity.

At Line 1157, an empty ClusterIssuedTokenSource disables worker identity. Later, Lines 1291-1294 treat the same empty value as ClusterIssuedTokenSourcePSAT. A self-hosted deployment that uses this default starts the PSAT queue path but does not inject worker credentials.

Normalize the source once before this builder call. Add a regression test for the empty-source case.

Proposed fix
+	source := a.AgentOptions.Config.Authz.ClusterIssuedTokenSource

+		source = nvcaconfig.ClusterIssuedTokenSourcePSAT
+	}

Add the remaining pieces of REQ-210 and REQ-220 for delegated worker
token support (issue #840).

REQ-210: provision an empty Role and RoleBinding for each worker
ServiceAccount (nvcf-worker-<podName>) alongside the SA itself. The
empty Role makes the deny-by-default boundary explicit and auditable
without granting any Kubernetes API access.

REQ-220: extend the existing helmMiniServiceValWebhookHandler
validating webhook to reject any pod-bearing resource (Pod, Deployment,
StatefulSet, Job, CronJob) that requests a nvcf-worker-* ServiceAccount
name, preventing Helm chart workloads from forging worker tokens.

Also add cleanupWorkerIdentity to delete the RoleBinding, Role, and SA
in that order on pod termination, tolerating NotFound for each object.

Closes #840

Make worker identity provisioning atomic with pod creation.

This helper persists RBAC objects before Pods.Create. The supplied CreatePodArtifactInstances path returns without cleanup if pod creation fails. It also injects worker identity after ensureWorkerRBAC fails.

Roll back the ServiceAccount, Role, and RoleBinding on every failure after identity provisioning starts. Skip identity injection if the RBAC boundary is required but cannot be created. Add failure-path tests for RoleBinding and pod creation errors.

Based on the supplied downstream call path in src/compute-plane-services/nvca/pkg/nvca/k8scomputebackend.go.

Reject reserved ServiceAccounts for ReplicaSets.

validateWorkerSARestriction returns nil for *appsv1.ReplicaSet. validateResourceLimits already supports ReplicaSets, so a ReplicaSet can bypass this restriction and assign an nvcf-worker-* ServiceAccount to its Pods. Add a ReplicaSet case and a regression test.

As per coding guidelines, webhook code must “Validate all webhook inputs.”

- Return error on worker SA or RBAC provisioning failure instead of
  warn-and-continue; call cleanupWorkerIdentity on RBAC failure so any
  partially created SA or Role is rolled back atomically.
- Add *appsv1.ReplicaSet case to validateWorkerSARestriction so
  ReplicaSet-backed workloads cannot reference nvcf-worker-* SAs.
- Replace non-ASCII em dashes with ASCII in worker_identity_test.go.

cleanupWorkerIdentity can delete pre-existing resources when ensureWorkerRBAC fails. Track creation state and delete only resources created by this invocation.

When Pods.Create returns a non-AlreadyExists error, the function returns without cleaning up newly created identity resources. Add fake-client coverage for both paths.

Add regression coverage for the changed identity lifecycle and validation behavior.

Cover provisioning failure, cleanup, and WorkerAuth status output in k8scomputebackend tests, and add a ReplicaSet case verifying rejection of reserved nvcf-worker-* ServiceAccounts in the webhook tests.

Remove PSAT provisioning from the container function/task pod path entirely.
Only Helm workloads via the MiniService controller use the delegated worker
token (PSAT) flow. Container functions and tasks continue to use the legacy
NVCF-issued NVCF_WORKER_TOKEN; when they are eventually migrated to the
MiniService controller they will inherit PSAT provisioning automatically.

Also simplify the MiniService worker SA name from the per-instance
"nvcf-worker-<msName>" to the fixed constant "nvcf-worker". Each MiniService
gets its own namespace so a fixed name is sufficient and avoids unnecessary
coupling to the instance name.

Changes:
- Delete pkg/nvca/worker_identity.go and its test: container-path PSAT code
- Remove workerIdentityEnabled/clusterID fields and WithWorkerIdentity builder
  from BackendK8sCache; remove WithWorkerIdentity call from agent startup
- Remove three workerIdentityEnabled-gated blocks from k8scomputebackend.go
  (pod creation, termination cleanup, WorkerAuth in status update); add a
  comment noting the future migration path
- Add internal/miniservice/worker_identity.go with fixed "nvcf-worker" SA name
  and updated ensureWorkerIdentity/injectWorkerTokenVolume signatures
- Update reconcile.go call sites to match simplified signatures

Cross-component impact: none. NVCF and NVCT have no PSAT worker auth path
today (WorkerTokenIntrospectionService does not exist); workers use the
NVCF-issued token regardless of workload type. ICMS WorkerAuth is nullable and
already defaulted to nil for container workers on main.

Add regression tests for worker identity provisioning.

This new identity path has no accompanying tests. Cover resource creation and repeat reconciliation. Cover the injected ServiceAccount, audience, token expiry, read-only mount, and environment values.

As per coding guidelines, "Code changes must include tests."

…s for MiniService instances

Implements SDD v0.3 for the NVCA side of delegated worker tokens.

Worker identity registration: MiniService instance status updates now carry
workerAuth {sub, namespace, saUid, workerIdentifiers} while the instance is
Started/Running, so ICMS can authorize the worker as soon as it starts. The
identifier set is built by ownership, never by ServiceAccount name or label:
only the NVCA-authored utils pod (infra annotation, worker SA) is registered,
so a workload pod that binds the SA is never registered.

Identity objects: the utils pod and the worker ServiceAccount disable the
default token automount so only the audience-bound projected token is present.
The worker Role and RoleBinding are reconciled on every pass (Role reset to no
rules, RoleBinding to the single worker subject) instead of tolerating a
pre-existing object of the same name. Identity objects carry the MiniService
label and the NVCA infra annotation.

Workload guard: Kubernetes RBAC authorizes the creator of a Pod, not the
ServiceAccount it runs as, so REQ-220 is enforced by validation instead. The
shared pkg/miniservice guard rejects pod templates that use the exact
"nvcf-worker" SA or the legacy "nvcf-worker-" prefix across Pod, Deployment,
ReplicaSet, StatefulSet, DaemonSet, Job and CronJob, rejects chart-rendered
ServiceAccount/Role/RoleBinding objects named "nvcf-worker" or binding the
worker SA, and rejects workload objects carrying the NVCA infra annotation. The
reconciler applies the guard before applying or updating workload objects
(independent of HelmRBACEnforcement) and the admission webhook applies the same
rule as defense in depth; the webhook configuration now also covers ReplicaSets
and DaemonSets.

Also removes the stale pkg/nvca worker_identity.go Bazel source entry left by
the container-path removal.
