…Map data A config-update reset puts a node's entry back at (config, in_progress), which is indistinguishable from the run an older config Job did. If that Job's completion was still in flight, it was recorded as the new run's, and the node finished on the old data with no diff left to retry. Package pods read each key once at start, so nothing corrects it afterwards. Stamp a config-stage Job with a hash of the ConfigMap data it mounts at creation. When recording a completion, compare it with the live ConfigMap; on a mismatch, delete the Job instead so the stage re-runs on current data. Jobs without the stamp, and Jobs whose ConfigMap is gone, record as before. Follow-up to the unrecorded-Job clearing in #788; part of #776.

Explanation
The title names the main change: config-stage Jobs that ran on replaced ConfigMap data are no longer recorded as completed. The changeset adds a config-hash stamp on Jobs, a live ConfigMap comparison before recording, and foreground deletion on mismatch, which matches the title's intent. The title is concise, specific, and follows the conventional-commit style with a clear scope.

Explanation
The description states the problem (an in-flight config Job completion recorded onto a reset node entry) and lists the change: the config-hash stamp, the live ConfigMap comparison, foreground deletion on mismatch, shared helpers, and design-doc updates. It also gives the rationale for a content hash, the residual window, testing results, and what was not run. It is directly related to the changeset.

Describe the recorded attempt count accurately.
The count does not always equal the Job’s failed-pod count. For non-interrupt stages, admission-rejected pods are subtracted, so two rejected attempts record zero restarts. Interrupt Jobs are different: completion records the raw job.Status.Failed count, while in-flight interrupt restarts are tracked by the Pod watch and preserved in the entry. Update the design document.

- The recorded attempt count now comes from the Job’s failed-pod count — a user-visible improvement over today’s usually-zero restart count. + For non-interrupt stages, the recorded attempt count is the Job’s failed-pod count minus pods rejected at admission. Interrupt completion records the raw Job failed-pod count; in-flight interrupt restarts remain tracked by the Pod watch.

Retry a failed reset after the ConfigMap update.
If a Job records completion after the initial reset and restartConfigStage then fails, the old-data completion remains. The ConfigMap has already been updated, so the next pass sees no data diff and does not retry this rewrite. Persist pending resets or arrange a retry path that does not depend on detecting the original diff.

The type of the cache is configurable using the `configMapAndSecretChangeDetectionStrategy` field in the KubeletConfiguration struct. ... A container using a ConfigMap as a subPath volume mount will not receive ConfigMap updates. 1. Inside a container command and args 2. Environment variables for a container 3. Add a file in read-only volume, for the application to read 4. Write code to run inside the Pod that uses the Kubernetes API to read a ConfigMap These different methods lend themselves to different ways of modeling the data being consumed. For the first three methods, the kubelet uses the data from the ConfigMap when it launches container(s) for a Pod. The fourth method means you have to write code to read the ConfigMap and its data. However, because you're using the Kubernetes API directly, your application can subscribe to get updates whenever the ConfigMap changes, and react when that happens. By accessing the Kubernetes API directly, this technique also lets you access a ConfigMap in a different namespace. Here's an example Pod that uses values from `game-demo` to configure a Pod: `configmap/configure-pod.yaml` Image: Copy configmap/configure-pod.yaml to clipboard 4. Modify your image or command line so that the program looks for files in that directory. Each key in the ConfigMap `data` map becomes the filename under `mountPath`. This is an example of a Pod that mounts a ConfigMap in a volume: `apiVersion: v1 kind: Pod metadata: name: mypod spec: containers: - name: mypod image: redis volumeMounts: - name: foo mountPath: "/etc/foo" readOnly: true volumes: - name: foo configMap: name: myconfigmap ` Each ConfigMap you want to use needs to be referred to in `.spec.volumes`. If there are multiple containers in the Pod, then each container needs its own `volumeMounts` block, but only one `.spec.volumes` is needed per ConfigMap. #### Mounted ConfigMaps are updated automatically When a ConfigMap currently consumed in a volume is updated, projected keys are eventually updated as well. The kubelet checks whether the mounted ConfigMap is fresh on every periodic sync. However, the kubelet uses its local cache for getting the current value of the ConfigMap. The type of the cache is configurable using the `configMapAndSecretChangeDetectionStrategy` field in the KubeletConfiguration struct. A ConfigMap can be either propagated by watch (default), ttl-based, or by redirecting all requests directly to the API server. As a result, the total delay from the moment when the ConfigMap is updated to the moment when new keys are projected to the Pod can be as long as the kubelet sync period + cache propagation delay, where the cache propagation delay depends on the chosen cache type (it equals to watch propagation delay, ttl of cache, or zero correspondingly). ConfigMaps consumed as environment variables are not updated automatically and require a pod restart. #### Note: A container using a ConfigMap as a subPath volume mount will not receive ConfigMap updates. ### Using Configmaps as environment variables To use a Configmap in an environment variable in a Pod: </excerpt> </source> <source kind="search"> <title>Configure a Pod to Use a ConfigMap | Kubernetes</title> <location>https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-pod-configmap/</location> <excerpt>citeturn0search0 [wordlim: 200] Crawled: today; `kubectl create -f https://kubernetes.io/examples/configmap/configmap-multikeys.yaml ... As a result, the total delay from the moment when the ConfigMap is updated to the moment when new keys are projected to the pod can be as long as kubelet sync period (1 minute by default) + TTL of ConfigMaps cache (1 minute by default) in kubelet. ... A container using a ConfigMap as a subPath volume will not receive ConfigMap updates. ### Optional references A ConfigMap reference may be marked optional. If the ConfigMap is non-existent, the mounted volume will be empty. If the ConfigMap exists, but the referenced key is non-existent, the path will be absent beneath the mount point. See Optional ConfigMaps for more details. ### Mounted ConfigMaps are updated automatically When a mounted ConfigMap is updated, the projected content is eventually updated too. This applies in the case where an optionally referenced ConfigMap comes into existence after a pod has started. Kubelet checks whether the mounted ConfigMap is fresh on every periodic sync. However, it uses its local TTL-based cache for getting the current value of the ConfigMap. As a result, the total delay from the moment when the ConfigMap is updated to the moment when new keys are projected to the pod can be as long as kubelet sync period (1 minute by default) + TTL of ConfigMaps cache (1 minute by default) in kubelet. You can trigger an immediate refresh by updating one of the pod's annotations. #### Note: A container using a ConfigMap as a subPath volume will not receive ConfigMap updates. </excerpt> </source> <source kind="search"> <title>Configuration | Kubernetes</title> <location>https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/</location> <excerpt>citeturn0search2 [wordlim: 200] Crawled: today; Kubernetes provides two main API kinds that you can use to store configuration, ready for a Pod (or other component) to load and use: ConfigMap, and Secret. ... The kubelet then reads from that volume before starting the app container. # Configuration Configuration mechanisms within Kubernetes. Kubernetes provides ways to separate configuration from code. This is a common practice that aligns with DevOps as a practice, and with cloud native architecture. If you have a container image that allows separate configuration, you can deploy the same application code in different contexts. For example, you can run tests against the built image, and then run that exact same image in a production context. Doing that gives you better confidence in your testing, compared with if you deployed the application one way for tests and a different way in production. To learn about configuring the `kubectl` command-line tool, read configure access to multiple clusters. ## Kubernetes configuration-related APIs Kubernetes provides two main API kinds that you can use to store configuration, ready for a Pod (or other component) to load and use: ConfigMap, and Secret. The special-use CertificateSigningRequest and ClusterTrustBundle API kinds also hold configuration data that's relevant to some specific cases, such as TLS configuration. All of these configuration mechanisms, even for certificates, are designed so that configuration can be reused and shared across multiple Pods. You typically don't have to write the configuration out once per Pod, and you should design applications where possible so that they can work with shared configuration. To learn about using configuration in your applications, read inject data into applications. ### ConfigMaps A ConfigMap is an API object used to store non-confidential data in key-value pairs. Pods can consume ConfigMaps as environment variables, command-line arguments, or as configuration files in a volume. A ConfigMap allows you to decouple environment-specific configuration from your container images, so that your applications are easily portable. ### Secrets A Secret is an object that contains an amount of confidential data, such as a password, a token, or a key. Secrets are similar to ConfigMaps but are specifically intended to hold confidential data. Unlike sidecars, init containers complete before the Pod's main (application) containers start up, so the configuration only gets set once. You have two main options for configuration using init containers: #### Configuration via the filesystem With this option, the init container fetches configuration and writes the configuration to a file, or several files, typically to a Pod-local volume. #### Configuration via environment variables Feature state: Beta since Kubernetes v1.35; enabled by default This is done using a local volume, but only the init container mounts that volume. The kubelet then reads from that volume before starting the app container. Read Define Environment Variable Values Using An Init Container to learn more. ## Cluster configuration This section of the documentation is about configuration. However, if you are doing platform-level or cluster-level configuration, read the cluster administration pages and look through the list of cluster administration tasks. ## What's next The following links are all relevant to the overall idea of configuration and Kubernetes: * Configure Pods and Containers * Inject Data Into Applications * Policies, another form of configuration * Management of Kubernetes Objects Using Configuration Files, which is about Kubernetes manifests * Kubernetes Object Management is also about object management / configuration * Configure Redis Using A ConfigMap (a tutorial) * Updating Configuration via a ConfigMap (another tutorial) and you can review the list of configuration file formats in the reference …[truncated]</excerpt> </source> <source kind="search"> <title>Updating Configuration via a ConfigMap | Kubernetes</title> <location>https://kubernetes.io/docs/tutorials/configuration/updating-configuration-via-a-configmap/</location> <excerpt>citeturn0search3 [wordlim: 200] Crawled: today; If you do not already have a cluster, you can create one by using minikube or you can use one of these Kubernetes playgrounds: ... * Update configuration via a ConfigMap mounted as a Volume ... `kubectl get pods --selector=app.kubernetes.io/name=immutable-configmap-volume # Updating Configuration via a ConfigMap This page provides a step-by-step example of updating configuration within a Pod via a ConfigMap and builds upon the Configure a Pod to Use a ConfigMap task.

It is recommended to run this tutorial on a cluster with at least two nodes that are not acting as control plane hosts.

Bind the hash to the data mounted by the Job.
ApplyPackage hashes an uncached apiserver read, but the config Job mounts each key through SubPath from a mutable ConfigMap name. Kubelet may use cached data when the new Pod starts, and SubPath mounts do not receive later ConfigMap updates. The Job can therefore run with old data while configSuperseded reads the new data, sees the stamped hash match, and records completion.
Use a revision-pinned ConfigMap in the Job volume, or verify the hash of the mounted files before recording completion. A hash annotation alone does not bind the Job to the mounted revision.

Summary
Follow-up to #788 (CodeRabbit's "prevent an in-flight old completion from recording onto the reset state", which was deferred as a heavy lift). Part of #776.
A config-update reset puts a node's entry back at (
config,in_progress). That is indistinguishable from the run an older config Job did, so if that Job's completion was still in flight (or its Job object was still unrecorded)JobReconcilerrecorded it as the new run's. The node then finished on the old ConfigMap, and the ConfigMap diff was already consumed, so nothing retried. Package pods read each key once at start (subPath mounts), so nothing corrects it afterwards.Change
ApplyPackagestamps a config-stage Job withnodewright.nvidia.com/config-hash: a hash of the live ConfigMap data the pod will mount (sorted keys, length-prefixed).JobReconciler.handleCompleteJobcompares the stamp with the live ConfigMap before recording. On a mismatch it foreground-deletes the Job instead, and the stage is re-created from the entry against the current data.packageConfigMapName,uncachedReader) used by the Job builder, the stamp and the check, so the check cannot drift off the volume name.Why a content hash
metadata.generationis already a Job label, but any spec edit bumps it, so it cannot separate "config data changed" from an unrelated edit. The hash is taken from the live ConfigMap, not the spec: the pod mounts the live one, and the spec can be ahead of it while the gate is closed (comparing against the spec would reject valid completions until the gate opens).Residual window
HandleConfigUpdatessaves the reset node state before it updates the ConfigMap, and a node already at (config,in_progress) is unchanged by that reset, so nothing is written for it. A completionJobReconcilerrecorded after the pass read the node and before the ConfigMap landed would stand on the old data: the stamp matched when it was recorded, and the diff is then consumed.Once the ConfigMap is replaced,
restartConfigStagerewrites each reset node's entry to (config,in_progress) from a fresh (uncached) read, under the optimistic lock. Anything recorded before that is overwritten, and anything after fails the hash check, so no completion on the old data survives. An entry that is gone or atuninstall/apply/upgradeis left alone. Reordering the two writes would risk losing the diff if the node save failed, so the order stays. If the rewrite itself errors, the reconcile errors and retries, but the diff is already consumed, so that failure leaves only the narrow window described above.Testing
ginkgo ./internal/controller/: 565/565 pass;golangci-lint: 0 issues.ApplyPackagestamps the Job.restartConfigStagerewrites an entry a concurrent writer moved on and leaves entries at apply/upgrade/uninstall or already at config in progress alone; the config-hash check and the stamp each read the ConfigMap from a separate live client while the cache still holds the old one.Related: #788, #809.
