The container runtime CRI-O limits the number of PIDs to 1024 by
default. When many PVCs are requested at the same time, it is possible
for the provisioner to start too many threads (or go routines) and
executing 'rbd' commands can start to fail. In case a go routine can not
get started, the process panics.
The PID limit can be changed by passing an argument to kubelet, but this
will affect all pids running on a host. Changing the parameters to
kubelet is also not a very elegant solution.
Instead, the provisioner pod can change the configuration itself. The
pod is running in privileged mode and can write to /sys/fs/cgroup where
the limit is configured.
With this change, the limit is configured to 'max', just as if there is
no limit at all. The logs of the csi-rbdplugin in the provisioner pod
will reflect the change it makes when starting the service:
$ oc -n rook-ceph logs -c csi-rbdplugin csi-rbdplugin-provisioner-0
..
I0726 13:59:19.737678 1 cephcsi.go:127] Initial PID limit is set to 1024
I0726 13:59:19.737746 1 cephcsi.go:136] Reconfigured PID limit to -1 (max)
..
It is possible to pass a different limit on the commandline of the
cephcsi executable. The following flag has been added:
--pidlimit=<int> the PID limit to configure through cgroups
This accepts special values -1 (max) and 0 (default, do not
reconfigure). Other integers will be the limit that gets configured in
cgroups.

Use Deployment with leader election instead of StatefulSet
Deployment behaves better when a node gets disconnected
from the rest of the cluster - new provisioner leader
is elected in ~15 seconds, while it may take up to
5 minutes for StatefulSet to start a new replica.

This is a part of the stateless set of commits for CephCSI.
This commit removes the dependency on config maps to store cephFS provisioned
volumes, and instead relies on RADOS based objects and keys, and required
CSI VolumeID encoding to detect the provisioned volumes.
Changes:
- Provide backward compatibility to provisioned volumes by older plugin versions (1.0.0 or older)
- Remove Create/Delete support for statically provisioned volumes (fixes#382)
- Added namespace support to RADOS OMaps and used the same to store RADOS CSI objects and keys in the CephFS metadata pool
- Added support to mention fsname for CephFS provisioning (fixes#359)
- Changed field name in CSI Identifier to 'location', to denote a pool or fscid
- Updated mounter cache to use new scheme
- Required Helm manifests are updated
- Required documentation and other manifests are updated
- Made driver option 'metadatastorage' as optional, as fresh installs do not need to specify the same
Testing done:
- Create/Mount/Delete PVC
- Create/Delete 5 PVCs
- Mount version 1.0.0 PVC
- Delete version 1.0.0 PV
- Mount Statically defined PV/PVC/Pod
- Mount Statically defined version 1.0.0 PV/PVC/Pod
- Delete Statically defined version 1.0.0 PV/PVC/Pod
- Node restart when mounted to test mountcache
- Use InstanceID other than 'default'
- RBD basic round of tests, as namespace is added to OMaps
- csitest against ceph-fs plugin
- NOTE: CephFS plugin still does not detect and address already created
volumes but of a different size
- Test not providing any value to the metadata storage parameter

currently, we have 3 docker files(cephcsi,rbd,cephfs) in the ceph-csi repo.
[commit ](85e121ebfe)
added by John to build a single image which can act as rbd or
cephfs based on the input configuration.
This PR updates the makefile and kubernetes templates to use
the unified image and also its deletes the other two dockerfiles.
