Istio/Maistra scalability tests

To get this benchmark running:

  1. Install OCP and Ansible
  2. Login to OCP: oc login -u system:admin
  3. Install Istio: https://maistra.io/docs/getting_started/install/
    • In controlplane/basic-install set gateways.ior_enabled: true and mixer.telemetry.enabled: false
    • I suggest locating istio-system pods on the infra node (the same where the default/router resides): oc patch namespace istio-system -p '{"metadata":{"annotations":{"openshift.io/node-selector":"node-role.kubernetes.io/infra=true"}}}'
    • I had trouble with clusterrole istio-sidecar-injector-istio-system - this was not correctly created and I had to fix it manually, applying:
      apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRole
metadata:
  name: istio-sidecar-injector-istio-system
  labels:
    app: istio-sidecar-injector
    release: istio
    istio: sidecar-injector
rules:
- apiGroups: [""]
  resources: ["configmaps"]
  verbs: ["get", "list", "watch"]
- apiGroups: ["admissionregistration.k8s.io"]
  resources: ["mutatingwebhookconfigurations"]
  verbs: ["get", "list", "watch", "patch", "create" ]
  1. You might need to add the policies:
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-ingress-service-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z default -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z prometheus -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-egressgateway-service-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-citadel-service-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-ingressgateway-service-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-cleanup-old-ca-service-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-mixer-post-install-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-mixer-service-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-pilot-service-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-sidecar-injector-service-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-galley-service-account -n istio-system
    oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z istio-security-post-install-account -n istio-system
    
  2. Allow wildcard routes: oc set env dc/router ROUTER_ALLOW_WILDCARD_ROUTES=true -n default (not possible in OCP 4.1)
  3. Create hosts.* according to your system
  4. Run the setup (now everything should be automatized): ansible-playbook -i hosts.mysetup setup.yaml
  5. Start the test: ansible-playbook -i hosts.mysetup test.yaml

Hints:

  • Add LOG_LEVEL=TRACE do deploymentconfig env vars if you want mannequin to be logging on trace level
  • Add global.proxy.accessLogFile: /dev/stdout to controlplane/basic-install or modify directly configmap/istio to have access logs in istio-proxy containers.
  • Add --proxyLogLevel trace to sidecar args to get the most verbose logging from Envoy
  • Openshift router uses source balancing strategy by default. This won't work well if you're trying to scale ingress gateways - you have to edit the route and add annotation haproxy.router.openshift.io/balance: roundrobin

Deprecated info

  • There seems to be a bug in IOR (MAISTRA-356) that is not resolved in the image I use. Therefore you have to manually fix the generated route: oc get route -n istio-system -l maistra.io/generated-by=ior oc patch route -n istio-system app-gateway-xxxxx -p '{ "spec": { "port" : { "targetPort": 443 }}}'

TODO oc get deployment istio-ingressgateway -o json | jq '.spec.template.spec.containers[].resources.requests={},.spec.template.spec.containers[].args += ["--proxy-concurrency", "4"]'
