Announcing Linkerd2 edge-20.1.3

Kevin Leimkuhler
 

Hello Linkerd fans! 🔗

This is an edge release of Linkerd! The latest stable release is stable-2.6.1.

To install this edge release, run: curl https://run.linkerd.io/install-edge | sh

This edge release is a release candidate for stable-2.7!

Full release notes:
  • CLI
    • Introduced CNI checks to confirm the CNI plugin is installed and ready; this is done through linkerd check --pre --linkerd-cni-enabled before installation and linkerd check after installation if the CNI plugin is present
    • Added support for the --as-group flag so that users can impersonate groups for Kubernetes operations (thanks @mayankshah160!)
  • Controller
    • Fixed an issue where an override of the Docker registry was not being applied to debug containers (thanks @javaducky!)
    • Added check for the Subject Alternate Name attributes to the API server when access restrictions have been enabled (thanks @javaducky!)
    • Added support for arbitrary pod labels so that users can leverage the Linkerd provided Prometheus instance to scrape for their own labels (thanks @daxmc99!)
    • Fixed an issue with CNI config parsing
  • Helm
    • Breaking change: Renamed noInitContainer parameter to cniEnabled
    • Fixed an issue with helm install where the lists of ignored inbound and outbound ports would not be reflected

As always, we're excited to hear your feedback. Please try the new release and
send questions/comments to this mailing list, and report bugs via GitHub.

Thanks!
Kevin
