fix(cpm): re-resolve in-cluster peer IP at profile flush (SUB-8865) - #1017
When Inspektor Gadget's KubeIPResolver misses an in-cluster peer pod during pod startup (because the initial connection races the informer pod event populating status.podIP), it emits endpoint.k8s.kind = "raw".
Previously in containerprofilemanager/v1, non-pod/svc endpoints were permanently recorded as raw IP neighbors with Type = "external" (e.g. {'type': 'external', 'ports': [TCP-3306], 'ipAddress': '10.244.0.14'}). Nothing re-evaluated this later, causing invalid NetworkNeighborhood / ContainerProfile objects and broken generated NetworkPolicy selectors for in-cluster peers.
This PR addresses the issue by:
Re-resolving raw endpoints via inventory cache: Uses k8sInventory (common.GetK8sInventoryCache(), with fallback to k8sObjectCache) at both network event ingestion (ReportNetworkEvent) and profile generation (saveContainerProfile / createNetworkNeighbor) time.
Deferring unresolved private IP peers: When a raw endpoint has a private IP (pod / service CIDR) and is not yet resolvable in inventory during an intermediate profile flush (!forceSend), it is deferred to the next flush cycle rather than immediately classified as external.
Graceful fallback: If the raw private IP cannot be resolved after the deferral period or on forced profile flushes (container termination or max sniffing time), it falls back to external IP to avoid unbounded retention.
Stripping pod template hash: Cleans up pod-template-hash from resolved peer pod selectors to ensure consistent matching.
Deduplicating neighbors: Ensures neighbors are deduplicated by neighbor.Identifier.
How to Test
Run the container profile manager test suite with race detection:
go test -v -race ./pkg/containerprofilemanager/v1/...
Validation completed locally:
All unit tests in pkg/containerprofilemanager/v1 and pkg/containerprofilemanager/v1/queue pass with the race detector.
Added comprehensive unit tests in peer_resolution_test.go covering raw pod IP resolution, cross-namespace resolution, k8sObjectCache fallback, service IP resolution, deferral on intermediate flush, subsequent resolution, external emission after deferral, immediate public IP emission, and end-to-end profile flush.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Network traffic can be matched to Kubernetes pods and services by IP, including when they become identifiable after an event is recorded.
Service traffic retains observed port details while resolution is pending; traffic can fall back to raw IP details when service information is unavailable.
Improvements
Large profiles, including those with many network ports, are split to fit size limits while preserving observations and report history.
Unresolved network events are retained for later resolution attempts, and size-pressure flushes avoid reprocessing deferred events.
When Inspektor Gadget's KubeIPResolver misses an in-cluster peer pod during
initial connection startup races, it emits endpoint.k8s.kind = 'raw'.
Previously, non-pod/svc endpoints were permanently recorded as external raw IP
neighbors, resulting in invalid NetworkNeighborhood/ContainerProfile entries and
broken generated NetworkPolicy selectors.
This fix:
1. Re-resolves raw endpoints via k8sInventory (and k8sObjectCache fallback)
at both network event reporting and profile flush time.
2. Defers raw private IP endpoints by one profile flush when not immediately
resolvable, giving the Kubernetes informer time to receive the pod status.
3. Falls back to external IP only after deferral elapses or on forced profile
saves (e.g. container termination or max sniffing time).
4. Cleans up pod template hashes on resolved pod selectors.

📝 Walkthrough
Walkthrough
The change adds Kubernetes-based resolution for network destination IPs, defers unresolved private-IP events across profile flushes, and preserves Service port snapshots. It also adds size-limited queueing and port-aware profile splitting, with direct delivery when proactive splitting cannot be admitted.

The manager provides Kubernetes inventory and object-cache access to neighbor generation. Destination IPs can resolve to pods or Services. Unresolved private-IP events and Service port snapshots can persist across flushes; matching neighbors merge distinct ports.
Size-limited profile emission and splitting pkg/containerprofilemanager/v1/monitoring.go, pkg/containerprofilemanager/v1/late_resolution_size_test.go, pkg/containerprofilemanager/v1/queue/*
Profile saving passes a size limit to the queue. The queue proactively splits eligible profiles, and the split logic partitions peers by estimated size and ports. When proactive split admission fails, the original profile or unqueued half is delivered directly.

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 76e13
The change makes network peer resolution and profile splitting more robust, and the earlier review concerns appear to be addressed with regression tests. It touches a broad profile flush and queue path, so a normal pre-merge test pass and awareness from the owners are advisable. No blocking problem was identified.
Security Architecture Review
Security architecture risk:🟡 Moderate · up to 76e13
Late resolution can turn one observed address into a namespace-wide peer selector when usable pod labels are absent. Deferred observations also survive size-triggered flushes without a retained-memory limit. Locking, retry deadlines, and delivery safeguards reduce the exposure, but these changes warrant design-level controls.
Retained concerns
Medium · security · inferred: Raw-IP promotion can replace an address-specific neighbor with an internal pod selector whose filtered labels are empty. Under Kubernetes selector semantics, that selector matches every pod in the selected namespace at the recorded ports. The empty-selector behavior predates this PR for already-identified pods, but ingestion-time and flush-time resolution newly expose previously raw observations to it. Cross-namespace selection remains constrained to the resolved namespace. Actual downstream policy handling was not verified, so enforcement broadening remains conditional.
Medium · security · inferred: Deferred observations survive pressure cleanup while the size counter is reset, and subsequent pressure saves process only fresh observations. A monitored workload producing many distinct unresolved private-IP observations can therefore accumulate retained state beyond the batch-size threshold, potentially exhausting the shared monitoring process and disrupting collection for other containers. The base cleared network observations after saves. Stable deadlines, periodic retry, and forced terminal delivery bound normal retention time, but do not bound retained bytes or cardinality within that window. Memory exhaustion was not demonstrated.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The independently influenceable inputs are traffic observations from a monitored container and Kubernetes peer metadata returned by trusted caches. Conditional selector broadening reaches pods in the resolved namespace at recorded ports, not every namespace. Retention pressure can affect other containers sharing the monitoring process. No new administrative, secret, infrastructure, or tool authority was established by the inspected paths.
Security Findings and Attack Paths
inferred — A raw observation resolving to a pod without usable labels can become a wildcard peer selector in the emitted profile. Separately, sufficiently many unique unresolved private peers can grow retained memory across pressure saves without Kubernetes administrative privileges. These are conditional source-supported attack paths; downstream policy application and process exhaustion were not demonstrated.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — Validation accepts only host or outgoing packet types and excludes source host-network events. Resolution leaves known pod and service endpoints unchanged, skips empty addresses and IPv4 localhost, and excludes host-network peer pods. The fallback IP index uses locking, UID-matched deletion, and reassignment guards; tests cover reuse and old-owner updates.
inferred — Late identity promotion depends on address ownership being appropriate for the original observation. The retained NetworkEvent has neither peer UID nor observation timestamp, and resolution reads current cache ownership. Fallback index reuse guards protect current mappings but do not establish historical ownership; the external inventory's freshness guarantees remain unverified.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
observed — Ingestion and save entrypoints share the per-container mutex. Deferral records a stable first deadline using the configured update period; termination and maximum-time saves force delivery without deferral. These controls preserve ownership and bound normal retention duration, although they do not provide a retained-memory budget.
Hardening Proposals
proposed — Require usable pod selectors before converting raw traffic into selector-based neighbors, retaining an address-specific fallback otherwise. Independently account for deferred bytes or peer cardinality and apply per-container and shared-process limits with explicit partial-collection status. Document and validate historical IP-ownership assumptions for delayed resolution.

Every raw external-IP observation that misses inventory now scans all cached pods. This also happens for duplicates because ReportNetworkEvent resolves before checking data.networks. The fallback calls GetPods() (pkg/objectcache/k8scache/k8scache.go:80–81) while withContainer holds the container mutex, adding O(pod count) work per observation and delaying other event updates for that container. Use an IP-indexed fallback lookup rather than enumerating pods on the event hot path.
Enforce size limits after late network neighbor resolution
For events still raw at ingestion, this resolution changes the emitted payload without updating the stored event or its size budget. networkNeighborIncrement charges raw peers for one port and DNS headroom, but late resolution can add large Pod selectors or multiple Service backend ports. Saving uses withContainerNoSizeUpdate, so that growth bypasses the MaxTsProfileSize split trigger. Account for the resolved payload and enforce the size limit before enqueueing, keeping newly resolved Service ports consistent with that budget. Cover raw-to-Pod and raw-to-Service transitions in size-accounting tests.
Retain raw IP observations when Service promotion fails, index fallback pod lookups, and apply the configured estimated size budget after late peer resolution using existing queue splits. Cover fallback retries, cache lifecycle, expanded Service ports, and report chain preservation.

Addressed the two additional findings in review 5413292601 in 1564663: fallback peer resolution now uses a maintained Pod IP index instead of scanning pods per observation; profiles containing late-resolved peers carry the configured estimated size budget through the existing queue splitter. Tests cover IP changes/reuse/dual-stack/concurrency, large Pod selectors, multiple named Service backend ports, snapshot stability, recursive splits, unsplittable limits, and report-chain preservation. Container profile manager/object cache tests, focused race tests, vet, full repository build, and compilation of all test packages passed.
Preserve replacement Pod IP ownership across old status updates and retain captured Service ports for deferred observations. Add regressions for primary/secondary IP reuse and EndpointSlice changes between flushes.

Each distinct port scans all ports already merged for the same peer. A batch of 4,000 distinct ports therefore needs about 8 million comparisons. Port-scan traffic can trigger this in both ingress and egress generation, while saveProfile holds the container-entry mutex through withContainerNoSizeUpdate, delaying event ingestion for that container. Keep a per-neighbor set of port names across merge calls and use it for membership checks instead of scanning the accumulated slice.
Use per-neighbor port membership sets instead of scanning merged port slices. Add a 4000-port scan benchmark preserving every observed port; measured flush time improves from approximately 14 ms to 2.8 ms.

Addressed the performance concern from review 5413610359 in 8baa483: neighbor merging uses a per-peer port-name set, removing quadratic accumulated-slice scans. The 4000-port benchmark retains every observation and improved from 14.0–14.2 ms to 2.7–2.9 ms per flush on this machine (with approximately 0.44 MB additional temporary allocation for the set). Container profile manager/queue tests, focused race tests, and vet passed. Shared inventory lifecycle was checked against the pinned dependency: Start/Stop synchronize a useCount reference count. Queue budget regression tests validate recursive splitting, preserved ports and timestamp chains, and unchanged forwarding of unsplittable/depth-limited data.

@coderabbitai Your outside-diff finding in review 5415198967 is fixed in 87499c4 (latest head 3800bc9): proactive splitting now requires SplitDepth+1 < maxSplitDepth, reserving the final level for storage rejection. A real-queue regression reproduces the issue: a valid depth-three parent is 320 protobuf bytes, while its JSON-smaller split child is 321 bytes. Tests now verify the accepted parent keeps all observations, plus HTTP 413 still uses the reserved split level, at maximum depths 1 and 4. Full queue/race tests, manager/cache integration tests, vet and full build pass. Please verify whether this addresses the specific finding.

@matthyx Yes. The fix addresses the specific finding in review 5415198967. I verified the code at head 3800bc98.
At Line 566 in pkg/containerprofilemanager/v1/queue/containerprofile_queue.go, proactive splitting requires SplitDepth+1 < qd.maxSplitDepth. This reserves the final split level.
The HTTP 413 handler still allows splitting when SplitDepth < qd.maxSplitDepth. Storage can therefore use the reserved level.
TestProactiveSplitReservesFinalDepth covers depth limits 1 and 4. It checks that storage receives the parent first, preserves all observations and the timestamp chain, and uses the final split level after HTTP 413. It also checks for zero dropped chunks and an empty queue.
I inspected the code and regression assertions. I did not rerun the tests in this sandbox.
If you found this review helpful, would you consider giving us a shout-out on X?

@coderabbitai The recent review reported no actionable comments through 76e1380. Commit 449c7e6 addresses the retained-memory concern in its architecture notes: deferred observations now have an independent incremental byte budget equal to positive MaxTsProfileSize, including Service port multiplicity. Overflow is emitted using raw-IP fallback; existing deadlines and snapshots remain stable. Pressure cleanup still touches only fresh keys, and consumed peers reclaim retained capacity.

@matthyx Yes. Commit 449c7e65, which matches the current head, addresses the specific retained-memory concern for a positive MaxTsProfileSize.
I verified these paths:
Independent budget:saveContainerProfile sets networkDeferredSizeLimit to MaxTsProfileSize. Resetting the active size counter does not reset deferred accounting.
Incremental admission:deferNetworkEvent charges each newly retained observation once. The estimate includes the event and networkNeighborIncrement, which accounts for captured Service port multiplicity.
Overflow delivery: If admission exceeds the budget, neighbor generation emits the observation through raw-IP fallback instead of retaining it.
Stable retained state: Previously admitted observations keep their deadlines and Service port snapshots.
Capacity reclamation: Cleanup releases accounting for consumed observations. Pressure cleanup still visits only active keys.
The new regression assertions cover repeated overflow for raw and Service endpoints, complete observed-port delivery on expiry or forced flush, partial reclamation, and readmission.
This is a per-container estimated-byte limit, not an exact heap limit or a shared-process limit. Nonpositive limits remain uncapped. Those qualifications do not invalidate the fix for the specific concern.
I inspected the code and test assertions. I did not rerun tests in this sandbox.
