Subject: [PATCH ha-manager v2 4/7] manager: apply negative resource affinity before get_node_affinity
Date: Fri,  6 Nov 2026 10:56:47 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106095650.72865-5-d.kral@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261106095650.72865-1-d.kral@proxmox.com>

When selecting possible HA resource node placements, get_node_affinity()
in select_service_node() and get_resource_migration_candidates() is
responsible to determine the highest node priority class with at least
one available node and the allowed set from an input node set, which
must only contain available nodes to the specific HA resource.

A necessary condition for a node to be considered as available to an HA
resource is whether the node is in 'online' state (i.e., not 'unknown',
'maintenance', 'fence', nor 'gone').

However, negative resource affinity rules introduced a new condition,
where nodes become unavailable to HA resources: another HA resource,
with which the HA resource must not share the node with, is already
running on the node.

Currently, the negative resource affinity rules are applied on the
highest node priority class selected by get_node_affinity(). This can
result in an empty set if all the remaining nodes in the highest node
priority class cannot be selected because of negative resource affinity
constraints.

Therefore, apply the negative resource affinity rules on the available
node set already, so get_node_affinity() will only select node priority
classes, which meet both conditions mentioned above.

It should be noted that the HA stack currently does not allow an HA
resource to be referenced in both resource affinity rules and explicit
multi-priority node affinity rules. However, non-strict node affinity
rules implicitly create multi-priority node affinity rules, because
there the member nodes are in the highest node priority class, while the
non-member nodes are in the least node priority class.

As seen in "test-resource-affinity-with-node-affinity-strict-negative3",
this makes the HA Manager move HA resources away from their preferred
node, if an HA resource, that it must not share the node with, starts
there. This is valid with the semantics of non-strict node affinity
rules. Nonetheless, handling negative affinity rules in these scenarios
should be improved in the future, e.g., by moving the starting HA
resource to another available node in request_start already.

changes since v1:
- move this patch up first
- instead of looping through the node priority classes and effectively
  letting apply_negative_resource_affinity() decide the node priority
  class itself, remove them in $online_nodes already beforehand; this
  results in the same behavior and is easier to read and think about
- adapt comment accordingly
