fix: compare a prerelease image against a final-release minimum on its core - #437
melancholictheory wants to merge 2 commits into
Conversation
…s core Semver orders a prerelease below its own release, so version gating refuses the release candidates of the very version that introduced a directive. Against a 9.1.0 minimum, 9.2.0-rc1 passes the gate and 9.1.0-rc1 does not, though both builds carry the directive. The operator then drops the directive from valkey.conf and reports on the cluster that the version is too old. When the minimum names a final release, the image version is now compared on its release core. A minimum that is itself a prerelease is left alone: semver already orders the candidates of that version correctly, and a candidate earlier than the one that introduced the directive must still be refused.

VersionFromImage accepts the 9.1.0-rc1 prefix from a tag such as valkey/valkey:9.1.0-rc1unsupported, and this branch removes that prerelease before comparing it with a final minimum. The malformed tag therefore passes a 9.1.0 gate even though it is not a recognized -rcN image tag. If that tag identifies an image without the gated directive, the operator enables unsupported configuration and Valkey can fail to start; this must be fixed before merging.
Artifacts
- An authored executable script that extracts each revision into isolated Go modules and tests final, release-candidate, distro-qualified, and malformed image tags, with the takeaway that both revisions were compared at the same runtime scope.
- Executed focused Go test output using `main`'s version parser, showing the malformed RC-like tag was parsed but did not meet the final minimum before the change.
- Executed focused Go test output using commit `573d7db`, showing normal RC and RC-with-distro inputs pass as intended but the malformed RC-like tag now also meets the final minimum.

This one is a real delta, unlike the -rc case above, so I measured it rather than argued it:
base this PR
valkey/valkey:9.1.0-rc1 false true
valkey/valkey:9.1.0-rc1-alpine false true
valkey/valkey:9.1.0-rc1-trixie false true
valkey/valkey:9.1.0-rc1unsupported false true
All four parse to the same 9.1.0-rc1. imageVersionRE stops after -rcN and ignores the rest of the tag, so at the point where this branch runs, -rc1unsupported and -rc1-alpine are the same value. They move together because they are indistinguishable, and the second one is a published image: Docker Hub carries 9.1.0-rc1-alpine, 9.1.0-rc1-alpine3.23 and 9.1.0-rc1-trixie, with the same set for rc2. A tag boundary after -rcN would refuse those.
A tag like 9.1.0-rc1unsupported can name one of two things. Either it is a build of rc1, which carries the directive, and passing is the right answer. Or it names nothing, never pulls, and never reaches the rendered config. The failure described needs an image whose tag says rc1 but whose binary predates it. That is a mislabeled image, and no parser catches it from the tag.
Added 9.1.0-rc1-alpine to TestMeetsMinVersionFinalRelease in c1c0100 so the constraint is pinned in code rather than in this thread. It fails on main, passes here.

You're right; this is a real limitation of the existing parser, not a defect introduced by this change. VersionFromImage intentionally extracts the supported -rcN prefix and ignores distro suffixes, so 9.1.0-rc1-alpine and 9.1.0-rc1unsupported are indistinguishable at MeetsMinVersion. Tightening the boundary would also reject valid published suffix tags, while no tag parser can establish that a successfully pulled image's binary matches its label. The added suffix test pins the intended behavior. I withdraw the “Malformed RC tags pass” finding.

The reading of the regex is right: One row moves, and it is the one the change is for. An incomplete Whether the truncation is a defect at all is a separate question. Not much rides on it either. Happy to take the regex separately if the tag boundary is wanted. |
Valkey publishes 9.1.0-rc1-alpine and 9.1.0-rc1-trixie alongside 9.1.0-rc1. imageVersionRE reads all of them as 9.1.0-rc1 and ignores the rest of the tag, so a final-release minimum has to accept the suffixed candidate exactly as it accepts the bare one. Pin that, since a stricter tag boundary after -rcN would refuse the published images. Signed-off-by: melancholictheory <selimvhorst@gmail.com>

Related to #427, and independent of it: this holds whether
ConfigIntroducedInrecords a directive by its release candidate or by its final release.Summary
MeetsMinVersioncompares the image version to the minimum with!version.LessThan(min). Semver places a prerelease below its own release, so the gate refuses the release candidates of the very version that introduced a directive, while accepting every prerelease of a later one:9.2.0-rc1passes and9.1.0-rc1does not, out of the same comparison. A user on a release candidate loses the directive from valkey.conf and gets aConfigurationWarningsaying the version is too old, which is hard to act on when the running build does support it.Features / Behaviour Changes
When the minimum names a final release, a prerelease image is compared on its release core, so
9.1.0-rc1now meets a9.1.0minimum.A minimum that is itself a prerelease keeps the current comparison. Semver already orders the candidates of that version correctly, and a candidate earlier than the one that introduced the directive still has to be refused: against
9.1.0-rc2, the image9.1.0-rc1stays out.Nothing else moves. A version below the minimum is still refused, and an unparseable tag still fails closed.
Implementation
internal/valkey/version.go, guarded onversion.Prerelease() != "" && min.Prerelease() == "".Limitations
When the minimum is a final release, candidate-level granularity inside that release is lost. A directive added between
9.1.0-rc1and9.1.0-rc2but recorded as9.1.0would be offered to anrc1image. Recording that directive by the candidate that introduced it keeps the exact ordering, since prerelease minimums are untouched.Testing
