Should we also harmonize having these placeholder log messages across controllers? That we know, we expect it when certain CRD is being processed?

I would say so, like the actually reconciliation of the object happens in the r.reconcile method. That is where the log belongs.

Walkthrough

Refactoring of the BIOSVersionSet controller internal logic, including variable renaming from biosVersionSet to versionSet, switching from updateStatus to patchStatus operations, reworking ownership-based retrieval methods, replacing helper functions with new variants, and updating watch configuration to use ownership-based patterns instead of event-based predicates.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
BIOSVersionSet Controller Refactoring
internal/controller/biosversionset_controller.go
Renamed internal variables and parameters throughout reconciliation and deletion paths from biosVersionSet to versionSet. Replaced direct status updates with patch-based updates via patchStatus. Reworked ownership and retrieval logic: getOwnedBIOSVersions and getServersBySelector now accept BIOSVersionSet parameters; ensureBIOSVersionsForServers replaces explicit creation/update logic. Refactored patchBIOSVersionFromTemplate to work with BIOSVersion lists and reference versionSet.Spec.BIOSVersionTemplate. Replaced getOwnedBIOSVersionSetStatus to compute status from BIOSVersionList. Updated enqueueByServer to iterate BIOSVersionSet objects using ServerSelector. Modified SetupWithManager to use Owns watches for BIOSVersion with label-change predicates for Server. Adjusted logging messages and field names for consistency throughout.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 4 (Complex) | ⏱️ ~45 minutes

  • Status update pattern migration: Verify all status patching operations are correctly implemented and replace updateStatus calls throughout the reconciliation and deletion paths
  • Ownership and watch configuration: Ensure Owns watches for BIOSVersion and Server label-change predicates are correctly wired and will trigger appropriate reconciliation
  • Helper function reworkings: Review correctness of ensureBIOSVersionsForServers, the refactored patchBIOSVersionFromTemplate logic, and new status computation in the getOwnedBIOSVersionSetStatus replacement
  • Deletion path logic: Verify finalizer handling, status patching, and deletion ordering are correct in the reworked delete flow
  • Reference relationships: Confirm that versionSet is properly set as controller reference in BIOSVersion creation and that ownership relationships are maintained

internal/controller/biosversionset_controller.go (2)

166-173: Status computed from stale versions list.

The versions list is fetched at line 145, but ensureBIOSVersionsForServers and deleteOrphanBIOSVersions modify the cluster state before status computation at line 167. The computed status won't reflect newly created or just-deleted BIOSVersions.

While the Owns predicate will trigger another reconciliation to correct this, the patched status may briefly show incorrect counts (e.g., AvailableBIOSVersion excludes just-created versions or includes just-deleted ones).

Consider refetching versions after the create/delete operations for immediate accuracy:

Proposed fix
 	if err := r.patchBIOSVersionFromTemplate(ctx, log, &versionSet.Spec.BIOSVersionTemplate, versions); err != nil {
 		return ctrl.Result{}, fmt.Errorf("failed to patch BIOSVersion spec from template: %w", err)
 	}

+	// Refetch versions to reflect creates/deletes before computing status
+	versions, err = r.getOwnedBIOSVersions(ctx, versionSet)
+	if err != nil {
+		return ctrl.Result{}, fmt.Errorf("failed to refresh owned BIOSVersions: %w", err)
+	}
+
 	log.V(1).Info("Updating the status of BIOSVersionSet")
 	status := r.getOwnedBIOSVersionSetStatus(versions)

331-345: Comment clarification.

The comment on line 334 says "if the label has been removed", but this else-branch also handles cases where labels simply don't match the selector (not necessarily removed). Consider updating for clarity:

-		} else { // if the label has been removed
+		} else { // if the Server no longer matches the selector

The logic itself is correct—reconciling the set allows orphan BIOSVersion cleanup when a Server no longer matches.

44-51: LGTM!

The Reconcile entry point follows standard controller-runtime conventions. The variable rename to versionSet is consistent throughout the refactor.


53-58: LGTM!

Clean delegation pattern based on deletion timestamp.


60-97: LGTM!

The deletion logic correctly ensures all owned BIOSVersions reach terminal state (Completed or Failed) before removing the finalizer. The switch to patchStatus and PatchEnsureNoFinalizer aligns with best practices for conflict-free updates.


99-123: LGTM!

Clean pattern for annotation propagation with appropriate early return when no BIOSVersions exist.


183-219: LGTM!

The function correctly handles:

  • Avoiding duplicate BIOSVersion creation via the withBiosVersion map
  • Name length limits with GenerateName fallback
  • Proper owner reference setup for the Owns predicate to work

221-240: LGTM!

Good defensive handling by skipping InProgress BIOSVersions to avoid interrupting active operations.


242-265: LGTM!

Properly skips InProgress versions to avoid mid-operation template changes. The OperationResultNone filter for logging reduces noise from no-op patches.


267-283: LGTM!

Good handling of the empty string case as Pending for newly created BIOSVersions that haven't been processed yet.


285-313: LGTM!

Clean helper functions with proper use of:

  • clientutils.ListAndFilterControlledBy for ownership-based filtering
  • client.MergeFrom for conflict-free status patches

350-359: LGTM!

Good use of:

  • Owns(&metalv1alpha1.BIOSVersion{}) to trigger reconciliation on owned resource changes
  • predicate.LabelChangedPredicate{} to limit Server watches to label changes, avoiding unnecessary reconciliations on status updates
