Enhancement Proposal

Managed Ingress DNS for AWS Hosted Control Planes (RFE-9235 / OCPSTRAT-3616).

Enables the HyperShift CPO to create and reconcile Route53 DNS zones for AWS hosted control planes, removing the requirement that all DNS zones be pre-created externally. Annotation-gated with no behavioral change for existing clusters.

Key changes

  • Auto-create .hypershift.local zone when not provided (aligns AWS with Azure/GCP)
  • Annotation-gated managed ingress DNS zones with in. prefix for ACME challenge delegation
  • DNSEndpoint CR creation for NS delegation via external-dns (when deployed)
  • New AWSDNSZoneStatus and AWSManagedDNSAvailable condition for observability

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added optional managed DNS support for AWS hosted control planes.
    • Automatically creates and manages local HyperShift DNS zones and, when enabled, ingress DNS zones.
    • Supports ACME DNS delegation and optional external DNS integration.
    • Displays managed zone IDs, names, nameservers, and availability status in cluster status.
    • Existing clusters retain current behavior unless managed ingress DNS is explicitly enabled.

### Change 2: Managed ingress DNS zones (annotation-gated)

When the annotation `hypershift.openshift.io/managed-ingress-dns: "true"` is set on the HostedCluster, the CPO creates and reconciles public and private Route53 ingress zones in the customer's AWS account. The ingress zones use an `in.` prefix on the cluster domain (`in.{baseDomainPrefix}.{baseDomain}`), keeping the cluster domain itself in the parent zone for ACME challenge delegation.

Note that the in. would be hardcoded - an alternative is an additional annotation to pass this through, an alternative way of hardcoding (e.g. split on the first .) or API changes.


The controller also creates an ACME DNS01 challenge delegation CNAME record in the public ingress zone, enabling service-side certificate generation for the customer-delegated zone without accessing it directly.

After zone creation, if external-dns is deployed on the Management Cluster, the controller creates a `DNSEndpoint` CR (external-dns CRD) containing the NS delegation records for the public ingress zone. external-dns picks this up and creates the NS records in the parent zone, completing the DNS delegation chain. If external-dns is not deployed, the controller skips `DNSEndpoint` creation and the consuming platform is responsible for NS delegation using the nameservers reported in HostedCluster status.

In the alternatives section, I'm mentioning we could also have the delegation piece done by the cluster lifecycle component (e.g. CS / HyperFleet...). However, if there is no strong objection I would prefer to let CPO manage things fully via external-dns.

Expand the test plan around failure and compatibility paths.

326-327: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.

Define a stable Route53 idempotency key.

The proposal calls zone creation idempotent but does not define a stable CallerReference. A retry after a lost response can create an orphaned or duplicate zone.

Derive the value deterministically from the cluster UID and zone type. Persist it. Test the lost-response case. AWS documents CallerReference as the retry identity for CreateHostedZone. (docs.aws.amazon.com)


78-78: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.

Make external-dns support an explicit capability contract.

A deployed external-dns instance may not watch the CRD source, the CPO namespace, or NS records. It may also lack credentials for the parent zone.

Require explicit configuration for the CRD source, API version, NS in managed record types, parent-zone filtering, namespace scope, and cross-account permissions. Otherwise use the consuming-platform fallback. ExternalDNS documents these configuration requirements. (kubernetes-sigs.github.io)


106-110: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.

Do not derive DNS readiness from DNSEndpoint.status.

DNSEndpoint.status reports the observed generation. It does not prove that external-dns updated the parent Route53 records. Route53 hosted-zone creation also starts in PENDING before its NS and SOA records become available. (kubernetes-sigs.github.io)

When external-dns is absent, AWSManagedDNSAvailable becomes true before consuming-platform NS delegation. This conflicts with the instruction to gate certificate requests on that condition.

Use separate conditions, or keep the readiness condition false until Route53 and parent-zone DNS checks confirm delegation.

Also applies to: 257-259


237-245: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.

Replace the unsupported tag-based IAM scope.

Route53 does not support tag-based condition keys, so aws:ResourceTag/red-hat-managed cannot enforce the listed resource scope. CreateHostedZone also has no tag field; tagging requires a separate ChangeTagsForResource call. (docs.aws.amazon.com)

Add tag-management permissions if tags are used for discovery. Scope operations with exact hosted-zone ARNs and supported Route53 record-condition keys. Otherwise reconciliation will fail, or broad permissions may allow changes to unrelated zones.


314-320: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.

Verify the version-skew claim against the CRD schemas.

An older HostedCluster or HostedControlPlane CRD can prune status fields that are absent from its OpenAPI schema. Older typed writers can also drop fields during full-status updates. Kubernetes preserves unknown fields only when the schema explicitly enables that behavior. (kubernetes.io)

Do not rely on generic status copying without verifying served and stored schemas, conversion behavior, and full-status writes. Add a downgrade test with old CRDs and operators, or require coordinated rollout.

- Around line 355-357: The operational guidance should distinguish always-on

- Line 75: Update the private ingress Route53 zone flow described in step 4 to

preserve creation behavior.

- Around line 72-75: Update the ingress-zone naming description to use
spec.dns.baseDomainPrefix, defaulting to the HostedCluster name when omitted,

consuming platform use this value and default when creating delegation records.

Enable the HyperShift CPO to create and reconcile Route53 DNS zones
for AWS hosted control planes, removing the requirement that all DNS
