flanneld-v0.7.1 crashes after journald restart

[bitpeng]

We use systemd to manage flanned-v0.7.1 in k8s node, one day the flanneld process exited but systemd did not restart it. We have set Restart=on-failure in systemd flanneld.service config.

Expected Behavior

Current Behavior

$ systemctl status flanneld
 flanneld.service - Flanneld overlay address etcd agent
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/flanneld.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: inactive (dead) since 二 2024-08-30 06:06:32 CST; 4 months 21 days ago
 Main PID: 204496 (code=killed, signal=PIPE)

Warning: Journal has been rotated since unit was started. Log output is incomplete or unavailable.


$ cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/flanneld.service

After in-depth check, We found the journald has restarted ,then it cause flanneld existed.

$ systemctl status systemd-journald

Possible Solution

The flanneld-v0.7.1 is developed by golang lower version that does not support go mod. I execute the command git checkout v0.7.1 but found no go-version in glide.yaml or glide.lock. And I found that some golang software writen in golang-version < go1.6 will crashes after journald restart. like: moby/moby#19728, moby/moby#22460. Is it the same bug?
