背景

今天有个伙伴问 Docker 的网络故障的问题,就想着正好最近天天看 Docker 和 containerd 的代码和社区,来帮忙 debug 看看好了...

首先系统是这样的

shell
$ uname -r
6.1.0-10-amd64
shell
$ uname -a
Linux localhost 6.1.0-10-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.38-1 (2023-07-14) x86_64 GNU/Linux
shell
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Debian
Description:	Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)
Release:	12
Codename:	bookworm

在重启了 Docker 的 Systemd 服务

shell
sudo systemctl restart docker

之后发现报错了,报错的日志输出是这样的

shell
$ sudo journalctl -xeu docker.service

Dec 13 09:22:20 localhost dockerd[352906]: failed to start daemon: Error initializing network controller: Error creating default "bridge" network: Failed to Setup IP tables: Unable to enable NAT rule:  (iptables failed: iptables --wait -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s 172.17.0.0/16 ! -o docker0 -j MASQUERADE: Warning: Extension MASQUERADE revision 0 not supported, missing kernel module?
Dec 13 09:22:20 localhost dockerd[352906]: iptables v1.8.9 (nf_tables):  CHAIN_ADD failed (No such file or directory): chain POSTROUTING

单拎出来这段 iptables 的命令可以看到这个报错确实是这样的

shell
$ sudo iptables --wait -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s 172.17.0.0/16 ! -o docker0 -j MASQUERADE
iptables v1.8.9 (nf_tables):  CHAIN_ADD failed (No such file or directory): chain POSTROUTING

调查

那么,containerd 在正常运行吗

shell
$ sudo systemctl status containerd
 containerd.service - containerd container runtime
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/containerd.service; enabled; preset: enabled)

据说这个和 debian 用的 iptablesnftables 替代有关[1],如果用

shell
sudo update-alternatives --config iptables

就可以观察到现在的 iptables 模块背后的选择

shell
$ sudo update-alternatives --config iptables
There are 2 choices for the alternative iptables (providing /usr/sbin/iptables).

  Selection    Path                       Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
  0            /usr/sbin/iptables-nft      20        auto mode
  1            /usr/sbin/iptables-legacy   10        manual mode
* 2            /usr/sbin/iptables-nft      20        manual mode

Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 1
update-alternatives: using /usr/sbin/iptables-legacy to provide /usr/sbin/iptables (iptables) in manual mode

再次执行看看有没有应用生效了

shell
$ sudo update-alternatives --config iptables
There are 2 choices for the alternative iptables (providing /usr/sbin/iptables).

  Selection    Path                       Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
  0            /usr/sbin/iptables-nft      20        auto mode
* 1            /usr/sbin/iptables-legacy   10        manual mode
  2            /usr/sbin/iptables-nft      20        manual mode

然后再执行一次看看结果:

shell
$ sudo iptables --wait -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s 172.170.0/16 ! -o docker0 -j MASQUERADE
Warning: Extension MASQUERADE revision 0 not supported, missing kernel module?
iptables v1.8.9 (legacy): can't initialize iptables table `nat': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

看起来已经是 iptables legacy 了,但是出现了新的报错

shell
iptables v1.8.9 (legacy): can't initialize iptables table `nat': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)

那这个时候,内核模块正常吗?我之前确实没有检查过。

shell
$ sudo modprobe ip_tables

没有输出。

不过既然是 NAT 报错,那会是没有配置相关的转发模块吗?

shell
$ cat /boot/config-$(uname -r) | grep CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT
CONFIG_IP_NF_NAT=m

查看单独的内核模块信息

看了看 modinfo 的输出,看起来基本的模块是在的,能返回

shell
modinfo nf_nat_ipv4

查看完整的内核模块

shell
sudo ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/net/netfilter/

查看 IPv4 相关的模块

shell
sudo ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/

然后在看别人的帖子的时候看到说这个和 nf_nat_ipv4 有关,这个时候用 modprobe 观察就可以发现 nf_nat_ipv4 缺失了:

shell
$ modprobe nf_nat_ipv4
modprobe: FATAL: Module nf_nat_ipv4 not found in directory /lib/modules/6.1.0-10-amd64

修复

这下我摸不着头脑了,直到我看到一篇上古的在 2016 年的帖子给了我醍醐灌顶的一击:

Another possible problem with the same symptoms is stale kernel running - after upgrade and before reboot. This is the one I encountered just now.[2]

然后我就恍然大悟了。对啊!内核更新的时候可能会发生配置选项和路径变更,这个时候可能跑在一个过时的内核上,这个时候 Docker 和 iptables 异常都是非常正常的事情,还有可能发生别的更复杂的情况。

为了验证这个情况,通过

shell
sudo systemctl reboot

重启之后发现 Docker 已经恢复正常了:

shell
 $ sudo systemctl status docker

为了确保不会弄错,我又去修改了一下 iptables 的系统软件替换选项:

shell
$ sudo update-alternatives --config iptables
There are 2 choices for the alternative iptables (providing /usr/sbin/iptables).

  Selection    Path                       Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
  0            /usr/sbin/iptables-nft      20        auto mode
* 1            /usr/sbin/iptables-legacy   10        manual mode
  2            /usr/sbin/iptables-nft      20        manual mode

Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 2
update-alternatives: using /usr/sbin/iptables-nft to provide /usr/sbin/iptables (iptables) in manual mode

然后执行

shell
systemctl restart docker

发现 Docker 依然是正常的,这意味着之前的探索路线应该是错误了。

考虑到可能容器运行时或者 Docker API 有问题,我跑了一个很常见的 busybox 的容器并且进行了简单的网络测试:

shell
$ docker run -it --rm busybox sh
Unable to find image 'busybox:latest' locally
latest: Pulling from library/busybox

发现都是正常的了。

结论

看起来就是一个更新系统之后没有重启的乌龙 😂。

这个故事告诫我们要在重要系统更新之后重启系统,如果是云服务商自动更新的,也要记得通知客户然后重启系统,避免这样的尴尬局面 😂。
