Description

Adds destination peer identity fields to the CEL evaluation context:

  1. event.dstNamespace (string): Destination namespace resolved cluster-wide by Inspektor Gadget's kubeipresolver.
  2. event.dstPodLabels (map[string]string): Destination pod labels resolved cluster-wide, allowing selector rules to match peer identities regardless of which node the peer is scheduled on.
  3. SetServicePeerLabels / ServicePeerLabels: Global resolver hook so that when the destination is a Kubernetes Service (Kind == EndpointKindService), dstPodLabels falls back to the resolved Service selector labels.

Extracted from entlein's network selector hardening.

Testing

  • Added unit tests in pkg/utils/cel_dst_peer_test.go covering:
    • Extracting destination namespace and pod labels for Pod endpoints
    • Resolving service selector labels via ServicePeerLabels hook for Service endpoints
    • Fallback to empty map when no labels/resolver are present
  • All tests pass cleanly (go test ./pkg/utils/... ./pkg/rulemanager/cel/...).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • CEL rules can now access a destination’s namespace and labels. For service destinations, labels are resolved from the Kubernetes Service; pod destinations continue to use pod labels.
    • Service label lookups are cached for faster repeated access, with automatic refresh after a short period.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds destination namespace and label CEL fields. It adds a Kubernetes-backed resolver for service labels, including caching, and initializes that resolver with a Kubernetes client.

Changes

Destination Peer CEL Fields

Layer / File(s) Summary
Destination CEL fields and label callback
pkg/utils/cel.go, pkg/utils/cel_dst_peer_test.go
Adds dstNamespace and dstPodLabels. Service endpoints use the configured label callback; other endpoints use pod labels. Tests cover pod and service destinations, including behavior when no callback is configured.
Kubernetes resolver and initialization
pkg/rulemanager/service_resolver.go, pkg/rulemanager/rule_manager.go, cmd/main.go, pkg/rulemanager/service_resolver_test.go
Adds a cached Kubernetes Service lookup. Ordinary Services use selector labels; default/kubernetes uses metadata labels. Initialization registers the resolver, and tests cover missing Services, cache refresh, negative caching, and LRU eviction.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

95-95: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Remove the duplicate resolver initialization.

cmd/main.go Line 211 already calls InitServicePeerLabelResolver(k8sClient). CreateRuleManager calls it again here. Each call replaces the global callback with a new cache, so the first cache is discarded. The call here also runs only when runtime detection is enabled. Keep one call site.

Also, CreateRuleManager mutates package-global state as a side effect. This makes tests that create a RuleManager with a nil client clear the resolver.

Proposed fix
-	InitServicePeerLabelResolver(k8sClient)

Replace time.Sleep TTL waits with a deterministic approach.

The test sleeps for 70 ms against a 50 ms TTL. This can be flaky on loaded CI runners. expirable.LRU uses wall-clock time, so a larger margin or a polling assert.Eventually is safer.

- Around line 48-59: Update the lookup flow in the service resolver so
`GetWorkload` errors return without adding an entry to `cache`; retain the
existing selector handling and caching for successful lookups, including a nil
service. Adjust the missing-service test only if needed to preserve its intended
negative-cache behavior.
