What type of PR is this?

/kind feature

What this PR does / why we need it:

This PR adds structured mutation logging to HAMi's admission webhook.

Currently, the webhook silently mutates Pods (e.g., changing schedulerName, injecting GPU annotations, updating resource limits) and only logs the final allow/deny outcome. When a user submits a Pod and it behaves unexpectedly, there is no built-in way to know what HAMi changed without manually diffing the specs.

This PR captures the JSON Patch operations automatically computed by admission.PatchResponseFromRaw and emits a structured klog.InfoS line for every changed field, answering the question: "What did HAMi change in my Pod, and why?"

Example output:

I1004 12:34:56 1 webhook.go:240] "webhook mutation" namespace="default" pod="gpu-job" uid="abc" op="replace" path="/spec/schedulerName" value="\"hami-scheduler\""

This is Phase 1 of the Webhook Observability feature (structured logging). No full Pod specs are stored or logged to avoid exposing sensitive data, only the specific paths that were mutated.

Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
#3163

Special notes for your reviewer:
The diff patch is already computed for free on line 138 (admission.PatchResponseFromRaw), so we just capture that response array and loop over it. No new JSON-diffing dependencies were required, keeping this extremely lightweight and zero-risk.

Does this PR introduce a user-facing change?:

Added structured logging to the mutating admission webhook to record exactly which Pod fields are modified during admission.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Improved diagnostic records for pod admission changes. When a request generates mutation patches, logs include each patch’s operation and path alongside the associated pod context. Requests without patches do not generate these records. These updates affect operational logging only; they do not change admission responses or application behavior.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The admission webhook now looks up original values by JSON Pointer path and logs mutation patch details before returning its response. An additional patch-logging loop at package scope makes the Go file syntactically invalid.

Changes

Webhook Mutation Logging

Layer / File(s) Summary
Log admission mutation patches
pkg/scheduler/webhook.go
The webhook decodes JSON Pointer paths to find original values. It logs each patch’s operation, path, and replacement value alongside the original value. Handle calls the logging helper before returning the response. A second logging loop at package scope makes the file syntactically invalid.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Feature

Suggested labels: enhancement

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to a23f7

The webhook source file does not compile, so the scheduler package, including the admission webhook, cannot be built or deployed as submitted. Removing the stray loop that follows the logging helper should restore the build. The intended per-field before-and-after logging is otherwise present. This change is not ready to merge until the build is fixed.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to a23f7

The intended logging exposes original and replacement field values without sensitivity filtering. Logging only mutated paths limits disclosure, but does not guarantee that their values are nonsensitive. No unauthorized disclosure is verified, and a syntax error currently prevents this revision from running.

Retained concerns

  • Low · security · inferred: The intended logger copies original request values and replacement values into informational logs without a sensitivity allowlist or redaction. Selected path values can be composite JSON, so mutation-only logging is not itself a confidentiality control. Disclosure to unauthorized readers remains unverified, and the submitted syntax error blocks runtime exposure.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The intended disclosure scope is values selected by generated patches for requests reaching the webhook’s final patch-response path. No cross-tenant reader access, cluster-wide secret access, or privilege expansion is established.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — The potential confidentiality path is submitted Pod content, a generated mutation path, serialization of the original or replacement value, and scheduler log output. Exploitation would require sensitive content at a logged path and an unauthorized log reader. Neither condition was verified, and the submitted revision cannot execute.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Original admission-request content is newly copied into the scheduler logging channel. Generated-path selection and empty-response skipping constrain what is emitted, but the helper has no sensitivity filter, redaction, or verbosity gate.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Prefer operation and path metadata by default, with explicit approval for nonsensitive value fields and redaction of composite values. Establish log-reader access and retention expectations before enabling raw-value logging.

Explanation

For #3163, logMutationPatches logs namespace, Pod, UID, operation, path, and before/after values from the original request and patch. The whole-PR diff adds no unit test for structured log output. It also leaves a for loop after the function at package scope in pkg/scheduler/webhook.go, which makes the Go file invalid.

Add a test for the structured mutation log record.

The current Handle test checks the response patch, but does not check the log identifiers or patch fields. Add assertions for namespace, pod, uid, op, path, and value.

Log mutation metadata without raw patch values. When a tenant puts confidential data in a valid container name, the Iluvatar mutator copies that name into SOL_CONTINER_NAME. The INFO log then exposes the patch value to log readers. Log only the operation and path.

Include the original field value.

patch.Value supplies the operation value, not the original field value. The linked issue requires both before and after values. Read the prior value from req.Object.Raw and log it as before.

Remove the package-scope patch loop.

logMutationPatches closes at Line 271. The second for loop starts outside any function, so Go cannot compile pkg/scheduler/webhook.go. Remove Lines 272-283; the loop inside logMutationPatches already logs the patches.
