Bug description:
MicroK8s has a requirement for the kernel module `br_netfilter` so
that it can properly set up all networking related configurations and
get a functioning Kubernetes cluster. In Raspberry Pi, this kernel
module is part of the extra modules package and not part of main.
This leads to two issues:
- People installing MicroK8s on a fresh Raspberry Pi install get a
non-working Kubernetes cluster, and it's not a great experience having
to manually install extra kernel modules for things to work correctly.
- Currently, Ubuntu Core does not support loading external kernel
modules at all, so it is a hard blocker for running MicroK8s on Ubuntu
Core on Raspberry Pi.
As such, we want to request that the `br_netfilter` module is promoted
from extras to main, so that it is available by default on new
installs and get a better out of the box experience. Further, it will
unblock people trying out MicroK8s with Ubuntu Core on Rasbperry Pi.
Finally, it is worth noting that br_netfilter is part of the main
modules in amd64 kernels.
As far as the MicroK8s team is concerned, we would like this change to
be available primarly in LTS kernels (22.04, 20.04) but also in normal
releases (i believe 22.10 and 23.04 would be enough).
Happy to provide more details or information if needed, and test any
potential builds.
