Summary

  • allocate VPC IPv6 GUA /56 prefixes from Regional IPAM pools
  • create IPv4 and IPv6 VPC resource-planning pools in the IPAM administrator account
  • support adopting pre-created planning pools through externalName
  • inherit the required AwsService and PublicIpSource attributes for Amazon-provided IPv6 GUA pools
  • provision the workload VPC's exact /16 and /56 into the planning pools with VPCIpamPoolCidr
  • allocate workload subnets directly from the observed planning pool IDs
  • keep workload VPC/subnet resources and IPAM-admin planning resources on separate ProviderConfigs
  • expose observed GUA CIDRs and planning pool IDs in Network status
  • add deletion-order Usages for planning CIDRs, pools, subnets, and the VPC
  • repair namespaced observed fixtures and the current local Crossplane validation command

The address hierarchy is Regional IPv4 pool → VPC /16 → planning pool /16 → subnet /20 or /24, and Regional GUA /52 → VPC /56 → planning pool /56 → subnet /64.

Reconciliation behavior

  1. Create the workload VPC from the shared Regional pools.
  2. After the VPC ID and owner exist, create or adopt its planning pools from the IPAM administrator account.
  3. Provision the observed VPC CIDRs into the planning pools.
  4. Share the planning pools to the workload account or OU through RAM.
  5. After the provisioning resource IDs exist, create subnets from those pools.

Dependent resources gate on observed IDs, not transient readiness, so a readiness blip cannot un-render live subnets. Usage resources remain readiness-gated.

The RAM share is managed by the existing Foundation/RAMShare APIs and is not implemented inside this Network XR.

Verification

  • make render:all passed for all examples and four IPAM reconciliation stages
  • make validate:all passed for all 10 variants with zero missing schemas and zero failures
  • existing make test suite started locally; GitHub CI is authoritative for the latest commit
  • local package is healthy in the bootstrap cluster
  • live Network is Ready=True and Synced=True
  • both planning pools and both VPCIpamPoolCidr resources are Ready=True and Synced=True
  • the Foundation-managed, NonProduction-scoped RAM share is Ready=True
  • all six NonProduction subnets are Ready=True with IPAM-assigned IPv4 CIDRs and IPv6 /64s

Current provider limitation

crossplane-contrib/provider-aws-ec2:v2.7.0 cannot create a planning pool sourced from a VPC in another account because its vendored Upbound Terraform AWS fork still performs an invalid DescribeVpcs call from the IPAM administrator account. HashiCorp fixed this in terraform-provider-aws#46483, released in v6.56.0.

The live bootstrap used a one-time AWS CLI create followed by declarative Crossplane adoption through externalName. The pools are fully managed after adoption; no OpenTofu or provider fork is involved. The provider packaging gap remains tracked in tasks/provider-aws-ipam-resource-planning-cross-account.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The network API and render pipeline now support IPv6 GUA allocation and automatic IPv4/IPv6 resource-planning pools. Status output, examples, validation targets, render tests, and observed-resource fixtures reflect the new allocation flow.

Changes

IPAM network allocation

Layer / File(s) Summary
IPAM contracts and configuration
apis/networks/definition.yaml, README.md, examples/networks/with-ipam.yaml
The API, documentation, and example define IPv6 GUA allocation, administrator provider configuration, IPv4/IPv6 planning pools, and subnet pool settings.
Effective state and IPAM observation
functions/render/000-state-init.yaml.gotmpl, functions/render/001-state-observed-vpc.yaml.gotmpl, functions/render/0025-state-observed-ipam-planning.yaml.gotmpl, functions/render/005-state-network.yaml.gotmpl
The render state applies new defaults, records the VPC owner, observes planning pools and CIDRs, and prioritizes GUA over ULA and Amazon-provided IPv6 allocation.
Planning pool and CIDR resources
functions/render/20-ipam-planning-pools.yaml.gotmpl, functions/render/21-ipam-planning-cidrs.yaml.gotmpl
The templates create IPv4 and IPv6 planning pools, provision VPC CIDRs, and render deletion-order protections.
VPC and subnet IPAM allocation
functions/render/10-vpc.yaml.gotmpl, functions/render/007-state-network-subnets.yaml.gotmpl, functions/render/50-subnets.yaml.gotmpl
VPCs and subnets use the configured IPAM pools and netmask lengths. Subnets wait until required planning pools and CIDRs are ready.
Status, validation, and test fixtures
functions/render/009-state-status.yaml.gotmpl, functions/render/999-status.yaml.gotmpl, tests/test-render/main.k, Makefile, examples/test/mocks/observed-resources/with-ipam/*
Status exposes GUA CIDRs and planning pool IDs. Tests and fixtures cover IPv4/IPv6 planning resources, namespaced resources, and pool-backed subnet output.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 34a2e

The PR adds cross-account IPAM planning pools and direct subnet allocation, but the recommended example cannot currently reconcile with the stated provider, and the build targets may report success after failed render or validation jobs. A teardown-safety concern also remains, so the change is not merge-ready until these issues are fixed or explicitly accepted.

Make the recommended example executable with the current provider.

The example enables resourcePlanning.ipv4 and resourcePlanning.ipv6, but both externalName values are commented out. With the separate administrator ProviderConfig, this selects pool creation. The PR states that the current provider-aws EC2 package fails cross-account pool creation at DescribeVpcs, so users who apply this example cannot reach Ready.

Show adopted externalName values as the current path, or document the required pre-creation and adoption workflow before presenting this configuration.

Propagate failures from parallel render and validation jobs.

At Line [48], set -o pipefail cannot affect the direct render command. At Line [79], pipefail can mark the pipeline as failed, but the later echo "" still makes each background subshell return zero. As a result, wait can report success after a failed render or validation. Use set -euo pipefail in both subshells, or preserve the command status before printing the blank line.
