Fix operator precedence in the LeaderWorkerSet revision check

[thc1006]

What type of PR is this?

/kind bug

What this PR does / why we need it:

The lwsStsHandler.enqueue guard that should skip StatefulSet updates unless a rollout is in progress mixes || and && without parentheses:

if sts.Status.CurrentRevision == "" || sts.Status.UpdateRevision == "" &&
    sts.Status.CurrentRevision == sts.Status.UpdateRevision {
    return
}

Go binds && tighter than ||, so this parses as A || (B && C). The (B && C) term is only true when UpdateRevision == "" && CurrentRevision == UpdateRevision, which already implies CurrentRevision == "", so the whole guard collapses to if CurrentRevision == "" { return }. Every StatefulSet status update with a non-empty CurrentRevision passes the guard and enqueues a LeaderWorkerSet reconcile (after UpdatesBatchPeriod), the steady state where CurrentRevision == UpdateRevision and no rollout is happening included. Later guards drop most of these, so it is over-enqueue rather than a correctness failure.

This extracts the intended condition into revisionChanged, which returns true only when both revisions are set and differ.

Which issue(s) this PR fixes:

None filed separately; details above.

Special notes for your reviewer:

TestRevisionChanged covers the empty/equal/differing combinations; the equal-revision and update-empty cases fail against the collapsed pre-fix logic.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved StatefulSet rollout detection to respond correctly when revisions change.
  • Prevented unnecessary rollout handling when revision information is missing or unchanged.

• Tests

  • Added coverage for empty, matching, and differing revision values.

What the old condition actually did

&& binds tighter than ||, so it parsed as current == "" || (update == "" && current == update). Once current is set the second half cannot hold, so every StatefulSet update carrying a current revision was queued, not only the ones mid-rollout. Two states change here: a settled revision, where the two are equal, and an unset update revision. Both were queued and now are not.

That narrowing is safe to make in this controller because it watches Pods directly, so the reconcile that finalizes them and removes their scheduling gates does not depend on the StatefulSet event this stops sending. Create, Delete and Generic on this handler are already no-ops, so Update is the only path into it either way.

The case that pins this is at the enqueue level rather than on the helper: keeping revisionChanged and restoring the old condition leaves the helper's own cases green while the two states above fail, which is the shape a case for this bug has to have.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The reconciler now detects StatefulSet rollouts only when both revision fields are set and differ. Tests cover revision comparison and enqueue behavior.

Changes

StatefulSet revision detection

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Revision change filter and validation pkg/controller/jobs/leaderworkerset/leaderworkerset_reconciler.go, pkg/controller/jobs/leaderworkerset/leaderworkerset_reconciler_test.go	The reconciler uses revisionChanged for StatefulSet enqueue filtering. Tests cover empty, equal, and differing revisions, and verify queue behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Mergeability Score: ⚪ Minimal · up to 615b1

This is a localized correction to StatefulSet revision-change detection with focused test coverage; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

through the controller/watch path rather than calling lwsStsHandler.enqueue
directly. Exercise both changed revisions, which should enqueue the
LeaderWorkerSet reconcile request, and settled revisions, which should not
enqueue it, reusing the existing StatefulSet and queue test helpers where
applicable.
