The e2e-gcp job's cluster profile leases from more than one GCP project and they are not equivalently permissioned. Measured on 2026-09-15 with testIamPermissions: in openshift-gce-devel-ci-3 the cluster-profile account holds thirteen of the fifteen permissions the estate needs and is denied networkconnectivity.hubs.create and networkconnectivity.hubs.delete. It can list hubs and spokes, so the denial is narrow rather than a missing NCC role. Learning a role one PERMISSION_DENIED per run costs a cluster install per permission, and a run that got no further than the first resource could say nothing about whether anything else was missing. So ask for the whole list at once, before anything is built, and print the answer whether or not it passes -- a green run that names what it was allowed to do means something, where one that merely failed to fail does not. testIamPermissions rather than a policy read: get-iam-policy needs resourcemanager.projects.getIamPolicy, which an account can itself be denied, and answers in roles that would have to be expanded into permissions here. This needs no permission of its own and answers in the same vocabulary the denials use. It goes over REST because gcloud has no surface for it on a project -- checked against 565.0.0, where `gcloud projects test-iam-permissions` is not a command and `gcloud iam list-testable-permissions` answers what may be granted on the resource rather than what the caller holds. curl is already required by ensure-cli.sh. The answer is matched as whole quoted names. The closing quote is what stops compute.routers.get reading as held because compute.routers.getIamPolicy is. hack/gcp/ci.sh is deliberately standalone rather than built on hack/lib/ci.sh, which is the AWS bootstrap: reusing it would mean refactoring the AWS path to add a GCP preflight. The two should be folded together when the estate scripts and the e2e suite land on top of this. Verified against a live cluster in openshift-qe: all fifteen reported granted and the script exited 0, which also confirms every permission name is one GCP recognises.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAdds GCP CI support through credential and kubeconfig bootstrap, isolated gcloud configuration, and Google Cloud CLI installation. Adds shared helpers that extract cluster facts and validate required GCP IAM permissions through the Cloud Resource Manager API. Adds a GCP end-to-end entrypoint that validates the cluster and platform before checking estate permissions. Adds tests for query handling, cluster facts, permission discovery, enforcement, and the estate permission list. Priority: ⬇️ Low Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The GCP job should authenticate its downloaded CLI before execution and ensure bootstrap failures clean up temporary state before this is merged. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 15✅ Passed checks (15 passed)

In `@hack/ci-e2e-gcp.sh`:
- Around line 32-33: Move the ci_remove_gcp_workdir EXIT trap registration
before calling ci_gcp_bootstrap, so failures during bootstrap also clean up the
initialized ci_workdir. Keep the existing cleanup handler and bootstrap behavior
unchanged.
In `@hack/gcp/ensure-cli.sh`:
- Around line 85-88: Update the archive download flow around curl and tar in
ensure-cli.sh to use a pinned Google Cloud CLI release instead of the floating
channel URL, then verify the downloaded archive against its published SHA-256
checksum before extraction or execution. Preserve the existing failure behavior
by returning nonzero when download or checksum validation fails.

It is worth looking at what the run cost. The preflight finished 42 seconds after the install step, because it creates nothing and skips the frr-k8s wait it does not need. The same denial on #124 burned fifteen minutes of Ginkgo timeout and reported one The permission gap itself is being chased separately in openshift/release#85216 and in the thread on #124. This PR does not fix it and does not try to; it makes the failure legible and fast, and it will report the same table in green once the grant lands. |

PERMISSION_DENIEDper run costs a cluster install per permission, and a run that got no further than its first resource could say nothing about whether anything else was missing.

A green run that names what it was allowed to do means something; one that merely failed to fail does not.hack/ci-e2e-gcp.shis what the job'steststep already runs, so this fills in an entry point that does not exist on main yet. It creates nothing and removes nothing, so it needs no teardown half and no signal handling. The estate scripts and the Ginkgo suite land on top of it in #124, which is where the rest of this work is.testIamPermissionsrather than a policy read:get-iam-policyneedsresourcemanager.projects.getIamPolicy, which an account can itself be denied, and answers in roles that would then have to be expanded into permissions here.

That file is the AWS bootstrap: it sourceshack/aws/lib.shand itsci_bootstrapinstalls the aws CLI, so reusing it would mean refactoring the AWS path in order to add a GCP preflight. The kubeconfig and workdir handling is duplicated as a result, about a dozen lines, and the two should be folded together when the rest of the GCP job lands and the split is worth doing.Test plan
Seventeen new cases in
hack/lib-test.sh, whichmake test-scriptsruns. They were written first and failed for the right reason before the library existed; the suite is now 96 passing, up from 79. They cover the probe returning the held subset, exact whole-name matching socompute.routers.getdoes not read as held becausecompute.routers.getIamPolicyis, holding nothing being a different outcome from being unable to ask, and the report naming every denial rather than the first.Run for real against a live cluster in
openshift-qe, where it reported all fifteen granted and exited 0. That is also what confirms every permission name is one GCP recognises, since an unrecognised one comes back asINVALID_ARGUMENTrather than as "not held":The denial path was exercised against a stubbed response and reports both missing permissions and exits 1 without creating anything.
