chore: deprecate acr teleport by calvin197 · Pull Request #8052 · Azure/AgentBaker

What this PR does / why we need it:
Project Teleport was a private preview feature (Feb 2021) that accelerated container image pulls by SMB-mounting pre-expanded layers from ACR via a client daemon (teleportd). It never reached GA and the ACR team has already removedthe server-side /mount API, making the feature fully non-functional. This PR removes all dead Teleport code from AgentBaker:

Delete teleportd.service systemd unit file
Delete teleport_config.proto and generated teleport_config.pb.go
Remove teleport_config field from aks-node-controller config.proto (reserved field 10 + name)
Remove downloadTeleportdPlugin(), installTeleportdPlugin(), and ensureTeleportd() from CSE scripts
Remove TELEPORT_ENABLED and TELEPORTD_PLUGIN_DOWNLOAD_URL environment variables from CSE cmd
Remove error codes ERR_TELEPORTD_DOWNLOAD_ERR (150) and ERR_TELEPORTD_INSTALL_ERR (151)
Remove teleportd from cloud-init binary list
Remove EnableACRTeleportPlugin and TeleportdPluginURL from Go data models
Remove TeleportEnabled template function and all snapshotter = "teleportd" containerd config blocks from baker.go and aks-node-controller containerd templates
Remove teleport parameter passing from params.go and env var mappings from aks-node-controller parser
Remove teleport variables, file provisioners, and env vars from 9 Packer JSON files and packer_source.sh
Remove all associated test cases and regenerate snapshot test data

What this PR does / why we need it:

Remove the teleportd systemd service unit file, the TeleportConfig proto definition and its generated Go code. In config.proto, remove the teleport_config import and field 10, replacing it with a reserved declaration to prevent future field number reuse. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Remove downloadTeleportdPlugin() and installTeleportdPlugin() functions and their constants from cse_install.sh. Remove ERR_TELEPORTD_DOWNLOAD_ERR (150) and ERR_TELEPORTD_INSTALL_ERR (151) error codes from cse_helpers.sh. Remove ensureTeleportd() function and its conditional call from cse_config.sh. Remove installTeleportdPlugin conditional call from cse_main.sh. Remove TELEPORTD_PLUGIN_DOWNLOAD_URL and TELEPORT_ENABLED from cse_cmd.sh. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Remove teleportd from the binary list in nodecustomdata.yml. Remove EnableACRTeleportPlugin and TeleportdPluginURL struct fields from types.go. Remove teleportdPluginURL parameter passing from params.go. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Remove the TeleportEnabled template function and all teleportd snapshotter blocks from the containerd config templates in baker.go. This includes removing snapshotter = "teleportd" settings and [proxy_plugins.teleportd] sections from all four containerd config template variants (v1, v2, v1-no-gpu, v2-no-gpu). All other snapshotter configurations (overlaybd, stargz, kata) are preserved. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Remove the AKSUbuntu2404+Teleport test entry from baker_test.go and its associated testdata directory. Delete the AKSUbuntu1804+Containerd+ Teleport testdata directory. Remove teleportd constants from the removeComments test data in utils_test.go. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Remove TELEPORTD_PLUGIN_DOWNLOAD_URL and TELEPORT_ENABLED environment variable mappings from the aks-node-controller parser. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Remove teleportd_plugin_download_url variable, teleportd.service file provisioner, and TELEPORTD_PLUGIN_DOWNLOAD_URL environment variable from all 9 Packer JSON build configs. Remove TELED_SRC/TELED_DEST lines and cpAndMode call from packer_source.sh. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Run make generate and make proto-generate to regenerate all snapshot test data and protobuf generated Go code after teleport removal. Also fix discovered teleport references in: - aks-node-controller/parser/templates/containerd.toml.gtpl - aks-node-controller/parser/templates/containerd_no_GPU.toml.gtpl - aks-node-controller/proto/README.md - aks-node-controller/proto/aksnodeconfig/v1/config.proto (add reserved name "teleport_config" for buf compatibility) All tests pass, build is green.
