The [ListRunnerGroup API](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reference/actions#list-self-hosted-runner-groups-for-an-organization) now add a new query parameter `visible_to_repository`.
We were doing `N+1` lookup when trying to find which runner group can be used for job from a certain repository.
- List all runner groups
- Loop through all groups to check repository access for each of them via [API](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reference/actions#list-repository-access-to-a-self-hosted-runner-group-in-an-organization)
The new query parameter `visible_to_repository` should allow us to get the runner groups with access in one call.
Limitation:
- The new query parameter is only supported in GitHub.com, which means anyone who uses ARC in GitHub Enterprise Server won't get this.
- I am working on a PR to update `go-github` library to support the new parameter, but it will take a few weeks for a newer `go-github` to be released, so in the meantime, I am duplicating the implementation in ARC as well to support the new query parameter.
I can't find any requests made by user agent `actions-runner-controller` in GitHub.com's telemetry in the past 7 days.
Turns out we only set user agent `actions-runner-controller` if we are configured to use BasicAuth which is not the case for most customers I think.
I update the code a little bit to make sure it always set `actions-runner-controller` as UserAgent for the GitHub HttpClient in ARC.
A further step would be somehow baking the ARC release version into the UserAgent as well.
There is a race condition between ARC and GitHub service about deleting runner pod.
- The ARC use REST API to find a particular runner in a pod that is not running any jobs, so it decides to delete the pod.
- A job is queued on the GitHub service side, and it sends the job to this idle runner right before ARC deletes the pod.
- The ARC delete the runner pod which cause the in-progress job to end up canceled.
To avoid this race condition, I am calling `r.unregisterRunner()` before deleting the pod.
- `r.unregisterRunner()` will return 204 to indicate the runner is deleted from the GitHub service, we should be safe to delete the pod.
- `r.unregisterRunner` will return 400 to indicate the runner is still running a job, so we will leave this runner pod as it is.
TODO: I need to do some E2E tests to force the race condition to happen.
