Expose Kubelet streamingConnectionIdleTimeout Setting

[bird-bust-battery]

What I'd like:

Hello! I would like to be able to specify a more restrictive streamingConnectionIdleTimeout value by providing it through settings.kubernetes.streaming-connection-idle-timeout, in a similar way to other settings.

Any alternatives you've considered:

Per this comment, it seems this method would be the only permanent way to change the setting.

Hello, thanks for creating this issue. I'll raise this with the Bottlerocket team to determine if we can expose this setting.

Can you please provide your use case in configuring this value?

[bird-bust-battery]

Sure, thanks @koooosh. We are looking to further mitigate the small risk of too many open idle connections causing availability issues with our clusters. We want to set the timeout to a duration lower than the default of four hours.

For our use case, we do not need the ability to disable the setting by providing a value of zero.

I see, what is the ideal value you are considering for this setting?

We're still evaluating our environments, but let's use 60 minutes as a target.
