What does this PR do?
This PR refactors the
Coordinator.UpgradeAPI to use functional options (UpgradeOpt) instead of long argument lists, and introduces apreUpgradeCallback.Specifically:
Coordinator.Upgradeto make the flow more consistent (e.g. first verifying that the coordinator is not already upgrading before continuing).All business logic changes are captured here bcdba7b (+90 -29 lines changed)
Why is it important?
Currently, upgrade actions can remain stuck in
bkgActionswhen tamper protection is enabled (see #9629). This occurs because errors returned from the Endpoint action proxying are not correctly handled, leaving stale entries behind.By moving this logic into a
preUpgradeCallback, any error from proxying is now surfaced through the coordinator’s upgrade flow, which ensures thatbkgActionsare cleaned up correctly.I am not fully satisfied with these changes — they are a pragmatic fix until we perform a larger rewrite to centralize upgrade action handling in a single place. Still, they are necessary to resolve the immediate issue of stuck upgrade actions.
Checklist

None expected - this change only affects the internal proxying of upgrade actions to Endpoint and does not alter the upgrade request API.
