What type of PR is this?

/kind bug

What does this PR do / why we need it:
Currently, the ArgoCD CR field (spec.tls.ca.secretName) exists and is exposed in the documentation. However, the operator's controller reconciliation logic does not actually consume this field. Instead, it relies on a hardcoded suffix pattern ({cr.name}-ca and {cr.name}-tls) to identify or generate the secrets used for internal component trust.

While the operator currently allows a workaround—exiting reconciliation early if a secret matching the hardcoded name already exists—this prevents integration with external secret managers (like cert-manager) that may require dynamic or pre-existing custom naming conventions.
This request is to fully implement the logic for spec.tls.ca.secretName (and related TLS secret fields) so that the operator actively honors user-specified secret names instead of defaulting strictly to the hardcoded naming convention.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added support for configuring a custom name for the Argo CD CA Secret through spec.tls.ca.secretName.
    • CA-related resources now consistently use the configured Secret name, or the default name when none is provided.
    • CA data is correctly propagated to the generated ConfigMap when using a custom Secret name.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Updated managed CA certificate values when missing or stale while preserving unrelated ConfigMap data.
    • Prevented conflicting names between the CA Secret and cluster TLS Secret.
    • Improved image-pull-secret handling on OpenShift.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The controller now supports custom CA Secret names from spec.tls.ca.secretName. Secret creation, lookup, collision handling, and CA ConfigMap reconciliation use the configured name or the default argocd-ca name. Managed certificate keys refresh when stale.

Changes

CA Secret naming and reconciliation

Layer / File(s) Summary
CA Secret name resolution and Secret reconciliation
controllers/argocd/configmap.go, controllers/argocd/secret.go, controllers/argocd/*_test.go
The controller resolves the configured or default CA Secret name, creates TLS-type Secrets, rejects collisions with the managed TLS Secret, preserves existing custom Secrets, skips OpenShift image-pull-secret propagation, and returns non-nil empty image-pull-secret references.
CA ConfigMap synchronization
controllers/argocd/configmap.go, controllers/argocd/configmap_test.go
CA ConfigMap reconciliation reads the selected Secret and updates stale or missing tls.crt and ca.crt values while preserving unrelated keys. Tests cover matching values, stale values, custom names, and Secret name rotation.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8e7c2

Custom CA Secret names are supported and CA ConfigMap data is synchronized, but changing the selected CA Secret may leave existing server TLS certificates using the prior CA. Resolve this before merge to avoid TLS trust failures after CA rotation.

2260-2264: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Exercise the reconciliation paths in the custom-name test.

The subtest constructs caSecret by calling newCASecret directly. It therefore bypasses reconcileClusterCASecret and does not verify the changed lookup in reconcileClusterTLSSecret. Add cases that start without the CA Secret, invoke the reconciliation methods, and cover existing ConfigMap and TLS Secret state after spec.tls.ca.secretName changes.

Secret name from argoutil.NewTLSSecret(cr, "tls"), rejecting the configuration
before creating the CA Secret. Add or retain a reconcile-time collision check
around getCASecretName(cr) so a CA Secret cannot be mistaken for the server TLS
Secret, while preserving normal reconciliation for non-colliding names.
- Line 265: Update the reconciliation flow around getCASecretName and caSecret
so an existing {cr.Name}-tls Secret is detected when spec.tls.ca.secretName
changes, then regenerated or rotated using the newly selected CA; alternatively,
explicitly reject changes to that field. Preserve the current behavior when the
CA selection is unchanged.

Yes, it was a successful run against this branch https://github.com/argoproj-labs/argocd-operator/actions/runs/33777703222.

release-0.20 branch was created so I think this PR is good to merge to master
