Description

Apache Airflow version

If "Other Airflow 2 version" selected, which one?

What happened?

A KubernetesPodOperator with the following full_pod_spec:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: multi-container-pod
spec:
  restartPolicy: Never
  containers:
  - name: base
    image: busybox
    command: ["sh", "-c", "echo base will exit after 30 seconds; sleep 30"]
  - name: sidecar
    image: busybox
    command: ["sh", "-c", "echo sidecar running indefinitely; while true; do sleep 3600; done"]

will not mark the task as successful after 30 seconds because the sidecar will continue to run after the base container has succeeded. This happens because the pod_manager gets stuck waiting for pod completion. This if statement returns False when istio is not enabled on the pod.

What you think should happen instead?

The pod should be considered complete when the base container succeeds regardless of whether or not any other containers on the pod are still running.

How to reproduce

Create a KubernetesPodOperator with the full_pod_spec provided.
