Initializing the scheduler Features struct will be needed in different places,
therefore NewSchedulerFeaturesFromGates gets introduced. Besides, having it
next to the struct makes it easier to add new features.
The DRASchedulerFilterTimeout feature gate simplifies disabling the timeout
because setting a feature gate is often easier than modifying the scheduler
configuration with a zero timeout value.
The timeout and feature gate are new. The gate starts as beta and enabled by
default, which is consistent with the "smaller changes with low enough risk
that still may need to be disabled..." guideline.
Thanks to the tracker, the plugin sees all taints directly in the device
definition and can compare it against the tolerations of a request while
trying to find a device for the request.
When the feature is turnedd off, taints are ignored during scheduling.
1. Use pod-level resource when feature is enabled and resources are set at pod-level
2. Edge case handling: When a pod defines only CPU or memory limits at pod-level (but not both), and container-level requests/limits are unset, the pod-level requests stay empty for the resource without a pod-limit. The container's request for that resource is then set to the default request value from schedutil.
The new DRAAdminAccess feature gate has the following effects:
- If disabled in the apiserver, the spec.devices.requests[*].adminAccess
field gets cleared. Same in the status. In both cases the scenario
that it was already set and a claim or claim template get updated
is special: in those cases, the field is not cleared.
Also, allocating a claim with admin access is allowed regardless of the
feature gate and the field is not cleared. In practice, the scheduler
will not do that.
- If disabled in the resource claim controller, creating ResourceClaims
with the field set gets rejected. This prevents running workloads
which depend on admin access.
- If disabled in the scheduler, claims with admin access don't get
allocated. The effect is the same.
The alternative would have been to ignore the fields in claim controller and
scheduler. This is bad because a monitoring workload then runs, blocking
resources that probably were meant for production workloads.
This removes the DRAControlPlaneController feature gate, the fields controlled
by it (claim.spec.controller, claim.status.deallocationRequested,
claim.status.allocation.controller, class.spec.suitableNodes), the
PodSchedulingContext type, and all code related to the feature.
The feature gets removed because there is no path towards beta and GA and DRA
with "structured parameters" should be able to replace it.
In the API, the effect of the feature gate is that alpha fields get dropped on
create. They get preserved during updates if already set. The
PodSchedulingContext registration is *not* restricted by the feature gate.
This enables deleting stale PodSchedulingContext objects after disabling
the feature gate.
The scheduler checks the new feature gate before setting up an informer for
PodSchedulingContext objects and when deciding whether it can schedule a
pod. If any claim depends on a control plane controller, the scheduler bails
out, leading to:
Status: Pending
...
Warning FailedScheduling 73s default-scheduler 0/1 nodes are available: resourceclaim depends on disabled DRAControlPlaneController feature. no new claims to deallocate, preemption: 0/1 nodes are available: 1 Preemption is not helpful for scheduling.
The rest of the changes prepare for testing the new feature separately from
"structured parameters". The goal is to have base "dra" jobs which just enable
and test those, then "classic-dra" jobs which add DRAControlPlaneController.
This marks the pods with restartable init containers as
`UnschedulableAndUnresolvable` if the feature gate is disabled to avoid
the inconsistency in resource calculation between the scheduler and the
older kubelet.
The feature gate gets locked to "true", with the goal to remove it in two
releases.
All code now can assume that the feature is enabled. Tests for "feature
disabled" are no longer needed and get removed.
Some code wasn't using the new helper functions yet. That gets changed while
touching those lines.
Check the PVC ref count on the node info cache to determine if a pod's
PVCs are in use. If they are and it is using ReadWriteOncePod, fail the
request.
kubernetes#60525 introduced
Balanced attached node volumes feature gate to include volume
count for prioritizing nodes. The reason for introducing this
flag was its usefulness in Red Hat OpenShift Online environment
which is not being used any more. So, removing the flag
as it helps in maintainability of the scheduler code base
as mentioned at kubernetes#101489 (comment)
