Drivers need to know that because admin access may also grant additional
permissions. The allocator needs to ignore such results when determining which
devices are considered as allocated.
In both cases it is conceptually cleaner to not rely on the content of the
ClaimSpec.
Some of the E2E node tests were flaky. Their timeout apparently was chosen
under the assumption that kubelet would retry immediately after a failed gRPC
call, with a factor of 2 as safety margin. But according to
0449cef8fd,
kubelet has a different, higher retry period of 90 seconds, which was exactly
the test timeout. The test timeout has to be higher than that.
As the tests don't use the gRPC call timeout anymore, it can be made
private. While at it, the name and documentation gets updated.
This is in preparation for revamping the resource.k8s.io completely. Because
there will be no support for transitioning from v1alpha2 to v1alpha3, the
roundtrip test data for that API in 1.29 and 1.30 gets removed.
Repeating the version in the import name of the API packages is not really
required. It was done for a while to support simpler grepping for usage of
alpha APIs, but there are better ways for that now. So during this transition,
"resourceapi" gets used instead of "resourcev1alpha3" and the version gets
dropped from informer and lister imports. The advantage is that the next bump
to v1beta1 will affect fewer source code lines.
Only source code where the version really matters (like API registration)
retains the versioned import.
This is a first step towards making kubelet independent of the resource.k8s.io
API versioning because it now doesn't need to copy structs defined by that API
from the driver to the API server. The next step is removing the other
direction (reading ResourceClaim status and passing the resource handle to
drivers).
The drivers must get deployed so that they have their own connection to the API
server. Securing at least the writes via a validating admission policy should
be possible.
As before, the kubelet removes all ResourceSlices for its node at startup, then
DRA drivers recreate them if (and only if) they start up again. This ensures
that there are no orphaned ResourceSlices when a driver gets removed while the
kubelet was down.
While at it, logging gets cleaned up and updated to use structured, contextual
logging as much as possible. gRPC requests and streams now use a shared,
per-process request ID and streams also get logged.
This makes the API nicer:
resourceClaims:
- name: with-template
resourceClaimTemplateName: test-inline-claim-template
- name: with-claim
resourceClaimName: test-shared-claim
Previously, this was:
resourceClaims:
- name: with-template
source:
resourceClaimTemplateName: test-inline-claim-template
- name: with-claim
source:
resourceClaimName: test-shared-claim
A more long-term benefit is that other, future alternatives
might not make sense under the "source" umbrella.
This is a breaking change. It's justified because DRA is still
alpha and will have several other API breaks in 1.31.
The information is received from the DRA driver plugin through a new gRPC
streaming interface. This is backwards compatible with old DRA driver kubelet
plugins, their gRPC server will return "not implemented" and that can be
handled by kubelet. Therefore no API break is needed.
However, DRA drivers need to be updated because the Go API changed. They can
return
status.New(codes.Unimplemented, "no node resource support").Err()
if they don't support the new ListAndWatchResources method and
structured parameters.
The controller in kubelet then synchronizes this information from the driver
with NodeResourceSlice objects, creating, updating and deleting them as needed.
This changes the text registration so that tags for which the framework has a
dedicated API (features, feature gates, slow, serial, etc.) those APIs are
used.
Arbitrary, custom tags are still left in place for now.
Combining all prepare/unprepare operations for a pod enables plugins to
optimize the execution. Plugins can continue to use the v1beta2 API for now,
but should switch. The new API is designed so that plugins which want to work
on each claim one-by-one can do so and then report errors for each claim
separately, i.e. partial success is supported.
Added NodeAlphaFeature:DynamicResourceAllocation to the Node DRA test
to fix failing containerd serial jobs. Those jobs skip tests labeled
with NodeAlphaFeature.
Removed NodeFeature:DynamicResourceAllocation label from the
tests to fix cos-cgroupv1/v2-containerd-node-e2e-serial CI jobs.
It turned out that labeling DRA Node tests as NodeFeature was
a mistake. Re-labeling with NodeAlphaFeature would not work either.
It would fail certain containerd jobs as DRA requires containerd >= 1.7
