They were enabled yesterday and executed seven times, with results that (so
far) seem to be fairly stable with just one run that was slower across the
board.
The links in the YAML can be used to navigate to each test case quickly. The
thresholds were chose with a 20% security margin below what seems to be a
common result.
The performance of the basic "fill up the cluster"
scenario (SchedulingWithResourceClaimTemplate) and the steady-state
scenario (SteadyStateClusterResourceClaimTemplate) are relevant. The large
configurations should run long enough to provide meaningful results.
Performance may be different with queueing hints enabled, so variants with that
get added for those large configurations.
The "disabled by label filter" message for benchmarks printed the pointer to
the filter string, not the filter string itself. This mistake gets avoided and
the code becomes simpler when not using pointers.
This fixes an issue in
TestSchedulerPerf/SteadyStateClusterResourceClaimTemplate:
scheduler_perf.go:1542: FATAL ERROR: op 7: delete scheduled pods: client rate limiter Wait returned an error: rate: Wait(n=1) would exceed context deadline
That occurs when the test is almost done, but hasn't observed all scheduled
pods yet. The previous attempt to address this error wasn't actually 100%
correct. It covered the case when the context has already been canceled, but
not this particular "will reach deadline soon".
All logic related to obtaining DRA objects and tracking modifications
to ResourceClaims in-memory is extracted to DefaultDRAManager, which
implements framework.SharedDRAManager.
This is intended to be a no-op in terms of the DRA plugin behavior.
A better place is the cel package because a) the name can become shorter
and b) it is tightly coupled with the compiler there.
Moving the compilation into the cache simplifies the callers.
DeviceClasses and different requests are very likely to contain the same
expression string. We don't need to compile that over and over again.
To avoid hanging onto that cache longer than necessary, it's currently tied to
each PreFilter/Filter combination. It might make sense to move this up into the
scheduler plugin and thus reuse compiled expressions for different pods.

Using unique strings instead of normal strings speeds up allocation with
structured parameters because maps that use those strings as key no longer need
to build hashes of the string content. However, care must be taken to call
unique.Make as little as possible because it is costly.
Pre-allocating the map of allocated devices reduces the need to grow the map
when adding devices.

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.
