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.
This is a complete revamp of the original API. Some of the key
differences:
- refocused on structured parameters and allocating devices
- support for constraints across devices
- support for allocating "all" or a fixed amount
of similar devices in a single request
- no class for ResourceClaims, instead individual
device requests are associated with a mandatory
DeviceClass
For the sake of simplicity, optional basic types (ints, strings) where the null
value is the default are represented as values in the API types. This makes Go
code simpler because it doesn't have to check for nil (consumers) and values
can be set directly (producers). The effect is that in protobuf, these fields
always get encoded because `opt` only has an effect for pointers.
The roundtrip test data for v1.29.0 and v1.30.0 changes because of the new
"request" field. This is considered acceptable because the entire `claims`
field in the pod spec is still alpha.
The implementation is complete enough to bring up the apiserver.
Adapting other components follows.
While currently those objects only get published by the kubelet for node-local
resources, this could change once we also support network-attached
resources. Dropping the "Node" prefix enables such a future extension.
The NodeName in ResourceSlice and StructuredResourceHandle then becomes
optional. The kubelet still needs to provide one and it must match its own node
name, otherwise it doesn't have permission to access ResourceSlice objects.
This adds support for semantic version comparison to the CEL support in the
"named resources" structured parameter model. For example, it can be used to
check that an instance supports a certain API level.
To minimize the risk, the new "semver" type is only defined in the CEL
environment for DRA expressions, not in the base library. See
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123664 for a PR which
adds it to the base library.
Validation of semver strings is done with the regular expression from
semver.org. The actual evaluation at runtime then uses semver/v4.
Like the current device plugin interface, a DRA driver using this model
announces a list of resource instances. In contrast to device plugins, this
list is made available to the scheduler together with attributes that can be
used to select suitable instances when they are not all alike.
Because this is the first structured parameter model, some checks that
previously were not possible, in particular "is one structured parameter field
set", now gets enabled. Adding another structured parameter model will be
similar.
The applyconfigs code generator assumes that all types in an API are defined in
a single package. If it wasn't for that, it would be possible to place the
"named resources" types in separate packages, which makes their names in the Go
code more natural and provides an indication of their stability level because
the package name could include a version.
NodeResourceSlice will be used by kubelet to publish resource information on
behalf of DRA drivers on the node. NodeName and DriverName in
NodeResourceSlice must be immutable. This simplifies tracking the different
objects because what they are for cannot change after creation.
The new field in ResourceClass tells scheduler and autoscaler that they are
expected to handle allocation.
ResourceClaimParameters and ResourceClassParameters are new types for telling
in-tree components how to handle claims.
