Add a separate customization guide. Move documentation of the custom and
local sources there. Also, cover the new NodeFeatureRules custom
resource and the new expression-based label rule format.
This patch also simplifies the "Feature labels" page, describing
built-in labels. Reformat the tables describing feature labels.
Add a configuration option for controlling the enabled "raw" feature
sources. This is useful e.g. in testing and development, plus it also
allows fully shutting down discovery of features that are not needed in
a deployment. Supplements core.labelSources which controls the
enablement of label sources.
Use the single-dash (i.e. '-option' instead of '--option') format
consistently accross log messages and documentation. This is the format
that was mostly used, already, and shown by command line help of the
binaries, for example.
Add a new command line flag for disabling/enabling the controller for
NodeFeatureRule objects. In practice, disabling the controller disables
all labels generated from rules in NodeFeatureRule objects.
Implement a simple controller stub that operates on NodeFeatureRule
objects. The controller does not yet have any functionality other than
logging changes in the (NodeFeatureRule) objecs it is watching.
Also update the documentation on the -no-publish flag to match the new
functionality.
The NodeResourceTopology API has been made cluster
scoped as in the current context a CR corresponds to
a Node and since Node is a cluster scoped resource it
makes sense to make NRT cluster scoped as well.

Prior to this feature, NFD consisted of only software components namely
nfd-master and nfd-worker. We have introduced another software component
called nfd-topology-updater.
NFD-Topology-Updater is a daemon responsible for examining allocated resources
on a worker node to account for allocatable resources on a per-zone basis (where
a zone can be a NUMA node). It then communicates the information to nfd-master
which does the CRD creation corresponding to all the nodes in the cluster. One
instance of nfd-topology-updater is supposed to be running on each node of the
cluster.

Make table of contents in the pages cleaner and more readable by
dropping the main heading (H1 level) from TOCs. This was the original
intention with the usage of "no_toc" kramdown magic, which was broken,
however. The kramdown class magic needs to be specified on the line
immediately following the headinds, otherwise it has no effect. We need
to disable MD022 rule of mdlint as it does not understand this magic.
Add a separate label namespace for profile labels, intended for
user-specified higher level "meta features". Also sub-namespaces of this
(i.e. <sub-ns>.profile.node.kubernetes.io) are allowed.
Allow <sub-ns>.feature.node.kubernetes.io label namespaces. Makes it
possible to have e.g. vendor specific label ns without the need to user
-extra-label-ns.
In my homelab, I have different FTDI serial converters connected to
several utility meters. They all have identical vendor/device, but
different serials.
In order to detect a specific FTDI unit (eg. the one connected to my
electricity meter), I'd like feature labels triggered by a specific USB
serial.

* Add support for configurable runtime full and minimal images.
* Fixups and renamings.
* Change variables *_IMG_* to *_IMAGE_*
* Fix args in Dockerfile also.
After moving to the flags package for command line argument parsing NFD
accepts command line arguments (flags) starting with a single dash (e.g.
-no-publish in addition to --no-publish). Even if double-dash can be
used the single-dash version is printed e.g. in the usage string (from
-h, -help) so align documentation with that.
Add a config file option for controlling the enabled feature sources,
aimed at replacing the --sources command line flag which is now marked
as deprecated. The command line flag takes precedence over the config
file option.
Add a config file option for label whitelisting. Deprecate the
--label-whitelist command line flag. Note that the command line flag has
higher priority than the config file option.
Add a new config file option for (dynamically) controlling the sleep
interval. At the same time, deprecate the --sleep-interval command line
flag. The command line flag takes precedence over the config file option.
This can be used to help running multiple parallel NFD deployments in
the same cluster. The flag changes the node annotation namespace to
<instance>.nfd.node.kubernetes.io allowing different nfd-master intances
to store metadata in separate annotations.
A new special value 'all' is a shortcut for enabling all feature
sources. It should be the only name specified -- if any other names are
specified 'all' does not take effect, but, we only enable the listed
feature sources. E.g.
--sources=all enables all sources, but
--sources=all,cpu only enables the cpu source
Also, print a warning if unknown sources are specified.
Use the existing content as a base but with heave editing. Move local
examples involving make to the developers guide.
Drop the really hackish label-nodes.sh. Just replace it with command
line examples in the documentation. If somebody really is dying for this
write it from scratch and put under scripts/hack.
