Add 'cpuid/attributeBlacklist' and 'cpuid/attributeWhitelist' config
options for the cpu feature source. These can be used to filter the set
of cpuid capabilities that get published. The intention is to reduce
clutter in the NFD label space, getting rid of "obvious" or misleading
cpuid labels. Whitelisting has higher priority, i.e. only whitelist
takes effect if both attributeWhitelist and attributeBlacklist are
specified.
Remove 'cpuid', 'pstate' and 'rdt' feature sources and move their
functionality under the 'cpu' source. The goal is to have a more
systematic organization of feature sources and labels. After this change
we now basically have one source per type of hw, one for kernel and one
for userspace sw.
Related feature labels are changed, correspondingly, new labels being:
feature.node.k8s.io/cpu-cpuid.<cpuid flag>
feature.node.k8s.io/cpu-pstate.turbo
feature.node.k8s.io/cpu-rdt.<rdt feature>
Detect of the Intel SST-BF (Speed Select Technology - Base Frequency)
has been enabled.
Adds one new feature label:
feature.node.kubernetes.io/cpu-power.sst_bf.enabled=true
Based on a patch from kuralamudhan.ramakrishnan@intel.com
Currently, it only detects one feature, i.e. hardware multithreading
(such as Intel hyper-threading technology). The corresponding feature
label is:
feature.node.kubernetes.io/cpu-hardware_multithreading=true
However, this (architecture/platform dependent) feature is not detected
directly, and, the heuristics can be mislead. Detection works by
checking the thread siblings of each logical (and online) cpu in the
system. If any cpu has any thread siblings the feature label is set to
true. Thus, hardware multithreading could be effectively disabled e.g.
by putting all sibling cpus offline (even if the technology would be
enabled in hardware).
