Introduce two main sections "Deployment" and "Usage" and move "Developer
guide" to the top level, too. In particular, split the huge
deployment-and-usage file into multiple parts under the new main
sections. Move customization guide from "Advanced" to "Usage".
This patch also renames "Advanced" to "Reference" as only that is left
there is reference documentation.
Set `cpu-security.tdx.enable` to `true` when TDX is avialable and has
been enabled. otherwise it'll be set to `false`.
`/sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/tdx` presence and content is used to
detect whether a CPU is Intel TDX capable.

Move existing security/trusted-execution related features (i.e. SGX and
SE) under the same "security" feature, deprecating the old features. The
motivation for the change is to keep the source code and user interface
more organized as we experience a constant inflow of similar security
related features. This change will affect the user interface so it is
less painful to do it early on.
New feature labels will be:
feature.node.kubernetes.io/cpu-security.se.enabled
feature.node.kubernetes.io/cpu-security.sgx.enabled
and correspondingly new "cpu.security" feature with "se.enabled" and
"sgx.enabled" elements will be available for custom rules, for example:
- name: "sample sgx rule"
labels:
sgx.sample.feature: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: cpu.security
matchExpressions:
"sgx.enabled": {op: IsTrue}
At the same time deprecate old labels "cpu-sgx.enabled" and
"cpu-se.enabled" feature labels and the corresponding features for
custom rules. These will be removed in the future causing an effective
change in NFDs user interface.
Update the partial list of x86 cpuid features that are presented in the
NFD documentation. In particular, the following instructions were left
out of the list: AVXSLOW, CETIBT, CETSS, CLDEMOTE, HLE, MPX, RTM,
RTM_ALWAYS_ABORT, SERIALIZE, SHA, TSXLDTRK.
Set `cpu.se-enabled` to `true` when IBM Secure Execution for Linux
(IBM Z & LinuxONE) is available and has been enabled.
Uses `/sys/firmware/uv/prot_virt_host`, which is available in kernels
>=5.12 + backports. For simplicity, skip more complicated facility &
kernel cmdline lookups.
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.
Implicitly injecting the filename of the hook/featurefile into the name
of the label is confusing, counter-intuitive and unnecessarily complex
to understand. It's much clearer to advertise features and labels as
presented in the feature file / output of the hook.
NOTE: this breaks backwards compatibility with usage scenarios that rely
on prefixing the label with the filename.
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.
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.
The naming was changed in when with cpuid v2
(github.com/klauspost/cpuid/v2) and we didn't catch this in NFD. No
issue reports of the inadvertent naming change so let's just adapt to
the updated naming in NFD configuration. The SSE4* labels are disabled
by default so they're not widely used, if at all.
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.

This adds additional cpu features:
- pstate status from status of intel_pstate driver
- pstate scaling settings from scaling_governor
- cstate enable from max_cstates in intel_idle driver
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.
There are cases when the only available metadata for discovering
features is the node's name. The "nodename" rule extends the custom
source and matches when the node's name matches one of the given
nodename regexp patterns.
It is also possible now to set an optional "value" on custom rules,
which overrides the default "true" label value in case the rule matches.
In order to allow more dynamic configurations without having to modify
the complete worker configuration, custom rules are additionally read
from a "custom.d" directory now. Typically that directory will be filled
by mounting one or more ConfigMaps.

Fix markdown syntax and style for content that was moved from README.md
to docs/:
- get-started/introduction
- examples-and-demos
- get-started/features
- contributing
Unify the spelling of master and worker in headings and beginning of
senctences.
Also, env variable for container name in developers-guide.
Move all content from README.md to the Jekyll site under docs/. Also
re-organize it into multiple sub-pages.
Populate README with fresh content turning it into virtually a big link
to the html-based documentation site. Spiced up with super-quick-start
instructions.
