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.
Allows dynamic (re-)configuration of most nfd-worker options. The goal
is to have most configuration parameters specified in the configuration
file and deprecate most of the command line flags. The priority is
intended to be such that command line flags override whatever is
specified in the configuration file. Thus, specifying something on the
command line effectively disables dynamic configurability of that
parameter.
This patch adds core.noPublish config file option to demonstrate how the
new mechanism is supposed to work. The --no-publish command line flag
takes precedence over this config file option.
Extend the FeatureSource interface with new methods for configuration
handling. This enables easier on-the fly reconfiguration of the
feature sources. Further, it simplifies adding config support to feature
sources in the future. Stub methods are added to sources that do not
currently have any configurability.
The patch fixes some (corner) cases with the overrides (--options)
handling, too:
- Overrides were not applied if config file was missing or its parsing
failed
- Overrides for a certain source did not have effect if an empty config
for the source was specified in the config file. This was caused by
the first pass of parsing (config file) setting a nil pointer to the
source-specific config, effectively detaching it from the main config.
The second pass would then create a new instance of the source
specific config, but, this was not visible in the feature source, of
course.
Make the list of enabled sources and the label whitelist regexp members
of the nfdWorker instance. Get rid of the not-that-well-defined
configureParameters() function.
Unify handling of --label-whitelist in nfd-worker and nfd-master. That is,
in nfd-worker, apply the regexp filter on non-namespaced part of the
label name.
Brief history:
1. Originally the whitelist regexp was applied on the full namespaced
label name (that would be e.g.
'feature.node.kubernetes.io/cpu-cpuid.AVX' in the current nfd version)
2. Commit 81752b2d changed the behavior so that the regexp was applied
on the non-namespaced part (that would be `cpu-cpuid.AVX`)
3. Commit 40918827 added support for custom label namespaces. With this
change, the label whitelist handling diverged between nfd-worker and
nfd-master. In nfd-master the whitelist regexp is always applied on
the non-namespaced label name. However, in nfd-worker the whitelist
handling is two-fold (and inconsistent): for labels in the standard
nfd namespace regexp is applied on the non-namespaced part (e.g.
`cpu-cpuid.AVX`, but, for labels in custom namespaces the regexp is
applied on the full name (e.g. `example.com/my-feature`).
This patch changes nfd-worker to behave similarly to nfd-master. The
namespace part is now always omitted, which should be easier for the
users to comprehend.
Also, fixes a bug in the label name prefixing so that the name of the
feature source is not prefixed into labels with custom label namespace
(effectively mangling the intended namespace). For example, previously a
'example.com/feature' label from the 'custom' feature source would be
prefixed with the source name, mangling it to
'custom-example.com/feature'.
Move most of the code under cmd/nfd-master and cmd/nfd-worker into new
packages pkg/nfd-master and pk/nfd-worker, respectively. Makes extending
unit tests to "main" functions easier.
