Move the rule processing of matchFeatures and matchAny from
source/custom package over to pkg/apis/nfd, aiming for better integrity
and re-usability of the code. Does not change the CRD API as such, just
adds more supportive functions.
Create a new package pkg/apis/nfd/v1alpha1 and migrate the custom rule
expressions over there. This is the first step in creating a new CRD API
for custom rules.
Print out the result of applying an expression. Also, truncate the
output to max 10 elements (of items matched against) unless '-v 4'
verbosity level is in use.
Implement a new 'matchAny' directive in the new rule format, building on
top of the previously implemented 'matchFeatures' matcher. MatchAny
applies a logical OR over multiple matchFeatures directives. That is, it
allows specifying multiple alternative matchers (at least one of which
must match) in a single label rule.
The configuration format for the new matchers is
matchAny:
- matchFeatures:
- feature: <domain>.<feature>
matchExpressions:
<attribute>:
op: <operator>
value:
- <list-of-values>
- matchFeatures:
...
A configuration example. In order to require a cpu feature, kernel
module and one of two specific PCI devices (taking use of the shortform
notation):
- name: multi-device-test
labels:
multi-device-feature: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: kernel.loadedmodule
matchExpressions: [driver-module]
- feature: cpu.cpuid
matchExpressions: [AVX512F]
matchAny:
- matchFeatures:
- feature; pci.device
matchExpressions:
vendor: "8086"
device: "1234"
- matchFeatures:
- feature: pci.device
matchExpressions:
vendor: "8086"
device: "abcd"
Implement generic feature matchers that cover all feature sources (that
implement the FeatureSource interface). The implementation relies on the
unified data model provided by the FeatureSource interface as well as
the generic expression-based rule processing framework that was added to
the source/custom/expression package.
With this patch any new features added will be automatically available
for custom rules, without any additional work. Rule hierarchy follows
the source/feature hierarchy by design.
This patch introduces a new format for custom rule specifications,
dropping the 'value' field and introducing new 'labels' field which
makes it possible to specify multiple labels per rule. Also, in the new
format the 'name' field is just for reference and no matching label is
created. The new generic rules are available in this new rule format
under a 'matchFeatures. MatchFeatures implements a logical AND over
an array of per-feature matchers - i.e. a match for all of the matchers
is required. The goal of the new rule format is to make it better follow
K8s API design guidelines and make it extensible for future enhancements
(e.g. addition of templating, taints, annotations, extended resources
etc).
The old rule format (with cpuID, kConfig, loadedKMod, nodename, pciID,
usbID rules) is still supported. The rule format (new vs. old) is
determined at config parsing time based on the existence of the
'matchOn' field.
The new rule format and the configuration format for the new
matchFeatures field is
- name: <rule-name>
labels:
<key>: <value>
...
matchFeatures:
- feature: <domain>.<feature>
matchExpressions:
<attribute>:
op: <operator>
value:
- <list-of-values>
- feature: <domain>.<feature>
...
Currently, "cpu", "kernel", "pci", "system", "usb" and "local" sources
are covered by the matshers/feature selectors. Thus, the following
features are available for matching with this patch:
- cpu.cpuid:
<cpuid-flag>: <exists/does-not-exist>
- cpu.cstate:
enabled: <bool>
- cpu.pstate:
status: <string>
turbo: <bool>
scaling_governor: <string>
- cpu.rdt:
<rdt-feature>: <exists/does-not-exist>
- cpu.sst:
bf.enabled: <bool>
- cpu.topology:
hardware_multithreading: <bool>
- kernel.config:
<flag-name>: <string>
- kernel.loadedmodule:
<module-name>: <exists/does-not-exist>
- kernel.selinux:
enabled: <bool>
- kernel.version:
major: <int>
minor: <int>
revision: <int>
full: <string>
- system.osrelease:
<key-name>: <string>
VERSION_ID.major: <int>
VERSION_ID.minor: <int>
- system.name:
nodename: <string>
- pci.device:
<device-instance>:
class: <string>
vendor: <string>
device: <string>
subsystem_vendor: <string>
susbystem_device: <string>
sriov_totalvfs: <int>
- usb.device:
<device-instance>:
class: <string>
vendor: <string>
device: <string>
serial: <string>
- local.label:
<label-name>: <string>
The configuration also supports some "shortforms" for convenience:
matchExpressions: [<attr-1>, <attr-2>=<val-2>]
---
matchExpressions:
<attr-3>:
<attr-4>: <val-4>
is equal to:
matchExpressions:
<attr-1>: {op: Exists}
<attr-2>: {op: In, value: [<val-2>]}
---
matchExpressions:
<attr-3>: {op: Exists}
<attr-4>: {op: In, value: [<val-4>]}
In other words:
- feature: kernel.config
matchExpressions: ["X86", "INIT_ENV_ARG_LIMIT=32"]
- feature: pci.device
matchExpressions:
vendor: "8086"
is the same as:
- feature: kernel.config
matchExpressions:
X86: {op: Exists}
INIT_ENV_ARG_LIMIT: {op: In, values: ["32"]}
- feature: pci.device
matchExpressions:
vendor: {op: In, value: ["8086"]
Some configuration examples below. In order to match a CPUID feature the
following snippet can be used:
- name: cpu-test-1
labels:
cpu-custom-feature: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: cpu.cpuid
matchExpressions:
AESNI: {op: Exists}
AVX: {op: Exists}
In order to match against a loaded kernel module and OS version:
- name: kernel-test-1
labels:
kernel-custom-feature: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: kernel.loadedmodule
matchExpressions:
e1000: {op: Exists}
- feature: system.osrelease
matchExpressions:
NAME: {op: InRegexp, values: ["^openSUSE"]}
VERSION_ID.major: {op: Gt, values: ["14"]}
In order to require a kernel module and both of two specific PCI devices:
- name: multi-device-test
labels:
multi-device-feature: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: kernel.loadedmodule
matchExpressions:
driver-module: {op: Exists}
- pci.device:
vendor: "8086"
device: "1234"
- pci.device:
vendor: "8086"
device: "abcd"
Implement a framework for more flexible rule configuration and matching,
mimicking the MatchExpressions pattern from K8s nodeselector.
The basic building block is MatchExpression which contains an operator
and a list of values. The operator specifies that "function" that is
applied when evaluating a given input agains the list of values.
Available operators are:
- MatchIn
- MatchNotIn
- MatchInRegexp
- MatchExists
- MatchDoesNotExist
- MatchGt
- MatchLt
- MatchIsTrue
- MatchIsFalse
Another building block of the framework is MatchExpressionSet which is a
map of string-MatchExpression pairs. It is a helper for specifying
multiple expressions that can be matched against a set of set of
features.
This patch converts all existing custom rules to utilize the new
expression-based framework.
Separate feature discovery and creation of feature labels in the system
source.
Also, change the implementation of the nodeName custom rule to utilize
the FeatureSource interface of the system source.
Also, add minimalist unit test.
Move the functionality responsible for detection of loeaded kernel
modules from source/custom over to the source/kernel package. Add a new
"loadedmodule" raw feature to the kernel source to store this
information.
Change loadedKmod custom rule to utilize kernel source.
Separate feature discovery and creation of feature labels in the usb
source.
Move usb_utils from source/internal to the source/usb package. Change
the implementation of the UsbID custom rule to utilize the FeatureSource
interface of the usb source.
Also, add minimalist unit test.
Separate feature discovery and creation of feature labels in the pci
source.
Move pci_utils from source/internal to the source/pci package. Change
the implementation of the PciID custom rule to utilize the FeatureSource
interface of the pci source.
Also, add minimalist unit test.
Convert the cpu source to do feature discovery and creation of feature
labels separately.
Move cpuidutils from source/internal to the source/cpu package. Change
the cpuid custom rule to utilize GetFeatures of the cpu source.
Also, add minimalist unit test.
Separate feature discovery and creation of feature labels in the kernel
source.
Move kernelutils from source/internal back to the source/kernel package.
Change the kconfig custom rule to rely on the FeatureSource interface
(GetFeatures()) of the kernel source.
Also, add minimalist unit test.
Specify a new interface for managing "raw" feature data. This is the
first step to separate raw feature data from node labels. None of the
feature sources implement this interface, yet.
This patch unifies the data format of "raw" features by dividing them
into three different basic types.
- keys, a set of names without any associated values, e.g. CPUID flags
or loaded kernel modules
- values, a map of key-value pairs, for features with a single value,
e.g. kernel config flags or os version
- instances, a list of instances each of which has multiple attributes
(key-value pairs of their own), e.g. PCI or USB devices
The new feature data types are defined in a new "pkg/api/feature"
package, catering decoupling and re-usability of code e.g. within future
extentions of the NFD gRPC API.
Rename the Discover() method of LabelSource interface to GetLabels().
Implement new registration infrastructure under the "source" package.
This change loosens the coupling between label sources and the
nfd-worker, making it easier to refactor and move the code around.
Also, create a separate interface (ConfigurableSource) for configurable
feature sources in order to eliminate boilerplate code.
Add safety checks to the sources that they actually implement the
interfaces they should.
In sake of consistency and predictability (of behavior) change all
methods of the sources to use pointer receivers.
Add simple unit tests for the new functionality and include source/...
into make test target.
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.

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.

Skip to the next rule instead of returning immediately on
rule errors. For instance, if the static rules failed, user
provided rules would never be processed.

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.
This builds on the PCI support to enable the discovery of USB devices.
This is primarily intended to be used for the discovery of Edge-based
heterogeneous accelerators that are connected via USB, such as the Coral
USB Accelerator and the Intel NCS2 - our main motivation for adding this
capability to NFD, and as part of our work in the SODALITE H2020
project.
USB devices may define their base class at either the device or
interface levels. In the case where no device class is set, the
per-device interfaces are enumerated instead. USB devices may
furthermore have multiple interfaces, which may or may not use the
identical class across each interface. We therefore report device
existence for each unique class definition to enable more fine-grained
labelling and node selection.
The default labelling format includes the class, vendor and device
(product) IDs, as follows:
feature.node.kubernetes.io/usb-fe_1a6e_089a.present=true
As with PCI, a subset of device classes are whitelisted for matching.
By default, there are only a subset of device classes under which
accelerators tend to be mapped, which is used as the basis for
the whitelist. These are:
- Video
- Miscellaneous
- Application Specific
- Vendor Specific
For those interested in matching other classes, this may be extended
by using the UsbId rule provided through the custom source. A full
list of class codes is provided by the USB-IF at:
https://www.usb.org/defined-class-codes
For the moment, owing to a lack of a demonstrable use case, neither
the subclass nor the protocol information are exposed. If this
becomes necessary, support for these attributes can be trivially
added.

- Implement the 'custom' feature source utilizing the
match rules implemented in previous commit.
- Add a static custom feature list for:
1. rdma.capable - marks a node where devices that support
RDMA are present.
2. rdma.enabled - marks a node where rdma modules have
been loaded.
A user may extend these features with additional match rules via
NFD configuration file.
- Add a Rule interface to help describe the contract
between a match rule and the Custom source that uses it.
- Add PciIdRule - a rule that matches on the PCI attributes:
class, vendor, device. Each is provided as a list of elements(strings).
Match operation: OR will be performed per element and AND will be
performed per attribute.
An empty attribute will not be included in the matching process.
Example:
{
"class": ["0200"]
"vendor": ["15b3"]
"device": ["1014", "1016"]
}
- Add LoadedKmodRule - a rule that matches a list of kernel
modules with the kernel modules currently loaded in the node.
Example:
{
["rdma_cm", "ib_core"]
}
