This PR aims to optimize the process of updating nodes with
corresponding features. In fact, previously, we were updating nodes
sequentially even though they are independent from each other.
Therefore, we integrated new components: LabelersNodePool which is
responsible for spininng a goroutine whenever there's a request for
updating nodes, and a Workqueue which is responsible for holding nodes names
that should be updated.

It allows NFD-master to be run in active-passive way when running
multiple instances of NFD-master to prevent multiple components
from updating same custom resources.

Use a separate NODE_ADDRESS environment variable in the default value of
-kubelet-config-uri (instead of NODE_NAME that was previously used).
Also change the kustomize and Helm deployments to set this variable to
node IP address. This should make the default deployment more robust,
making it work in scenarios where node name does not resolve to the node
ip, e.g. nodename != hostname.
This PR adds a config option for setting the NFD API controller resync period.
The resync period is only activated when the NodeFeature API has been
enabled (with -enable-nodefeature-api).

Mark the -resource-labels flag (and the corresponding resourceLabels
config option) as deprecated. We now support managing extended resources
via NodeFeatureRule objects. This kludge deserves to go, eventually.
Similar to the nfd-worker, in this PR we want to support the
dynamic run-time configurability through a config file for the nfd-master.
We'll use a json or yaml configuration file along with the fsnotify in
order to watch for changes in the config file. As a result, we're
allowing dynamic control of logging params, allowed namespaces,
extended resources, label whitelisting, and denied namespaces.

Access to the kubelet state directory may raise concerns in some setups, added an option to disable it.
The feature is enabled by default.

Make distroless/base as the base image for the default image,
effectively making the minimal image as the default. Add a new "full"
image variant that corresponds the previous default image. The
"*-minimal" container image tag is provided for backwards compatibility.
The practical user impact of this change is that hook support is limited
to statically linked ELF binaries. Bash or Perl scripts are not
supported by the default image, anymore, but the new "full" image
variant can be used for backwards compatibility.
Document the usage of the NodeFeature CRD API. Also re-organize the
documentation a bit, moving the description of NodeFeatureRule
controller from customization guide to nfd-master usage page.
Deprecate the '-featurerules-controller' command line flag as the name
does not describe the functionality anymore: in practice it controls the
CRD controller handling both NodeFeature and NodeFeatureRule objects.
The patch introduces a duplicate, more generally named, flag
'-crd-controller'. A warning is printed in the log if
'-featurerules-controller' flag is encountered.
Add initial support for handling NodeFeature objects. With this patch
nfd-master watches NodeFeature objects in all namespaces and reacts to
changes in any of these. The node which a certain NodeFeature object
affects is determined by the "nfd.node.kubernetes.io/node-name"
annotation of the object. When a NodeFeature object targeting certain
node is changed, nfd-master needs to process all other objects targeting
the same node, too, because there may be dependencies between them.
Add a new command line flag for selecting between gRPC and NodeFeature
CRD API as the source of feature requests. Enabling NodeFeature API
disables the gRPC interface.
-enable-nodefeature-api enable NodeFeature CRD API for incoming
feature requests, will disable the gRPC
interface (defaults to false)
It is not possible to serve gRPC and watch NodeFeature objects at the
same time. This is deliberate to avoid labeling races e.g. by nfd-worker
sending gRPC requests but NodeFeature objects in the cluster
"overriding" those changes (labels from the gRPC requests will get
overridden when NodeFeature objects are processed).
Support the new NodeFeatures object of the NFD CRD api. Add two new
command line options to nfd-worker:
-kubeconfig specifies the kubeconfig to use for
connecting k8s api (defaults to empty which
implies in-cluster config)
-enable-nodefeature-api enable the NodeFeature CRD API for
communicating node features to nfd-master,
will also automatically disable gRPC
(defgault to false)
No config file option for selecting the API is available as there should
be no need for dynamically selecting between gRPC and CRD. The
nfd-master configuration must be changed in tandem and it is safer (and
avoid awkward configuration races) to configure the whole NFD deployment
at once.
Default behavior of nfd-worker is not changed i.e. NodeFeatures object
creation is not enabled by default (but must be enabled with the command
line flag).
The patch also updates the kustomize and Helm deployment, adding RBAC
rules for nfd-worker and updating the example worker configuration.
Drop the gRPC communication to nfd-master and connect to the Kubernetes
API server directly when updating NodeResourceTopology objects.
Topology-updater already has connection to the API server for listing
Pods so this is not that dramatic change. It also simplifies the code
a lot as there is no need for the NFD gRPC client and no need for
managing TLS certs/keys.
This change aligns nfd-topology-updater with the future direction of
nfd-worker where the gRPC API is being dropped and replaced by a
CRD-based API.
This patch also update deployment files and documentation to reflect
this change.
Drop the following flags that were deprecated already in v0.8.0:
-sleep-interval (replaced by core.sleepInterval config file option)
-label-whitelist (replaced by core.labelWhiteList config file option)
-sources (replaced by -label-sources flag)
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.
