Support backreferencing of output values from previous rules. Enables
complex rule setups where custom features are further combined together
to form even more sophisticated higher level labels. The labels created
by preceding rules are available as a special 'rule.matched' feature
(for matchFeatures to use).
If referencing rules accross multiple configs/CRDs care must be taken
with the ordering. Processing order of rules in nfd-worker:
1. Static rules
2. Files from /etc/kubernetes/node-feature-discovery/custom.d/
in alphabetical order. Subdirectories are processed by reading their
files in alphabetical order.
3. Custom rules from main nfd-worker.conf
In nfd-master, NodeFeatureRule objects are processed in alphabetical
order (based on their metadata.name).
This patch also adds new 'vars' fields to the rule spec. Like 'labels',
it is a map of key-value pairs but no labels are generated from these.
The values specified in 'vars' are only added for backreferencing into
the 'rules.matched' feature. This may by desired in schemes where the
output of certain rules is only used as intermediate variables for other
rules and no labels out of these are wanted.
An example setup:
- name: "kernel feature"
labels:
kernel-feature:
matchFeatures:
- feature: kernel.version
matchExpressions:
major: {op: Gt, value: ["4"]}
- name: "intermediate var feature"
vars:
nolabel-feature: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: cpu.cpuid
matchExpressions:
AVX512F: {op: Exists}
- feature: pci.device
matchExpressions:
vendor: {op: In, value: ["8086"]}
device: {op: In, value: ["1234", "1235"]}
- name: top-level-feature
matchFeatures:
- feature: rule.matched
matchExpressions:
kernel-feature: "true"
nolabel-feature: "true"
Support templating of label names in feature rules. It is available both
in NodeFeatureRule CRs and in custom rule configuration of nfd-worker.
This patch adds a new 'labelsTemplate' field to the rule spec, making it
possible to dynamically generate multiple labels per rule based on the
matched features. The feature relies on the golang "text/template"
package. When expanded, the template must contain labels in a raw
<key>[=<value>] format (where 'value' defaults to "true"), separated by
newlines i.e.:
- name: <rule-name>
labelsTemplate: |
<label-1>[=<value-1>]
<label-2>[=<value-2>]
...
All the matched features of 'matchFeatures' directives are available for
templating engine in a nested data structure that can be described in
yaml as:
.
<domain-1>:
<key-feature-1>:
- Name: <matched-key>
- ...
<value-feature-1:
- Name: <matched-key>
Value: <matched-value>
- ...
<instance-feature-1>:
- <attribute-1-name>: <attribute-1-value>
<attribute-2-name>: <attribute-2-value>
...
- ...
<domain-2>:
...
That is, the per-feature data available for matching depends on the type
of feature that was matched:
- "key features": only 'Name' is available
- "value features": 'Name' and 'Value' can be used
- "instance features": all attributes of the matched instance are
available
NOTE: In case of matchAny is specified, the template is executed
separately against each individual matchFeatures matcher and the
eventual set of labels is a superset of all these expansions. Consider
the following:
- name: <name>
labelsTemplate: <template>
matchAny:
- matchFeatures: <matcher#1>
- matchFeatures: <matcher#2>
matchFeatures: <matcher#3>
In the example above (assuming the overall result is a match) the
template would be executed on matcher#1 and/or matcher#2 (depending on
whether both or only one of them match), and finally on matcher#3, and
all the labels from these separate expansions would be created (i.e. the
end result would be a union of all the individual expansions).
NOTE 2: The 'labels' field has priority over 'labelsTemplate', i.e.
labels specified in the 'labels' field will override any labels
originating from the 'labelsTemplate' field.
A special case of an empty match expression set matches everything (i.e.
matches/returns all existing keys/values). This makes it simpler to
write templates that run over all values. Also, makes it possible to
later implement support for templates that run over all _keys_ of a
feature.
Some example configurations:
- name: "my-pci-template-features"
labelsTemplate: |
{{ range .pci.device }}intel-{{ .class }}-{{ .device }}=present
{{ end }}
matchFeatures:
- feature: pci.device
matchExpressions:
class: {op: InRegexp, value: ["^06"]}
vendor: ["8086"]
- name: "my-system-template-features"
labelsTemplate: |
{{ range .system.osrelease }}system-{{ .Name }}={{ .Value }}
{{ end }}
matchFeatures:
- feature: system.osRelease
matchExpressions:
ID: {op: Exists}
VERSION_ID.major: {op: Exists}
Imaginative template pipelines are possible, of course, but care must be
taken in order to produce understandable and maintainable rule sets.
Separate feature discovery and creation of feature labels.
Generalize the discovery of nvdimm devices so that they can be matched
in custom label rules in a similar fashion as pci and usb devices.
Available attributes for matching nvdimm devices are limited to:
- devtype
- mode
For numa we now detect the number of numa nodes which can be matched
agains in custom label rules.
Labels created by the memory feature source are unchanged. The new
features being detected are available in custom rules only.
Example custom rule:
- name: "my memory rule"
labels:
my-memory-feature: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: memory.numa
matchExpressions:
"node_count": {op: Gt, value: ["3"]}
- feature: memory.nv
matchExpressions:
"devtype" {op: In, value: ["nd_dax"]}
Also, add minimalist unit test.
Separate feature discovery and creation of feature labels. Generalize
the feature discovery so that network devices can be matched in custom
label rules in a similar fashion as pci and usb devices. Available
attributes for matching are:
- operstate
- speed
- sriov_numvfs
- sriov_totalvfs
Labels created by the network feature source are unchanged. The new
features being detected are available in custom rules only.
Example custom rule:
- name: "my network rule"
labels:
my-network-feature: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: network.device
matchExpressions:
"operstate": { op: In, value: ["up"] }
"sriov_numvfs": { op: Gt, value: ["9"] }
Also, add minimalist unit test.
Separate feature discovery and creation of feature labels. Generalize
the feature discovery so that block devices can be matched in custom
label rules in a similar fashion as pci and usb devices. This extends
the discovery to other block queue attributes than 'rotational': now we
also detect 'dax', 'nr_zones' and 'zoned'.
Labels created by the storage feature source are unchanged. The new
features being detected are available in custom rules only.
Example custom rules:
- name: "my block rule 1"
labels:
my-block-feature-1: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: storage.block
"rotational": {op: In, value: ["0"]}
- name: "my block rule 2"
labels:
my-block-feature-2: "true"
matchFeatures:
- feature: storage.block
"zoned": {op: In, value: [“host-aware”, “host-managed”]}
Also, add minimalist unit test.
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 functionality virtually replicating deployment templates for
nfd-master and nfd-worker daemonset (nfd-master.yaml.template and
nfd-worker-daemonset.yaml.template) by adding a kustomize overlay named
"default".
We split the resources into multiple bases (rbac, master and
worker-daemonset) so that relevant parts are re-usable in
other deployment scenarios added later (e.g. "one-shot job", and
"combined daemonset").
This patch adds one component (components/common) doing the required
kustomization for the example deployment.
