Markus Lehtonen 45f49d574a nfd-master: drop resourceLabels
Drop the resourceLabels config file option and the corresponding
-resource-labels command line flag. They were deprecated in NFD v0.13 so
it's time to let them go. NodeFeatureRule(s) should be used to manage
ERs, instead.

To quickly view available command line flags execute nfd-master -help. In a docker container:

docker run {{ site.container_image }} nfd-master -help

-h, -help

Print usage and exit.

-version

Print version and exit.

-feature-gates

The -feature-gates flag is used to enable or disable non GA features. The list of available feature gates can be found in the feature gates documentation.

Example:

nfd-master -feature-gates NodeFeatureGroupAPI=true

-prune

The -prune flag is a sub-command like option for cleaning up the cluster. It causes nfd-master to remove all NFD related labels, annotations and extended resources from all Node objects of the cluster and exit.

-metrics

DEPRECATED: Will be removed in NFD v0.17 and replaced by -port.

The -metrics flag specifies the port on which to expose Prometheus metrics. Setting this to 0 disables the metrics server on nfd-master.

Default: 8081

Example:

nfd-master -metrics=12345

-instance

The -instance flag makes it possible to run multiple NFD deployments in parallel. In practice, it separates the node annotations between deployments so that each of them can store metadata independently. The instance name must start and end with an alphanumeric character and may only contain alphanumeric characters, -, _ or ..

Default: empty

Example:

nfd-master -instance=network

-enable-leader-election

The -enable-leader-election flag enables leader election for NFD-Master. It is advised to turn on this flag when running more than one instance of NFD-Master.

Default: false

nfd-master -enable-leader-election

-enable-taints

The -enable-taints flag enables/disables node tainting feature of NFD.

Default: false

Example:

nfd-master -enable-taints=true

-no-publish

The -no-publish flag disables updates to the Node objects in the Kubernetes API server, making a "dry-run" flag for nfd-master. No Labels, Annotations or ExtendedResources of nodes are updated.

Default: false

Example:

nfd-master -no-publish

-label-whitelist

The -label-whitelist specifies a regular expression for filtering feature labels based on their name. Each label must match against the given regular expression or it will not be published.

NOTE: The regular expression is only matches against the "basename" part of the label, i.e. to the part of the name after '/'. The label namespace is omitted.

Default: empty

Example:

nfd-master -label-whitelist='.*cpuid\.'

-extra-label-ns

The -extra-label-ns flag specifies a comma-separated list of allowed feature label namespaces. This option can be used to allow other vendor or application specific namespaces for custom labels from the local and custom feature sources, even though these labels were denied using the deny-label-ns flag.

Default: empty

Example:

nfd-master -extra-label-ns=vendor-1.com,vendor-2.io

-deny-label-ns

The -deny-label-ns flag specifies a comma-separated list of excluded label namespaces. By default, nfd-master allows creating labels in all namespaces, excluding kubernetes.io namespace and its sub-namespaces (i.e. *.kubernetes.io). However, you should note that kubernetes.io and its sub-namespaces are always denied. For example, nfd-master -deny-label-ns="" would still disallow kubernetes.io and *.kubernetes.io. This option can be used to exclude some vendors or application specific namespaces. Note that the namespaces feature.node.kubernetes.io and profile.node.kubernetes.io and their sub-namespaces are always allowed and cannot be denied.

Default: empty

Example:

nfd-master -deny-label-ns=*.vendor.com,vendor-2.io

-config

The -config flag specifies the path of the nfd-master configuration file to use.

Default: /etc/kubernetes/node-feature-discovery/nfd-master.conf

Example:

nfd-master -config=/opt/nfd/master.conf

-options

The -options flag may be used to specify and override configuration file options directly from the command line. The required format is the same as in the config file i.e. JSON or YAML. Configuration options specified via this flag will override those from the configuration file:

Default: empty

Example:

nfd-master -options='{"noPublish": true}'

-nfd-api-parallelism

The -nfd-api-parallelism flag can be used to specify the maximum number of concurrent node updates.

Default: 10

Example:

nfd-master -nfd-api-parallelism=1

Logging

The following logging-related flags are inherited from the klog package.

-add_dir_header

If true, adds the file directory to the header of the log messages.

Default: false

-alsologtostderr

Log to standard error as well as files.

Default: false

-log_backtrace_at

When logging hits line file:N, emit a stack trace.

Default: empty

-log_dir

If non-empty, write log files in this directory.

Default: empty

-log_file

If non-empty, use this log file.

Default: empty

-log_file_max_size

Defines the maximum size a log file can grow to. Unit is megabytes. If the value is 0, the maximum file size is unlimited.

Default: 1800

-logtostderr

Log to standard error instead of files

Default: true

-skip_headers

If true, avoid header prefixes in the log messages.

Default: false

-skip_log_headers

If true, avoid headers when opening log files.

Default: false

-stderrthreshold

Logs at or above this threshold go to stderr.

Default: 2

-v

Number for the log level verbosity.

Default: 0

-vmodule

Comma-separated list of pattern=N settings for file-filtered logging.

Default: empty

-resync-period

The -resync-period flag specifies the NFD API controller resync period. The resync means nfd-master replaying all NodeFeature and NodeFeatureRule objects, thus effectively re-syncing all nodes in the cluster (i.e. ensuring labels, annotations, extended resources and taints are in place).

Default: 1 hour.

Example:

nfd-master -resync-period=2h
