// Package cdi has the primary purpose of providing an API for
|
|
// interacting with CDI and consuming CDI devices.
|
|
//
|
|
// For more information about Container Device Interface, please refer to

|
|
// Container Device Interface
|
|
//
|
|
// Container Device Interface, or CDI for short, provides comprehensive
|
|
// third party device support for container runtimes. CDI uses vendor
|
|
// provided specification files, CDI Specs for short, to describe how a
|
|
// container's runtime environment should be modified when one or more
|
|
// of the vendor-specific devices is injected into the container. Beyond
|
|
// describing the low level platform-specific details of how to gain
|
|
// basic access to a device, CDI Specs allow more fine-grained device
|
|
// initialization, and the automatic injection of any necessary vendor-
|
|
// or device-specific software that might be required for a container
|
|
// to use a device or take full advantage of it.
|
|
//
|
|
// In the CDI device model containers request access to a device using
|
|
// fully qualified device names, qualified names for short, consisting of
|
|
// a vendor identifier, a device class and a device name or identifier.
|
|
// These pieces of information together uniquely identify a device among
|
|
// all device vendors, classes and device instances.
|
|
//
|
|
// This package implements an API for easy consumption of CDI. The API
|
|
// implements discovery, loading and caching of CDI Specs and injection
|
|
// of CDI devices into containers. This is the most common functionality
|
|
// the vast majority of CDI consumers need. The API should be usable both
|
|
// by OCI runtime clients and runtime implementations.
|
|
//
|
|
// CDI Registry
|
|
//
|
|
// The primary interface to interact with CDI devices is the Registry. It
|
|
// is essentially a cache of all Specs and devices discovered in standard
|
|
// CDI directories on the host. The registry has two main functionality,
|
|
// injecting devices into an OCI Spec and refreshing the cache of CDI
|
|
// Specs and devices.
|
|
//
|
|
// Device Injection
|
|
//
|
|
// Using the Registry one can inject CDI devices into a container with code
|
|
// similar to the following snippet:
|
|
//
|
|
// import (
|
|
// "fmt"
|
|
// "strings"
|
|
//
|
|
// "github.com/pkg/errors"
|
|
// log "github.com/sirupsen/logrus"
|
|
//
|
|
// "github.com/container-orchestrated-devices/container-device-interface/pkg/cdi"
|
|
// oci "github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/specs-go"
|
|
// )
|
|
//
|
|
// func injectCDIDevices(spec *oci.Spec, devices []string) error {
|
|
// log.Debug("pristine OCI Spec: %s", dumpSpec(spec))
|
|
//
|
|
// unresolved, err := cdi.GetRegistry().InjectDevices(spec, devices)
|
|
// if err != nil {
|
|
// return errors.Wrap(err, "CDI device injection failed")
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
// log.Debug("CDI-updated OCI Spec: %s", dumpSpec(spec))
|
|
// return nil
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
// Cache Refresh
|
|
//
|
|
// In a runtime implementation one typically wants to make sure the
|
|
// CDI Spec cache is up to date before performing device injection.
|
|
// A code snippet similar to the following accmplishes that:
|
|
//
|
|
// import (
|
|
// "fmt"
|
|
// "strings"
|
|
//
|
|
// "github.com/pkg/errors"
|
|
// log "github.com/sirupsen/logrus"
|
|
//
|
|
// "github.com/container-orchestrated-devices/container-device-interface/pkg/cdi"
|
|
// oci "github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/specs-go"
|
|
// )
|
|
//
|
|
// func injectCDIDevices(spec *oci.Spec, devices []string) error {
|
|
// registry := cdi.GetRegistry()
|
|
//
|
|
// if err := registry.Refresh(); err != nil {
|
|
// // Note:
|
|
// // It is up to the implementation to decide whether
|
|
// // to abort injection on errors. A failed Refresh()
|
|
// // does not necessarily render the registry unusable.
|
|
// // For instance, a parse error in a Spec file for
|
|
// // vendor A does not have any effect on devices of
|
|
// // vendor B...
|
|
// log.Warnf("pre-injection Refresh() failed: %v", err)
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
// log.Debug("pristine OCI Spec: %s", dumpSpec(spec))
|
|
//
|
|
// unresolved, err := registry.InjectDevices(spec, devices)
|
|
// if err != nil {
|
|
// return errors.Wrap(err, "CDI device injection failed")
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
// log.Debug("CDI-updated OCI Spec: %s", dumpSpec(spec))
|
|
// return nil
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
// Generated Spec Files, Multiple Directories, Device Precedence
|
|
//
|
|
// There are systems where the set of available or usable CDI devices
|
|
// changes dynamically and this needs to be reflected in the CDI Specs.
|
|
// This is done by dynamically regenerating CDI Spec files which are
|
|
// affected by these changes.
|
|
//
|
|
// CDI can collect Spec files from multiple directories. Spec files are
|
|
// automatically assigned priorities according to which directory they
|
|
// were loaded from. The later a directory occurs in the list of CDI
|
|
// directories to scan, the higher priority Spec files loaded from that
|
|
// directory are assigned to. When two or more Spec files define the
|
|
// same device, conflict is resolved by chosing the definition from the
|
|
// Spec file with the highest priority.
|
|
//
|
|
// The default CDI directory configuration is chosen to encourage
|
|
// separating dynamically generated CDI Spec files from static ones.
|
|
// The default directories are '/etc/cdi' and '/var/run/cdi'. By putting
|
|
// dynamically generated Spec files under '/var/run/cdi', those take
|
|
// precedence over static ones in '/etc/cdi'.
