Evan Lezar ddebd69128 Use installed hook path in toolkit container
This change uses the installed NVIDIA Container Runtime Hook wrapper
as the path in the applied config. This prevents conflicts with other
installations of the NVIDIA Container Toolkit.

Introduction

This repository contains tools that allow docker, containerd, or cri-o to be configured to use the NVIDIA Container Toolkit.

Note: These were copied from the container-config repository are being migrated to commands installed with the NVIDIA Container Toolkit.

These will be migrated into an upcoming nvidia-ctk CLI as required.

Docker

After building the docker binary, run:

docker setup \
    --runtime-name NAME \
        /run/nvidia/toolkit

Configure the nvidia-container-runtime as a docker runtime named NAME. If the --runtime-name flag is not specified, this runtime would be called nvidia. A runtime named nvidia-experimental will also be configured using the nvidia-container-runtime.experimental OCI-compliant runtime shim.

Since --set-as-default is enabled by default, the specified runtime name will also be set as the default docker runtime. This can be disabled by explicityly specifying --set-as-default=false.

Note: If --runtime-name is specified as nvidia-experimental explicitly, the nvidia-experimental runtime will be configured as the default runtime, with the nvidia runtime still configured and available for use.

The following table describes the behaviour for different --runtime-name and --set-as-default flag combinations.

Flags Installed Runtimes Default Runtime
NONE SPECIFIED nvidia, nvidia-experimental nvidia
--runtime-name nvidia nvidia, nvidia-experimental nvidia
--runtime-name NAME NAME, nvidia-experimental NAME
--runtime-name nvidia-experimental nvidia, nvidia-experimental nvidia-experimental
--set-as-default nvidia, nvidia-experimental nvidia
--set-as-default --runtime-name nvidia nvidia, nvidia-experimental nvidia
--set-as-default --runtime-name NAME NAME, nvidia-experimental NAME
--set-as-default --runtime-name nvidia-experimental nvidia, nvidia-experimental nvidia-experimental
--set-as-default=false nvidia, nvidia-experimental NOT SET
--set-as-default=false --runtime-name NAME NAME, nvidia-experimental NOT SET
--set-as-default=false --runtime-name nvidia nvidia, nvidia-experimental NOT SET
--set-as-default=false --runtime-name nvidia-experimental nvidia, nvidia-experimental NOT SET

These combinations also hold for the environment variables that map to the command line flags: DOCKER_RUNTIME_NAME, DOCKER_SET_AS_DEFAULT.

Containerd

After running the containerd binary, run:

containerd setup \
    --runtime-class NAME \
        /run/nvidia/toolkit

Configure the nvidia-container-runtime as a runtime class named NAME. If the --runtime-class flag is not specified, this runtime would be called nvidia. A runtime class named nvidia-experimental will also be configured using the nvidia-container-runtime.experimental OCI-compliant runtime shim.

Adding the --set-as-default flag as follows:

containerd setup \
    --runtime-class NAME \
    --set-as-default \
        /run/nvidia/toolkit

will set the runtime class NAME (or nvidia if not specified) as the default runtime class.

Note: If --runtime-class is specified as nvidia-experimental explicitly and --set-as-default is specified, the nvidia-experimental runtime will be configured as the default runtime class, with the nvidia runtime class still configured and available for use.

The following table describes the behaviour for different --runtime-class and --set-as-default flag combinations.

Flags Installed Runtime Classes Default Runtime Class
NONE SPECIFIED nvidia, nvidia-experimental NOT SET
--runtime-class NAME NAME, nvidia-experimental NOT SET
--runtime-class nvidia nvidia, nvidia-experimental NOT SET
--runtime-class nvidia-experimental nvidia, nvidia-experimental NOT SET
--set-as-default nvidia, nvidia-experimental nvidia
--set-as-default --runtime-class NAME NAME, nvidia-experimental NAME
--set-as-default --runtime-class nvidia nvidia, nvidia-experimental nvidia
--set-as-default --runtime-class nvidia-experimental nvidia, nvidia-experimental nvidia-experimental

These combinations also hold for the environment variables that map to the command line flags.
