Epic Goal

• Expose the new TuneD socket interface (1, 2) via NTO to allow dynamic per-cpu power-management tuning.
• Provide a PoC only with TuneD still running within a container or TuneD running on the host via the osImageURL until the in-cluster builds MCO dependency is ready.

Why is this important?

• Currently, the power management and other dynamic tuning is limited and performed via CRI-O annotations: cpu-c-states.crio.io, cpu-freq-governor.crio.io, irq-load-balancing.crio.io and cpu-balancing.crio.io CRI-O is getting overloaded by these annotations and extended in a way that makes it a superset of the Container Runtime Interface which makes it very vendor specific.  We want to remedy this situation and centralize the tuning with a component that is designed for that purpose – TuneD.

Scenarios

Acceptance Criteria

• CI - MUST be running successfully with tests automated
• Release Technical Enablement - Provide necessary release enablement details and documents.
• ...

Dependencies (internal and external)

1. Expose TuneD API to the Unix Domain Socket
2. Extend TuneD API to allow hotplugging/deplugging devices from the plugin instances at runtime
3. Cpus assigned hook point in CRI-O
4. Optional/nice-to-have: MCO in-cluster builds; MCO-375, MCO-306, MCO-307
5. Optional/nice-to-have: RFE: User-configured modification of system boot-related files

Previous Work (Optional):

1. NTO and OpenShift CoreOS Layering
2.
