custom kubernetes device plugin using Intel's library
This is a sample implementation of a kubernetes device plugin using Intel's SDK library intel-device-plugin-for-kubernetes.
It demonstrates how to implement a custom k8s device plugin with it and be able to mount a device unto a pod within a kubernetes cluster. For instance, the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) chip.
Example manifests on how to deploy and use are under the examples directory
- Deploying the plugin is demonstrated in
examples/sample-plugin-daemonset.yaml, where it mounts the device under volumes and uses hostPath to locate its location from the host machine's /dev directory.
volumes:
- name: dev-mem
hostPath:
path: /dev/tpmrm0
- Once deployed the dependent pods should declare the appropriate namespace and device name being advertised by the plugin. As demonstrated in
examples/sample-plugin-usage.yaml, where it declares under its container's required resources.
