Previously, the verious Merge() policies of the TopologyManager all
eturned their own lifecycle.PodAdmitResult result. However, for
consistency in any failed admits, this is better handled in the
top-level Topology manager, with each policy only returning a boolean
about whether or not they would like to admit the pod or not. This
commit changes the semantics to match this logic.
- Move remaining logic from mergeProvidersHints to generic top level
mergeFilteredHints function.
- Add numaNodes as parameter in order to make generic.
- Move single NUMA node specific check to single-numa-node Merge
function.
- Move initial 'filtering' functionality to generic function
filterProvidersHints level policy.go.
- Call new function from top level Merge function.
- Rename some variables/parameters to reflect changes.
- Remove need to pass policy and numaNodes as arguments
- Remove PolicySingleNUMANode special case check in policy_best_effort
- Add mergeProviderHints base to policy_single_numa_node for upcoming
commit
This abstraction moves the responsibility of merging topology hints to
the individual policies themselves. As part of this, it removes the
CanAdmitPodResult() API from the policy abstraction, and rolls it into a
second return value from Merge()
These policies only differ on whether they admit the pod or not when a
TopologyHint is preferred or not. As such, the restricted policy should
simply inherit whatever it can from the best effort policy and only
overwrite what is necessary.
This does not matter for now, but will become important when we add a
new 'Merge()' abstraction to a Policy later on.
Previously it only took a bool, which limited the logic it could perform
to determine if a pod should be admitted or not based on the merged hint
from the policy.
