While currently those objects only get published by the kubelet for node-local
resources, this could change once we also support network-attached
resources. Dropping the "Node" prefix enables such a future extension.
The NodeName in ResourceSlice and StructuredResourceHandle then becomes
optional. The kubelet still needs to provide one and it must match its own node
name, otherwise it doesn't have permission to access ResourceSlice objects.
NodeResourceSlice will be used by kubelet to publish resource information on
behalf of DRA drivers on the node. NodeName and DriverName in
NodeResourceSlice must be immutable. This simplifies tracking the different
objects because what they are for cannot change after creation.
The new field in ResourceClass tells scheduler and autoscaler that they are
expected to handle allocation.
ResourceClaimParameters and ResourceClassParameters are new types for telling
in-tree components how to handle claims.
KEP-2593 proposed to expand the existing node-ipam controller
to be configurable via a ClusterCIDR objects, however, there
were reasonable doubts on the SIG about the feature and after
several months of dicussions we decided to not move forward
with the KEP intree, hence, we are going to remove the existing
code, that is still in alpha.
