Set Up Pods to Use SRIOV

You can configure pods with access to a Mount Bryce device by adding the appropriate 'resources' request in the pod specification.

The following procedure shows an example of launching a container image with 'resources' request for a to the Mount Bryce device.

1. Source the platform environment.

   $ source /etc/platform/openrc ~(keystone_admin)$

2. Create a pod.yml file.

   ~(keystone_admin)$ cat >> pod0.yml << EOF
     apiVersion: v1
     kind: Pod
     metadata:
       name: pod0
     spec:
     restartPolicy: Never
     containers:
     - name: pod0
       image: "windse/pktgen-testpmd-bbdev:d1911r4p1912" volumeMounts: -
       mountPath: /mnt/huge-1048576kB
         name: hugepage
       - mountPath: /sys/devices
         name: uio
       command: ["/bin/bash", "-ec", "sleep infinity"] securityContext:
         privileged: false capabilities:
           add:
             ["IPC_LOCK", "SYS_ADMIN"]
       resources:
         requests:
           hugepages-1Gi: 4Gi memory: 4Gi intel.com/intel_acc100_fec: '16'
           windriver.com/isolcpus: '24'
         limits:
           hugepages-1Gi: 4Gi memory: 4Gi intel.com/intel_acc100_fec: '16'
           windriver.com/isolcpus: '24'
     volumes: - name: hugepage
       emptyDir:
         medium: HugePages
     - name: uio
       hostPath:
         path: /sys/devices
   EOF

3. Start the pod.

   ~(keystone_admin)$ kubectl create -f pod0.yml

4. Wait for the pod to start and execute the following command:

   ~(keystone_admin)$ kubectl exec -it pod0 -- bash echo
   $PCIDEVICE_INTEL_COM_INTEL_ACC100_FEC

   The following PCI addresses corresponding to the are displayed:
