…ation NVCA's mutating webhook attached an IMEX ComputeDomain channel resource claim to every GPU-requesting Pod on an NVLink-optimized cluster, regardless of whether the Pod actually needed cross-node NVLink memory sharing. Since each node exposes only one DRA channel device, this made any claiming Pod the exclusive GPU tenant of its node, capping bin-packing at one GPU Pod per node cluster-wide. Gate ComputeDomain and channel claim attachment on the existing dra.nvcf.nvidia.io/required-nvlink-domain-index annotation's presence: a Pod that never set it was never depending on ComputeDomain-backed placement guarantees, so removing its claim is not a breaking change. Also fix a corollary issue: NVCA created a single shared ComputeDomain for a whole function regardless of how many distinct domain-index values were present, when a ComputeDomain represents one IMEX domain and each distinct index is meant to be an independent NVLink domain. pkg/dra now creates one ComputeDomain per distinct index and the reconciler passes the resulting raw-value-to-ComputeDomain mapping to the webhook through the existing miniservice metadata ConfigMap, since index normalization must happen once, across the whole set of a function's rendered objects. While wiring this up, also fix an annotation-location bug in the existing domain-index grouping logic: it read annotations off the top-level controller object (Deployment/StatefulSet/etc.) instead of its Pod template, which is the only location Kubernetes copies onto the Pods the webhook admits. Update docs/user/helm-functions.md and docs/user/cluster-management/topology-aware-scheduling.md: the required-nvlink-domain-index annotation was documented as optional legacy scheduling guidance; it is now also the required signal for ComputeDomain allocation.

Prune obsolete ComputeDomains during workload updates. When a Helm-values update removes dra.nvcf.nvidia.io/required-nvlink-domain-index, doUpdateWorkload only applies workload objects and does not reconcile or delete ComputeDomain objects. The previous ComputeDomain and its nvcf-cd-channel-* IMEX infrastructure can remain active. Reconcile the desired ComputeDomain set during updates and delete obsolete objects for this MiniService.

Include the offending workload identity in the wrapped annotation error.
ComputeDomainsForWorkload scans all workloadObjs, and the caller converts a parse failure into a terminal compute NVLink ComputeDomains error. Include the annotation name, value, and offending object identity in the %w wrapper. The annotation name and value alone do not identify which workload requires correction.

Add structured telemetry to the NVLink DRA allocation path. When AttrNVLinkOptimized is enabled for a new Pod, mutateNVLinkDRA can add a ComputeDomain claim, but this branch has no log or trace with request, function, cluster, and organization context. The enclosing InstrumentedHook provides only webhook-level RED metrics.

The annotation isn't yet a reliable proxy for "needs MNNVL", and the gap is large. I measured this on a live GB300 cluster: only 2 of 13 GPU functions set required-nvlink-domain-index, and 114 of 118 GPU pods currently hold an IMEX channel claim this PR would strip. Of those 114, only 7 are the sub-node workers this PR is meant to fix, the other 107 are whole-node workers on multi-node instance types, including several on a 4-node (_4x.x4) instance type. |
miniservice_types.go imports pkg/dra, but pkg/types/BUILD.bazel never declared it. Bazel enforces strict dependencies, so the nvca build fails with "missing strict dependencies: ... import of github.com/NVIDIA/nvcf/src/compute-plane-services/nvca/pkg/dra". Plain go build does not enforce this, so only the Bazel job catches it. Signed-off-by: vemireddyv <vemireddyv@nvidia.com>

For now, #1940 should supersede the part of this that opts out pods that do not have the |
TL;DR
Gates NVCA's NVLink
ComputeDomainand IMEX channel claim allocation onthe
dra.nvcf.nvidia.io/required-nvlink-domain-indexannotation'spresence, instead of attaching a claim to every GPU-requesting Pod, and
creates one
ComputeDomainper distinct annotation value instead of oneshared domain for the whole function.
Additional Details (optional for docs, build, test, refactor, ci, chore, style, and revert PRs)
required-nvlink-domain-indexwere neverdepending on ComputeDomain-backed placement guarantees, but were still
claiming their node's single DRA channel device, capping bin-packing
at one GPU Pod per node cluster-wide on any NVLink-optimized cluster.
pkg/webhook/miniservice_mutating_webhook.go)now only attaches a channel claim when the annotation is present, and
looks up which
ComputeDomainto reference from a raw-value-to-ComputeDomainmapping computed once by the MiniService reconciler
(
internal/miniservice/reconcile.go) and passed through the existingnvcf-miniservice-metadataConfigMap.pkg/dra/dra.goaddsComputeDomainsForWorkload, which scans afunction's rendered workload objects once, groups Pods by distinct
required-domain-index value, and returns one
ComputeDomainpergroup. It also fixes an annotation-location inconsistency: the
existing domain-index grouping logic was reading annotations off the
top-level controller object (Deployment/StatefulSet/etc.) rather than
its Pod template, which is the only location Kubernetes actually
copies onto the Pods the webhook admits.
docs/user/helm-functions.mdanddocs/user/cluster-management/topology-aware-scheduling.md: therequired-nvlink-domain-indexannotation was previously documented asoptional/legacy scheduling guidance; it is now also the required
signal for
ComputeDomainallocation, so the docs are correctedaccordingly.
