![]() it traverses and watch plugin directory and its sub directory recursively, plugin socket file only need be unique within one directory, - plugin socket directory - | - ---->sub directory 1 - | | - | -----> socket1, socket2 ... - ----->sub directory 2 - | - ------> socket1, socket2 ... the design itself allow sub directory be anything, but in practical, each plugin type could just use one sub directory. four bonus changes added as below 1. extract example handler out from test, it is easier to read the code with the seperation. 2. there are two variables here: "Watcher" and "watcher". "Watcher" is the plugin watcher, and "watcher" is the fsnotify watcher. so rename the "watcher" to "fsWatcher" to make code easier to understand. 3. change RegisterCallbackFn() return value order, it is conventional to return error last, after this change, the pkg/volume/csi is compliance with golint, so remove it from hack/.golint_failures 4. refactor errors handling at invokeRegistrationCallbackAtHandler() to make error message more clear. |

This folder contains a utility, pluginwatcher, for Kubelet to register different types of node-level plugins such as device plugins or CSI plugins. It discovers plugins by monitoring inotify events under the directory returned by kubelet.getPluginsDir(). Lets refer this directory as PluginsSockDir. For any discovered plugin, pluginwatcher issues Registration.GetInfo grpc call to get plugin type, name and supported service API versions. For any registered plugin type, pluginwatcher calls the registered callback function with the received plugin name, supported service API versions, and the full socket path. The Kubelet component that receives this callback can acknowledge or reject the plugin according to its own logic, and use the socket path to establish its service communication with any API version supported by the plugin. Here are the general rules that Kubelet plugin developers should follow: - Run as 'root' user. Currently creating socket under PluginsSockDir, a root owned directory, requires plugin process to be running as 'root'. - Implements the Registration service specified in pkg/kubelet/apis/pluginregistration/v*/api.proto. - The plugin name sent during Registration.GetInfo grpc should be unique for the given plugin type (CSIPlugin or DevicePlugin). - The socket path needs to be unique within one directory, in normal case, each plugin type has its own sub directory, but the design does support socket file under any sub directory of PluginSockDir. - A plugin should clean up its own socket upon exiting or when a new instance comes up. A plugin should NOT remove any sockets belonging to other plugins. - A plugin should make sure it has service ready for any supported service API version listed in the PluginInfo. - For an example plugin implementation, take a look at example_plugin.go included in this directory.
