What type of PR is this?
Bug Fix

What this PR does / why we need it:

GenerateResourceRequests in the nvidia backend converts user-controlled int64 resource limits (device count, memory, cores) into the int32 fields of ContainerDeviceRequest (Nums, Memreq, Coresreq) without bounds checking. A value exceeding math.MaxInt32 silently wraps to a small or negative number that flows into Fit(). Since nvidia is the default and most widely used backend, this is the highest-impact instance of the overflow class already fixed elsewhere.

Concretely, nvidia.com/gpumem: 16Gi (a plausible wrong-unit mistake, since gpumem is counted in MB) yields AsInt64() == 17179869184, and int32(17179869184) == 0. Because the raw int value is non-zero, the mempnum == 101 && memnum == 0 default is skipped, so Memreq/MemPercentagereq land at 0/101. In Fit() the k.Memreq > 0 branch is false and the MemPercentagereq != 101 branch is false, so memreq stays 0 and the Totalmem - Usedmem < memreq check can never reject the card. The pod is booked with zero GPU memory reservation, causing oversubscription and OOM for other workloads on the same card.

This PR adds range guards that return the existing empty ContainerDeviceRequest{} rejection sentinel before every int32() narrowing, matching the pattern from #2388 (hygon, metax-sgpu) and #2601 (ascend). Memory is guarded both before and after the MemoryFactor multiplication, and negative quantities are rejected by sign first.

Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
Fixes #2718

Special notes for your reviewer:

Does this PR introduce a user-facing change?:

Oversized or invalid NVIDIA device resource requests (for example a gpumem request such as 16Gi, or values exceeding the int32 range) are now rejected instead of silently wrapping to an incorrect value.

AI assistance disclosure: I used AI assistance (opencode) to help audit the backends, implement the guards, and draft the regression tests. I reviewed the change and verified the new tests fail without the guards and pass with them.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • NVIDIA resource requests with negative, excessively large, or overflowing GPU, memory, scaled memory, and core values are now rejected safely.
    • Invalid requests return an empty device request instead of being silently accepted or wrapping to incorrect values.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for out-of-range values and memory scaling overflow scenarios.

GenerateResourceRequests narrowed user-controlled int64 limits (device
count, memory, cores) into the int32 fields of ContainerDeviceRequest
(Nums, Memreq, Coresreq) without bounds checking. A value over
math.MaxInt32 silently wrapped to a small or negative number that flowed
into Fit(), letting the scheduler place pods onto overcommitted GPUs.

Concretely, nvidia.com/gpumem: 16Gi yields AsInt64() = 17179869184, and
int32(17179869184) == 0. Because the raw int value is non-zero, the
mempnum == 101 && memnum == 0 default is skipped, so Memreq/MemPercentagereq
land at 0/101. In Fit() the k.Memreq > 0 branch is false and the
MemPercentagereq != 101 branch is false, so memreq stays 0 and the
Totalmem - Usedmem < memreq check can never reject the card. The pod is
booked with zero GPU memory reservation, causing oversubscription and OOM.

Guard every narrowing point before the int32 cast, returning the existing
empty ContainerDeviceRequest{} rejection sentinel, matching the pattern
already applied to hygon and metax-sgpu in Project-HAMi#2388 and ascend in Project-HAMi#2601.
Memory guards cover both the pre-factor value and the value after
MemoryFactor scaling, and negative quantities are rejected by sign first
since a negative fractional quantity such as -1m returns ok=false from
AsInt64. The memory error message states that nvidia memory is treated as
MB not Byte, since a request like 16Gi is almost always a wrong-unit
mistake.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

NVIDIA resource request parsing now validates GPU, memory, scaled memory, and core values before int32 conversion. Invalid values return an empty device request and log an error. Tests cover negative values, int32 overflow, and MemoryFactor multiplication overflow.

Changes

NVIDIA request validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Validate NVIDIA resource values
pkg/device/nvidia/device.go
GenerateResourceRequests rejects invalid GPU, memory, scaled memory, and core values before constructing the device request.
Test rejected resource requests
pkg/device/nvidia/device_test.go
Table-driven tests verify empty requests for negative values, oversized values, and MemoryFactor multiplication overflow.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 12e9c

Negative fractional NVIDIA core requests such as -1m can still bypass validation and be accepted with default cores, potentially misrepresenting GPU allocation. The PR is not merge-ready until these invalid requests are rejected.

Poem

I’m a rabbit guarding numbers tight,
No wrapped GPU requests slip by tonight.
Memory bounds stand firm and clear,
Core checks thump with floppy ears.
Empty requests stop overflow’s flight!

Kubernetes apimachinery v0.36.3 resource.Quantity AsInt64 source fractional negative quantity

💡 Result:

In Kubernetes apimachinery v0.36.3, the resource.Quantity.AsInt64 method is designed to return a value as an int64 only if a "fast conversion" is possible [1][2]. Regarding the specific conditions mentioned: 1. Fractional Quantities: If a Quantity is stored as a decimal (which occurs for fractional values), AsInt64 will return 0 and false [1][2]. It does not attempt to truncate or round fractional values to an int64; instead, it indicates that the caller must use the internal decimal representation (inf.Dec) to handle the precision [1][3]. 2. Negative Quantities: AsInt64 handles negative values correctly if they are represented in the int64 form (i.e., not stored as a decimal) [4]. The underlying int64Amount type supports negative values, and AsInt64 will return the correct negative integer and true, provided the value is within the range of an int64 and does not require decimal precision [4]. Key points for developers: - Return value: AsInt64 returns (int64, bool) [1][2]. The boolean return value is critical; a false value indicates that the quantity is currently stored as a decimal (either due to fractional components or because it was promoted to the decimal path) and cannot be accurately represented as a simple int64 [3][2]. - Scaling: If you need to perform calculations on scaled values (e.g., converting a quantity to a specific unit like bytes or GiB), it is recommended to use AsScaledInt64 instead [3][4]. This method provides explicit control over scaling and rounding, which is safer for handling varied quantity formats [4]. - Recent Updates: As of v0.36.3, improvements have been made to the parsing path (e.g., handling values near math.MaxInt64) to ensure that more valid integer-based quantities successfully use the fast path, avoiding unnecessary decimal promotion [5].

Reject negative fractional core quantities before AsInt64.

resource.Quantity.AsInt64() returns ok=false for -1m. The current code then keeps DefaultCores and returns a non-empty request. Check core.Sign() < 0 before AsInt64(). Add a resource.MustParse("-1m") case to Test_GenerateResourceRequests_OutOfRangeValues.

[warning] 601-601: Narrowing a non-constant integer to a smaller fixed-width type (int8/int16/int32, uint8/uint16/uint32) can silently overflow or wrap, yielding negative or truncated values that are dangerous in size, length, or index logic. Validate the source value is within the target type's range before converting (e.g. bounds-check, or use a checked helper), and avoid narrowing untrusted or len()/parsed values.
