What this PR does / why we need it

HAMi's resource request calculation accounts for device requests from both init containers and regular containers. However, the device node-locking implementations were checking only pod.Spec.Containers.

As a result, a pod with a HAMi GPU/device request exclusively in an init container could be scheduled and have its resources accounted for without acquiring the corresponding device node lock.

This creates an inconsistency between resource accounting and node locking and can allow concurrent scheduling operations to bypass the synchronization intended for device allocation.

Changes

  • Added PodRequiresDevice() in pkg/device/devices.go to determine whether a pod requires a particular device.
  • The helper checks both InitContainers and regular Containers.
  • Updated the affected device backends to use the shared helper for LockNode() and ReleaseNodeLock().
  • Added regression coverage for init-container-only and combined init/regular container requests.
  • Preserved existing backend-specific locking behavior.

Affected device backends

  • NVIDIA
  • Hygon
  • Cambricon
  • Iluvatar
  • Biren
  • MetaX
  • Kunlun
  • AMD
  • Ascend
  • VASTAI

Which issue(s) does this PR fix?

Fixes #2745

Regression coverage

The tests cover:

  • Regular-container-only device requests.
  • Init-container-only device requests.
  • Device requests in both init and regular containers.
  • Pods without relevant device requests.
  • LockNode() behavior.
  • ReleaseNodeLock() behavior.
  • Nil pod/device inputs for the shared helper.
  • Multiple affected device backends.

The init-container-only regression cases fail against the previous Spec.Containers-only implementation and pass with this fix.

Validation

  • go test ./pkg/device/... — 12/13 packages passed.
  • NVIDIA tests are blocked by the local NVML/CGO environment and are unrelated to this change.
  • go vet ./pkg/device/{amd,ascend,biren,cambricon,hygon,iluvatar,kunlun,metax,vastai}/... — passed.
  • git diff --check — passed.
  • gofmt — verified.

Does this PR introduce a user-facing change?

No.

This is a scheduler/device-locking correctness fix. It ensures that init-container device requests receive the same node-lock treatment as equivalent regular-container requests.

Special notes for reviewers

The fix intentionally centralizes device-request detection instead of maintaining separate InitContainers/Containers loops across each device backend.

PodRequiresDevice() uses the same GenerateResourceRequests() semantics as the existing resource-request calculation and checks init containers before regular containers.

Cambricon's existing unconditional ReleaseNodeLock() behavior is preserved because its locking mechanism differs from the pod-keyed node-lock implementation used by the other affected backends.

No changes were made to the node-lock recovery implementation from PR #2733.

AI Assistance Disclosure

AI assistance from Claude and Antigravity was used during codebase investigation, root-cause analysis, implementation assistance, regression-test development, code review, and validation of this change.

The final implementation was reviewed against the existing HAMi codebase and device-locking behavior. The contributor independently verified the affected backends, confirmed that the shared helper matches the existing resource-request semantics, reviewed the resulting diff, and ran the relevant tests, vet, formatting, and diff checks.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved device requirement detection for pods using init containers, regular containers, or both.
    • Node locking and unlocking now consistently occur only when a pod requests the relevant device.
  • Tests

    • Expanded coverage for device requests across container types, including pods without device requirements and mixed requests.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds shared pod device detection across init and regular containers. Supported device backends use this check before node lock operations. Tests cover lock acquisition and release for both container types.

Changes

Device node locking

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared pod device detection
pkg/device/devices.go, pkg/device/devices_test.go
Added PodRequiresDevice, with nil checks and resource checks across init and regular containers. Added table-driven tests for request combinations.
Backend locking integration
pkg/device/amd/device.go, pkg/device/ascend/device.go, pkg/device/biren/device.go, pkg/device/cambricon/device.go, pkg/device/hygon/device.go, pkg/device/iluvatar/device.go, pkg/device/kunlun/vdevice.go, pkg/device/metax/sdevice.go, pkg/device/nvidia/device.go, pkg/device/vastai/device.go
Replaced duplicated regular-container scans with PodRequiresDevice checks before node lock acquisition and release.
Backend lock regression coverage
pkg/device/biren/device_test.go, pkg/device/hygon/device_test.go, pkg/device/kunlun/vdevice_test.go, pkg/device/nvidia/device_test.go
Added cases for regular-container, init-container, combined, and no-device requests. Release tests use pod-specific lock annotations where required.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3d148

The scheduler fix correctly extends device locking to init-container requests, but a duplicate test function in the NVIDIA device tests prevents the package from type-checking. Merge should wait until the test issue is removed or explicitly accepted.

Poem

A rabbit checks each pod with care,
Init and regular requests share.
Locks now guard the paths they need,
Tests hop after every seed.
GPUs stay safe beneath the moon.

Comment thread pkg/device/nvidia/device_test.go Outdated
Device backends (nvidia, hygon, cambricon, iluvatar, biren, metax,
kunlun, amd, ascend, vastai) previously checked only p.Spec.Containers
when deciding whether to call nodelock.LockNode / ReleaseNodeLock.
Pods that request GPUs or other accelerators exclusively via
InitContainers therefore never acquired the node lock, creating a
scheduling race with other pods targeting the same node.

Introduce a shared helper PodRequiresDevice(dev Devices, p *corev1.Pod)
in pkg/device/devices.go that iterates both p.Spec.InitContainers and
p.Spec.Containers, and replace the duplicated per-backend loops with a
single call to this helper in LockNode and ReleaseNodeLock across all
10 affected backends.

Regression tests added:
- TestPodRequiresDevice in pkg/device/devices_test.go
- TestLockNode in nvidia/device_test.go extended with init-only and
  init+regular GPU request cases
- TestReleaseNodeLock added to nvidia/device_test.go
- TestDevices_LockNode in hygon/device_test.go extended with
  init-container and init+regular cases
- TestDevices_ReleaseNodeLock in hygon/device_test.go extended with
  per-case lock annotations and an init-container release case
