CPUs that a PerformanceProfile marks as offline are sometimes coming back online after a reboot:

The RHCOS CPU hotplug rule, shipped read-only in
/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/40-redhat-hotplug.rules , re-onlines CPUs on udev
"add" events, which races with NTO's set-cpus-offline.service. When the
udev rule wins, the CPUs actually offlined on the node are only a subset
of those defined in the profile's spec.cpu.offlined.

Fix this by shadowing the existing rule with a same-named, empty file
under /etc/udev/rules.d, which udev prefers over /usr/lib, so the rule
no longer re-onlines the offlined CPUs.

Note: We are currently in contact with the RHCOS team to remove or modify this rule upstream.
If they agree to drop the rule, this temporary workaround can be safely reverted.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Prevented system hotplug behavior from re-enabling CPUs configured as offlined.
    • Ensured configured-offline CPUs remain offline after device events.
    • Updated generated MachineConfigs consistently across supported performance profile configurations.
    • Simplified IRQ affinity handling by removing obsolete default SMP affinity adjustments.

Walkthrough

MachineConfig generation now adds a comment-only udev hotplug rule when CPUs are configured as offline. The rendered MachineConfig fixtures include the new mode-0644 file entry.

Changes

Offline CPU hotplug rule

Layer / File(s) Summary
Generate the hotplug rule
pkg/performanceprofile/controller/performanceprofile/components/machineconfig/machineconfig.go, assets/performanceprofile/configs/40-redhat-hotplug.rules
When CPUs are configured as offline, the generator reads the asset and writes /etc/udev/rules.d/40-redhat-hotplug.rules with mode 0644. Asset read failures return an error.
Update rendered MachineConfig fixtures
test/e2e/performanceprofile/testdata/render-expected-output/.../manual_machineconfig.yaml
Expected outputs include the comment-only hotplug rule with mode 420, which corresponds to 0644.

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

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 115e1

The change disables the conflicting CPU hotplug rule so CPUs marked offline remain offline after reboot; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 10 functions across 3 files. (5 skipped: 5 unsupported.)

Full details: Stable And Deterministic Test Names

Explanation

PASS: The pull request changes one implementation file, one asset, and expected MachineConfig YAML files. It adds no test files or Ginkgo declarations. Searches of all added lines and structural searches of changed Go files found no It, Describe, Context, or When titles, dynamic or otherwise.

Full details: Test Structure And Quality

Explanation

PASS. The pull request changes one Go implementation file, one asset, and four expected-output YAML fixtures. It does not add or modify Ginkgo test code. The YAML files are render-test fixtures consumed by the existing render_test.go; no changed It, BeforeEach, AfterEach, Eventually, or Consistently block introduces a quality failure. The implementation also performs no cluster operation or test resource creation.

Full details: Microshift Test Compatibility

Explanation

PASS: The pull request adds no Ginkgo e2e tests. The diff contains one Go implementation change, one asset, and four expected-output YAML fixture updates. Structural searches found no added It, Describe, Context, or When declarations, and no MicroShift-incompatible API references in changed Go code. The custom check is therefore not triggered.

Full details: Single Node Openshift (Sno) Test Compatibility

Explanation

PASS — The pull request adds no new Ginkgo e2e tests. The commit changes one production Go file, one udev asset, and expected MachineConfig YAML fixtures. Therefore, the SNO multi-node test compatibility check is not applicable.

Full details: Topology-Aware Scheduling Compatibility

Explanation

PASS — The pull request adds only a MachineConfig-managed udev rules file. The controller change runs when spec.cpu.offlined is set and writes /etc/udev/rules.d/40-redhat-hotplug.rules; it does not add or modify Deployments, pod affinity, topology spread, replica counts, node selectors, tolerations, or PDBs. The exact diff contains no scheduling constraints covered by this check.

Full details: Ote Binary Stdout Contract

Explanation

PASS. The PR changes only MachineConfig generation, an embedded udev-rule asset, and expected YAML fixtures. The added code reads the embedded asset and passes its bytes to addContent; it does not call fmt.Print*, log.Print*, klog, or write to os.Stdout. The diff does not modify the OTE main(), suite setup, or any process-level initializer. The added comment text is MachineConfig file content, not process stdout.

Full details: Ipv6 And Disconnected Network Test Compatibility

Explanation

PASS: The pull request adds no new Ginkgo e2e tests. The diff contains one Go implementation change, one rules asset, and four YAML expected-output updates. The added Go lines contain no It, Describe, Context, When, or other Ginkgo declarations. The added content contains no IPv4 addresses, public hosts, external URLs, or connectivity logic.

Full details: No-Weak-Crypto

Explanation

PASS: The commit changes only udev-rule asset handling and generated MachineConfig data. The added Go code reads the comment-only asset and writes it with mode 0644 when spec.cpu.offlined is set. The asset and decoded MachineConfig entries contain no MD5, SHA1, DES, RC4, 3DES, Blowfish, ECB, cryptographic code, or secret/token comparisons. No custom crypto implementation was introduced.

Full details: Container-Privileges

Explanation

The pull request changes only the MachineConfig generator, a comment-only udev asset, and MachineConfig render fixtures. The added lines introduce no privileged: true, hostPID, hostNetwork, hostIPC, SYS_ADMIN, or allowPrivilegeEscalation settings. The changed YAML documents are kind: MachineConfig; their new mode: 420 entry is file metadata, not a container security context. Existing privilege settings elsewhere are outside this pull request.

Full details: No-Sensitive-Data-In-Logs

Explanation

PASS. The pull request adds no logging statements. The changed code reads a static udev-rule asset and embeds comment-only content in a MachineConfig when CPU offlining is configured. The exact added lines contain no passwords, tokens, API keys, PII, session IDs, internal hostnames, or customer data. Existing klog calls are unchanged.

addContent sets the generated file mode to 0644 (420). getFilesDiff compares the unmarshaled YAML objects without applying a default, so the missing field can fail the render test. Regenerate the expected outputs or add mode: 420 to each entry.

Derive the child Ginkgo timeout from the pod wait budget. createLatencyTestPod can wait 120 seconds for PodRunning, then runtime + delay + timeoutBuffer seconds for PodSucceeded. Positive cases run with -ginkgo.timeout 200s; the 30-second case with delay 140 and the default buffer 150 therefore needs 320 seconds after startup, while the buffer-155 case leaves only 15 seconds for startup. Set the child timeout from these values, with suitable margin.

"add" events, which races with NTO's set-cpus-offline service. When the
udev rule wins, the CPUs actually offlined on the node are only a subset
of those defined in the profile's spec.cpu.offlined.
Fix this by shadowing the existing rule with a same-named, empty file
under /etc/udev/rules.d, which udev prefers over /usr/lib, so the rule
no longer re-onlines the offlined CPUs.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

  • Added configurable timeout buffering for latency tests, with a 150-second default.

  • Added validation for timeout values and clearer guidance when tests exceed the configured limit.

  • Improved CPU offlining configuration by preventing conflicting vendor hotplug rules from re-enabling CPUs.

  • Documentation

  • Documented the latency-test timeout buffer setting and how it accounts for setup and completion overhead.

  • Tests

  • Added coverage for valid, invalid, and custom timeout-buffer configurations.

I would actually make the file non-empty and put a comment explaining why the shadowing was installed into it. This will help support engineers and even us devels if we ever come across a bug or a customer case with a system where this plays a role.

From the PR description:

Rephrase: Issue: CPUs that a PerformanceProfile marks as offline are sometimes coming back online after a reboot.

the sentence looks like it start from the middle.

Also, can we add a comment (can be in the PR description) why didn't we remove the redhat hotplug service from RHCOS? IIRC we said that OCP doesn't support hotplug anyway

I would actually make the file non-empty and put a comment explaining why the shadowing was installed into it. This will help support engineers and even us devels if we ever come across a bug or a customer case with a system where this plays a role.

Added some comments in the file as requested, describing its role.

CPUs that a PerformanceProfile marks as offline are sometimes coming back online after a reboot.
