Fabiano Fidêncio 51ffafa0ac kernel: Add MLX5 modules image build infrastructure
Add config fragment, build script, and CI integration for building
Mellanox MLX5/InfiniBand kernel modules as a standalone disk image.

The orchestrator script (build-kernel-modules-images.sh) builds the
kernel with extra module config fragments, runs modules_install,
filters modules by subsystem into per-set staging trees, and
packages each into its own disk image using build-modules-volume.sh.

Since these modules are built within the Kata CI using the same
KBUILD_SIGN_PIN, they are signed and loadable on the official
released Kata kernel.

Kata Containers packaging

Introduction

Kata Containers currently supports packages for many distributions. Tooling to aid in creating these packages are contained within this repository.

Build in a container

Kata build artifacts are available within a container image, created by a Dockerfile. Reference DaemonSets are provided in kata-deploy, which make installation of Kata Containers in a running Kubernetes Cluster very straightforward.

Build static binaries

See the static build documentation.

Build Kata Containers Kernel

See the kernel documentation.

Build QEMU

See the QEMU documentation.

Create a Kata Containers release

See the release documentation.

Packaging scripts

See the scripts documentation.
