The current GPU installer was built in 2017, from source that no longer
exists in Kubernetes ([adding commit][1]. The image was built on 2017-06-13.
Unfortunately, this installer no longer appears to work. When debugging
on the same node type as used by test-infra, it failed to build the
driver as the kernel sha was no longer available.
This lead to needing to find a new way to install GPUs. The smallest
logical change was switching to [cos-gpu-installer][2]
. There is a newer version of this available on [googlesource][3] that
I have not yet tested as it's not clear what the state of the project
is, as I couldn't find docs outside of the source itself.
We install things to the same location as previously to avoid needing
extra downstream changes. There are a couple of weird issues here
however, like needing to run the container twice to correctly update the
LD Cache.

Kubernetes (K8s)

Kubernetes, also known as K8s, is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts. It provides basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications.
Kubernetes builds upon a decade and a half of experience at Google running production workloads at scale using a system called Borg, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community.
Kubernetes is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). If your company wants to help shape the evolution of technologies that are container-packaged, dynamically scheduled, and microservices-oriented, consider joining the CNCF. For details about who's involved and how Kubernetes plays a role, read the CNCF announcement.
To start using K8s
See our documentation on kubernetes.io.
Try our interactive tutorial.
Take a free course on Scalable Microservices with Kubernetes.
To use Kubernetes code as a library in other applications, see the list of published components.
Use of the k8s.io/kubernetes
module or k8s.io/kubernetes/...
packages as libraries is not supported.
To start developing K8s
The community repository hosts all information about building Kubernetes from source, how to contribute code and documentation, who to contact about what, etc.
If you want to build Kubernetes right away there are two options:
You have a working Go environment.
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/k8s.io
cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
cd kubernetes
make
You have a working Docker environment.
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
cd kubernetes
make quick-release
For the full story, head over to the developer's documentation.
Support
If you need support, start with the troubleshooting guide, and work your way through the process that we've outlined.
That said, if you have questions, reach out to us one way or another.
