Describe your changes

Adds the Trait Based Networking (TBN) capability to IronicConductor as a struct, this struct is an enum with the given states as 'Enabled' and 'Disabled'. If enabled there is validation that a configuration is provided. GetVolumeMounts has IronicConductor instance as a parameter for mounting the volume and copying to /etc/ironic/trait_based_networking.yaml based on whether TBN is enabled or not.

// Config - YAML content for the trait_based_networking.yaml configuration file.
// Required when state is "Enabled". Defines named traits and their port-scheduling
// actions. See the Ironic TBN documentation for the expected YAML format.
Config string `json:"config,omitempty"`

Having an unvalidated chunk of yaml inside a string property of a yaml CRD could become a problem.

The gold-plated option would be to fully represent the tbn schema in our CRD:
https://docs.openstack.org/ironic/latest/references/trait-based-networking/tbn-config-file.html

And this line would be something like:
Config map[string]TraitBasedNetworkingEntry 'json:"config,omitempty"'

Made Config a map from trait name to its entryTraitBasedNetworkingEntry and created two structs TraitBasedNetworkingEntry for the order and actions for a trait, and TraitBasedNetworkingAction for each action and its keys. I've set validation as optional for the non-necessary keys.

So, the CRD rules prevent using a map in this file, so what I've done is stored the traits into a slice, and in the controller file, build a map from the slice and marshal it into the yaml format that's expected by ironic.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added optional trait-based networking configuration for Ironic conductors.
    • Supports named traits, ordered port-scheduling actions, filters, and optional match-count limits.
    • Added enabled/disabled controls, with validation requiring configuration when enabled.
    • Automatically generates and mounts the networking configuration when activated.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for enabled configurations and confirmed omission when the feature is disabled.

Walkthrough

The PR adds trait-based networking configuration to the IronicConductor API and CRDs. The controller generates YAML configuration, mounts it into the conductor, renders enablement settings, and validates enabled and disabled cases.

Changes

Trait-based networking

Layer / File(s) Summary
Networking API contract
api/v1beta1/ironicconductor_types.go, api/bases/*, config/crd/bases/*, api/v1beta1/zz_generated.deepcopy.go
The API and CRD schemas define named traits, ordered actions, filters, count limits, state defaults, and enabled-state validation. Generated deep-copy methods support the new types.
Configuration generation and wiring
internal/controller/..., internal/ironicconductor/volumes.go, templates/ironicconductor/config/01-conductor.conf, go.mod
The controller serializes enabled traits to trait_based_networking.yaml. The conductor mounts the file and enables the related configuration options.
Enabled and disabled behavior validation
test/functional/ironicconductor_controller_test.go
Functional tests verify configuration generation when enabled and omission of the file and settings when not configured.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 37f94

When Trait Based Networking is enabled, invalid or duplicate trait names can produce malformed configuration or silently drop a configured trait, so the PR is not merge-ready until admission validation requires valid unique names.
