Customer Summary

NVCA was reporting incorrect GPU capacity for some instance types and omitting GPU usage data from heartbeats, causing ICMS to show stale or zero GPU availability for affected clusters.

TL;DR

  • Fixed getGPUUsageStats to identify single-node instance types by NodeType == SINGLE instead of a name suffix (_1x), which was missing instance types with non-standard names.
  • Added a nil-guard so GPUUsage is always initialized to an empty map, preventing omitempty from silently dropping the field from heartbeat JSON.
  • Removed omitempty from HealthStatusRequest.GPUUsage so the field is always present even when no GPUs are allocated.

Additional Details

The _1x suffix was a heuristic that worked for the common A100_1x naming convention but failed for instance types that don't follow that pattern. The NodeType field is the authoritative signal for whether an instance type targets a single node.

For the Reviewer

  • pkg/nvca/backendk8scache.go: Two changes — nil-guard on GPUUsage after getGPUUsageStats, and loop body now checks it.NodeType != SINGLE (early-continue) then breaks after accumulating the single matching entry per GPU.
  • pkg/types/types.go: Removed omitempty from HealthStatusRequest.GPUUsage.
  • All existing tests pass (go test ./pkg/nvca/... ./pkg/types/...).

For QA

  • Ran go test ./pkg/nvca/... ./pkg/types/... — all pass.
  • No new tests added; the fix is a correctness change in existing logic. QA validation on a cluster with mixed instance type naming conventions is recommended.

Fixes #1152

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved GPU usage reporting when statistics are unavailable by returning an empty usage value instead of omitting the information.
    • Ensured health status data consistently includes the GPU usage field, including when no GPU usage is recorded.
    • Improved GPU usage aggregation across supported node types, including configurations without a standard single-GPU instance suffix.
    • Improved capacity calculations for infrastructure configurations with overhead that affects available GPU capacity.

…ge in heartbeat

Single-node instance types were identified by name suffix (_1x) rather than
the NodeType field, which missed instance types with non-standard names.
Switch to checking NodeType == SINGLE and break after the first match per GPU
to avoid double-counting.

Also remove omitempty from GPUUsage so the field is always present in the
heartbeat JSON, even when no GPUs are allocated.

Fixes #1152

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

NVCA now aggregates GPU usage from registration instance types marked as single-node. Health status requests retain gpuUsage in JSON, including when the map is empty. A regression test covers non-suffixed single-node instance types.

Changes

GPU usage heartbeat reporting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Heartbeat GPU usage contract
src/compute-plane-services/nvca/pkg/nvca/backendk8scache.go, src/compute-plane-services/nvca/pkg/types/types.go
GetComponentStatus initializes empty GPU usage data. HealthStatusRequest always serializes the gpuUsage field.
Single-node GPU aggregation and regression coverage
src/compute-plane-services/nvca/pkg/nvca/backendk8scache.go, src/compute-plane-services/nvca/pkg/nvca/backendk8scache_test.go
GPU usage aggregation selects instance types by NodeTypeSingle instead of requiring names that end in _1x. The test verifies capacity for a non-suffixed instance type through a fake node-features client.

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

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 5e8fc

The PR corrects GPU capacity selection and ensures GPU usage is present in heartbeats. It is mergeable with owner awareness that one test should handle constructor errors explicitly so setup failures are not hidden.

…d by infra overhead

Covers the case where per-instance CPU resources fall below the infrastructure
overhead threshold, eliminating the _1x subdivision while keeping _2x and _4x.
The old code (HasSuffix "_1x") returned Capacity=0; the NodeType-based fix
finds the first SINGLE subdivision (_2x) and returns the correct value.
