A restore onto a machine the checkpoint cannot run on fails deep inside CRIU, where the error names neither the fact that differs nor the machine. Introduce the comparison this will be refused by: the fact vocabulary for both sides, the mismatch it reports, and the policy table Compare reads. The table is empty, so nothing is refused and no caller changes yet. Each rule is registered by its own change on top, which keeps the engine reviewable apart from the twelve policy decisions it will carry. Registration partitions the rules by the gate that evaluates them, so a comparison reads its own gate's rules rather than walking past the other gate's, and a rule pinned to a gate nothing calls is rejected instead of silently never running. Each rule also carries the CamelCase name a Kubernetes condition has to spell it with, since a condition reason cannot hold the hyphens a check name is written with. Facts are optional on both sides by design: a fact missing anywhere is unknown rather than mismatched, so a checkpoint captured before that fact was ever recorded stays restorable.

A refusal is about to be reported in three places at once: the agent log, a pod event and a pod condition. Formatting it at each of them would let the three drift, and an operator who greps one and then another would not connect them. Render it once here instead, naming the rule and both compared values. A side with no recorded fact prints as unknown rather than as an empty gap, which is a real case: a checkpoint captured before a fact existed is refused with that fact absent on the source side. The word for an absent value lands in api/util rather than here, so whatever renders one next says unknown too instead of inventing "unset" or "n/a" beside it. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
Place the pre-flight gate in startRestoreForContainer, at the first point where the checkpoint's own record of what it was captured on is readable and the attempt has not been claimed yet, so a refusal leaves no in-flight entry and no worker goroutine behind. The design named reconcileRestorePod and maybeStartRestoreForContainer, but neither has resolved the artifact yet, so neither can read the manifest without resolving it a second time. An unreadable manifest is allowed through rather than refused: the restore path reads it again and reports the real error, so refusing here would relabel a broken artifact as an incompatible one - and it is what keeps every existing restore test, none of which writes a manifest, describing the same behaviour as before. The manifest-to-facts mapping lives with the manifest so the second gate reads the recorded facts through the same function, and cannot come to a different conclusion about what the checkpoint said. The signature takes the pod and the container from here, ahead of any rule reading them, so it does not change again when the first rule that compares a pod fact arrives. The table is still empty, so nothing is refused. What a refusal reports is added next. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
The second gate runs in inspectRestore, the first point where the GPUs this container sees and the mounts under its rootfs are readable. It sits ahead of BuildDeviceMap on purpose: that function pairs source and target GPUs by position, so a GPU difference reaching it becomes a device-map error that names neither GPU. Making room for it splits GPU discovery from the device map it fed. The reported gpu_device_map phase stays the sum of exactly those two spans, so the gate does not quietly inflate a timing an operator reads. The gate goes behind inspectMismatches, the counterpart of the controller's preflightMismatches, so both gates read alike and each has one place that gathers its target facts. A refusal returns its own error type. The worker recognises it and stops without reporting a restore failure, without killing the placeholder - which would only restart the container into the same refusal - and while still holding the attempt, so the same container is not retried. Both gates are tested through a shared harness, which lands here because every later change to how a refusal is reported needs the same setup: a restore pod, an artifact with a manifest, a comparison that turns it down, and a way to read back what the agent said. Writing the two gate tests on it is what proves it works, rather than a claim that it does. The logger is a recorder so those later changes can assert on the field an operator greps for instead of on a formatted sentence, and WithValues accumulates, because the gates log through a logger that already carries the pod and container. Accessors arrive with the assertions that need them: the unused linter runs over tests, so a helper cannot be committed ahead of its first caller. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
First of the ways a refusal is reported: one line, at both gates, with the reason in its own field rather than folded into the message, so it can be matched on without parsing a sentence. Both gates report through one function. A refusal reads the same whichever gate turned it down, and the surfaces added on top of this land in one place instead of two. The pre-flight logger gains the checkpoint ID, so the three keys a reader needs to place a refusal - pod, container, checkpoint - are all on the record. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
A gate that cannot be turned off is a gate that turns into an incident when it is wrong. This is the per-restore escape hatch: an annotation on the restore pod, either stamped on the pod template up front or added later to a pod the gate already turned down. It is read before the incompatible short-circuit on purpose. Read after, it would never reach a pod that had already been refused, and the only way out of a wrong refusal would be deleting annotations by hand. Both gates honour it from the start. The second one runs inside the executor, several steps past the point where the annotation can still be read, so the answer travels with the request rather than being asked twice: one restore is either checked or it is not, and there is no version of this where the two gates disagree. Anything that is not a recognized boolean true keeps the gates on. Turning them off by accident is the expensive direction: a restore that should have been refused instead fails somewhere inside CRIU. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
Annotating pods one at a time is not a way out of a bad rollout. A cluster admin gets one boolean in the agent ConfigMap that covers every restore the node handles, beside the restore timeout that is already there, and the chart exposes it as config.restore.skipCompatCheck. One boolean and not a per-check list: a list needs a stable public name for every check, and it ships in the chart, so it would be a one-way door before the checks themselves have settled. Both sources are logged when a check is skipped, not just the winning one, so an operator can tell a one-off annotation from a node that has the gate off for everything. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
A switch that needs a DaemonSet rollout to be heard is not much of a switch: rolling the agent during an incident is exactly what an admin turning the gate off is trying to avoid. So the value comes from the mounted ConfigMap on the restore path instead of the copy read at startup. Kubernetes already projects ConfigMap updates into that mount, so this needs no watch, no ticker, no API call and no new RBAC - only a re-read, injected as a closure so the controller never learns where the config file lives. A read that fails keeps the last value it did get. Failing a restore, or quietly checking it differently, because a config read went wrong would be worse than being one kubelet sync behind. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
nvidia-smi is the only look either side gets at the GPUs a container can see, and it is already being run. Asking it for the model and the driver version in the same call costs nothing, and what is not read here cannot be compared later: a UUID says which GPU it was, not what it was. Three paths find a container's GPUs and only one of them had anything to say about them: the kubelet path returns before nvidia-smi is ever run, and the DRA path reduced nvidia-smi's answer to an ordering and threw the rest away. Facts recorded on some clusters and not others are facts no check can rely on. All three now come out the same shape, in the order the GPUs were allocated. The kubelet path calls nvidia-smi purely to describe GPUs it already has, so a failure there costs the model and driver version and not the checkpoint - the same reason a UUID nvidia-smi did not report keeps its place undescribed instead of dropping out of the set, and a row without a model still counts as a GPU. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
A hung nsenter would wedge the worker for the life of the process, since the agent's own context carries no deadline. Every path that shells out to nvidia-smi has to bound it, whether it needs the UUIDs themselves or only the models. Thirty seconds is far longer than the call takes and far shorter than a restore is willing to wait. Giving up early costs the model and the driver version on the path that only adds detail, and the capture on the two that need those UUIDs to build a device map. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
The manifest is the only thing that crosses from capture to restore, so a GPU model that is not written here is a GPU model no restore can check. It gains the per-device model and the driver version, and the capture path carries them from discovery instead of narrowing to UUIDs on the way. The UUID list stays exactly where it was. The device map is built from it, and every artifact captured so far has only that - which is why a manifest with no described GPUs still reports its GPU count to the comparison, from the UUIDs alone. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
The kernel a node runs cannot change while the pod is up, so this is read once through the host proc mount - not the agent's own namespace, which would describe the DaemonSet pod instead of the machine. A read that fails is unknown, not fatal. The node keeps capturing and restoring; only the checks that need this fact stop applying. What it must not do is record an empty string, which would be indistinguishable from a checkpoint taken before the field existed. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
These are the facts that decide whether a checkpoint can be moved at all: CRIU restores process state built against a specific kernel and instruction set. Neither is recoverable after the fact, so it is written at capture or it is lost. Every field is omitted when unknown, which keeps "the agent could not read this" distinct from "the value is empty" - a distinction the checks depend on to stay silent rather than refuse on a fact nobody recorded. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
A restore into a different image is a different program wearing the same process tree, and a restore under a smaller limit is killed the moment the restored heap is faulted back in. Both are decidable in advance, but only against what the source pod actually ran with. The image ID is stored exactly as the runtime reported it - runtimes disagree on the prefix - and the limits as their original quantity strings, leaving both to be interpreted where they are compared. The pod block also gets the case that matters most: a manifest from before any of these facts existed still parses, and reports them as unknown rather than as empty values a check could refuse. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
…olds The capture path has no API client for the pod, and the reconciler that starts a capture is holding the informer copy, so the reading happens there and travels down as part of the request. The same reader will serve the restore side, where these facts describe the target instead of the source - which is why it distinguishes an unlimited container from one limited to zero, and a status the kubelet has not published yet from an empty image ID. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
The first rule in the table, and the one that can never be waived: a checkpoint holds register state, and there is nowhere to put an x86 register file on an ARM core. No amount of memory or a newer driver changes that answer. It is decidable from the manifest and the node alone, so it runs at the first gate, before the restore attempt is claimed. Comparing an architecture nobody recorded refuses nothing, which is what keeps checkpoints taken before this field existed restorable. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
Two rules from one fact. Equality, because a kernel upgrade alone has broken restores that had worked for over a year (criu#2636), so the captured release is required rather than a compatible-looking one. And a 5.13 floor, because glibc uses rseq (criu#2229) and glibc 2.35 segfaults on restore below it (criu#2552) - a node below the floor cannot restore a modern userspace at all, whichever kernel the checkpoint came from. They are separate rules so a refusal says which one it is: an operator who needs the matching kernel back is in a different position from one whose whole node is too old. A release string the floor cannot parse is unknown rather than old, leaving equality to speak alone. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
A checkpoint is a process tree of the binaries and libraries one image provided, so restoring it over different content hands those mapped pages a different program to belong to. The content is compared and the reference is not. The same content is reachable under more than one reference, so comparing references would refuse a restore that is a mirror host or a digest-pinned spec away from the captured one; the same reference over two contents is a rebuilt or moved tag, which nothing in the pod spec reveals. The digests are only comparable after normalization - runtimes wrap the image ID differently, and the artifact keeps whichever form it was given, so the same content would otherwise read as a mismatch. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
Restoring is not a gradual warm-up: the recorded address space is faulted back in, so a smaller ceiling does not slow the restore down, it gets the process OOM-killed partway through one. The rule is blunt on purpose. A deployment that was over-provisioned and is being trimmed deliberately is refused as well, and the escape hatch is the answer to that rather than a cleverer comparison nobody can predict. A pod with no limit records none, so an unlimited pod on either side is simply nothing to compare. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
The same comparison as memory, but the failure mode is the opposite kind: too little memory kills the restore, too little CPU lets it succeed. The workload comes back, reports itself restored, and serves measurably slower from then on with nothing anywhere saying why. That silence is the argument for gating rather than warning. If the decision goes the other way it is one line in the policy table. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
CRIU was told at capture to leave these mounts alone and expect them where they were. A pod that declares fewer volumes than the one the checkpoint came from restores into a rootfs where a dataset or a working directory simply is not there, and the process finds out later, by failing at whatever it was going to read next. Only the recorded destinations are looked up, so the gate costs one stat per volume the checkpoint actually used, and every missing one is named: a user fixing their pod spec needs the whole list, not the first entry. The root and /dev/shm are excluded because CRIU reconstructs them itself, and a path that could not be stat'ed at all counts as present, since that is this agent failing to look rather than the pod missing a volume. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
A CUDA checkpoint carries device state built for one architecture's memory layout and capabilities. Driver compatibility does not help: an A100 cannot replay what an L4 was doing. The models are compared as a counted set rather than positionally, since which GPU is allocated at which index is the device map's concern and not this rule's. The comparison runs ahead of that map, whose positional pairing would otherwise turn a GPU difference into an error naming neither GPU. Both sides are read from nvidia-smi, so the strings cannot diverge the way a node label and a device query do, and they are counted on the name the blank guard already trimmed: surrounding space is insignificant to whether a model was recorded, so it cannot be what refuses a restore and prints two names that read identically. GPUs that were found but could not be named are unknown rather than different. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
A multi-GPU checkpoint holds one piece of device state per GPU, each with a rank. A rank with nowhere to land has no meaning, and neither does a spare GPU no rank was recorded for, so more GPUs is as wrong as fewer. It is a rule of its own rather than a corollary of the model set, because it is the one GPU fact every checkpoint already carries: an artifact written before the models were recorded still knows how many GPUs it used, and stays checked on that. A target with no GPUs is that same refusal, and the restore path already turned it down with a bare "missing target GPU UUIDs" naming no count. That error moves behind the gate, which now names it, and stays as what is left when the gate is switched off. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
Equality at build granularity, because upstream reproduces a restore failure between 560.35.03 and 560.35.05 - two builds of one release, so comparing the release alone would let that through. And a 580 floor, because CUDA checkpoint and restore is not supported below it at all, whichever driver the checkpoint came from. Separate rules for the same reason as the kernel pair: an operator who needs the matching driver back is in a different position from one whose node cannot do this at all. A version string neither can parse is unknown rather than old. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
A restore rejected by either compatibility gate never attempts CRIU, but operators still need the outcome without reading agent logs. Report both gates through one terminal path. It records snapshot/Restored=False with reason RestoreIncompatible and emits one warning event carrying the same mismatch details. The condition is durable; the event keeps the refusal visible in the pod timeline. The status patch uses the pods/status subresource, so keep that access pinned by the chart role test. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
A refusal is a fact about this node and this checkpoint, not about one container incarnation. Re-reading the manifest and re-comparing on every resync would change nothing, and re-reporting would append another event to a pod that already explains itself. So the refusal condition short-circuits before the gate, ignoring the recorded container ID. That is the deliberate difference from completed and failed, which retry when the container comes back under a new ID: a restart cannot make an arm64 node run an amd64 checkpoint. The condition is where the refusal is recorded, so it is also what breaks the loop; nothing else on the pod says the restore was turned down. The skip annotation is read before the short-circuit, so it still reaches a pod the gates already turned down - otherwise the only way out of a wrong refusal would be editing pod status by hand. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
Every fact the gates decide on is read at capture and cannot be recovered afterwards, so a unit test proving the plumbing carries a value is not enough: the value has to be this node's and this pod's. The nightly capture now compares the recorded kernel and architecture against the node object, the image and its ID against the pod that was captured, and the GPU models and driver against nvidia-smi inside that pod - the same query the agent runs, so a difference is a real difference and not two spellings of one. The GPUs are read before the capture, while the source container is still running, and compared as a set: allocation order is the device map's concern rather than this test's.

Proves the refusal end to end on real hardware: the pod carries SnapshotRestoreCompatible=False, its reason names the rule that failed and its message both quantities, and the workload never sees restore-complete, which is what says no CRIU work was attempted rather than attempted and undone. A memory limit is the cheapest real mismatch to build - nothing about the node has to change - so the pod builders take an optional limit and the capture declares more than the target offers. Counting the event past two informer resyncs is the retry-loop assertion, and it sums event counts rather than objects because repeated events are aggregated into one object. The debug dump grows the pod conditions, since that is now where a failing run has to be read from. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
The refusal is only safe to ship if it can be turned off, so both switches are exercised against the mismatch that provokes it: the annotated restore reaches in_progress with no refusal event and no refusal condition, and so does an unannotated one once the agent ConfigMap says skipCompatCheck. The node scenario is the one worth the runtime. It edits the ConfigMap the DaemonSet actually mounts, waits for the file inside the container rather than guessing at the kubelet's refresh, and then asserts the agent that honoured the flip is the same process as before - which is the whole reason the switch is a ConfigMap and not an env var. Both use a limit small enough to be refused and large enough to restore into, and the switch is put back on the way out so the next test still meets the gate it means to exercise.

Prevent malformed nvidia-smi output from reaching device-map construction with an empty target UUID. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>
Use CRI image_id at checkpoint and inspect time so equivalent OCI indexes do not false-refuse restores. Artifacts predating this fact remain restorable, while lookup failures for recorded identities stop the operation. Signed-off-by: liran elisha <lirane@nvidia.com>

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Do not require runtime image inspection before a skipped compatibility gate.
When manifest.K8s.ImageID is set, Lines 258-262 resolve the image ID before inspectCompatibility can honor req.SkipCompatCheck. A runtime lookup error then aborts a restore that the pod or node explicitly configured to skip.
This also rejects the existing req.ContainerID == "" path, although Lines 247-251 resolve that placeholder by pod and destination container. Skip this lookup when req.SkipCompatCheck is true. Otherwise, resolve the container ID through ResolveContainerIDByPod before comparing it.
Add coverage for skipped restores with an unavailable runtime image ID and restores that use the pod/container lookup path.

How to read this
The 29 commits form a ladder; each commit introduces one idea with its own tests.
reasonfieldBehavior
Gate A runs before the restore is claimed. Gate B runs after a destination placeholder is resolved but before its device map or CRIU work. A single-destination refusal reports:
For a multi-destination restore, all incompatible destinations are aggregated under
RestoreIncompatible; mixed worker outcomes use the existing partial/failure result handling. Checkpoints missing either side of a fact remain restorable.The bypasses are off by default:
