RDMA的作用
- RDMA：是一种绕过操作系统内核的网络通信技术，其核心在于通过网卡直接访问远端内存，避免了传统 TCP/IP 协议栈的数据拷贝和上下文切换开销。
- NVIDIA GPU Direct\^2：实现 GPU 显存与网卡 DMA 引擎的直接对接，当 GPU 需要与远端节点通信时，数据可直接通过 InfiniBand 或 RoCE 网卡传输，无需经过主机内存中转。
- 网络虚拟化 ：Macvlan 和 SR-IOV 是两种常见的网络虚拟化方案。Macvlan 允许为容器创建虚拟网卡接口，使其在物理网络上显示为独立设备；而 SR-IOV 通过物理网卡的硬件虚拟化能力，将单个物理功能（PF）划分为多个虚拟功能（VF），每个 VF 都能直接分配给 Pod 使用。
- 技术路径：目前 RDMA 主要有 InfiniBand 与 RoCE 两种实现方式。InfiniBand 原生支持 RDMA 协议，需要专用交换机和子网管理器构建独立网络，成本高昂；而 RoCEv2 则基于传统以太网基础设施，通过 PFC 和 ECN 等流控机制保障无损传输，被互联网公司广泛使用。
云平台RDMA网络结构
主要完成两个支持：
- 接入ROCEV2， 使高速业务流量(data flow)可以走RDMA网络
- 普通以太网走 控制流量和低速业务流量（controller flow），双网络平面达到高低速网络隔离效果。
构建方法
- 使用multus-cni达到容器双网络支持
- primiary cni 使用主机的物理网卡 lan0, lan1 聚合城的 bind01网卡（高可用），bind01网卡使用calico或cillium接入pod
- secondary cni 使用 rocev2。rocev2 设备对应主机上的lanx--mlx5_x 设备，使用rdma-shared-device-plugin 向kubelet注册设备资源，容器调度到节点时将分配rocev2物理设备，multus-cni将使用 macvlan将分配的rocev2设备以名为netx 的网络设备映射入容器。
配置方法
rdmaSharedDevicePlugin配置：在物理机上lan2、lan3、lan4、lan5分别对应mlx5_0、mlx5_1、mlx5_2、mlx5_3，将四张网卡分别以nvidia.com/mlx5_0、nvidia.com/mlx5_1、nvidia.com/mlx5_2、http://nvidia.com/mlx5_3的资源名称变成k8s的扩展资源，每个扩展资源定义为100份。
