Make Kubernetes Greater for NFV@Arm
summary
Kubernetes on Arm gains hardware-aware scheduling and DPDK-based dataplane acceleration: implemented SR-IOV passthrough with DPDK so containers see VFs and bypass the kernel for lower packet-copy and interrupt latency, and integrated VPP as a high‑performance virtual bridge using DPDK. A Node Feature Discovery agent exposes capabilities via labels (Node Feature Discovery), and CPU Manager (static/none modes) plus a HugePage-aware resource workflow aim to deliver predictable NFV performance; NFD and DPDK/VPP plumbing are complete, CPU/hugepage verification is pending.
