Patrick Ohly 10de6780cf DRA API: remove obsolete types from v1alpha3
The v1alpha3 version is still needed for DeviceTaintRule, but the rest of the
types and most structs became obsolete in v1.32 when we introduced v1beta1 and
bumped the storage version to v1beta1.

Removing them now simplifies adding new features because new fields don't need
to be added to these obsolete types. This could have been done already in 1.33,
but wasn't to minimize disrupting on-going work.

Existing API Rule Violations

This folder contains the checked-in report file of known API rule violations. The file violation_exceptions.list is used by Make rule during OpenAPI spec generation to make sure that no new API rule violation is introduced into our code base.

API Rule Violation Format

The report file violation_exceptions.list is in format of:

  • API rule violation: <RULE>,<PACKAGE>,<TYPE>,<FIELD>

e.g.

  • API rule violation: names_match,k8s.io/api/core/v1,Event,ReportingController

And the violation list is sorted alphabetically in each of the <RULE>, <PACKAGE>, <TYPE>, <FIELD> levels.

How to resolve API Rule Check Failure

Make rule returns an error when the newly generated violation report differs from this checked-in violation report.

Our goal is that exceptions should never be added to this list, only fixed and removed. For new APIs, this is a hard requirement. For APIs that are e.g. being moved between versions or groups without other changes, it is OK for your API reviewer to make an exception.

If you're removing violations from the exception list, or if you have good reasons to add new violations to this list, please update the file using:

  • UPDATE_API_KNOWN_VIOLATIONS=true ./hack/update-codegen.sh

It is up to API reviewers to review the list and make sure new APIs follow our API conventions.

NOTE: please don't hide changes to this file in a "generated changes" commit, treat it as source code instead.
