> Enabling NVIDIA GPU support on Talos is bound by [NVIDIA EULA](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/nvidia-license/)
> Talos GPU support is an **alpha** feature.
These are the steps to enabling NVIDIA support in Talos.
- Talos pre-installed on a node with NVIDIA GPU installed.
- Building a custom Talos installer image with NVIDIA modules
- Building NVIDIA container toolkit system extension which allows to register a custom runtime with containerd
- Upgrading Talos with the custom installer and enabling NVIDIA modules and the system extension
Both these components require that the user build and maintain their own Talos installer image and the NVIDIA container toolkit [Talos System Extension](../system-extensions).
## Prerequisites
This guide assumes the user has access to a container registry with `push` permissions, docker installed on the build machine and the Talos host has `pull` access to the container registry.
Set the local registry and username environment variables:
```bash
export USERNAME=<username>
export REGISTRY=<registry>
```
For eg:
```bash
export USERNAME=talos-user
export REGISTRY=ghcr.io
```
> The examples below will use the sample variables set above.
Modify accordingly for your environment.
## Building the installer image
Start by cloning the [pkgs](https://github.com/siderolabs/pkgs) repository.
Now run the following command to build and push custom Talos kernel image and the NVIDIA image with the NVIDIA kernel modules signed by the kernel built along with it.
```bash
make kernel nonfree-kmod-nvidia PLATFORM=linux/amd64 PUSH=true
```
> Replace the platform with `linux/arm64` if building for ARM64
Now we need to create a custom Talos installer image.
Start by creating a `Dockerfile` with the following content:
```Dockerfile
FROM scratch as customization
COPY --from=ghcr.io/talos-user/nonfree-kmod-nvidia:{{< release >}}-nvidia /lib/modules /lib/modules
FROM ghcr.io/siderolabs/installer:{{< release >}}
COPY --from=ghcr.io/talos-user/kernel:{{< release >}}-nvidia /boot/vmlinuz /usr/install/${TARGETARCH}/vmlinuz
```
Now build the image and push it to the registry.
```bash
DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0 docker build --squash --build-arg RM="/lib/modules" -t ghcr.io/talos-user/installer:{{< release >}}-nvidia .
docker push ghcr.io/talos-user/installer:{{< release >}}-nvidia
```
> Note: buildkit has a bug [#816](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/issues/816), to disable it use DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0
## Building the system extension
Start by cloning the [extensions](https://github.com/siderolabs/extensions) repository.
Now run the following command to build and push the system extension.
```bash
make nvidia-container-toolkit PLATFORM=linux/amd64 PUSH=true TAG=510.60.02-v1.9.0
```
> Replace the platform with `linux/arm64` if building for ARM64
## Upgrading Talos and enabling the NVIDIA modules and the system extension
> Make sure to use `talosctl` version {{< release >}} or later
First create a patch yaml `gpu-worker-patch.yaml` to update the machine config similar to below:
```yaml
- op: add
path: /machine/install/extensions
value:
- image: ghcr.io/talos-user/nvidia-container-toolkit:510.60.02-v1.9.0
- op: add
path: /machine/kernel
value:
modules:
- name: nvidia
- name: nvidia_uvm
- name: nvidia_drm
- name: nvidia_modeset
- op: add
path: /machine/sysctls
value:
net.core.bpf_jit_harden: 1
```
Now apply the patch to all Talos nodes in the cluster having NVIDIA GPU's installed:
```bash
talosctl patch mc --patch @gpu-worker-patch.yaml
```
Now we can proceed to upgrading Talos with the installer built previously:
```bash
talosctl upgrade --image=ghcr.io/talos-user/installer:{{< release >}}-nvidia
```
Once the node reboots, the NVIDIA modules should be loaded and the system extension should be installed.
This can be confirmed by running:
```bash
talosctl read /proc/modules
nvidia_uvm 1146880 - - Live 0xffffffffc2733000 (PO)
nvidia_drm 69632 - - Live 0xffffffffc2721000 (PO)
nvidia_modeset 1142784 - - Live 0xffffffffc25ea000 (PO)
nvidia 39047168 - - Live 0xffffffffc00ac000 (PO)
```
```bash
talosctl get extensions
NODE NAMESPACE TYPE ID VERSION NAME VERSION
172.31.41.27 runtime ExtensionStatus 000.ghcr.io-frezbo-nvidia-container-toolkit-510.60.02-v1.9.0 1 nvidia-container-toolkit 510.60.02-v1.9.0
```
```bash
talosctl read /proc/driver/nvidia/version
NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 510.60.02 Wed Mar 16 11:24:05 UTC 2022
GCC version: gcc version 11.2.0 (GCC)
```
## Deploying NVIDIA device plugin
First we need to create the `RuntimeClass`
Apply the following manifest to create a runtime class that uses the extension:
```yaml
---
apiVersion: node.k8s.io/v1
kind: RuntimeClass
metadata:
name: nvidia
handler: nvidia
```
Install the NVIDIA device plugin:
```bash
helm repo add nvdp https://nvidia.github.io/k8s-device-plugin
helm repo update
helm install nvidia-device-plugin nvdp/nvidia-device-plugin --version=0.11.0 --set=runtimeClassName=nvidia
```
Apply the following manifest to run CUDA pod via nvidia runtime:
```yaml
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: gpu-operator-test
spec:
restartPolicy: OnFailure
runtimeClassName: nvidia
containers:
- name: cuda-vector-add
image: "nvidia/samples:vectoradd-cuda11.6.0"
resources:
limits:
nvidia.com/gpu: 1
```
The status can be viewed by running:
```bash
kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
gpu-operator-test 0/1 Completed 0 13s
```
```bash
kubectl logs gpu-operator-test
[Vector addition of 50000 elements]
Copy input data from the host memory to the CUDA device

```
