Highlights

• Immediate node re-labeling after a node rebuild (#​2545): nfd-master detects a recreated Node via the surviving NodeFeature's owner-reference / pod-UID annotation and re-labels immediately instead of waiting for the periodic reconcile.
• Configurable NodeFeature owner references: -owner-refs / core.ownerRefs (pod, ds, node; default pod,ds) (#​2545).
• core.noPublishFeatures to slim published NodeFeature objects (#​2530; whitespace-trim fix #​2535).
• New x86-64 microarchitecture level labels cpu-cpuid.X86_64_V1..V4 (#​2490).
• nfd-topology-updater: per-pod lookups served from a node-scoped Pod informer, eliminating high-volume per-pod GETs at scale (#​2509). Requires an RBAC update — see Action Required.
• nfd-master reconciles only on NodeFeature/NodeFeatureRule/NodeFeatureGroup spec changes (#​2532); MatchInRegexp pattern compilation cached (#​2531).

Action Required / Behavior Changes

1. nfd-topology-updater RBAC (#​2509): the ClusterRole needs list+watch on pods (was get only). Helm and kustomize manifests ship the update, but deployments that bump only the image will crash-loop with pods is forbidden ... cannot list resource "pods" until the new RBAC is applied.
2. NodeFeatureRule templates (#​2507): env, expandenv and getHostByName were removed from the available template functions (security hardening). Templates using them now fail to parse (function "env" not defined); the rule is skipped and an error is logged.
3. Helm worker updateStrategy default (#​2519): now rollingUpdate: {maxUnavailable: "10%"} (was Kubernetes default 1). Note for type: OnDelete users: the chart's default rollingUpdate block is deep-merged into your values; the API server accepts and ignores it (verified on v1.30). Optionally set worker.updateStrategy.rollingUpdate: null for a clean spec.
4. resyncPeriod (nfd-master): drives both the informer resync and the (new in this release, #​2415) periodic full reconcile that re-applies labels and cleans up drift. Setting it to 0 disables this safety net entirely.
5. Node-rebuild re-labeling dependency (#​2545): immediate re-label requires pod in -owner-refs (default) or the POD_UID env set on the worker; with ds-only/empty owner refs and no POD_UID, re-labeling falls back to the periodic reconcile interval. -owner-refs=node is unaffected.

Fixes

• nfd-master: don't remove node labels when the NodeFeature cache is incomplete; add periodic reconciliation to clean up genuinely absent NodeFeatures (#​2415).
• nfd-master: prevent stop() panic and informer leak on init failure (#​2534).
• nfd-worker: trim whitespace in comma-separated command-line list values (#​2535).
• Helm: render post-delete prune job resources at container level so they actually apply (#​2515).

Other

• Container images cross-compile from $BUILDPLATFORM via tonistiigi/xx (#​2512).
• Reduced cognitive complexity refactors in nfd-master controller and nfd-worker config (#​2536); nfd-master command-line unit tests (#​2469); codecov upload non-fatal in CI verify (#​2527); template/custom-api input-validation hardening (#​2507).
