Package exec scans and loads networking plugins that are installed under /usr/libexec/kubernetes/kubelet-plugins/net/exec/ The layout convention for a plugin is: plugin-name/ (plugins have to be directories first) plugin-name/plugin-name (executable that will be called out, see Vendoring Note for more nuances) plugin-name/<other-files> where, 'executable' has the following requirements: - should have exec permissions - should give non-zero exit code on failure, and zero on sucess - the arguments will be <action> <pod_namespace> <pod_name> <docker_id_of_infra_container> whereupon, <action> will be one of: - init, called when the kubelet loads the plugin - setup, called after the infra container of a pod is created, but before other containers of the pod are created - teardown, called before the pod infra container is killed As the executables are called, the file-descriptors stdin, stdout, stderr remain open.

InitNetworkPlugin inits the plugin that matches networkPluginName.

Host is an interface that plugins can use to access the kubelet.

Plugin is an interface to network plugins for the kubelet.
