Explain why tolerations: [{operator: Exists}] is safe on the driver
compat DaemonSet: the nodeSelector already confines scheduling to GPU
nodes, so the blanket toleration only kicks in when those nodes carry
the dedicated=gpu / nvidia.com/gpu taints that the GPU Operator's
default policy and many deployments apply.

gpu-fleet.json references DCGM_FI_DEV_POWER_MGMT_LIMIT for its
"TDP vs draw" panel, but the custom DCGM Exporter CSV did not declare
it, so the panel silently rendered "No data" on clusters using that
config. Declare the counter, fix the dashboards table in the
gpu-operator examples README, and add a bats test that cross-checks
every DCGM_FI_* reference in tracked dashboards and recording rules
against the union of the upstream default set (snapshotted under
hack/) and the project's custom CSV.

- gpu-fleet: cluster-wide admin view — inventory, capacity (total /
allocated / free), per-node utilization and power, throttling,
temperatures, XID errors.
- gpu-tenants: per-namespace view — live allocation, utilization,
tensor saturation, power, and 24h GPU-hours / kWh integrations for
billing inputs.
Register both under gpu/* in dashboards-infra.list so they ship as
GrafanaDashboard CRs and fall under the bats cross-check introduced
earlier on this branch.
Update examples/README to spell out which DCGM counters each of the
five gpu/* dashboards actually needs on top of the upstream default
CSV — gpu-performance needs profiling and throttling counters,
gpu-efficiency needs profiling, gpu-tenants needs only
DCGM_FI_PROF_PIPE_TENSOR_ACTIVE for its tensor panel, and gpu-fleet
and gpu-quotas work on the default counter set alone.

The previous wording implied that the entire custom DCGM CSV was
required by the recording rules. In fact only the profiling counters
(DCGM_FI_PROF_*) need to be added on top of the upstream defaults —
everything else the rules consume is already in default-counters.csv.
Add a Verification status block flagging that the minimum-set claim is
derived from the DCGM Exporter version pinned in the currently shipped
gpu-operator package and must be re-checked when that package moves to
a newer release.

Restrict the nvidia-driver-compat DaemonSet to nodes labelled
nvidia.com/gpu.present=true (NFD/GPU Operator label). Without the
nodeSelector it was scheduling onto every node — control-plane and
CPU-only workers included — burning a privileged pod slot per host
for no benefit.
Add resource requests and limits to the init and pause containers so
the DaemonSet stays within control-plane budget on small clusters.

Add reference manifests (not templates) under
packages/system/gpu-operator/examples/ documenting one working
configuration for running CUDA workloads directly in pods on a Talos
cluster, with DCGM metrics that drive the gpu/gpu-performance
dashboard.
- values-native-talos.yaml: Cozystack Package values that disable the
sandbox path, enable the device plugin, and wire DCGM to the custom
metrics ConfigMap.
- dcgm-custom-metrics.yaml: ConfigMap extending the default DCGM CSV
with profiling, ECC, throttling and energy counters used by the
dashboard and recording rules.
- nvidia-driver-compat.yaml: DaemonSet that stages libnvidia-ml.so.1
and nvidia-smi from the Talos glibc tree into a location the
gpu-operator validator inspects. Workaround for
NVIDIA/gpu-operator#1687.
- README.md: explains why these are shipped as references rather than
first-class templates (sandbox vs native is a deployment choice),
and how the pieces connect.
The out-of-the-box values-talos.yaml still targets the sandbox (VFIO
passthrough) scenario. Operators who want native pod GPU workloads can
start from these references.
