In `@docs/enhancements/0007-initramfs-oot-modules-design.md`:
- Line 85: The stamp validation described in the initramfs rebuild flow must
account for image content, not only the current kernel and specHash. Update the
stamp design to store and compare the resolved image digest or build generation,
or explicitly enforce immutable tags and verify their digest before skipping
pull/rebuild.
- Around line 331-332: Update the InitramfsModule authorization and admission
design so namespace users cannot freely create or update objects that select
nodes and deliver arbitrary images; restrict access to trusted administrators or
enforce approved namespaces, selectors, and image sources before the controller
labels nodes and loads modules.
- Around line 398-399: Update the InitramfsModule reconciliation design to
enforce a cluster-wide single-CR invariant for shared resources such as
kmm-initramfs and 99-kmm-initramfs, rejecting subsequent CRs and surfacing the
conflict on the CR, or define per-CR resource names with an explicit merge model
that prevents updates and deletion from affecting another CR.
- Line 312: Update the host unit registry-pull design to require TLS certificate
verification for every registry hop, reject HTTP and otherwise insecure
registries, and prevent kubelet pull credentials from being forwarded to
unauthorized redirect targets.
- Around line 284-286: Define how ${KERNEL_FULL_VERSION} is expanded in
softLinks by the pre-udev hook, resolving both path and target against the
running kernel version before creating links; alternatively require callers to
provide already-resolved per-kernel paths, while preserving non-empty path and
target validation.
- Around line 406-409: Resolve the open policy in section 9.1 for a pre-existing
kmm-initramfs MachineConfigPool: explicitly choose adoption or failure, then
document the corresponding mutation rules, conflict reporting, and finalization
behavior, keeping it consistent with the selector handling described in section
8.
- Line 211: Clarify the contract for InitramfsModuleSpec.ImageRepoSecret: either
propagate it through the MachineConfig parameters and specHash so the host image
pull uses it, or document that it is only consumed by MIC/MBSC and not the host
pull. Ensure the chosen behavior is explicit and consistent with the host unit’s
kubelet pull-secret handling.
- Around line 243-248: Update the generated MachineConfigPool and MachineConfig
ownership design to define a controller-owned marker containing the
InitramfsModule UID, and require validation of that marker before patching or
deleting either fixed-name resource. Specify lifecycle behavior for
pre-existing, orphaned, and explicitly adopted resources; on marker mismatch,
report an error and leave the resource unchanged.

Make the stamp track image content.
current kernel + specHash treats the kernel-suffixed image tag as immutable. If the registry repushes that tag, the unit exits before pulling or rebuilding, so updated modules, firmware, or signatures never reach the initramfs. Store the resolved image digest or build generation in the stamp, or enforce immutable tags and verify the digest.

| The host unit runs as root and uses the kubelet pull secret. Signing uses the same key/cert secrets as Module; enrollment in MOK remains the operator's existing Secure Boot process. Privileged status pods use the same worker SCC pattern as NMC. Webhook validates sign paths. No new authentication model. |

I noticed that in §8 you already say: if kmm-initramfs exists with a different selector, the reconciler errors and doesn’t overwrite.
But 9.1 still asks whether to adopt or fail. Did you mean to close 9.1, or is that still open?

| On-node work follows the verified PoC: a MachineConfig-installed systemd unit pulls the kmod image, stages files under `/etc/kmods`, runs `rpm-ostree initramfs --enable` with dracut `--include`, and reboots after apply or spec change. In-cluster image build and Secure Boot signing reuse `ModuleImagesConfig` / `ModuleBuildSignConfig` with `InitramfsModule` as owner. This design assumes a single `InitramfsModule` in the cluster; KMM does not reject a second object. One CR can load several OOT modules from one image and omit several in-tree names. `spec.containerImage` is `<repository>:<partialTag>`; the node script appends `-<kernelVersion>` when pulling. There is no `kernelMappings` field. [User] [Codebase: internal/mic/mic.go] |

Although it is not great to query the k8s api from the webhook, it may be a better option rather than just silently fail. WDYT?

| On `Job.Status.Succeeded == 1`, the reconciler reads `parse`'s `terminated.message`, unmarshals the JSON, and patches **only** `99-kmm-initramfs` with those `inTreeModules` and `softLinks` for that kernel. `initramfs.sh` reads the MachineConfig entry for normalized `uname -r`. The MachineConfig is the durable copy of the lists. There is no result ConfigMap and the reconciler does not persist the raw `modules.dep`. Operators can `oc get job`, `oc get pod -o yaml` (terminated message), and `oc get mc 99-kmm-initramfs`. [User] | ||

| If a Job for the same `inputHash` already succeeded, the reconciler does not create another; it re-reads that Pod's status if the MachineConfig does not yet have the lists. If `moduleNames` or `omit` change, `inputHash` changes and the reconciler creates a new Job. If MIC/MBSC records a new successful build or sign for that image, the reconciler deletes the old Job and creates a new one. The Job has no `ttlSecondsAfterFinished` so the Pod remains until the owner CR (or a replacement Job) deletes it. [User] |

Persist inspect results outside the termination message.
When a successful Job produces an empty, truncated, or invalid terminated.message, the reconciler rejects the payload. Because the Job for that inputHash remains successful, reconciliation keeps reading the same immutable invalid Pod status and does not patch the MachineConfig. An oversized result can therefore leave the workflow permanently blocked.
Store the result in a durable object such as a ConfigMap, or use a bounded result protocol. Deleting and recreating the Job alone does not fix deterministic truncation unless the replacement uses a representation that fits.

Define recovery semantics for failed image pulls.
kmm-initramfs.service restarts initramfs.sh after a failed pull. Systemd defaults already bound this behavior to a 100 ms restart delay and five starts per 10 seconds. After the burst is exhausted, automatic restarts stop. This conflicts with the design’s requirement that the unit poll until the image becomes available. Specify an explicit retry delay and a way to resume polling after the start limit, or implement bounded polling in initramfs.sh.

Replace the staging tree on every rebuild.
The non-rollback flow stages files under /etc/kmods/... and passes that tree to rpm-ostree initramfs --enable --include. The design defines no cleanup, replacement, mount, or generation-specific path. If a later image omits a module or firmware file, the old file can remain staged and be included in the new initramfs.
Clear the target before extraction or use a fresh generation-specific directory.

Keep the status label key within Kubernetes limits.
The label name ends with initramfs.<namespace>.<name>. That name segment has a 63-character limit, but valid namespace and resource names can exceed it together. Long valid CR names will fail the label update.
Use a fixed label key with an encoded or collision-safe value.

Define the durable creation BootID record.
The status pod reads a stamp defined by kernel and specHash, while InitramfsNodeStatus contains no BootID field. However, initramfsApplied requires comparing the current BootID with the BootID recorded at creation. Define where the creation BootID is stored and how the status pod reads it across reboot and rollback.

Do not enable an initramfs without current-kernel inspect data.
The design gates new MachineConfig updates, but it does not define the host script’s behavior when the current uname -r entry is absent. The host flow proceeds to dracut and rpm-ostree initramfs --enable; treating missing inTreeModules and softLinks as empty can produce an incomplete initramfs. Require initramfs.sh to exit before --enable and retry until the inspect result is present.

Record rollback completion before reboot.
The service exits only when the stamp matches the current kernel and specHash. The rollback path runs rpm-ostree initramfs --disable and reboots, but it does not define a stamp update or a rollback-complete state. After rollback changes, the existing stamp remains mismatched, so the next boot can run --disable and reboot again.
After --disable succeeds, write a stamp containing the current kernel and rollback specHash, or an equivalent rollback-complete state, before reboot. Clearing the stamp alone is not sufficient because it would preserve the mismatch.

Align the deselection lifecycle across the design documents.
docs/enhancements/0006-initramfs-oot-modules.md still states at Lines 22, 102, and 134 that a deselected node uses the original in-tree initramfs on its next reboot. This contradicts FR-20 and docs/enhancements/0007-initramfs-oot-modules-design.md, which state that deselection leaves the generated initramfs in place and does not revert it. Update the stale statements and flow to use one lifecycle contract. Otherwise, implementations can disagree about whether a later reboot removes the OOT module.

Include all inspect inputs in inputHash.
dirName and modulesPath control extraction and dependency parsing, which produce inTreeModules and softLinks. The Job identity includes only the kernel, moduleNames, and omit, so a successful Job can be reused after either field changes. The resulting MachineConfig can therefore retain stale dependency data. The documented image build/sign invalidation does not cover these spec-only changes.
Include the effective dirName and modulesPath values in inputHash, or explicitly invalidate and recreate the Job when either changes.

metadata.name allows a valid InitramfsModule name up to 253 characters, but Kubernetes limits Job names to 63 characters. The specified irm-inspect-<initramfsmodule-name>-<inputHash> value has no truncation or generateName fallback, so a sufficiently long valid CR name can make Job creation fail.

Define recovery for a failed inspect Job.
After backoffLimit: 3 is exhausted, the deterministic Job remains terminal. The design says that reconciliation waits, but it does not define deletion and recreation. A transient registry failure can therefore block dependency data until the input changes or an operator intervenes. Define a bounded controller retry that replaces the failed Job.

421, Define bounded recovery for an inspect Job after its backoffLimit is
exhausted: have reconciliation detect the terminal failure, delete and recreate
the Job with a controller retry limit, and preserve the existing no-payload
behavior until a retry succeeds. Specify the retry exhaustion outcome so
persistent failures do not cause an unbounded recreate loop.
