Two fixes from the failed first deploy on irv-ml1:
1. CPU/GPU variant. Kokoro's GPU image needs CUDA >= 12.9; irv-ml1's
driver 570.124.06 caps at 12.8 so the gpu variant fails with
"nvidia-container-cli: requirement error: unsatisfied condition:
cuda>=12.9". Make the variant a knob:
KOKORO_VARIANT=cpu (default — works anywhere)
KOKORO_VARIANT=gpu (after driver bump)
KOKORO_USE_GPU=false|true (matches the variant)
Kokoro is tiny (82M params) so CPU is workable: TTFA ~1s vs ~300ms
on GPU. Acceptable while the driver bump gets scheduled. compose.yaml
no longer hard-codes `runtime: nvidia` — relies on the daemon's
default-runtime + NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES gating, same as how the
wrapper's USE_GPU flag selects the inference path inside the
container. Toggling between variants is now a `.env` edit + restart.
2. Tighter pull-log filter. --quiet on `docker compose pull` only
suppresses the pull command's stdout; the docker daemon still
emits per-layer extraction events on stderr ("ffbfd7a09415
Extracting 64.06MB" repeated dozens of times per layer). Drop those
too via grep on the SHA-prefixed pattern. set -o pipefail keeps a
real pull failure visible.
For existing deployments: removing /opt/docker/compose/kokoro/.env
on the host and rerunning the playbook re-seeds with the new schema.
