Hi @KunWuLuan. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes-sigs member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes-sigs/prow repository.

It seems that some sections are still empty. So, when you fill all sections, we will review this KEP.

@tenzen-y Hi, I filled in the empty sections. And some implement details will be added after we discuss and choose the road.

Thanks for the updates.
@KunWuLuan Could you resolve CI errors with "make toc-update"?

What do you mean by single existing instance of workload here ?

For a specific stage which may refer to a stageGroup in workflow's status in workflow, we create a kueue.workload to track the resource requests.


#### How to suspend by stages

In my daily work, I primarily encounter workflow managers in the form of Argo and Tekton. Consequently, this section will focus on these two. Other workflow management systems can draw upon the discussions in this section for implementation guidance.

Do we have any significant differences between Argo/Tekton and Airflow when we execute workflows in Kubernetes?

It seems suspend action in Tekton is not supported.

spec:
entrypoint: loop-example-depth-1
templates:
- name: kueue-suspend

Does it mean that you are going to mutate the existing Workflow with kueue-suspend step ?
Why not just mutate the suspend: true parameter to every step ?

Yes

Why not just mutate the suspend: true parameter to every step ?

Change suspend to false will start all suspend steps. Adding suspend template before every leaf template allow us to control the start of specific steps. For example, for the DAG like this:

A
|  \
B  C

I think step B and step C should wait for different workload admissions.

args: ["3m"]
```

Option 3. Kueue Webhook Enhancement: A new webhook is added within Kueue to intercept pod creations in the cluster.

How the Argo Workflow controller will reconcile steps if Pods will be in SchedulingGated status ?

AFAIK, SchedulingGated status is almost same with pending status, so it should not have any effect to Argo Workflow controller. Maybe @terrytangyuan can give us some more information.

Why do we need this workflow dedicated Reconciler?
We want to keep using the ReconcileGenericJob. The CompsableJob is a good example of how to perform the special typed Job in the generic Job reconciler.

Could you propose an approach to extend the ReconcileGenericJob by WorkflowJob interface?

@terrytangyuan Hi, do you have any comments on these options? I think we need the feedback of workflow managers to determine what Kueue can do in its framework.

Thanks for the ping. I'll take a look when I get a chance. Will you be willing to drive and implement the changes needed on Argo Workflows side too?

@terrytangyuan Oh, yes. I am willing to do this.

Sorry folks. With the k/k enhancements freeze, I had little time to read this. I'll try to make some time soon.

In this section, we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of queuing Workflows, Stages, and Tasks individually. Additionally, we will explore how each of these can be implemented within Kueue.

### What are the Stages for Argo Workflows?

It's not clear to me what a stage is.
Is it an Argo concept that I'm missing? If so, can you add a link to its definition in the Argo documentation?
Otherwise, can you please elaborate a bit more?

Stage is not a concept in Argo. I try to use a new word to represent the process that will create a set of pods in workflow. In Argo this may be a TaskGroup, or a StepGroup.
You can see the section 'What are the Stages for Argo Workflows'. If there are still some question the concept of stage, I will try to explain more in the section.
