What differs between sites moves out of cluster-wide config into the Talos
site patches (site-homelab.yaml, site-qemu.yaml), and the consumers read it
from there:

- nodeIP.validSubnets lists IPv4 first, as the live nodes run. Talos keeps
  the order (siderolabs/net FilterIPs) and the first entry becomes the
  primary node IP; with fd02:46::/64 first, kube-apiserver exits with
  'service IP family "10.96.0.0/12" must match public address family'.
- etcd.advertisedSubnets (VLAN 46, a fact of the home network) moves
  unchanged from cluster.yaml to site-homelab.yaml; the rendered production
  config is byte-identical.
- Pod routing (routingMode, autoDirectNodeRoutes, directRoutingDevice) and
  the native-routing CIDRs are a cilium-site ConfigMap per site patch, read
  by the Cilium HelmRelease via valuesFrom. bootstrap.sh merges it the same
  way: site values first, HelmRelease values on top. Production renders
  unchanged (helm template, TLS secrets excluded).
- Each site patch states its node resolver list (ResolverConfig: k8s-gateway
  first, then the site's resolver) and k8s-gateway's upstream as a
  k8s-gateway-site ConfigMap, read by the k8s-gateway HelmRelease via
  valuesFrom. bootstrap.sh installs k8s-gateway right after the nodes are
  Ready, from the HelmRelease under the site values, and Flux adopts it:
  until k8s-gateway answers, every lookup waits out the node's 2 s read
  timeout and pods resolve nothing, Flux included.
- bootstrap.sh creates Cilium's cni.confPath subdirectory with a
  hostNetwork pod per node (/etc/cni is read-only to the kubelet on Talos)
  and applies Multus right after Cilium; without it the kubelet reports
  "cni plugin not initialized" and nothing schedules on a cold cluster.
- site-homelab.yaml labels its nodes net.renner.uno/pod-table=47 (table 47
  exists only where the site routes pod traffic into it); k8s-1..3 label
  hardware.renner.uno/intel-gpu and net.renner.uno/iot-vlan, the hardware
  each machine has. The workloads select on these labels in later changes.

Rollout order for production: the cilium-site and k8s-gateway-site
ConfigMaps must exist before the HelmReleases reconcile (valuesFrom is not
optional). Talos creates inline manifests on a config change but never
updates them; changes go through talosctl upgrade-k8s. The node labels go
on with talosctl patch, no reboot.
