The current Node Feature Discovery (NFD) Operator documentation does not describe the workerNodeSelector and workerTolerations fields available under spec.operand of the NodeFeatureDiscovery custom resource.

These fields allow cluster administrators to:

Schedule NFD worker pods only on selected nodes by using workerNodeSelector.
Schedule NFD worker pods on tainted nodes by configuring workerTolerations
The masterTolerations field allows NFD master pods to tolerate taints applied to control plane/master nodes.
Beginning with Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.20, the NodeFeatureDiscovery custom resource supports configuring the placement of NFD worker and master pods through the spec.operand section.
