Major differences from existing overlay filesystems:
- Linux allows lower layers in an overlay to require revalidation, but not the
upper layer. VFS1 allows the upper layer in an overlay to require
revalidation, but not the lower layer. VFS2 does not allow any layers to
require revalidation. (Now that vfs.MkdirOptions.ForSyntheticMountpoint
exists, no uses of overlay in VFS1 are believed to require upper layer
revalidation; in particular, the requirement that the upper layer support the
creation of "trusted." extended attributes for whiteouts effectively required
the upper filesystem to be tmpfs in most cases.)
- Like VFS1, but unlike Linux, VFS2 overlay does not attempt to make mutations
of the upper layer atomic using a working directory and features like
RENAME_WHITEOUT. (This may change in the future, since not having a working
directory makes error recovery for some operations, e.g. rmdir, particularly
painful.)
- Like Linux, but unlike VFS1, VFS2 represents whiteouts using character
devices with rdev == 0; the equivalent of the whiteout attribute on
directories is xattr trusted.overlay.opaque = "y"; and there is no equivalent
to the whiteout attribute on non-directories since non-directories are never
merged with lower layers.
- Device and inode numbers work as follows:
- In Linux, modulo the xino feature and a special case for when all layers
are the same filesystem:
- Directories use the overlay filesystem's device number and an
ephemeral inode number assigned by the overlay.
- Non-directories that have been copied up use the device and inode
number assigned by the upper filesystem.
- Non-directories that have not been copied up use a per-(overlay,
layer)-pair device number and the inode number assigned by the lower
filesystem.
- In VFS1, device and inode numbers always come from the lower layer unless
"whited out"; this has the adverse effect of requiring interaction with
the lower filesystem even for non-directory files that exist on the upper
layer.
- In VFS2, device and inode numbers are assigned as in Linux, except that
xino and the samefs special case are not supported.
- Like Linux, but unlike VFS1, VFS2 does not attempt to maintain memory mapping
coherence across copy-up. (This may have to change in the future, as users
may be dependent on this property.)
- Like Linux, but unlike VFS1, VFS2 uses the overlayfs mounter's credentials
when interacting with the overlay's layers, rather than the caller's.
- Like Linux, but unlike VFS1, VFS2 permits multiple lower layers in an
overlay.
- Like Linux, but unlike VFS1, VFS2's overlay filesystem is
application-mountable.
Updates #1199
PiperOrigin-RevId: 316019067
We can register any number of tables with any number of architectures, and
need not limit the definitions to the architecture in question. This allows
runsc to generate documentation for all architectures simultaneously.
Similarly, this simplifies the VFSv2 patching process.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 310224827
This change includes:
- Modifications to loader_test.go to get TestCreateMountNamespace to
pass with VFS2.
- Changes necessary to get TestHelloWorld in image tests to pass with
VFS2. This means runsc can run the hello-world container with docker
on VSF2.
Note: Containers that use sockets will not run with these changes.
See "//test/image/...". Any tests here with sockets currently fail
(which is all of them but HelloWorld).
PiperOrigin-RevId: 308363072
This change adds a layer of abstraction around the internal Docker APIs,
and eliminates all direct dependencies on Dockerfiles in the infrastructure.
A subsequent change will automated the generation of local images (with
efficient caching). Note that this change drops the use of bazel container
rules, as that experiment does not seem to be viable.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 308095430
Included:
- loader_test.go RunTest and TestStartSignal VFS2
- container_test.go TestAppExitStatus on VFS2
- experimental flag added to runsc to turn on VFS2
Note: shared mounts are not yet supported.

TCP/IP will work with netstack networking. hostinet doesn't work, and sockets
will have the same behavior as it is now.
Before the userspace is able to create device, the default loopback device can
be used to test.
/proc/net and /sys/net will still be connected to the root network stack; this
is the same behavior now.
Issue #1833
PiperOrigin-RevId: 296309389
FD table now holds both VFS1 and VFS2 types and uses the correct
one based on what's set.
Parts of this CL are just initial changes (e.g. sys_read.go,
runsc/main.go) to serve as a template for the remaining changes.
Updates #1487
Updates #1623
PiperOrigin-RevId: 292023223
Because the abi will depend on the core types for marshalling (usermem,
context, safemem, safecopy), these need to be flattened from the sentry
directory. These packages contain no sentry-specific details.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 291811289
* Rename syncutil to sync.
* Add aliases to sync types.
* Replace existing usage of standard library sync package.
This will make it easier to swap out synchronization primitives. For example,
this will allow us to use primitives from github.com/sasha-s/go-deadlock to
check for lock ordering violations.
Updates #1472

This patch also include a minor change to replace syscall.Dup2
with syscall.Dup3 which was missed in a previous commit(ref a25a976).

NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT sockets send udev-style messages for device events.
gVisor doesn't have any device events, so our sockets don't need to do anything
once created.
systemd's device manager needs to be able to create one of these sockets. It
also wants to install a BPF filter on the socket. Since we'll never send any
messages, the filter would never be invoked, thus we just fake it out.

Each gofer now has a goroutine that polls on the FDs used
to communicate with the sandbox. The respective gofer is
destroyed if any of the FDs is closed.
Closes#601
PiperOrigin-RevId: 261383725
This renames FDMap to FDTable and drops the kernel.FD type, which had an entire
package to itself and didn't serve much use (it was freely cast between types,
and served as more of an annoyance than providing any protection.)
Based on BenchmarkFDLookupAndDecRef-12, we can expect 5-10 ns per lookup
operation, and 10-15 ns per concurrent lookup operation of savings.
This also fixes two tangential usage issues with the FDMap. Namely, non-atomic
use of NewFDFrom and associated calls to Remove (that are both racy and fail to
drop the reference on the underlying file.)
PiperOrigin-RevId: 256285890
runsc will now set the HOME environment variable as required by POSIX. The
user's home directory is retrieved from the /etc/passwd file located on the
container's file system during boot.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 253120627
Parse annotations containing 'gvisor.dev/spec/mount' that gives
hints about how mounts are shared between containers inside a
pod. This information can be used to better inform how to mount
these volumes inside gVisor. For example, a volume that is shared
between containers inside a pod can be bind mounted inside the
sandbox, instead of being two independent mounts.
For now, this information is used to allow the same tmpfs mounts
to be shared between containers which wasn't possible before.

This is in preparation for improved page cache reclaim, which requires
greater integration between the page cache and page allocator.

This change also adds extensive testing to the p9 package via mocks. The sanity
checks and type checks are moved from the gofer into the core package, where
they can be more easily validated.

Added events for *ctl syscalls that may have multiple different commands.
For runsc, each syscall event is only logged once. For *ctl syscalls, use
the cmd as identifier, not only the syscall number.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 218015941
Change-Id: Ie3c19131ae36124861e9b492a7dbe1765d9e5e59
This change introduces a new flags to create/run called
--user-log. Logs to this files are visible to users and
are meant to help debugging problems with their images
and containers.
For now only unsupported syscalls are sent to this log,
and only minimum support was added. We can build more
infrastructure around it as needed.

are now: shared and exclusive.

Before a container can be restored, the mounts must be configured.
The root and submounts and their key information is compiled into a
RestoreEnvironment.
Future code will be added to set this created environment before
restoring a container.
Tests to ensure the correct environment were added.
