* Add basic structure of podman init commandMatthew Heon2019-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | As part of this, rework the number of workers used by various Podman tasks to match original behavior - need an explicit fallthrough in the switch statement for that block to work as expected. Also, trivial change to Podman cleanup to work on initialized containers - we need to reset to a different state after cleaning up the OCI runtime. Signed-off-by: Matthew Heon <matthew.heon@pm.me>
* Remove old crio reference from man pagesDaniel J Walsh2019-04-13
| | | | | | | | Seems like we have some old references to crio man pages left over in the docs, since we don't mention crio in man pages we should not be referencing the man page in the see-also. Signed-off-by: Daniel J Walsh <dwalsh@redhat.com>
* Fix location of libpod.confDaniel J Walsh2019-03-30
| | | | | | | | | libpod.conf defaults to /usr/share/containers/libpod.conf. Clarify how administrators can override it and the location of the users version for rootless mode. Signed-off-by: Daniel J Walsh <dwalsh@redhat.com>
* man pages - consistency fixesEd Santiago2019-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | podman-generate and -play had the wrong NAMEs. podman-restart and -volume-prune the wrong SYNOPSIS. All the rest are varying degrees of minor: - missing a space between the NAME and description - multi-line SYNOPSIS that could be collapsed into one - use of UPPER CASE in synopsis instead of *asterisks* - improper use of **double asterisks** for options - varlink and version were transposed in podman-1 - fixed inconsistencies between the description in the man page and that in the parent manpage. These are too numerous for me to fix all. Added: script that could be used in CI to prevent future such inconsistencies. It cannot be enabled yet because there are still 35+ inconsistencies in need of cleaning. This will be difficult to review on github. I suggest pulling the PR and running 'git log -1 -p | cdif | less' 'cdif' is a handy tool for colorizing individual diffs between lines: http://kaz-utashiro.github.io/cdif/ There are other such tools; use your favorite. Comparing without visual highlights may be painful. I also encourage you to run hack/man-page-checker and suggest more fixes for the problems it's finding.

* libpod: allow to configure path to the network-cmd binaryGiuseppe Scrivano2019-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | allow to configure the path to the network-cmd binary, either via an option flag --network-cmd-path or through the libpod.conf configuration file. This is currently used to customize the path to the slirp4netns binary. Closes: https://github.com/containers/libpod/issues/2506 Signed-off-by: Giuseppe Scrivano <gscrivan@redhat.com>
* add podman-healthcheck(1) to podman(1)Ed Santiago2019-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | ...caught by hack/podman-commands.sh script. Which had a little buglet, which I fixed: add a special case for 'help', which neither has nor needs a man page. I believe the podman-commands.sh script is ready to be run in CI, hint hint. Signed-off-by: Ed Santiago <santiago@redhat.com>
* Fix link inconsistencies in man pagesEd Santiago2019-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Found via: for i in docs/*.md;do x=$(perl -ne 'if (/\[(podman-.*?)\(1\)\]\((podman-.*?)\.1\.md/) { print " $1 != $2\n" if $1 ne $2; print " ENOENT $2\n" unless -e "docs/$2.1.md" }' <$i); if [ -n "$x" ]; then echo $i; echo "$x";fi;done ...which is probably a good candidate for another CI hook, except I have no idea how to rewrite it in awk. Additionally, mark `podman refresh` and `podman container refresh` as hidden, remove its man page, and remove references to it from all other man pages.

* Fix volume handling in podmanDaniel J Walsh2019-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | iFix builtin volumes to work with podman volume Currently builtin volumes are not recored in podman volumes when they are created automatically. This patch fixes this. Remove container volumes when requested Currently the --volume option on podman remove does nothing. This will implement the changes needed to remove the volumes if the user requests it. When removing a volume make sure that no container uses the volume.

* oci: allow to define multiple OCI runtimesGiuseppe Scrivano2019-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | we can define multiple OCI runtimes that can be chosen with --runtime. in libpod.conf is possible to specify them with: [runtimes] foo = [ "/usr/bin/foo", "/usr/sbin/foo", ] bar = [ "/usr/bin/foo", "/usr/sbin/foo", ] If the argument to --runtime is an absolute path then it is used directly without any lookup in the configuration.

* hooks: Add pre-create hooks for runtime-config manipulationW. Trevor King2019-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's been a lot of discussion over in [1] about how to support the NVIDIA folks and others who want to be able to create devices (possibly after having loaded kernel modules) and bind userspace libraries into the container. Currently that's happening in the middle of runc's create-time mount handling before the container pivots to its new root directory with runc's incorrectly-timed prestart hook trigger [2]. With this commit, we extend hooks with a 'precreate' stage to allow trusted parties to manipulate the config JSON before calling the runtime's 'create'. I'm recycling the existing Hook schema from pkg/hooks for this, because we'll want Timeout for reliability and When to avoid the expense of fork/exec when a given hook does not need to make config changes [3].

* libpod/container_internal: Deprecate implicit hook directoriesW. Trevor King2018-12-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Part of the motivation for 800eb863 (Hooks supports two directories, process default and override, 2018-09-17, #1487) was [1]: > We only use this for override. The reason this was caught is people > are trying to get hooks to work with CoreOS. You are not allowed to > write to /usr/share... on CoreOS, so they wanted podman to also look > at /etc, where users and third parties can write. But we'd also been disabling hooks completely for rootless users. And even for root users, the override logic was tricky when folks actually had content in both directories. For example, if you wanted to disable a hook from the default directory, you'd have to add a no-op hook to the override directory. Also, the previous implementation failed to handle the case where there hooks defined in the override directory but the default directory did not exist: $ podman version Version: 0.11.2-dev Go Version: go1.10.3 Git Commit: "6df7409cb5a41c710164c42ed35e33b28f3f7214" Built: Sun Dec 2 21:30:06 2018 OS/Arch: linux/amd64 $ ls -l /etc/containers/oci/hooks.d/test.json -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 184 Dec 2 16:27 /etc/containers/oci/hooks.d/test.json $ podman --log-level=debug run --rm docker.io/library/alpine echo 'successful container' 2>&1 | grep -i hook time="2018-12-02T21:31:19-08:00" level=debug msg="reading hooks from /usr/share/containers/oci/hooks.d" time="2018-12-02T21:31:19-08:00" level=warning msg="failed to load hooks: {}%!(EXTRA *os.PathError=open /usr/share/containers/oci/hooks.d: no such file or directory)" With this commit: $ podman --log-level=debug run --rm docker.io/library/alpine echo 'successful container' 2>&1 | grep -i hook time="2018-12-02T21:33:07-08:00" level=debug msg="reading hooks from /usr/share/containers/oci/hooks.d" time="2018-12-02T21:33:07-08:00" level=debug msg="reading hooks from /etc/containers/oci/hooks.d" time="2018-12-02T21:33:07-08:00" level=debug msg="added hook /etc/containers/oci/hooks.d/test.json" time="2018-12-02T21:33:07-08:00" level=debug msg="hook test.json matched; adding to stages [prestart]" time="2018-12-02T21:33:07-08:00" level=warning msg="implicit hook directories are deprecated; set --hooks-dir="/etc/containers/oci/hooks.d" explicitly to continue to load hooks from this directory" time="2018-12-02T21:33:07-08:00" level=error msg="container create failed: container_linux.go:336: starting container process caused "process_linux.go:399: container init caused \"process_linux.go:382: running prestart hook 0 caused \\\"error running hook: exit status 1, stdout: , stderr: oh, noes!\\\\n\\\"\"" (I'd setup the hook to error out). You can see that it's silenly ignoring the ENOENT for /usr/share/containers/oci/hooks.d and continuing on to load hooks from /etc/containers/oci/hooks.d. When it loads the hook, it also logs a warning-level message suggesting that callers explicitly configure their hook directories. That will help consumers migrate, so we can drop the implicit hook directories in some future release. When folks *do* explicitly configure hook directories (via the newly-public --hooks-dir and hooks_dir options), we error out if they're missing: $ podman --hooks-dir /does/not/exist run --rm docker.io/library/alpine echo 'successful container' error setting up OCI Hooks: open /does/not/exist: no such file or directory I've dropped the trailing "path" from the old, hidden --hooks-dir-path and hooks_dir_path because I think "dir(ectory)" is already enough context for "we expect a path argument". I consider this name change non-breaking because the old forms were undocumented. Coming back to rootless users, I've enabled hooks now. I expect they were previously disabled because users had no way to avoid /usr/share/containers/oci/hooks.d which might contain hooks that required root permissions. But now rootless users will have to explicitly configure hook directories, and since their default config is from ~/.config/containers/libpod.conf, it's a misconfiguration if it contains hooks_dir entries which point at directories with hooks that require root access. We error out so they can fix their libpod.conf. [1]: https://github.com/containers/libpod/pull/1487#discussion_r218149355 Signed-off-by: W. Trevor King <wking@tremily.us>
