1. The command `runc checkpoint --lazy-server --status-fd $FD` actually
accepts a file name as an $FD. Make it accept a file descriptor,
like its name implies and the documentation states.
In addition, since runc itself does not use the result of CRIU status
fd, remove the code which relays it, and pass the FD directly to CRIU.
Note 1: runc should close this file descriptor itself after passing it
to criu, otherwise whoever waits on it might wait forever.
Note 2: due to the way criu swrk consumes the fd (it reopens
/proc/$SENDER_PID/fd/$FD), runc can't close it as soon as criu swrk has
started. There is no good way to know when criu swrk has reopened the
fd, so we assume that as soon as we have received something back, the
fd is already reopened.
2. Since the meaning of --status-fd has changed, the test case using
it needs to be fixed as well.
Modify the lazy migration test to remove "sleep 2", actually waiting
for the the lazy page server to be ready.
While at it,
- remove the double fork (using shell's background process is
sufficient here);
- check the exit code for "runc checkpoint" and "criu lazy-pages";
- remove the check for no errors in dump.log after restore, as we
are already checking its exit code.
[v2: properly close status fd after spawning criu]
[v3: move close status fd to after the first read]

This PR decomposes `libcontainer/configs.Config.Rootless bool` into `RootlessEUID bool` and
`RootlessCgroups bool`, so as to make "runc-in-userns" to be more compatible with "rootful" runc.
`RootlessEUID` denotes that runc is being executed as a non-root user (euid != 0) in
the current user namespace. `RootlessEUID` is almost identical to the former `Rootless`
except cgroups stuff.
`RootlessCgroups` denotes that runc is unlikely to have the full access to cgroups.
`RootlessCgroups` is set to false if runc is executed as the root (euid == 0) in the initial namespace.
Otherwise `RootlessCgroups` is set to true.
(Hint: if `RootlessEUID` is true, `RootlessCgroups` becomes true as well)
When runc is executed as the root (euid == 0) in an user namespace (e.g. by Docker-in-LXD, Podman, Usernetes),
`RootlessEUID` is set to false but `RootlessCgroups` is set to true.
So, "runc-in-userns" behaves almost same as "rootful" runc except that cgroups errors are ignored.
This PR does not have any impact on CLI flags and `state.json`.
Note about CLI:
* Now `runc --rootless=(auto|true|false)` CLI flag is only used for setting `RootlessCgroups`.
* Now `runc spec --rootless` is only required when `RootlessEUID` is set to true.
For runc-in-userns, `runc spec` without `--rootless` should work, when sufficient numbers of
UID/GID are mapped.
Note about `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` (e.g. `/run/user/1000`):
* `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` is ignored if runc is being executed as the root (euid == 0) in the initial namespace, for backward compatibility.
(`/run/runc` is used)
* If runc is executed as the root (euid == 0) in an user namespace, `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` is honored if `$USER != "" && $USER != "root"`.
This allows unprivileged users to allow execute runc as the root in userns, without mounting writable `/run/runc`.
Note about `state.json`:
* `rootless` is set to true when `RootlessEUID == true && RootlessCgroups == true`.

since runc don't manage net device and their configuration, checkpoint
also don't dump net namespace by default, so set 'nsmask = unix.CLONE_NEWNET'
by default in restore. Or if user do not pass 'empty-ns network', criu will
cost extra time in restore.

With the help of userfaultfd CRIU supports lazy migration. Lazy
migration means that memory pages are only transferred from the
migration source to the migration destination on page fault.
This enables to reduce the downtime during process or container
migration to a minimum as the memory does not need to be transferred
during migration.
Lazy migration currently depends on userfaultfd being available on the
current Linux kernel and if the used CRIU version supports lazy
migration. Both dependencies can be checked by querying CRIU via RPC if
the lazy migration feature is available. Using feature checking instead
of version comparison enables runC to use CRIU features from the
criu-dev branch. This way the user can decide if lazy migration should
be available by choosing the right kernel and CRIU branch.
To use lazy migration the CRIU process during dump needs to dump
everything besides the memory pages and then it opens a network port
waiting for remote page fault requests:
# runc checkpoint httpd --lazy-pages --page-server 0.0.0.0:27 \
--status-fd /tmp/postcopy-pipe
In this example CRIU will hang/wait once it has opened the network port
and wait for network connection. As runC waits for CRIU to finish it
will also hang until the lazy migration has finished. To know when the
restore on the destination side can start the '--status-fd' parameter is
used:
#️ runc checkpoint --help | grep status
--status-fd value criu writes \0 to this FD once lazy-pages is ready
The parameter '--status-fd' is directly from CRIU and this way the
process outside of runC which controls the migration knows exactly when
to transfer the checkpoint (without memory pages) to the destination and
that the restore can be started.
On the destination side it is necessary to start CRIU in 'lazy-pages'
mode like this:
# criu lazy-pages --page-server --address 192.168.122.3 --port 27 \
-D checkpoint
and tell runC to do a lazy restore:
# runc restore -d --image-path checkpoint --work-path checkpoint \
--lazy-pages httpd
If both processes on the restore side have the same working directory
'criu lazy-pages' creates a unix domain socket where it waits for
requests from the actual restore. runC starts CRIU restore in lazy
restore mode and talks to 'criu lazy-pages' that it wants to restore
memory pages on demand. CRIU continues to restore the process and once
the process is running and accesses the first non-existing memory page
the 'criu lazy-pages' server will request the page from the source
system. Thus all pages from the source system will be transferred to the
destination system. Once all pages have been transferred runC on the
source system will end and the container will have finished migration.
This can also be combined with CRIU's pre-copy support. The combination
of pre-copy and post-copy (lazy migration) provides the possibility to
migrate containers with minimal downtimes.
Some additional background about post-copy migration can be found in
these articles:

This enables the support for the rootless container mode. There are many
restrictions on what rootless containers can do, so many different runC
commands have been disabled:
* runc checkpoint
* runc events
* runc pause
* runc ps
* runc restore
* runc resume
* runc update
The following commands work:
* runc create
* runc delete
* runc exec
* runc kill
* runc list
* runc run
* runc spec
* runc state
In addition, any specification options that imply joining cgroups have
also been disabled. This is due to support for unprivileged subtree
management not being available from Linux upstream.

The current support of systemd-notify has a race condition as the
message send to the systemd notify socket might be dropped if the sender
process is not running by the time systemd checks for the sender of the
datagram. A proper fix of this in systemd would require changes to the
kernel to maintain the cgroup of the sender process when it is dead (but
it is not probably going to happen...)
Generally, the solution to this issue is to specify the PID in the
message itself so that systemd has not to guess the sender, but this
wouldn't work when running in a PID namespace as the container will pass
the PID known in its namespace (something like PID=1,2,3..) and systemd
running on the host is not able to map it to the runc service.
The proposed solution is to have a proxy in runc that forwards the
messages to the host systemd.

This implements {createTTY, detach} and all of the combinations and
negations of the two that were previously implemented. There are some
valid questions about out-of-OCI-scope topics like !createTTY and how
things should be handled (why do we dup the current stdio to the
process, and how is that not a security issue). However, these will be
dealt with in a separate patchset.
In order to allow for late console setup, split setupRootfs into the
"preparation" section where all of the mounts are created and the
"finalize" section where we pivot_root and set things as ro. In between
the two we can set up all of the console mountpoints and symlinks we
need.
We use two-stage synchronisation to ensures that when the syscalls are
reordered in a suboptimal way, an out-of-place read() on the parentPipe
will not gobble the ancilliary information.
This patch is part of the console rewrite patchset.

We need to make sure the container is destroyed before closing the stdio
for the container. This becomes a big issues when running in the host's
pid namespace because the other processes could have inherited the stdio
of the initial process. The call to close will just block as they still
have the io open.
Calling destroy before closing io, especially in the host pid namespace
will cause all additional processes to be killed in the container's
cgroup. This will allow the io to be closed successfuly.
This change makes sure the order for destroy and close is correct as
well as ensuring that if any errors encoutered during start or exec will
be handled by terminating the process and destroying the container. We
cannot use defers here because we need to enforce the correct ordering
on destroy.
This also sets the subreaper setting for runc so that when running in
pid host, runc can wait on the addiontal processes launched by the
container, useful on destroy, but also good for reaping the additional
processes that were launched.

The error handling on the runc cli is currenly pretty messy because
messages to the user are split between regular stderr format and logrus
message format. This changes all the error reporting to the cli to only
output on stderr and exit(1) for consumers of the api.
By default logrus logs to /dev/null so that it is not seen by the user.
If the user wants extra and/or structured loggging/errors from runc they
can use the `--log` flag to provide a path to the file where they want
this information. This allows a consistent behavior on the cli but
extra power and information when debugging with logs.
This also includes a change to enable the same logging information
inside the container's init by adding an init cli command that can share
the existing flags for all other runc commands.
