When creating a new user namespace, the kernel doesn't allow to mount
a new procfs or sysfs file system if there is not already one instance
fully visible in the current mount namespace.
When using --no-pivot we were effectively inhibiting this protection
from the kernel, as /proc and /sys from the host are still present in
the container mount namespace.
A container without full access to /proc could then create a new user
namespace, and from there able to mount a fully visible /proc, bypassing
the limitations in the container.
A simple reproducer for this issue is:
unshare -mrfp sh -c "mount -t proc none /proc && echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger"

when restore container from a checkpoint directory, we should get
pid from criu notify, since c.initProcess has not been created.

When built with nokmem we explicitly are disabling support for kmemcg,
but it is a strict specification requirement that if we cannot fulfil an
aspect of the container configuration that we error out.
Completely ignoring explicitly-requested kmemcg limits with nokmem would
undoubtably lead to problems.

Finish off the work started in a344b2d6 (sync up `HookState` with OCI
spec `State`, 2016-12-19, #1201).
And drop HookState, since there's no need for a local alias for
specs.State.
Also set c.initProcess in newInitProcess to support OCIState calls
from within initProcess.start(). I think the cyclic references
between linuxContainer and initProcess are unfortunate, but didn't
want to address that here.
I've also left the timing of the Prestart hooks alone, although the
spec calls for them to happen before start (not as part of creation)
[1,2]. Once the timing gets fixed we can drop the
initProcessStartTime hacks which initProcess.start currently needs.
I'm not sure why we trigger the prestart hooks in response to both
procReady and procHooks. But we've had two prestart rounds in
initProcess.start since 2f276498 (Move pre-start hooks after container
mounts, 2016-02-17, #568). I've left that alone too.
I really think we should have len() guards to avoid computing the
state when .Hooks is non-nil but the particular phase we're looking at
is empty. Aleksa, however, is adamantly against them [3] citing a
risk of sloppy copy/pastes causing the hook slice being len-guarded to
diverge from the hook slice being iterated over within the guard. I
think that ort of thing is very lo-risk, because:
* We shouldn't be copy/pasting this, right? DRY for the win :).
* There's only ever a few lines between the guard and the guarded
loop. That makes broken copy/pastes easy to catch in review.
* We should have test coverage for these. Guarding with the wrong
slice is certainly not the only thing you can break with a sloppy
copy/paste.
But I'm not a maintainer ;).

MBA Software Controller feature is introduced in Linux kernel v4.18.
It is a software enhancement to mitigate some limitations in MBA which
describes in kernel documentation. It also makes the interface more user
friendly - we could specify memory bandwidth in "MBps" (Mega Bytes per
second) as well as in "percentages".
The kernel underneath would use a software feedback mechanism or a
"Software Controller" which reads the actual bandwidth using MBM
counters and adjust the memory bandwidth percentages to ensure:
"actual memory bandwidth < user specified memory bandwidth".
We could enable this feature through mount option "-o mba_MBps":
mount -t resctrl resctrl -o mba_MBps /sys/fs/resctrl
In runc, we handle both memory bandwidth schemata in unified format:
"MB:<cache_id0>=bandwidth0;<cache_id1>=bandwidth1;..."
The unit of memory bandwidth is specified in "percentages" by default,
and in "MBps" if MBA Software Controller is enabled.

Commit fe898e7862 (PR #1350) enables kernel memory accounting
for all cgroups created by libcontainer -- even if kmem limit is
not configured.
Kernel memory accounting is known to be broken in some kernels,
specifically the ones from RHEL7 (including RHEL 7.5). Those
kernels do not support kernel memory reclaim, and are prone to
oopses. Unconditionally enabling kmem acct on such kernels lead
to bugs, such as
* https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/issues/1725
* https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/61937
* https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/29638
This commit gives a way to compile runc without kernel memory setting
support. To do so, use something like
make BUILDTAGS="seccomp nokmem"

Cgroup namespace can be configured in `config.json` as other
namespaces. Here is an example:
```
"namespaces": [
{
"type": "pid"
},
{
"type": "network"
},
{
"type": "ipc"
},
{
"type": "uts"
},
{
"type": "mount"
},
{
"type": "cgroup"
}
],
```
Note that if you want to run a container which has shared cgroup ns with
another container, then it's strongly recommended that you set
proper `CgroupsPath` of both containers(the second container's cgroup
path must be the subdirectory of the first one). Or there might be
some unexpected results.

This is a regression from 06f789cf26
when the user namespace was configured without a privileged helper.
To allow a single mapping in an user namespace, it is necessary to set
/proc/self/setgroups to "deny".
For a simple reproducer, the user namespace can be created with
"unshare -r".

Currently runc applies PidsLimit restriction by writing directly to
cgroup's pids.max, without notifying systemd. As a consequence, when the
later updates the context of the corresponding scope, pids.max is reset
to the value of systemd's TasksMax property.
This can be easily reproduced this way (I'm using "postfix" here just an
example, any unrelated but existing service will do):
# CTR=`docker run --pids-limit 111 --detach --rm busybox /bin/sleep 8h`
# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/pids/system.slice/docker-${CTR}.scope/pids.max
111
# systemctl disable --now postfix
# systemctl enable --now postfix
# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/pids/system.slice/docker-${CTR}.scope/pids.max
max
This patch adds TasksAccounting=true and TasksMax=PidsLimit to the
properties sent to systemd.

This is a very simple implementation because it doesn't require any

Linux kernel v4.15 introduces better diagnostics for Intel RDT operation
errors. If any error returns when making new directories or writing to
any of the control file in resctrl filesystem, reading file
/sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status could provide more information that
can be conveyed in the error returns from file operations.
Some examples:
echo "L3:0=f3;1=ff" > /sys/fs/resctrl/container_id/schemata
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status
mask f3 has non-consecutive 1-bits
echo "MB:0=0;1=110" > /sys/fs/resctrl/container_id/schemata
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status
MB value 0 out of range [10,100]
cd /sys/fs/resctrl
mkdir 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
mkdir: cannot create directory '8': No space left on device
cat /sys/fs/resctrl/info/last_cmd_status
out of CLOSIDs
See 'last_cmd_status' for more details in kernel documentation:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/x86/intel_rdt_ui.txt
In runc, we could append the diagnostics information to the error
message of Intel RDT operation errors to provide more user-friendly
information.

Memory Bandwidth Allocation (MBA) is a resource allocation sub-feature
of Intel Resource Director Technology (RDT) which is supported on some
Intel Xeon platforms. Intel RDT/MBA provides indirect and approximate
throttle over memory bandwidth for the software. A user controls the
resource by indicating the percentage of maximum memory bandwidth.
Hardware details of Intel RDT/MBA can be found in section 17.18 of
Intel Software Developer Manual:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-sdm
In Linux 4.12 kernel and newer, Intel RDT/MBA is enabled by kernel
config CONFIG_INTEL_RDT. If hardware support, CPU flags `rdt_a` and
`mba` will be set in /proc/cpuinfo.
Intel RDT "resource control" filesystem hierarchy:
mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl
tree /sys/fs/resctrl
/sys/fs/resctrl/
|-- info
| |-- L3
| | |-- cbm_mask
| | |-- min_cbm_bits
| | |-- num_closids
| |-- MB
| |-- bandwidth_gran
| |-- delay_linear
| |-- min_bandwidth
| |-- num_closids
|-- ...
|-- schemata
|-- tasks
|-- <container_id>
|-- ...
|-- schemata
|-- tasks
For MBA support for `runc`, we will reuse the infrastructure and code
base of Intel RDT/CAT which implemented in #1279. We could also make
use of `tasks` and `schemata` configuration for memory bandwidth
resource constraints.
The file `tasks` has a list of tasks that belongs to this group (e.g.,
<container_id>" group). Tasks can be added to a group by writing the
task ID to the "tasks" file (which will automatically remove them from
the previous group to which they belonged). New tasks created by
fork(2) and clone(2) are added to the same group as their parent.
The file `schemata` has a list of all the resources available to this
group. Each resource (L3 cache, memory bandwidth) has its own line and
format.
Memory bandwidth schema:
It has allocation values for memory bandwidth on each socket, which
contains L3 cache id and memory bandwidth percentage.
Format: "MB:<cache_id0>=bandwidth0;<cache_id1>=bandwidth1;..."
The minimum bandwidth percentage value for each CPU model is predefined
and can be looked up through "info/MB/min_bandwidth". The bandwidth
granularity that is allocated is also dependent on the CPU model and
can be looked up at "info/MB/bandwidth_gran". The available bandwidth
control steps are: min_bw + N * bw_gran. Intermediate values are
rounded to the next control step available on the hardware.
For more information about Intel RDT kernel interface:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/x86/intel_rdt_ui.txt
An example for runc:
Consider a two-socket machine with two L3 caches where the minimum
memory bandwidth of 10% with a memory bandwidth granularity of 10%.
Tasks inside the container may use a maximum memory bandwidth of 20%
on socket 0 and 70% on socket 1.

While all modern kernels (and I do mean _all_ of them -- this syscall
was added in 2.6.10 before git had begun development!) have support for
this syscall, LXC has a default seccomp profile that returns ENOSYS for
this syscall. For most syscalls this would be a deal-breaker, and our
use of session keyrings is security-based there are a few mitigating
factors that make this change not-completely-insane:
* We already have a flag that disables the use of session keyrings
(for older kernels that had system-wide keyring limits and so
on). So disabling it is not a new idea.
* While the primary justification of using session keys *is*
security-based, it's more of a security-by-obscurity protection.
The main defense keyrings have is VFS credentials -- which is
something that users already have better security tools for
(setuid(2) and user namespaces).
* Given the security justification you might argue that we
shouldn't silently ignore this. However, the only way for the
kernel to return -ENOSYS is either being ridiculously old (at
which point we wouldn't work anyway) or that there is a seccomp
profile in place blocking it.
Given that the seccomp profile (if malicious) could very easily
just return 0 or a silly return code (or something even more
clever with seccomp-bpf) and trick us without this patch, there
isn't much of a significant change in how much seccomp can trick
us with or without this patch.
Given all of that over-analysis, I'm pretty convinced there isn't a
security problem in this very specific case and it will help out the
ChromeOS folks by allowing Docker to run inside their LXC container
setup. I'd be happy to be proven wrong.
