About Intel RDT/CAT feature:
Intel platforms with new Xeon CPU support Intel Resource Director Technology
(RDT). Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) is a sub-feature of RDT, which
currently supports L3 cache resource allocation.
This feature provides a way for the software to restrict cache allocation to a
defined 'subset' of L3 cache which may be overlapping with other 'subsets'.
The different subsets are identified by class of service (CLOS) and each CLOS
has a capacity bitmask (CBM).
For more information about Intel RDT/CAT can be found in the section 17.17
of Intel Software Developer Manual.
About Intel RDT/CAT kernel interface:
In Linux 4.10 kernel or newer, the interface is defined and exposed via
"resource control" filesystem, which is a "cgroup-like" interface.
Comparing with cgroups, it has similar process management lifecycle and
interfaces in a container. But unlike cgroups' hierarchy, it has single level
filesystem layout.
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
|-- cpus
|-- schemata
|-- tasks
|-- <container_id>
|-- cpus
|-- schemata
|-- tasks
For runc, we can make use of `tasks` and `schemata` configuration for L3 cache
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. If a pid is not in any sub group, it
Is in root group.
The file `schemata` has allocation bitmasks/values for L3 cache on each socket,
which contains L3 cache id and capacity bitmask (CBM).
Format: "L3:<cache_id0>=<cbm0>;<cache_id1>=<cbm1>;..."
For example, on a two-socket machine, L3's schema line could be `L3:0=ff;1=c0`
which means L3 cache id 0's CBM is 0xff, and L3 cache id 1's CBM is 0xc0.
The valid L3 cache CBM is a *contiguous bits set* and number of bits that can
be set is less than the max bit. The max bits in the CBM is varied among
supported Intel Xeon platforms. In Intel RDT "resource control" filesystem
layout, the CBM in a group should be a subset of the CBM in root. Kernel will
check if it is valid when writing. e.g., 0xfffff in root indicates the max bits
of CBM is 20 bits, which mapping to entire L3 cache capacity. Some valid CBM
values to set in a group: 0xf, 0xf0, 0x3ff, 0x1f00 and etc.

An example for runc:
Consider a two-socket machine with two L3 caches where the default CBM is
0xfffff and the max CBM length is 20 bits. With this configuration, tasks
inside the container only have access to the "upper" 80% of L3 cache id 0 and
the "lower" 50% L3 cache id 1:
"linux": {
"intelRdt": {
"l3CacheSchema": "L3:0=ffff0;1=3ff"
}
}

It looks like we missed this in 5930d5b427 ("Remove shfmt"), which was
causing CI to break (since it looks like the repo has moved or something
like that). Since we're no longer using shfmt, drop it completely from
the repo.

Fixes a race that occurred very frequently in testing where the tty of
the container may be closed by the time that runc gets to sending
SIGWINCH. This failure mode is not fatal, but it would cause test
failures due to expected outputs not matching. On further review it
appears that the original addition of these checks in 4c5bf649d0
("Check error return values") was actually not necessary, so partially
revert that change.
The particular failure mode this resolves would manifest as error logs
of the form:
time="2017-08-24T07:59:50Z" level=error msg="bad file descriptor"

While we have significant protections in place against CVE-2016-9962, we
still were holding onto a file descriptor that referenced the host
filesystem. This meant that in certain scenarios it was still possible
for a semi-privileged container to gain access to the host filesystem
(if they had CAP_SYS_PTRACE).
Instead, open the FIFO itself using a O_PATH. This allows us to
reference the FIFO directly without providing the ability for
directory-level access. When opening the FIFO inside the init process,
open it through procfs to re-open the actual FIFO (this is currently the
only supported way to open such a file descriptor).

The documentation here:
https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/userns-remap/#user-namespace-known-limitations
says that readonly containers can't be used with user namespaces do to some
kernel restriction. In fact, there is a special case in the kernel to be
able to do stuff like this, so let's use it.
This takes us from:

Go has supported PIC builds for a while now, and given the security
benefits of using PIC binaries we should really enable them. There also
appears to be some indication that non-PIC builds have been interacting
oddly on ppc64le (the linker cannot load some shared libraries), and
using PIC builds appears to solve this problem.

The "go build -i" invocation may slightly help with incremental
recompilation, but it will cause builds to fail if $GOROOT is not
writeable by the current user. While this does appear to work sometimes,
it's a concern for external build systems where "-i" causes build errors
for no real gain.
Given the size of the runc project, --install is not really giving us
much anyway.
