2020-05-13Enable overlayfs_stale_read by default for runsc.Jamie Liu
Linux 4.18 and later make reads and writes coherent between pre-copy-up and post-copy-up FDs representing the same file on an overlay filesystem. However, memory mappings remain incoherent: - Documentation/filesystems/overlayfs.rst, "Non-standard behavior": "If a file residing on a lower layer is opened for read-only and then memory mapped with MAP_SHARED, then subsequent changes to the file are not reflected in the memory mapping." - fs/overlay/file.c:ovl_mmap() passes through to the underlying FD without any management of coherence in the overlay. - Experimentally on Linux 5.2: ``` $ cat mmap_cat_page.c #include <err.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { if (argc < 2) { errx(1, "syntax: %s [FILE]", argv[0]); } const int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY); if (fd < 0) { err(1, "open(%s)", argv[1]); } const size_t page_size = sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE); void* page = mmap(NULL, page_size, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); if (page == MAP_FAILED) { err(1, "mmap"); } for (;;) { write(1, page, strnlen(page, page_size)); if (getc(stdin) == EOF) { break; } } return 0; } $ gcc -O2 -o mmap_cat_page mmap_cat_page.c $ mkdir lowerdir upperdir workdir overlaydir $ echo old > lowerdir/file $ sudo mount -t overlay -o "lowerdir=lowerdir,upperdir=upperdir,workdir=workdir" none overlaydir $ ./mmap_cat_page overlaydir/file old ^Z [1]+ Stopped ./mmap_cat_page overlaydir/file $ echo new > overlaydir/file $ cat overlaydir/file new $ fg ./mmap_cat_page overlaydir/file old ``` Therefore, while the VFS1 gofer client's behavior of reopening read FDs is only necessary pre-4.18, replacing existing memory mappings (in both sentry and application address spaces) with mappings of the new FD is required regardless of kernel version, and this latter behavior is common to both VFS1 and VFS2. Re-document accordingly, and change the runsc flag to enabled by default.

2020-05-06Adapt website to use g3doc sources and bazel.Adin Scannell
This adapts the merged website repository to use the image and bazel build framework. It explicitly avoids the container_image rules provided by bazel, opting instead to build with direct docker commands when necessary. The relevant build commands are incorporated into the top-level Makefile.
2020-04-24Standardize all Docker images.Adin Scannell
This change moves all Docker images to a standard location, and abstracts the build process so that they can be maintained in an automated fashion. This also allows the images to be architecture-independent. All images will now be referred to by the test framework via the canonical `gvisor.dev/images/<name>`, where `<name>` is a function of the path within the source tree. In a subsequent change, continuous integration will be added so that the images will always be correct and available locally. In the end, using `bazel` for Docker containers is simply not possible. Given that we already have the need to use `make` with the base container (for Docker), we extend this approach to get more flexibility. This change also adds a self-documenting and powerful Makefile that is intended to replace the collection of scripts in scripts. Canonical (self-documenting) targets can be added here for targets that understand which images need to be loaded and/or built. PiperOrigin-RevId: 308322438
