Joachim Wiberg 1dcbea52b9 confd: handle ip/route additions to container networks at runtime
On any change to a container network interface we should schedule a
restart of the container to activate the changes.  This code triggers
also at boot, when applying the whole startup-config, which initctl
handles by queuing any create/touch events for services.

This patch depends on the two previous commtis backporing fixes to
Finit's initctl tool and an upgrade of the k8s-logger.

Fixes #375

Joachim Wiberg ea3bfda2de board/common: fix issue where containers without network get network
Also, log the actual `podman create` arguments to the container log so
we can see what the script actually does when customers report bizarre
happenings with containers.

This change adds limited support for container capabilities.  It allows

Joachim Wiberg 9575e03dc9 board/common: fix container upgrde for oci-archive:/ images
Add exception for local images, the "pull" step must be handled by the
operator, i.e., wget of the latest image to the same location as set up
in the image configuration, e.g., for oci-archive:/tmp/foo.tar.gz that
/tmp/foo.tar.gz exists when issuing the upgrade command.

Fixes #368

Joachim Wiberg 360d3b322d confd: use podman stop/start to prevent container corruption
Sending SIGTERM to conmon is not a safe shutdown of a podman container.
To handle gracefully handle shutdown, restarting and provide an orderly
start of dependencies, we use the Finit sysv trick via container script
wrapper to call 'podman stop foo'.

However, since podman does not support syslog as output for containers
we employ an old FIFO trick with another program, k8s-logger, to allow
logs to reach syslog.  Please note that k8s-logger must have properly
started before we call `podman start` -- this makes us fully dependent
on the 'container' wrapper script.  Hence the documentation update.

Joachim Wiberg 3b5c0248d7 confd: handle factory-default RPC better wrt. container networks
Because sysrepo callbacks are threaded and factory-default RPC is called
from a separate subscription (to prevent blocking), we cannot prevent
ietf-intefaces.c from being called before infix-containers.c, regardless
of the priority we set for our subscriptions.

When assigning a physical network interface this becomes a bit of a pain
during factory-default RPC since the physical interface is hidden from
the host network namespace.

So, when applying factory to running, we check each interface if it was
a container-network previously, if so we call on the container script in
the exit of the current dagger generation to move the interface back to
the host netns.

This affects all other functions that assume interfaces only live in the
host netns.  To that end a set of new helper functions have been added
to wrap iproute2 commands in nsenter when the interface lives elsewhere.

Joachim Wiberg a6f6fcac6a confd: add support for oci: and oci-archive: images
1. add support for extracting, and finding the directory holding the
    index.json metadata file in, OCI images.  An archive in Infix is either
    a .tar or .tar.gz archive, which we need to unpack for this version of
    podman to be able to load them.
 2. new RPC '/infix-containers:oci-load' calls 'container load' of an
    OCI archive (tarball), optionally gzipped.  The resulting image uses
    the directory name of the unpacked tarball, so the container script
    offers a way to retag the image after loading it.

First class citizens in container transport are docker:// and the OCI
family of URI:s.  A docker:// URL, or a local docker-archive:path, is
assumed to be well formed, in which case we leave it up to podman to
handle.

Note: 'podman import' does not fully understand OCI formats.  It drops
      ENTRYPOINT and COMMAND, while 'podman load' handles things a lot
      better.  Only letdown is it does not support nameing the image.

Joachim Wiberg 580599f549 confd: misc. fixes and cleanup
- drop debug logs
 - no need to restart upgraded containers, they restart automatically
 - fix ordering in volume prune (when containers are removed)
 - skip directories in container activation (inbox -> execd queue)
 - Fix 'container pull IMG creds USER[:PASS]' bug, extra '=' variable
   assignment inside infix.xml
 - Fix 'container run IMG CMD ARGS' to actually put the CMD in
   ENTRYPOINT and append ARGS to image.  The podman run and create
   commands are *not* behaving the same way
 - Rename 'attach' to 'exec', execute command inside an running container
 - Add 'container [shell | connect]' to start shell in -- " -- " -- " --
 - Add 'container [stat | cleanup | usage stats]' commands
 - Add in="tty" to commands thay may end up being interactive
 - Split <ACTION> line into multiple lines for readability
 - Fix container shift logic:

     root@infix-00-00-00:/> show container
     /usr/sbin/container: line 361: shift: shift count out of range

    edit file ntp.conf
    set path /etc/ntp.conf
    set content

The last command opens a text editor where you can paste the contents
of the file.  This is stored base64 encoded in the datastore as well
as in JSON/XML.

Joachim Wiberg 31502c8aab confd: add support for upgrading container images
This patch adds a new CLI command 'container upgrade foo', where 'foo'
is the name of the container.  If more than one container use the same
image, multiple upgrades must be done because a container runs not on
the 'image:tag' but on the hash of the 'image:tag' it was created from.

Rename "done" queue to "active", since we want to recreate an active
container after fetching an updated base image.

Joachim Wiberg aafa88b648 confd: add support for container volumes
This commit adds support for writable container volumes.  A volume, when
compared to a mount, is a writable directory created when the container
starts and is automatically rsync'ed with the underlying directory it
is mounted on on first use.  A mount otoh does not rsync so it results
only in an empty directory inside the container.

The podman/docker mount feature will be used later to bind mount single
files or sharing directories from the host, e.g., /sys/class/leds/ to
one of more containers.

Note: unused volumes are automatically pruned.  Hence, a volume
      currently cannot be moved to another container.

Joachim Wiberg d8dde9cde2 confd: add support for custom container ENTRYPOINT
This was a tough nut to crack.  Turns out the trick to changing the
ENTRYPOINT is to set --entrypoint=command and then call 'podman create
... command args'.  Not entirely obvious since the documented approach
is to use a JSON array as the argument: podman create
--entrypoint='["command", "args" ]'.

Admittedly, encoding this in C to transfer it via a POSIX shell script
to the command line, is not the easiest task I've undertaken.  So I gave
up and found this workaround.

Worth noting, however, is that one *must* set `--entrypoint`, it is not
enough to just append the command to the 'podman create' command line.
Due to differences in docker and podman, we cannot supply the full args
to an alternate entrypoint command.  But for the command to actually run
we need to override the image's ENTRYPOINT and send the command and args
as the last arguments on the command line to podman create.
