Let's reduce code duplication by using macro for this. Signed-off-by: Alexander Mikhalitsyn <[email protected]>
Let's allocate pidns_hash_table memory dynamically and hold pointers to it from a new lxcfs_data structure. Previously, pidns_hash_table was a statically allocated in liblxcfs, which means that it won't survive across liblxcfs reloads. Let's introduce a versionized lxcfs_data structure to keep persistent data that should survive reloads. Signed-off-by: Alexander Mikhalitsyn <[email protected]>
It's necessary as we want to be able to easily extend it and use live reloads update mechanism. This change does not break compatibility, because struct pidns_store lifetime is limited to liblxcfs lifetime. But we'll make pidns_store lifetime bigger that's why we need to start versionizing it.

Let's add keep_on_reload field to struct pidns_store. The idea behind it is that if this flag is set to true, then pidns_store entry won't be considered as a cache item which can be dropped. But instead, it will be kept across liblxcfs reloads and droped only if a pid namespace it refers die. Signed-off-by: Alexander Mikhalitsyn <[email protected]>

This bitmask can be used to represent a per-instance (technically, per pid namespace) features configuration (toggle-like). Signed-off-by: Alexander Mikhalitsyn <[email protected]>

Like we have "cgroup", "sys", "proc" subtrees, let's introduce the "lxcfs" subtree which will contain LXCFS filesystem-related data and will be used as an interface to interact and configure LXCFS in runtime. Signed-off-by: Alexander Mikhalitsyn <[email protected]>

I did a first pass on this, basically looking at the various commits and what's being modified. For now, a few things I think that should be done:

This adds ability to set per-container configuration parameters (boolean).
This can be very useful in some workloads if system administrator (or container administrator) want's to have some specific LXCFS configuration in some instances, while having defaults on the other ones.
Change is forward compatible and LXCFS can be updated with live reload. Nothing will crash. Obviously, to make new configuration sub-tree accessible full daemon reload is required.
