To support multi-tenancy, containerd allows the collection of metadata
and runtime objects within a heirarchical storage primitive known as
namespaces. Data cannot be shared across these namespaces, unless
allowed by the service. This allows multiple sets of containers to
managed without interaction between the clients that management. This
means that different users, such as SwarmKit, K8s, Docker and others can
use containerd without coordination. Through labels, one may use
namespaces as a tool for cleanly organizing the use of containerd
containers, including the metadata storage for higher level features,
such as ACLs.
Namespaces
Namespaces cross-cut all containerd operations and are communicated via
context, either within the Go context or via GRPC headers. As a general
rule, no features are tied to namespace, other than organization. This
will be maintained into the future. They are created as a side-effect of
operating on them or may be created manually. Namespaces can be labeled
for organization. They cannot be deleted unless the namespace is empty,
although we may want to make it so one can clean up the entirety of
containerd by deleting a namespace.
Most users will interface with namespaces by setting in the
context or via the `CONTAINERD_NAMESPACE` environment variable, but the
experience is mostly left to the client. For `ctr` and `dist`, we have
defined a "default" namespace that will be created up on use, but there
is nothing special about it. As part of this PR we have plumbed this
behavior through all commands, cleaning up context management along the
way.
Namespaces in Action
Namespaces can be managed with the `ctr namespaces` subcommand. They
can be created, labeled and destroyed.
A few commands can demonstrate the power of namespaces for use with
images. First, lets create a namespace:
```
$ ctr namespaces create foo mylabel=bar
$ ctr namespaces ls
NAME LABELS
foo mylabel=bar
```
We can see that we have a namespace `foo` and it has a label. Let's pull
an image:
```
$ dist pull docker.io/library/redis:latest

```
Wow, that was very snappy! Looks like we pulled that image into out
namespace but didn't have to download any new data because we are
sharing storage. Let's take a peak at the images we have in `foo`:
```
$ CONTAINERD_NAMESPACE=foo dist images ls
REF TYPE DIGEST SIZE
docker.io/library/redis:latest application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2+json sha256:548a75066f3f280eb017a6ccda34c561ccf4f25459ef8e36d6ea582b6af1decf 72.7 MiB
```
Now, let's remove that image from `foo`:
```
$ CONTAINERD_NAMESPACE=foo dist images rm
docker.io/library/redis:latest
```
Looks like it is gone:
```
$ CONTAINERD_NAMESPACE=foo dist images ls
REF TYPE DIGEST SIZE
```
But, as we can see, it is present in the `default` namespace:
```
$ dist images ls
REF TYPE DIGEST SIZE
docker.io/library/redis:latest application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2+json sha256:548a75066f3f280eb017a6ccda34c561ccf4f25459ef8e36d6ea582b6af1decf 72.7 MiB
```
What happened here? We can tell by listing the namespaces to get a
better understanding:
```
$ ctr namespaces ls
NAME LABELS
default
foo mylabel=bar
```
From the above, we can see that the `default` namespace was created with
the standard commands without the environment variable set. Isolating
the set of shared images while sharing the data that matters.
Since we removed the images for namespace `foo`, we can remove it now:
```
$ ctr namespaces rm foo
foo
```
However, when we try to remove the `default` namespace, we get an error:
```
$ ctr namespaces rm default
ctr: unable to delete default: rpc error: code = FailedPrecondition desc = namespace default must be empty
```
This is because we require that namespaces be empty when removed.
Caveats
- While most metadata objects are namespaced, containers and tasks may
exhibit some issues. We still need to move runtimes to namespaces and
the container metadata storage may not be fully worked out.
- Still need to migrate content store to metadata storage and namespace
the content store such that some data storage (ie images).
- Specifics of snapshot driver's relation to namespace needs to be
worked out in detail.

This allows one to edit content in the content store with their favorite
editor. It is as simple as this:
```console
$ dist content edit sha256:58e1a1bb75db1b5a24a462dd5e2915277ea06438c3f105138f97eb53149673c4
```
The above will pop up your $EDITOR, where you can make changes to the content.
When you are done, save and the new version will be added to the content store.
The digest of the new content will be printed to stdout:
```console
sha256:247f30ac320db65f3314b63b908a3aeaac5813eade6cabc9198b5883b22807bc
```
We can then retrieve the content quite easily:
```console
$ dist content get sha256:247f30ac320db65f3314b63b908a3aeaac5813eade6cabc9198b5883b22807bc

}
]
}
```
In this case, an annotations field was added to the original manifest.
While this implementation is very simple, we can add all sorts of validation
and tooling to allow one to edit images inline. Coupled with declaring the
mediatype, we could return specific errors that can allow a user to craft
valid, working modifications to images for testing and profit.

With this changeset, we now have a proof of concept of end to end pull.
Up to this point, the relationship between subsystems has been somewhat
theoretical. We now leverage fetching, the snapshot drivers, the rootfs
service, image metadata and the execution service, validating the proposed
model for containerd. There are a few caveats, including the need to move some
of the access into GRPC services, but the basic components are there.
The first command we will cover here is `dist pull`. This is the analog
of `docker pull` and `git pull`. It performs a full resource fetch for
an image and unpacks the root filesystem into the snapshot drivers. An
example follows:
``` console
$ sudo ./bin/dist pull docker.io/library/redis:latest

Note that we haven't integrated rootfs unpacking into the status output, but we
pretty much have what is in docker today (:P). We can see the result of our pull
with the following:
```console
$ sudo ./bin/dist images

```
The above shows that we have an image called "docker.io/library/redis:latest"
mapped to the given digest marked with a specific format. We get the size of
the manifest right now, not the full image, but we can add more as we need it.
For the most part, this is all that is needed, but a few tweaks to the model
for naming may need to be added. Specifically, we may want to index under a few
different names, including those qualified by hash or matched by tag versions.
We can do more work in this area as we develop the metadata store.
The name shown above can then be used to run the actual container image. We can
do this with the following command:
```console

Wow! So, now we are running `redis`!
There are still a few things to work out. Notice that we have to specify the
command as part of the arguments to `ctr run`. This is because are not yet
reading the image config and converting it to an OCI runtime config. With the
base laid in this PR, adding such functionality should be straightforward.
While this is a _little_ messy, this is great progress. It should be easy
sailing from here.

After implementing pull, a few changes are required to the content store
interface to make sure that the implementation works smoothly.
Specifically, we work to make sure the predeclaration path for digests
works the same between remote and local writers. Before, we were
hesitent to require the the size and digest up front, but it became
clear that having this provided significant benefit.
There are also several cleanups related to naming. We now call the
expected digest `Expected` consistently across the board and `Total` is
used to mark the expected size.
This whole effort comes together to provide a very smooth status
reporting workflow for image pull and push. This will be more obvious
when the bulk of pull code lands.
There are a few other changes to make `content.WriteBlob` more broadly
useful. In accordance with addition for predeclaring expected size when
getting a `Writer`, `WriteBlob` now supports this fully. It will also
resume downloads if provided an `io.Seeker` or `io.ReaderAt`. Coupled
with the `httpReadSeeker` from `docker/distribution`, we should only be
a lines of code away from resumable downloads.

This setup will now correctly set the version number from the git tag.
When using `--version`, we will see the binary name, the package it was
built from and a git hash based on the tag:
```console
$./bin/dist -v
./bin/dist github.com/docker/containerd 0b45d91.m
```
Note that in the above example, if we set a tag of `v1.0.0-dev`, that
will show up in the version number, as follows:
```console
$./bin/dist -v
./bin/dist github.com/docker/containerd v1.0.0-dev
```
Once commits are made past that tag, the version number will be
expressed relative to that tag and include a git hash:
```console
$./bin/dist -v
./bin/dist github.com/docker/containerd v1.0.0-dev-1-g7953e96.m
```
Some these examples include a `.m` postfix. This indicates that the
binary was build from a source tree with local modifications.
We can add a dev tag to start getting 1.0 version numbers for test
builds.

After iterating on the GRPC API, the changes required for the actual

content ingestion on a key. From this, comes several new interface
definitions.
The main benefit here is the clarification between `Status` and `Info`
that came out of the GPRC API. `Status` tells the status of a write,
whereas `Info` is for querying metadata about various blobs.

This changeset adds the simple apply command. It consumes a tar layer
and applies that layer to the specified directory. For the most part, it
is a direct call into Docker's `pkg/archive.ApplyLayer`.
The following demonstrates unpacking the wordpress rootfs into a local
directory `wordpress`:
```
$ ./dist fetch docker.io/library/wordpress 4.5 mediatype:application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2+json | \
jq -r '.layers[] | "sudo ./dist apply ./wordpress < $(./dist path -n "+.digest+")"' | xargs -I{} -n1 sh -c "{}"
```
Note that you should have fetched the layers into the local content
store before running the above. Alternatively, you can just read the
manifest from the content store, rather than fetching it. We use fetch
above to avoid having to lookup the manifest digest for our demo.
This tool has a long way to go. We still need to incorporate
snapshotting, as well as the ability to calculate the `ChainID` under
subsequent unpacking. Once we have some tools to play around with
snapshotting, we'll be able to incorporate our `rootfs.ApplyLayer`
algorithm that will get us a lot closer to a production worthy system.

With this change, we add the following commands to the dist tool:
- `ingest`: verify and accept content into storage
- `active`: display active ingest processes
- `list`: list content in storage
- `path`: provide a path to a blob by digest
- `delete`: remove a piece of content from storage
We demonstrate the utility with the following shell pipeline:
```
$ ./dist fetch docker.io/library/redis latest mediatype:application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2+json | \
jq -r '.layers[] | "./dist fetch docker.io/library/redis "+.digest + "| ./dist ingest --expected-digest "+.digest+" --expected-size "+(.size | tostring) +" docker.io/library/redis@"+.digest' | xargs -I{} -P10 -n1 sh -c "{}"
```
The above fetches a manifest, pipes it to jq, which assembles a shell
pipeline to ingest each layer into the content store. Because the
transactions are keyed by their digest, concurrent downloads and
downloads of repeated content are ignored. Each process is then executed
parallel using xargs.
Put shortly, this is a parallel layer download.
In a separate shell session, could monitor the active downloads with the
following:
```
$ watch -n0.2 ./dist active
```
For now, the content is downloaded into `.content` in the current
working directory. To watch the contents of this directory, you can use
the following:
```
$ watch -n0.2 tree .content
```
This will help to understand what is going on internally.
To get access to the layers, you can use the path command:
```
$./dist path sha256:010c454d55e53059beaba4044116ea4636f8dd8181e975d893931c7e7204fffa
sha256:010c454d55e53059beaba4044116ea4636f8dd8181e975d893931c7e7204fffa /home/sjd/go/src/github.com/docker/containerd/.content/blobs/sha256/010c454d55e53059beaba4044116ea4636f8dd8181e975d893931c7e7204fffa
```
When you are done, you can clear out the content with the classic xargs
pipeline:
```
$ ./dist list -q | xargs ./dist delete
```
Note that this is mostly a POC. Things like failed downloads and
abandoned download cleanup aren't quite handled. We'll probably make
adjustments around how content store transactions are handled to address
this.
From here, we'll build out full image pull and create tooling to get
runtime bundles from the fetched content.

With this changeset we introduce several new things. The first is the
top-level dist command. This is a toolkit that implements various
distribution primitives, such as fetching, unpacking and ingesting.
The first component to this is a simple `fetch` command. It is a
low-level command that takes a "remote", identified by a `locator`, and
an object identifier. Keyed by the locator, this tool can identify a
remote implementation to fetch the content and write it back to standard
out. By allowing this to be the unit of pluggability in fetching
content, we can have quite a bit of flexibility in how we retrieve
images.
The current `fetch` implementation provides anonymous access to docker
hub images, through the namespace `docker.io`. As an example, one can
fetch the manifest for `redis` with the following command:
```
$ ./dist fetch docker.io/library/redis latest mediatype:application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2+json
```
Note that we have provided a mediatype "hint", nudging the fetch
implementation to grab the correct endpoint. We can hash the output of
that to fetch the same content by digest:
```
$ ./dist fetch docker.io/library/redis sha256:$(./dist fetch docker.io/library/redis latest mediatype:application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2+json | shasum -a256)
```
Note that the hint is now elided, since we have affixed the content to a
particular hash.
If you are not yet entertained, let's bring `jq` and `xargs` into the
mix for maximum fun. The following incantation fetches the same manifest
and downloads all layers into the convenience of `/dev/null`:
```
$ ./dist fetch docker.io/library/redis sha256:a027a470aa2b9b41cc2539847a97b8a14794ebd0a4c7c5d64e390df6bde56c73 | jq -r '.layers[] | .digest' | xargs -n1 -P10 ./dist fetch docker.io/library/redis > /dev/null
```
This is just the beginning. We should be able to centralize
configuration around fetch to implement a number of distribution
methodologies that have been challenging or impossible up to this point.
The `locator`, mentioned earlier, is a schemaless URL that provides a
host and path that can be used to resolve the remote. By dispatching on
this common identifier, we should be able to support almost any protocol
and discovery mechanism imaginable.
When this is more solidified, we can roll these up into higher-level
operations that can be orchestrated through the `dist` tool or via GRPC.
What a time to be alive!
