- Part of #1318.
- Part of #1378.
- `RouteHandler` now accepts an additional `XPCServerSession` which
include a disconnect handler.
- `XPCServer` configures a session for each client connection and passes
it to every route handler.
- `XPCServer.route(fn:)` can be used to wrap existing route handlers
that don't care about sessions.
- `XPCClient` adds functions to support client-side session handling.
- Update all existing routes.
- Adds a a `--log-root` option to `swift system start`, propagating the
value as `CONTAINER_LOG_ROOT` to services for logging to files instead
of the OS log facility. This is not a "production" capability as it
neither merges nor rotates logs.
- Currently we don't collect logs on CI builds, and we don't have
permission to run the `log` command there. The PR adds `--log-root` to
the CI test phase, archives the results, and uploads the archive as an
artifact.
- Use FilePath from swift-system for the log root. Foundation URL is a
bit of a footgun for filesystem paths, so unless we identify a
showstopper, we should incrementally transition to this type everywhere
except where we really need network URLs.
- Output the hostname of the CI runner at the start of the test phase so
we can identify runner-specific issues where they exist.
- Fix formatting for log messages with multiple metadata items, and fix
unstructured messages on instances that weren't found using `grep -r
'log\.' Sources`.
- Adds command reference documentation for `--log-root`.
- Closes#1206.
- Closes#1185.
- Closes#507.
- Addresses existing log messages for #642.
- Nondeterministic CI errors are resulting from very slow launch times
for the first runtime helper, which causes ContainersService to be
locked for longer than our 20 sec timeout. Bumping the timeout to 60
seconds addresses this case for now.
- Since many log messages needed to be changed to troubleshoot the
issue, updated all log messages to use structured logging, and
implemented consistent entry/exit logging for all service operations.
- Added logging for ContainerService lock acquisition to help with
finding root cause for the slow service startup.
- Plumbed the `--debug` flag on both `container system start` and
`container system logs` so that the flag is actually useful.
- Updated the `install-init.sh` script so that can install in a custom
app root directory.
- When a user performs an `su` the effective UID changes but the bootstrap
mach port does not, so that if container is running as `alice` from a
GUI login session, it's possible to `su bob` and continue running
container. While this doesn't pose a significant security risk as it's
necessary for Alice to know Bob's password and manually enter it with
`su`, this change closes the loophole by validating that client UID from
the caller's audit token matches that of the API server.
Closes#339.
This change adds named volume support to container, providing volume
management CLI commands - `create, delete, list and inspect`. The
implementation uses EXT4 block-based persistent storage with a new
`VolumesService` actor for thread-safe operations, integrates seamlessly
with the existing container mount system through a new `.volume`
filesystem type, and provides atomic volume operations with XPC-based
API communication. Volumes are stored in isolated directories with
configurable sizes (default 512GB) and include proper cleanup and
container usage tracking for safe deletion.
Example Usage:
```
# Create a volume
container volume create mydata
# Use volume in container
container run -v mydata:/data alpine
# List volumes
container volume list
# Inspect volume details
container volume inspect mydata
# Clean up
container volume rm mydata
```
