moved functions that depend on linux packages (sys/unix) into a separate file
and added nop methods with a build tag for non-linux platforms in a new file.
After discussion with the CNI maintainers and representatives from Mesos and Kubernetes we've settled on this approach for passing the dynamic port mapping information from runtimes to plugins.
Including it in the plugin config allows "operators" to signal that they expect port mapping information to be passed to a specific plugin (or plugins). This follows the model that config passed in the plugin config should be acted upon by a plugin.
Runtimes can optionally return an error to users if they find no plugin in the chain that supports port mappings.
I'm sure we'd all like to see this merged soon so I'll try to turn any feedback quickly (and I'm happy to get any and all feedback - spellings, unclear working, wrong JSON terminology etc..)
A CNI network configuration file contains the plugin's executable file name.
Some platforms like Windows require a file name extension for executables.
This causes unnecessary burden on admins as they now have to maintain two
versions of each type of netconfig file, which differ only by the ".exe"
extension. A much simpler design is for invoke package to also look for
well-known extensions on platforms that require it. Existing tests are
improved and new tests are added to cover the new behavior.
Fixes #360
Hardcoding the list separator character as ":" causes CNI to fail when parsing
CNI_PATH on other operating systems. For example, Windows uses ";" as list
separator because ":" can legally appear in paths such as "C:\path\to\file".
This change replaces use of ":" with OS-agnostic APIs or os.PathListSeparator.
Fixes #358
Updates the spec and plugins to return an array of interfaces and IP details
to the runtime including:
- interface names and MAC addresses configured by the plugin
- whether the interfaces are sandboxed (container/VM) or host (bridge, veth, etc)
- multiple IP addresses configured by IPAM and which interface they
have been assigned to
Returning interface details is useful for runtimes, as well as allowing
more flexible chaining of CNI plugins themselves. For example, some
meta plugins may need to know the host-side interface to be able to
apply firewall or traffic shaping rules to the container.
Using a new ".configlist" file format that allows specifying
a list of CNI network configurations to run, add new libcni
helper functions to call each plugin in the list, injecting
the overall name, CNI version, and previous plugin's Result
structure into the configuration of the next plugin.
