Add a namespace object interface for somewhat cleaner code when
creating and switching between network namespaces. All created
namespaces are now mounted in /var/run/netns to ensure they
have persistent inodes and paths that can be passed around
between plugin components without relying on the current namespace
being correct.
Also remove the thread-locking arguments from the ns package
per https://github.com/appc/cni/issues/183 by doing all the namespace
changes in a separate goroutine that locks/unlocks itself, instead of
the caller having to track OS thread locking.
This takes some of the machinery from CNI and from the rkt networking
code, and turns it into a library that can be linked into go apps.
Included is an example command-line application that uses the library,
called `cnitool`.
Other headline changes:
* Plugin exec'ing is factored out
The motivation here is to factor out the protocol for invoking
plugins. To that end, a generalisation of the code from api.go and
pkg/plugin/ipam.go goes into pkg/invoke/exec.go.
* Move argument-handling and conf-loading into public API
The fact that the arguments get turned into an environment for the
plugin is incidental to the API; so, provide a way of supplying them
as a struct or saying "just use the same arguments as I got" (the
latter is for IPAM plugins).
Path rewriting causes too many problems when vendoring
vendored code. When CNI code is vendored into rkt,
godep has problems code already vendored by CNI.
The plugin binary actually functions in two modes. The first mode
is a regular CNI plugin. The second mode (when stared with "daemon" arg)
runs a DHCP client daemon. When executed as a CNI plugin, it issues
an RPC request to the daemon for actual processing. The daemon is
required since a DHCP lease needs to be maintained by periodically
renewing it. One instance of the daemon can server arbitrary number
of containers/leases.
