When RangeEnd is given, a.end = RangeEnd+1.
If when getSearchRange() is called and lastReservedIP equals
RangeEnd, a.nextIP() only compares lastReservedIP (which in this
example is RangeEnd) against a.end (which in this example is
RangeEnd+1) and they clearly don't match, so a.nextIP() returns
start=RangeEnd+1 and end=RangeEnd.
Get() happily allocates RangeEnd+1 because it only compares 'cur'
to the end returned by getSearchRange(), not to a.end, and thus
allocates past RangeEnd.
Since a.end is inclusive (eg, host-local will allocate a.end) the
fix is to simply set a.end equal to RangeEnd.
This changes the ip allocation logic to round robin. Before this, host-local IPAM searched for available IPs from start of subnet. Hence it tends to allocate IPs that had been used recently. This is not ideal since it may cause collisions.
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).
A specific IP can now be requested via the environment variable CNI_ARGS, e.g.
`CNI_ARGS=ip=1.2.3.4`.
The plugin will try to reserve the specified IP.
If this is not successful the execution will fail.
This adds basic plugins.
"main" types: veth, bridge, macvlan
"ipam" type: host-local
The code has been ported over from github.com/coreos/rkt project
and adapted to fit the CNI spec.
