During container startup we end up spending a fair amount of time
encoding/decoding json.
This cuts out some of that since we already have the decoded object in
memory.
The old flow looked like:
1. Start container request
2. Create file
3. Encode container spec to json
4. Write to file
5. Close file
6. Open file
7. Read file
8. Decode container spec
9. Close file
10. Send to containerd.
The new flow cuts out steps 6-9 completely, and with it a lot of time
spent in reflect and file IO.

Docker use default GRPC backoff strategy to reconnect to containerd when
connection is lost. and the delay time grows exponentially, until reaches 120s.
So Change the max delay time to 2s to avoid docker and containerd
connection failure.

It has observed defunct containerd processes accumulating over
time while dockerd was permanently failing to restart containerd.
Due to a bug in the runContainerdDaemon() function, dockerd does not clean up
its child process if containerd already exits very soon after the (re)start.
The reproducer and analysis below comes from docker 1.12.x but bug
still applies on latest master.
- from libcontainerd/remote_linux.go:
329 func (r *remote) runContainerdDaemon() error {
:
: // start the containerd child process
:
403 if err := cmd.Start(); err != nil {
404 return err
405 }
:
: // If containerd exits very soon after (re)start, it is
possible
: // that containerd is already in defunct state at the time
when
: // dockerd gets here. The setOOMScore() function tries to
write
: // to /proc/PID_OF_CONTAINERD/oom_score_adj. However, this
fails
: // with errno EINVAL because containerd is defunct. Please see
: // snippets of kernel source code and further explanation
below.
:
407 if err := setOOMScore(cmd.Process.Pid, r.oomScore); err != nil
{
408 utils.KillProcess(cmd.Process.Pid)
:
: // Due to the error from write() we return here. As
the
: // goroutine that would clean up the child has not
been
: // started yet, containerd remains in the defunct
state
: // and never gets reaped.
:
409 return err
410 }
:
417 go func() {
418 cmd.Wait()
419 close(r.daemonWaitCh)
420 }() // Reap our child when needed
:
423 }
This is the kernel function that gets invoked when dockerd tries to
write
to /proc/PID_OF_CONTAINERD/oom_score_adj.
- from fs/proc/base.c:
1197 static ssize_t oom_score_adj_write(struct file *file, ...
1198 size_t count, loff_t
*ppos)
1199 {
:
1223 task = get_proc_task(file_inode(file));
:
: // The defunct containerd process does not have a virtual
: // address space anymore, i.e. task->mm is NULL. Thus the
: // following code returns errno EINVAL to dockerd.
:
1230 if (!task->mm) {
1231 err = -EINVAL;
1232 goto err_task_lock;
1233 }
:
1253 err_task_lock:
:
1257 return err < 0 ? err : count;
1258 }
The purpose of the following program is to demonstrate the behavior of
the oom_score_adj_write() function in connection with a defunct process.
$ cat defunct_test.c
\#include <unistd.h>
main()
{
pid_t pid = fork();
if (pid == 0)
// child
_exit(0);
// parent
pause();
}
$ make defunct_test
cc defunct_test.c -o defunct_test
$ ./defunct_test &
[1] 3142
$ ps -f | grep defunct_test | grep -v grep
root 3142 2956 0 13:04 pts/0 00:00:00 ./defunct_test
root 3143 3142 0 13:04 pts/0 00:00:00 [defunct_test] <defunct>

$1 = (struct mm_struct *) 0x0
^^^ task->mm is NULL
$ cat /proc/3143/oom_score_adj

$ echo 0 > /proc/3143/oom_score_adj
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument"

This patch fixes the above issue by making sure we start the reaper
goroutine as soon as possible.

Description:
Kill docker-containerd continuously, and use kill -SIGUSR1 <dockerpid>
to check docker callstacks. And we will find that event
handler: startEventsMonitor or handleEventStream will exit.
This will only happen when system is busy, containerd need more time to
startup, and the monitor gorotine maybe exit.

This ensures that any compute processes in HCS are cleanedup
during daemon restore. Note Windows cannot (currently) reconnect
to containers on restore.
Instead of a timeout the context is cancelled on error to ensure
proper cleanup of the associated fifos' goroutines.
