daemon: raise default minimum API version to v1.24
The daemon currently provides support for API versions all the way back
to v1.12, which is the version of the API that shipped with docker 1.0. On
Windows, the minimum supported version is v1.24.

Such old versions of the client are rare, and supporting older API versions
has accumulated significant amounts of code to remain backward-compatible
(which is largely untested, and a "best-effort" at most).

This patch updates the minimum API version to v1.24, which is the fallback
API version used when API-version negotiation fails. The intent is to start
deprecating older API versions, but no code is removed yet as part of this
patch, and a DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION environment variable is added, which
allows overriding the minimum version (to allow restoring the behavior from
before this patch).

With this patch the daemon defaults to API v1.24 as minimum:

    docker version
    Client:
     Version:           24.0.2
     API version:       1.43
     Go version:        go1.20.4

Trying to use an older version of the API produces an error:

    DOCKER_API_VERSION=1.23 docker version
    Client:
     Version:           24.0.2
     API version:       1.23 (downgraded from 1.43)
     Go version:        go1.20.4

     Context:           default
    Error response from daemon: client version 1.23 is too old. Minimum supported API version is 1.24, please upgrade your client to a newer version

To restore the previous minimum, users can start the daemon with the
DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION environment variable set:

    DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION=1.12 dockerd

API 1.12 is the oldest supported API version on Linux;

    docker version

When using the `DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION` with a version of the API that
is not supported, an error is produced when starting the daemon;

    DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION=1.11 dockerd --validate
    invalid DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION: minimum supported API version is 1.12: 1.11

    DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION=1.45 dockerd --validate
    invalid DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION: maximum supported API version is 1.44: 1.45

Specifying a malformed API version also produces the same error;

    DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION=hello dockerd --validate
    invalid DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION: minimum supported API version is 1.12: hello

About

This directory contains a collection of scripts used to build and manage this repository. If there are any issues regarding the intention of a particular script (or even part of a certain script), please reach out to us. It may help us either refine our current scripts, or add on new ones that are appropriate for a given use case.

DinD (dind.sh)

DinD is a wrapper script which allows Docker to be run inside a Docker container. DinD requires the container to be run with privileged mode enabled.

Generate Authors (generate-authors.sh)

Generates AUTHORS; a file with all the names and corresponding emails of individual contributors. AUTHORS can be found in the home directory of this repository.

Make

There are two make files, each with different extensions. Neither are supposed to be called directly; only invoke make. Both scripts run inside a Docker container.

make.ps1

  • The Windows native build script that uses PowerShell semantics; it is limited unlike hack\make.sh since it does not provide support for the full set of operations provided by the Linux counterpart, make.sh. However, make.ps1 does provide support for local Windows development and Windows to Windows CI. More information is found within make.ps1 by the author, @jhowardmsft

make.sh

  • Referenced via make test when running tests on a local machine, or directly referenced when running tests inside a Docker development container.
  • When running on a local machine, make test to run all tests found in test, test-unit, test-integration, and test-docker-py on your local machine. The default timeout is set in make.sh to 60 minutes (${TIMEOUT:=60m}), since it currently takes up to an hour to run all of the tests.
  • When running inside a Docker development container, hack/make.sh does not have a single target that runs all the tests. You need to provide a single command line with multiple targets that performs the same thing. An example referenced from Run targets inside a development container: root@5f8630b873fe:/go/src/github.com/moby/moby# hack/make.sh dynbinary binary test-unit test-integration test-docker-py
  • For more information related to testing outside the scope of this README, refer to Run tests and test documentation

Vendor (vendor.sh)

A shell script that is a wrapper around go mod vendor.
