Overview

Package statefile defines the state file data stream.

This package currently does not include any details regarding the state encoding itself, only details regarding state metadata and data layout.

The file format is defined as follows.

/------------------------------------------------------\ | header (8-bytes) | +------------------------------------------------------+ | metadata length (8-bytes) | +------------------------------------------------------+ | metadata | +------------------------------------------------------+ | data | \------------------------------------------------------/

First, it includes a 8-byte magic header which is the following sequence of bytes [0x67, 0x56, 0x69, 0x73, 0x6f, 0x72, 0x53, 0x46]

This header is followed by an 8-byte length N (big endian), and an ASCII-encoded JSON map that is exactly N bytes long.

This map includes only strings for keys and strings for values. Keys in the map that begin with "_" are for internal use only. They may be read, but may not be provided by the user. In the future, this metadata may contain some information relating to the state encoding itself.

After the map, the remainder of the file is the state data.

Constants

const (
	// CompressionLevelFlateBestSpeed represents flate algorithm in best-speed mode.
	CompressionLevelFlateBestSpeed = CompressionLevel("flate-best-speed")
	// CompressionLevelNone represents the absence of any compression on an image.
	CompressionLevelNone = CompressionLevel("none")
	// CompressionLevelDefault represents the default compression level.
	CompressionLevelDefault = CompressionLevelFlateBestSpeed
)

Variables

var ErrBadMagic = fmt.Errorf("bad magic header")

ErrBadMagic is returned if the header does not match.

var ErrInvalidFlags = fmt.Errorf("flags set is invalid")

ErrInvalidFlags is returned if passed flags set is invalid.

var ErrInvalidMetadataLength = fmt.Errorf("metadata length invalid, maximum size is %d", maxMetadataSize)

ErrInvalidMetadataLength is returned if the metadata length is too large.

var ErrMetadataInvalid = fmt.Errorf("metadata invalid, can't start with _")

ErrMetadataInvalid is returned if passed metadata is invalid.

var ErrMetadataMissing = fmt.Errorf("missing metadata")

ErrMetadataMissing is returned if the state file is missing mandatory metadata.

Functions

func MetadataUnsafe

func MetadataUnsafe(r io.Reader) (map[string]string, error)

MetadataUnsafe reads out the metadata from a state file without verifying any HMAC. This function shouldn't be called for untrusted input files.

func NewReader

func NewReader(r io.Reader, key []byte) (io.Reader, map[string]string, error)

NewReader returns a reader for a statefile.

func NewWriter

func NewWriter(w io.Writer, key []byte, metadata map[string]string) (io.WriteCloser, error)

NewWriter returns a state data writer for a statefile.

Note that the returned WriteCloser must be closed.

Types

type AsyncReader

type AsyncReader struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

AsyncReader can be used to do reads asynchronously. It does not change the underlying file's offset.

func NewAsyncReader

func NewAsyncReader(in *fd.FD, off int64) *AsyncReader

NewAsyncReader initializes a new AsyncReader.

func (*AsyncReader) Close

func (r *AsyncReader) Close() error

Close calls Wait() and additionally cleans up all worker goroutines.

func (*AsyncReader) ReadAsync

func (r *AsyncReader) ReadAsync(p []byte)

ReadAsync schedules a read of len(p) bytes from current offset into p.

func (*AsyncReader) Wait

func (r *AsyncReader) Wait() error

Wait blocks until all in flight work is complete and then returns any IO errors that occurred since the last call to Wait().

type CompressionLevel

type CompressionLevel string

CompressionLevel is the image compression level.

func CompressionLevelFromMetadata

func CompressionLevelFromMetadata(metadata map[string]string) (CompressionLevel, error)

CompressionLevelFromMetadata returns image compression type stored in the metadata. If the metadata doesn't contain compression information the default behavior is the "flate-best-speed" state because the default behavior used to be to always compress. If the parameter is missing it will be set to default.

func CompressionLevelFromString

func CompressionLevelFromString(val string) (CompressionLevel, error)

CompressionLevelFromString parses a string into the CompressionLevel.

type Options

type Options struct {
	// Compression is an image compression type/level.
	Compression CompressionLevel

	// Resume indicates if the sandbox process should continue running
	// after checkpointing.
	Resume bool
}

Options is statefile options.

func (Options) WriteToMetadata

func (o Options) WriteToMetadata(metadata map[string]string) map[string]string

WriteToMetadata save options to the metadata storage. Method returns the reference to the original metadata map to allow to be used in the chain calls.
