It has been pointed out that some files in /proc and /sys can be used
to break out of containers. However, if those filesystems are mounted
read-only, most of the known exploits are mitigated, since they rely
on writing some file in those filesystems.
This does not replace security modules (like SELinux or AppArmor), it
is just another layer of security. Likewise, it doesn't mean that the
other mitigations (shadowing parts of /proc or /sys with bind mounts)
are useless. Those measures are still useful. As such, the shadowing
of /proc/kcore is still enabled with both LXC and native drivers.
Special care has to be taken with /proc/1/attr, which still needs to
be mounted read-write in order to enable the AppArmor profile. It is
bind-mounted from a private read-write mount of procfs.
All that enforcement is done in dockerinit. The code doing the real
work is in libcontainer. The init function for the LXC driver calls
the function from libcontainer to avoid code duplication.

Kernel capabilities for privileged syslog operations are currently splitted into
CAP_SYS_ADMIN and CAP_SYSLOG since the following commit:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=ce6ada35bdf710d16582cc4869c26722547e6f11
This patch drops CAP_SYSLOG to prevent containers from messing with
host's syslog (e.g. `dmesg -c` clears up host's printk ring buffer).
Closes#5491

This is needed for Send/Recieve to correctly handle borders between
the messages.
The framing uses a single 32bit uint32 length for each frame, of which
the high bit is used to indicate whether the message contains a file
descriptor or not. This is enough to separate out each message sent
and to decide to which message each file descriptors belongs, even
though multiple Sends may be coalesced into a single read, and/or one
Send can be split into multiple writes.

No need to duplicate this information when we already have a
container.json file in the root of libcontainer

This duplicates some of the Exec code but I think it it worth it because
the native driver is more straight forward and does not have the
complexity have handling the type issues for now.

This temp. expands the Exec method's signature but adds a more robust
way to know when the container's process is actually released and begins
to run. The network interfaces are not guaranteed to be up yet but this
provides a more accurate view with a single callback at this time.

These are failing, and indicate things that need to be fixed. The
primarily problem is the lack of framing between beam messages.

Without this patch, containers inherit the open file descriptors of the daemon, so my "exec 42>&2" allows us to "echo >&42 some nasty error with some bad advice" directly into the daemon log. :)
Also, "hack/dind" was already doing this due to issues caused by the inheritance, so I'm removing that hack too since this patch obsoletes it by generalizing it for all containers.

Occasionally the selinux_test program will fail because we are setting file
context based on the Process ID but not the TID. THis change will always
use the TID to set SELinux labels.

Added --selinux-enable switch to daemon to enable SELinux labeling.
The daemon will now generate a new unique random SELinux label when a
container starts, and remove it when the container is removed. The MCS
labels will be stored in the daemon memory. The labels of containers will
be stored in the container.json file.
When the daemon restarts on boot or if done by an admin, it will read all containers json files and reserve the MCS labels.
A potential problem would be conflicts if you setup thousands of containers,
current scheme would handle ~500,000 containers.

This has every container using the docker daemon's pid for the processes
label so it does not work correctly.

These are unnecessary since the user package handles these cases properly already (as evidenced by the LXC backend not having these special cases).
I also updated the errors returned to match the other libcontainer error messages in this same file.
Also, switching from Setresuid to Setuid directly isn't a problem, because the "setuid" system call will automatically do that if our own effective UID is root currently: (from `man 2 setuid`)
setuid() sets the effective user ID of the calling process. If the
effective UID of the caller is root, the real UID and saved set-user-
ID are also set.
