We encountered a situation where concurrent invocations of the docker daemon on a machine with an older version of iptables led to nondeterministic errors related to simultaenous invocations of iptables. While this is best resolved by upgrading iptables itself, the particular situation would have been avoided if the docker daemon simply took care not to concurrently invoke iptables. Of course, external processes could also cause iptables to fail in this way, but invoking docker in parallel seems like a pretty common case. Signed-off-by: Aaron Davidson <aaron@databricks.com> |

pkg/ is a collection of utility packages used by the Docker project without being specific to its internals.
Utility packages are kept separate from the docker core codebase to keep it as small and concise as possible. If some utilities grow larger and their APIs stabilize, they may be moved to their own repository under the Docker organization, to facilitate re-use by other projects. However that is not the priority.
The directory pkg
is named after the same directory in the camlistore project. Since Brad is a core
Go maintainer, we thought it made sense to copy his methods for organizing Go code :) Thanks Brad!
Because utility packages are small and neatly separated from the rest of the codebase, they are a good place to start for aspiring maintainers and contributors. Get in touch if you want to help maintain them!
