This implements support for mounting and unmounting volumes backed by volume plugins. Support for actually retrieving plugins requires a pull request to land in containers.conf and then that to be vendored, and as such is not yet ready. Given this, this code is only compile tested. However, the code for everything past retrieving the plugin has been written - there is support for creating, removing, mounting, and unmounting volumes, which should allow full functionality once the c/common PR is merged. A major change is the signature of the MountPoint function for volumes, which now, by necessity, returns an error. Named volumes managed by a plugin do not have a mountpoint we control; instead, it is managed entirely by the plugin. As such, we need to cache the path in the DB, and calls to retrieve it now need to access the DB (and may fail as such). Notably absent is support for SELinux relabelling and chowning these volumes. Given that we don't manage the mountpoint for these volumes, I am extremely reluctant to try and modify it - we could easily break the plugin trying to chown or relabel it. Also, we had no less than *5* separate implementations of inspecting a volume floating around in pkg/infra/abi and pkg/api/handlers/libpod. And none of them used volume.Inspect(), the only correct way of inspecting volumes. Remove them all and consolidate to using the correct way. Compat API is likely still doing things the wrong way, but that is an issue for another day. Fixes #4304 Signed-off-by: Matthew Heon <matthew.heon@pm.me> |

API Reference
The latest online documentation is
automatically generated by two cooperating automation systems based on committed upstream
source code. Firstly, the Cirrus-CI docs task builds
pkg/api/swagger.yaml and uploads it to a public-facing location (Google Storage Bucket -
an online service for storing unstructured data). Second, Read The Docs
reacts to the github.com repository change, building the content for the libpod documentation
site. This site includes for the API section,
some javascript which consumes the uploaded swagger.yaml file directly from the Google
Storage Bucket.
Since there are multiple systems and local cache is involved, it's possible that updates to documentation (especially the swagger/API docs) will lag by 10-or-so minutes. However, because the client (i.e. your web browser) is fetching content from multiple locations that do not share a common domain, accessing the API section may show a stack-trace similar to the following:
If reloading the page, or clearing your local cache does not fix the problem, it is
likely caused by broken metadata needed to protect clients from cross-site-scripting
style attacks. Please notify a maintainer
so they may investigate how/why the swagger.yaml file's CORS-metadata is
incorrect, or the file isn't accessible for some other reason.
