`Mounts` allows users to specify in a much safer way the volumes they
want to use in the container.
This replaces `Binds` and `Volumes`, which both still exist, but
`Mounts` and `Binds`/`Volumes` are exclussive.
The CLI will continue to use `Binds` and `Volumes` due to concerns with
parsing the volume specs on the client side and cross-platform support
(for now).
The new API follows exactly the services mount API.
Example usage of `Mounts`:
```
$ curl -XPOST localhost:2375/containers/create -d '{
"Image": "alpine:latest",
"HostConfig": {
"Mounts": [{
"Type": "Volume",
"Target": "/foo"
},{
"Type": "bind",
"Source": "/var/run/docker.sock",
"Target": "/var/run/docker.sock",
},{
"Type": "volume",
"Name": "important_data",
"Target": "/var/data",
"ReadOnly": true,
"VolumeOptions": {
"DriverConfig": {
Name: "awesomeStorage",
Options: {"size": "10m"},
Labels: {"some":"label"}
}
}]
}
}'
```
There are currently 2 types of mounts:
- **bind**: Paths on the host that get mounted into the
container. Paths must exist prior to creating the container.
- **volume**: Volumes that persist after the
container is removed.
Not all fields are available in each type, and validation is done to
ensure these fields aren't mixed up between types.

This allows a user to specify explicitly to enable
automatic copying of data from the container path to the volume path.
This does not change the default behavior of automatically copying, but
does allow a user to disable it at runtime.

Moving all strings to the errors package wasn't a good idea after all.
Our custom implementation of Go errors predates everything that's nice
and good about working with errors in Go. Take as an example what we
have to do to get an error message:
```go
func GetErrorMessage(err error) string {
switch err.(type) {
case errcode.Error:
e, _ := err.(errcode.Error)
return e.Message
case errcode.ErrorCode:
ec, _ := err.(errcode.ErrorCode)
return ec.Message()
default:
return err.Error()
}
}
```
This goes against every good practice for Go development. The language already provides a simple, intuitive and standard way to get error messages, that is calling the `Error()` method from an error. Reinventing the error interface is a mistake.
Our custom implementation also makes very hard to reason about errors, another nice thing about Go. I found several (>10) error declarations that we don't use anywhere. This is a clear sign about how little we know about the errors we return. I also found several error usages where the number of arguments was different than the parameters declared in the error, another clear example of how difficult is to reason about errors.
Moreover, our custom implementation didn't really make easier for people to return custom HTTP status code depending on the errors. Again, it's hard to reason about when to set custom codes and how. Take an example what we have to do to extract the message and status code from an error before returning a response from the API:
```go
switch err.(type) {
case errcode.ErrorCode:
daError, _ := err.(errcode.ErrorCode)
statusCode = daError.Descriptor().HTTPStatusCode
errMsg = daError.Message()
case errcode.Error:
// For reference, if you're looking for a particular error
// then you can do something like :
// import ( derr "github.com/docker/docker/errors" )
// if daError.ErrorCode() == derr.ErrorCodeNoSuchContainer { ... }
daError, _ := err.(errcode.Error)
statusCode = daError.ErrorCode().Descriptor().HTTPStatusCode
errMsg = daError.Message
default:
// This part of will be removed once we've
// converted everything over to use the errcode package
// FIXME: this is brittle and should not be necessary.
// If we need to differentiate between different possible error types,
// we should create appropriate error types with clearly defined meaning
errStr := strings.ToLower(err.Error())
for keyword, status := range map[string]int{
"not found": http.StatusNotFound,
"no such": http.StatusNotFound,
"bad parameter": http.StatusBadRequest,
"conflict": http.StatusConflict,
"impossible": http.StatusNotAcceptable,
"wrong login/password": http.StatusUnauthorized,
"hasn't been activated": http.StatusForbidden,
} {
if strings.Contains(errStr, keyword) {
statusCode = status
break
}
}
}
```
You can notice two things in that code:
1. We have to explain how errors work, because our implementation goes against how easy to use Go errors are.
2. At no moment we arrived to remove that `switch` statement that was the original reason to use our custom implementation.
This change removes all our status errors from the errors package and puts them back in their specific contexts.
IT puts the messages back with their contexts. That way, we know right away when errors used and how to generate their messages.
It uses custom interfaces to reason about errors. Errors that need to response with a custom status code MUST implementent this simple interface:
```go
type errorWithStatus interface {
HTTPErrorStatusCode() int
}
```
This interface is very straightforward to implement. It also preserves Go errors real behavior, getting the message is as simple as using the `Error()` method.
I included helper functions to generate errors that use custom status code in `errors/errors.go`.
By doing this, we remove the hard dependency we have eeverywhere to our custom errors package. Yes, you can use it as a helper to generate error, but it's still very easy to generate errors without it.

if create a container with -w to specify the working directory and
the directory does not exist in the container rootfs, the directory
will be created until the container start. It make docker export of

Makes `docker volume ls` and `docker volume inspect` ask the volume
drivers rather than only using what is cached locally.
Previously in order to use a volume from an external driver, one would
either have to use `docker volume create` or have a container that is
already using that volume for it to be visible to the other volume
API's.
For keeping uniqueness of volume names in the daemon, names are bound to
a driver on a first come first serve basis. If two drivers have a volume
with the same name, the first one is chosen, and a warning is logged
about the second one.
Adds 2 new methods to the plugin API, `List` and `Get`.
If a plugin does not implement these endpoints, a user will not be able
to find the specified volumes as well requests go through the drivers.

Fixes an issue where `VOLUME some_name:/foo` would be parsed as a named
volume, allowing access from the builder to any volume on the host.
This makes sure that named volumes must always be passed in as a bind.

- Add Prestart/Poststop hook support
- Fix bug finding cgroup mount directory
- Add OomScoreAdj as a container configuration option
- Ensure the cleanup jobs in the deferrer are executed on error
- Don't make modifications to /dev when it is bind mounted

When using a named volume without --volume-driver, the driver was
hardcoded to "local".
Even when the volume was already created by some other driver (and
visible in `docker volume ls`), the container would store in it's own
config that it was the `local` driver.
The external driver would work perfecly fine until the daemon is
restarted, at which point the `local` driver was assumed because that is
as it was set in the container config.
Set the bind driver to the driver returned by createVolume.
