INET demo script

[Dan Smith <danms@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Below is a proposed test script for demonstrating INET socket
migration.  It does the following:

  1. Sets up a virtual interface and plumbs it to an existing bridge,
     both on checkpoint and restart
  2. On checkpoint:
    a. Starts an instance of sendmail
    b. Checkpoints it on request to an image file
    c. Kills off the sendmail instance
  3. On restart:
    a. Pre-freezes traffic to the shared IP
    b. Restarts the image
    c. Un-freezes traffic

With this and the patch I'm about to post, I can migrate a sendmail
instance with live connections between two machines.

# Example script to demonstrate sendmail migration
#
# Copyright 2009 IBM Corp.
# Author: Dan Smith <danms@xxxxxxxxxx>
#
# This script can be run in checkpoint or restart mode
#
# In checkpoint, we set up a veth pair, attach one side to $BRIDGE
# and give the other side $CONTAINER_IP.  Then we start sendmail (must
# be configured to listen on 0.0.0.0 or $CONTAINER_IP), wait for the
# user to signal, and then checkpoint sendmail.  After the checkpoint,
# we kill it off, tear down the veth and quit.
#
# On restart, we set up the veth pair again, filter traffic to $CONTAINER_IP,
# restart from the image, and then release the traffic filter.
#
# NOTE THE FOLLOWING BEFORE RUNNING:
#
# 1. This script *deletes* your /dev/log node
# 2. This script munges your iptables tables
# 3. You must have a bridge to your local network, specified by $BRIDGE
# 4. You must put a valid local network address in $CONTAINER_IP
# 5. You must have cgroup mounted with -ofreezer on $FREEZER
