Adin Scannell 1481499fe2 Simplify Docker test infrastructure.
This change adds a layer of abstraction around the internal Docker APIs,
and eliminates all direct dependencies on Dockerfiles in the infrastructure.

A subsequent change will automated the generation of local images (with
efficient caching). Note that this change drops the use of bazel container
rules, as that experiment does not seem to be viable.

iptables Tests

iptables tests are run via scripts/iptables_test.sh.

iptables requires raw socket support, so you must add the --net-raw=true flag to /etc/docker/daemon.json in order to use it.

Test Structure

Each test implements TestCase, providing (1) a function to run inside the container and (2) a function to run locally. Those processes are given each others' IP addresses. The test succeeds when both functions succeed.

The function inside the container (ContainerAction) typically sets some iptables rules and then tries to send or receive packets. The local function (LocalAction) will typically just send or receive packets.

Adding Tests

  1. Add your test to the iptables package.

  2. Register the test in an init function via RegisterTestCase (see filter_input.go as an example).

  3. Add it to iptables_test.go (see the other tests in that file).

Your test is now runnable with bazel!

Run individual tests

Build and install runsc. Re-run this when you modify gVisor:

$ bazel build //runsc && sudo cp bazel-bin/runsc/linux_amd64_pure_stripped/runsc $(which runsc)

Build the testing Docker container. Re-run this when you modify the test code in this directory:

$ make load-iptables

Run an individual test via:

$ bazel test //test/iptables:iptables_test --test_filter=<TESTNAME>

To run an individual test with runc:

$ bazel test //test/iptables:iptables_test --test_filter=<TESTNAME> --test_arg=--runtime=runc
