I think this is the only remaining concern with this approach. Generally, it improves the isolation of bootloose machines a lot, but all the cgroups created inside those machines won't be cleaned up. They would, if we could somehow leverage the Docker-managed cgroups, but, due to the chicken-and-egg problem stated above, we can't.

Maybe we could run bootloose itself in a Docker container to do the cleanup? This would be a pretty heavy cleanup procedure, but it is the only way I can think of to tackle this.

Using the host's cgroup namespace along with a writable mount of the entire cgroup fs messes with container isolation quite a bit. The main purpose of this is to get a writable mount of the cgroup fs inside containers, so that init systems are able to set up their own cgroups accordingly. Use a different approach to achieve the same effect: Use a private cgroup namespace. Privileged containers will automatically have write access. A read-write mount is only performed when running non-privileged containers. Signed-off-by: Tom Wieczorek <twieczorek@mirantis.com>
