Store the last cachekey generated for each stage
If the base image for a stage is present in the map of digest
and cachekeys use the retrieved cachekey instead of the base image
digest in the compositecache
* Revert "Change cache key calculation to be more reproducible. (#525)"
This reverts commit 1ffae47fdd.
* Add logging of composition key back
* Do not include build args in cache key
This should be save, given that the commands will have the args included
when the cache key gets built.
This change calculates the exact files and directories needed between
stages used in the COPY command. Instead of saving the entire
stage as a tarball, we now save only the necessary files.
Calculating a manifest from a v1.tarball is very expensive. We can
store those locally as well, and use them if they exist.
This should eventually be replaced with oci layout support once that exists
in ggcr.
and our snapshot optimizations.
If a previous base image has a volume, the directory is added to the
list of files to snapshot. That directory may not actually exist in the image.
We previously had an optimization that would skip snapshotting mutli-stage images
when in an intermediate stage, until the very end.
This conflicted with another optimization to avoid snapshotting when no files had changed.
Before we were using the full image digest, but that contains a timestamp. Now
we only use the layers themselves and the image config (env vars, etc.).
Also fix a bug in unpacking the layers themselves. mtimes can change during unpacking,
so set them all once at the end.
Right now when we find a v1.Tarball in the local disk cache, we
recompute the digest. This is very expensive and redundant, because
we store tarballs by their digest and use that as a key to look them up.
* Adds COPY --from=previous stage name/number validation
This fixes an issue in which COPY --from=previous-stage-name would try to download docker image previous-stage-name instead of checking that previous-stage-name could be a named stage.
* Fix linting issues
goimports is implemented as 'gofmt + extras', so this should fix import warnings as well.
* Fix linting issues
Fixes linting issues introduced in the merge
* Fix linting issues.
Right now kaniko only supports COPY --from=<another stage>.
This commit adds support for the case where the referenced image is a remote image
in a registry that has not been used as a stage yet in the build.

This change only uploads layers that were created from cache misses on RUN commands.
It also improves the cache-checking logic to handle this case.
Finally, it makes cache layer uploads happen in parallel with the rest of the build, logging
a warning if any fail.
This is the final part of an optimization that I've been refactoring towards for awhile.
If the Dockerfile consists of no RUN commands, or cached RUN commands, followed by metadata-only
operations, we can skip downloading and unpacking the base image.
This change fixes that by properly "replaying" the Dockerfile and mutating the config when
calculating cache keys. Previously we were looking at the wrong cache key for each command
when there was more than one.
* parse arg commands at the top of dockerfiles
* fix pointer reference bug and remove debugging
* fixing tests
* account for meta args with no value
* don't take fs snapshot if / is the only changed path
* move metaArgs inside KanikoStage
* removing unused property
* check for any directory instead of just /
* remove unnecessary check
When building Docker images, layers were previously stored in memory.
This caused obvious issues when manipulating large layers, which could
cause Kaniko to crash.

This change refactors the build loop a bit to make cache optimization easier in the future. Some notable changes:
The special casing around volume snapshots is removed. Every volume is added to the snapshotFiles list for every command that will snapshot anyway.
Snapshot saving was extracted to a sub-function
The decision on whether or not to snapshot was extracted
* Rework cache key generation a bit.
Cache keys are now based on the previous commands, rather than the previous state
of the filesystem.
* Refactor command interface a bit, only cache the context for commands that use it.
Currently, kaniko can only build a single image per container run, because the filesystem is full of the content of the first image.
When running kaniko in Jenkins, where we need to start the container "doing nothing" first (using the debug kaniko container), and then exec /kaniko/executor, this is a limitation because it means that if we want to build multiple images, we need to start multiple containers - see https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/kaniko-users/_7LivHdMdy0 for more details
A solution to fix this issue is to add a new flag to cleanup the filesystem at the end - the same way it is done between stages when building a multi-stages image. This way, the same (debug) container can be used to build multiple images.
To add layer caching to kaniko, I added two flags: --cache and
--use-cache.
If --use-cache is set, then the cache will be used, and if --cache is
specified then that repo will be used to store cached layers. If --cache
isn't set, a cache will be inferred from the destination provided.
Currently, caching only works for RUN commands. Before executing the
command, kaniko checks if the cached layer exists. If it does, it pulls
it and extracts it. It then adds those files to the snapshotter and
append a layer to the config history. If the cached layer does not exist, kaniko executes the command and
pushes the newly created layer to the cache.
All cached layers are tagged with a stable key, which is built based off
of:
1. The base image digest
2. The current state of the filesystem
3. The current command being run
4. The current config file (to account for metadata changes)
I also added two integration tests to make sure caching works
1. Dockerfile_test_cache runs 'date', which should be exactly the same
the second time the image is built
2. Dockerfile_test_cache_install makes sure apt-get install can be
reproduced
As mentioned in #346, if only ENTRYPOINT is set in a stage then any
CMD inherited from a parent should be cleared.
If both entrypoint and cmd are set then nothing should change.
I added a function and unit test to review the config file after building a stage
which clears out config.Cmd if ENTRYPOINT was declared but CMD wasn't.
I also added an integration test to make sure this works, which should
be tested by the preexisting container-diff --metadata test.
Refactoring builds by stage will make it easier to generate cache keys
for layers, since the stageBuilder type will contain everything required
to generate the key:
1. Base image with digest
2. Config file
3. Snapshotter (which will provide a key for the filesystem)
4. The current command (which will be passed in)
This will return a string representaiton of the current filesystem to be
used with caching.
Whenever a file is explictly added (via ADD or COPY), it will be stored
in "added" in the LayeredMap. The file will map to a hash created by
CacheHasher (which doesn't take into account mtime, since that will be
different with every build, making the cache useless)
Key() will returns a sha of the added files which will be used in
determining the overall cache key for a command.
CacheCommand returns true if the command should be cached. Currently,
it's only true for RUN but can be added to ADD/COPY later on (these are
different since the contents of files for ADD/COPY need to be included
in the cache key generation).
I also changed CreatedBy to String so that we can log each command
before cache extraction or regular execution takes place.
I added a KanikoStage to hold each stage of the Dockerfile along with
information about each stage that would be useful later on.
The new KanikoStage type holds the stage itself, along with some
additional information:
1. FinalStage -- whether the current stage is the final stage
2. BaseImageStoredLocally/BaseImageIndex -- whether the base image for
this stage is stored locally, and if so what the index of the base image
is
3. SaveStage -- whether this stage needs to be saved for use in a future
stage
This is the first part of a larger refactor for building stages, which
will later make it easier to add layer caching.
Kaniko uses mtime (as well as file contents and other attributes) to
determine if files have changed. COPY and ADD commands should _always_
update the mtime, because they actually overwrite the files. However it
turns out that the mtime can lag, so kaniko would sometimes add a new
layer when using COPY or ADD on a file, and sometimes would not. This
leads to a non-deterministic number of layers.
To fix this, we have updated the kaniko commands to be more
authoritative in declaring when they have changed a file (e.g. WORKDIR
will now only create the directory when it doesn't exist) and we will
trust those files and _always_ add them, instead of only adding them if
they haven't changed.
It is possible for RUN commands to also change the filesystem, in which
case kaniko has no choice but to look at the filesystem to determine
what has changed. For this case we have added a call to `sync` however
we still cannot guarantee that sometimes the mtime will not lag, causing the
number of layers to be non-deterministic. However when I tried to cause
this behaviour with the RUN command, I couldn't.
This changes the snapshotting logic a bit; before this change, the last
command of the last stage in a Dockerfile would always scan the whole
file system and ignore the files returned by the kaniko command. Instead
we will now trust those files and assume that the snapshotting
performed by previous commands will be adequate.
Docker itself seems to rely on the storage driver to determine when
files have changed and so doesn't have to deal with these problems
directly.
An alternative implementation would use `inotify` to track which files
have changed. However that would mean watching every file in the
filesystem, and adding new watches as files are added. Not only is there
a limit on the number of files that can be watched, but according to the
man pages a) this can take a significant amount of time b) there is
complication around when events arrive (e.g. by the time they arrive,
the files may have changed) and lastly c) events can be lost, which
would mean we'd run into this non-deterministic behaviour again anyway.
Fixes#251
In this refactor I:
1. Created KanikoOptions to make it easier to pass around arguments
passed in through the command line
2. Reorganized executor.go by putting the logic for pushing the image in
a new file push.go
3. Made some error messages clearer
4. Fixed a mistake in the README for pushing to AWS
5. Marked the --bucket flag as hidden since we want people to use
--context instead, and marked an aws flag as hidden which is set in a
vendored directorya
