I didn't see where in the page that `--privileged` mode adds all capabilities.
I think this page once did contain that information. I got it from a Stack Overflow answer that seems to have copied from an earlier version of this same document.
> Full container capabilities (--privileged)
>
> The --privileged flag gives all capabilities to the container, and it also lifts all the limitations enforced by the device cgroup controller. In other words, the container can then do almost everything that the host can do. This flag exists to allow special use-cases, like running Docker within Docker.

A while ago, Docker split the "Domainname" field out from the "Hostname"
field for the container configuration. There was no real user-visible
change associated with this (and under the hood "Domainname" was mostly
left unused from the command-line point of view). We now add this flag
in order to match other proposed changes to allow for setting the NIS
domainname of a container.
This also includes a fix for the --hostname parsing tests (they would
not error out if only one of .Hostname and .Domainname were incorrectly
set -- which is not correct).

This fix is a follow up to #27567 based on:
https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/27567#issuecomment-259295055
In #27567, `--dns-options` has been added to `service create/update`,
together with `--dns` and `--dns-search`. The `--dns-opt` was used
in `docker run`.
This fix add `--dns-option` (not `--dns-options`) to `docker run/create`, and hide
`--dns-opt`. It is still possible to use `--dns-opt` with
`docker run/create`, though it will not show up in help output.
This fix change `--dns-options`to --dns-option` for `docker service create`
and `docker service update`.
This fix also updates the docs and bash/zsh completion scripts.

This fix tries to address the proposal raised in 27921 and add
`--cpus` flag for `docker run/create`.
Basically, `--cpus` will allow user to specify a number (possibly partial)
about how many CPUs the container will use. For example, on a 2-CPU system
`--cpus 1.5` means the container will take 75% (1.5/2) of the CPU share.
This fix adds a `NanoCPUs` field to `HostConfig` since swarmkit alreay
have a concept of NanoCPUs for tasks. The `--cpus` flag will translate
the number into reused `NanoCPUs` to be consistent.
This fix adds integration tests to cover the changes.
Related docs (`docker run` and Remote APIs) have been updated.
This fix fixes 27921.

containers may specify these cgroup values at runtime. This will allow
processes to change their priority to real-time within the container
when CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED is enabled in the kernel. See #22380.
Also added sanity checks for the new --cpu-rt-runtime and --cpu-rt-period
flags to ensure that that the kernel supports these features and that
runtime is not greater than period.
Daemon will support a --cpu-rt-runtime flag to initialize the parent
cgroup on startup, this prevents the administrator from alotting runtime
to docker after each restart.
There are additional checks that could be added but maybe too far? Check
parent cgroups to ensure values are <= parent, inspecting rtprio ulimit
and issuing a warning.

This PR adds support for user-defined health-check probes for Docker
containers. It adds a `HEALTHCHECK` instruction to the Dockerfile syntax plus
some corresponding "docker run" options. It can be used with a restart policy
to automatically restart a container if the check fails.
The `HEALTHCHECK` instruction has two forms:
* `HEALTHCHECK [OPTIONS] CMD command` (check container health by running a command inside the container)
* `HEALTHCHECK NONE` (disable any healthcheck inherited from the base image)
The `HEALTHCHECK` instruction tells Docker how to test a container to check that
it is still working. This can detect cases such as a web server that is stuck in
an infinite loop and unable to handle new connections, even though the server
process is still running.
When a container has a healthcheck specified, it has a _health status_ in
addition to its normal status. This status is initially `starting`. Whenever a
health check passes, it becomes `healthy` (whatever state it was previously in).
After a certain number of consecutive failures, it becomes `unhealthy`.
The options that can appear before `CMD` are:
* `--interval=DURATION` (default: `30s`)
* `--timeout=DURATION` (default: `30s`)
* `--retries=N` (default: `1`)
The health check will first run **interval** seconds after the container is
started, and then again **interval** seconds after each previous check completes.
If a single run of the check takes longer than **timeout** seconds then the check
is considered to have failed.
It takes **retries** consecutive failures of the health check for the container
to be considered `unhealthy`.
There can only be one `HEALTHCHECK` instruction in a Dockerfile. If you list
more than one then only the last `HEALTHCHECK` will take effect.
The command after the `CMD` keyword can be either a shell command (e.g. `HEALTHCHECK
CMD /bin/check-running`) or an _exec_ array (as with other Dockerfile commands;
see e.g. `ENTRYPOINT` for details).
The command's exit status indicates the health status of the container.
The possible values are:
- 0: success - the container is healthy and ready for use
- 1: unhealthy - the container is not working correctly
- 2: starting - the container is not ready for use yet, but is working correctly
If the probe returns 2 ("starting") when the container has already moved out of the
"starting" state then it is treated as "unhealthy" instead.
For example, to check every five minutes or so that a web-server is able to
serve the site's main page within three seconds:
HEALTHCHECK --interval=5m --timeout=3s \
CMD curl -f http://localhost/ || exit 1
To help debug failing probes, any output text (UTF-8 encoded) that the command writes
on stdout or stderr will be stored in the health status and can be queried with
`docker inspect`. Such output should be kept short (only the first 4096 bytes
are stored currently).
When the health status of a container changes, a `health_status` event is
generated with the new status. The health status is also displayed in the
`docker ps` output.

Currently the default seccomp profile is fixed. This changes it
so that it varies depending on the Linux capabilities selected with
the --cap-add and --cap-drop options. Without this, if a user adds
privileges, eg to allow ptrace with --cap-add sys_ptrace then still
cannot actually use ptrace as it is still blocked by seccomp, so
they will probably disable seccomp or use --privileged. With this
change the syscalls that are needed for the capability are also
allowed by the seccomp profile based on the selected capabilities.
While this patch makes it easier to do things with for example
cap_sys_admin enabled, as it will now allow creating new namespaces
and use of mount, it still allows less than --cap-add cap_sys_admin
--security-opt seccomp:unconfined would have previously. It is not
recommended that users run containers with cap_sys_admin as this does
give full access to the host machine.
It also cleans up some architecture specific system calls to be
only selected when needed.
