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.

Since 1.9, the following short variant options have been
deprecated in favor of their long variants:
`docker run -c (--cpu-shares)`
`docker build -c (--cpu-shares)`
`docker create -c (--cpu-shares)`
`docker update -c (--cpu-shares)`
However, `-c` is still widely used and is considered as
a convenient option for swarm (see #16271).
This fix undeprecated the command line short
variant options of `-c` and updated the deprecated.md.

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.

This fix changes the above to `Removed In Release:`.
In addition, lxc-conf flag and API fields have already been
removed in 1.10 as well so the related description has also been

Add the swapMemorySupport requirement to all tests related to the OOM killer. The --memory option has the subtle side effect of defaulting --memory-swap to double the value of --memory. The OOM killer doesn't kick in until the container exhausts memory+swap, and so without the memory swap cgroup the tests will timeout due to swap being effectively unlimited.
Document the default behavior of --memory-swap in the docker run man page.

This fix tries to address issues raised in #20936 and #22443
where `docker pull` or `docker push` fails because of the
concurrent connection failing.
Currently, the number of maximum concurrent connections is
controlled by `maxDownloadConcurrency` and `maxUploadConcurrency`
which are hardcoded to 3 and 5 respectively. Therefore, in
situations where network connections don't support multiple
downloads/uploads, failures may encounter for `docker push`
or `docker pull`.
This fix tries changes `maxDownloadConcurrency` and
`maxUploadConcurrency` to adjustable by passing
`--max-concurrent-uploads` and `--max-concurrent-downloads` to
`docker daemon` command.
The documentation related to docker daemon has been updated.
Additional test case have been added to cover the changes in this fix.
This fix fixes#20936. This fix fixes#22443.
