Generate an execID for every processes #535

Closed sboeuf closed 6 years ago

sboeuf commented 6 years ago

Virtcontainers should provide an ID to every processes started on every containers. The easy thing is for container's processes, we only need to use the containerID as the execID, and for the other case, that is EnterContainer(), we will generate a new unique ID. It's important to get this ID generated from the runtime, so that we can provide it both to the shim and the agent. Indeed, the agent will expect such ID to spawn processes on behalf of the runtime, and those IDs have to match the ID from the shim. This will be pretty straightforward to implement since we already have a Token field inside the Process structure.
