adityabagchi24andGitHub a58c5fe66c Adjust overcommit and max_map_count vm defaults in guest VMs (#2055)
Each container runs in its own guest VM sized to
`--memory` with no swap, so the guest kernel's
stock `vm` sysctl defaults are hit far too easily:

- `vm.overcommit_memory=0` (heuristic overcommit)
  rejects an oversized `mmap()` upfront whenever the
  reservation exceeds the small, swap-less VM's free
  RAM — even if the memory is never touched —
  returning `ENOMEM`.
- `vm.max_map_count=65530` caps per-process
  mapping count, which mapping-heavy applications
  (e.g. Elasticsearch, many JVMs) can exceed.

Saehej KangandGitHub da8bec6223 [container]: add container export for live containers (#1630)
- When container is not running, the runtime helper
  traverses the container's root fs and writes it to the
  specified tar archive or stdout.
- When the container is running, the helper performs
  the same operation but wraps it in freeze/thaw
  to ensure data integrity for the resulting archive.

0x4C33andGitHub 57b07fa2ac Verify kernel archive integrity (#1703)
Closes https://github.com/apple/container/issues/1687

The default kernel archive is downloaded from a remote release URL
during first-run setup and via `container system kernel set
--recommended`. Previously, the archive contents were not verified after
download, so integrity depended on HTTPS and the release artifact
remaining unchanged.

This change adds digest verification for kernel archives. The
recommended/default kernel now has pinned digest metadata using an
algorithm-prefixed value such as `sha256:<hex>`. `container system
kernel set --tar` accepts `--digest`; remote tar URLs require it, and
local tar archives can also be verified before unpacking and
installation.

The system config also supports `kernel.digest`, and a custom
`kernel.url` must provide a digest for that archive.

- The network plugin is the source of truth for the variant, if any,

option in the API server can create a situation where the variant the
runtime uses for interface selection is incorrect.

Bhavesh VarmaandGitHub 1d70dd6ab9 Log the graceful-stop error instead of silently discarding it in gracefulStopContainer (#1782)
- Closes #1756.
- `RuntimeService.gracefulStopContainer(_:signal:timeout:)`
  wraps the graceful-stop attempt in `do { … } catch {}`. The
  empty catch silently discards any thrown error before falling
  through to the unconditional `lc.stop()`. It is the only catch
  in this file that does not log; every other one uses
  `self.log.error(…, metadata: ["error": "\(error)"])`.
- This adds a single log line matching that convention, so
  a failed graceful stop (and the resulting fall-through to a
  forced VM shutdown) is more diagnosable. The intentional
  fall-through to `lc.stop()` is unchanged.

b2994ac369 Add container machine for managing persistent Linux VMs (#1662)
## Type of Change
- [ ] Bug fix
- [x] New feature  
- [ ] Breaking change
- [ ] Documentation update

## Motivation and Context
`container` runs each workload in an ephemeral VM, so there's no
built-in way to keep a persistent Linux environment you can log into and
work in. `container machine` adds one.

A container machine is a lightweight, persistent, and integrated Linux
environments that feel like an extension of your Mac, created from
standard OCI images with a familiar UX. The login user matches your host
account with passwordless `sudo`, your home directory is mounted inside
the VM, and each machine keeps its filesystem and runs the image's own
init system (such as`systemd` or `openrc`).

```bash
container machine create alpine:3.22 --name my-machine
container machine run -n my-machine # interactive shell
container machine set -n my-machine cpus=4 memory=8G
```

Subcommands: `create`, `run`, `list` (`ls`), `inspect`, `set`,
`set-default`, `logs`, `stop`, `delete` (`rm`); `m` aliases `machine`.
Docs added to `docs/command-reference.md` (Machine Management) and
`docs/how-to.md` ("Use container machines").

## Type of Change
- [x] Bug fix
- [ ] New feature  
- [ ] Breaking change
- [ ] Documentation update

## Motivation and Context
This PR fixes `system df` to report actual on-disk allocated bytes
(content blobs + snapshots) instead of summing per-image snapshot sizes.
Orphaned blobs are now included as reclaimable, and storage shared
across tags is no longer double counted. Also consolidates three
identical `calculateDirectorySize` implementations into a shared

J LoganandGitHub 37595a734c Remove XPC compatibility code, simplify network model. (#1616)
- Refactor network model types: replace `NetworkState` enum and

- Simplify API server ↔ plugin protocol: plugin `status()` returns
runtime status only, API server owns configuration.
- `NetworksService` `list()`/`create()` now return `NetworkResource`
directly.
- Remove lifecycle phase checks and state machine guards throughout CLI
and API server.
- `variant` is plugin-specific, it's not a required property. This PR
replaces `NetworkPluginInfo` with a `plugin` name property on
`NetworkConfiguration` and an `options` list similar to that for
volumes.
- Moved `variant` to the option list.

J LoganandGitHub c5a8d7a802 Reorganize Swift package targets for network plugin. (#1615)
- Part of #1404.
- Updates containerization to 0.33.2.
- Reorganizes network plugin targets into:
  - `ContainerNetworkClient` - network plugin client and default types
- `ContainerNetworkServer` - separate protocols for `Network` which
manages the underlying virtual network, `NetworkService`, which takes a
network and implements the API, and an actor `NetworkHarness` that
marshals between the API and the XPC protocol. The service-harness
separation will help us ensure XPC protocol compatibility in both
directions as we evolve the plugin APIs.
- Removes `disableAllocator()` which is no longer used since #1545
switched over to using XPC connections between runtime and network
plugin instances to track whether a network has attached containers.

Kathryn BaldaufandGitHub 046884df37 Use ManagedResource for volumes in CLI commands (#1607)
## Type of Change
- [x] New feature  

## Motivation and Context
Related to https://github.com/apple/container/issues/1404.

This PR adds the initial work to have volume resources conform to
ManagedResource, in alignment with other resources such as networks (see
[here](https://github.com/apple/container/pull/1421)). Further work is
necessary to move the use of `VolumeResource` down to the APIServer (in
the VolumesService) and in the volume client. Volumes do not currently
have any plugin or runtime state, so that information is not included in
the `VolumeResource`, but could be added later if needed.

Kathryn BaldaufandGitHub 8261a27ed0 Add shmSize to management flag's init (#1603)
## Type of Change
- [x] Bug fix

## Motivation and Context
Ensure all fields are initialized in the management flags' init
function. Without this change, if someone calls init() on this set of
flags, they will get an error like

```
Can't read a value from a parsable argument definition.

This error indicates that a property declared with an `@Argument`,
`@Option`, `@Flag`, or `@OptionGroup` property wrapper was neither
initialized to a value nor decoded from command-line arguments.

To get a valid value, either call one of the static parsing methods
(`parse`, `parseAsRoot`, or `main`) or define an initializer that
initializes _every_ property of your parsable type.

## Type of Change
- [ ] Bug fix
- [x] New feature  
- [ ] Breaking change
- [x] Documentation update

## Motivation and Context
Adds the `container copy` (aliased as `cp`) command to copy files
between a running container and the local filesystem.

I saw [#1023](https://github.com/apple/container/pull/1023) and the
feedback from @dcantah — the previous attempt relied on tar being
installed inside the container.
This implementation takes the recommended approach:
file transfers go through the guest agent via the existing
`copyIn`/`copyOut` methods on the core `Containerization`, with no
dependency on container tooling.

AJ EmoryandGitHub 521df518e2 Add variant Support (#1548)
- This change adds two types to support opaque runtime
  data passing through the APIServer:
  - RuntimeConfiguration `data`
  - RuntimeLinuxData type
- LinuxRuntimeData defines runtime specific information.
  With this change, it will support `variant` only. The
  optional RuntimeConfiguration `data` field encodes
  runtime specific data to pass through the APIServer.
  It is decoded as needed by the runtime.
- The idea is to eventually move all runtime specific data
  into the `data` field so that the APIServer is only aware
  of generic container information.
