Currently kubelet volume management works on the concept of desired
and actual world of states. The volume manager periodically compares the
two worlds and perform volume mount/unmount and/or attach/detach
operations. When kubelet restarts, the cache of those two worlds are
gone. Although desired world can be recovered through apiserver, actual
world can not be recovered which may cause some volumes cannot be cleaned
up if their information is deleted by apiserver. This change adds the
reconstruction of the actual world by reading the pod directories from
disk. The reconstructed volume information is added to both desired
world and actual world if it cannot be found in either world. The rest
logic would be as same as before, desired world populator may clean up
the volume entry if it is no longer in apiserver, and then volume
manager should invoke unmount to clean it up.
IsLikelyNotMountPoint determines if a directory is not a mountpoint.
It is fast but not necessarily ALWAYS correct. If the path is in fact
a bind mount from one part of a mount to another it will not be detected.
mkdir /tmp/a /tmp/b; mount --bin /tmp/a /tmp/b; IsLikelyNotMountPoint("/tmp/b")
will return true. When in fact /tmp/b is a mount point. So this patch
renames the function and switches it from a positive to a negative (I
could think of a good positive name). This should make future users of
this function aware that it isn't quite perfect, but probably good
enough.
