Will docker use this for all filesystem? Or only filesystem which containerd doesn't support today?

Will docker use this for all filesystem? Or only filesystem which containerd doesn't support today?

The proposed snapshot proxy would only be used for snapshotters based on Docker graph drivers, which are not supported today. The proxy drivers could also be used to provided other implementations which all clients could end up using transparently, such as P2P content stores.

@dmcgowan I see. Thanks! I'm just curious whether Docker will partially use containerd image management, and partially use graph driver. Or Docker will only use graph drivers for a long time.

Sorry, I don't quite understand this PR. Why the package is called "proxy"?

Will Docker replace the grpc service implementation or the interface implementation?

I'm just curious whether Docker will partially use containerd image management, and partially use graph driver. Or Docker will only use graph drivers for a long time.

The goal is to move Docker over in stages, ultimately completely using the image management and only graph drivers to support upgrade or graph drivers which do not have a snapshotter equivalent.

Why the package is called "proxy"?

These implementations of the content store and snapshotter just proxy over GRPC, there is no concrete implementation. I used the term "proxy" here because the caller is not intended to distinguish between using the proxy or directly using a concrete snapshotter.
