The typical filesystem image formats for Charliecloud are SquashFS and tar archives. SquashFS is a compressed, read-only filesystem that unprivileged users can mount in user space with SquashFUSE; it is the preferred image format due to its various efficiencies. The previous SquashFS workflow was non-ideal due to user complexity and difficulties with HPC job schedulers.
We have designed a workflow that requires us to link SquashFUSE to Charliecloud to enable the new mount/unmount procedure of only needing a single user command. Also, an additional persistent process is needed to service the FUSE requests called the FUSE loop: once the containerized application process finishes, it unmounts the SquashFS and ends the FUSE loop. Our SquashFS workflow is currently in production with it being more user friendly, cleans up after itself and is more compatible with HPC job schedulers. We were able to reduce user commands from 3 to 1, increase reliability and decrease mount/unmount time by more than 50%.
