# Container Fork

## Introduction

This project contains the source code and binary of our paper [xxx]().
Please refer to our paper for design details.

This project is mainly divided into two parts:

1. We propose a novel container reuse mechanism that accelerates container provisioning by reusing the entire universal container, thereby eliminating the overhead of container creation and destruction.
2. We propose a process tree cloning technology (Pstree-Fork) to accelerate function process bootstrapping. This technology is independent of specific language runtimes and enables the parallel restoration of both multi-threaded and multi-process scenarios. Additionally, Pstree-Fork integrates [CRIU](https://criu.org/Main_Page)'s isolation mechanisms to prevent unintended resource sharing, such as file descriptors and shared memory.
