* All shared resources should be restored by a task with minimal PID for avoiding deadlocks.
+
Here are a few principles that must be taken into account while developing CRIU.
 +
 
 +
* All shared resources must be restored by the task with the lowest PID among the group to avoid deadlocks.
 +
* No operations with file paths in restorer blob — task has restored its fs (cwd and root) and may see a different tree.
 +
* In dumping code, any fork()+exec() should be done using the cr_system() helper to avoid interfering with victim task tracing.
 +

== Protobuf images compatibility ==
 +
 
 +
To retain backward compatibility of protobuf image files, follow these rules:
 +
 
 +
* Don't change the numeric tags for any existing fields.
 +
* Any new fields that you add should be optional or repeated.
 +
* Non-required fields can be removed, as long as the tag number is not used again in your updated message type.
 +
