This backports opencontainers/runc#2791 to rhaos-4.8 branch (i.e. on top of runc 1.0.0-rc93). In case we won't be upgrading to rc94 (once out) in 4.8, this may be of use.
This should fix https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1903228
Original description follows
It appears that briefly thawing the cgroup while freezing
greatly increases its chances to freeze successfully.
The test case I used is doing runc exec in a look parallel with runc
pause/resume in another loop, and the failure to freeze rate reduced
from 40 to 0 per minute (tested inside a VM using a busybox container
running sleep 1h, doing about 1500 pause/resumes and 650 execs per
minute), with max retries being 150 (of 1000).
This is still a game of chances, so failures are possible.
