Conversation
Upgrade skywalking-infra-e2e to the branch that migrates deprecated APIs. Disable containerd image store on GitHub Actions runners to fix E2E test failures caused by compatibility issues with older Docker images. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

After disabling containerd snapshotter, the Docker daemon falls back to API v1.48 while the CLI and infra-e2e tool expect v1.51. Upgrading docker-ce and docker-ce-cli ensures the daemon supports the latest API. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Remove apt-get install which may downgrade Docker. Instead, after disabling containerd and restarting, export DOCKER_API_VERSION from the server's supported version so the Docker SDK client negotiates down. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The upgraded infra-e2e branch introduces regressions (stricter container exit handling). Revert to the old commit and rely on containerd disable + DOCKER_API_VERSION to fix Docker 29 API compatibility. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Fix CI E2E test failures caused by Docker 29 upgrade on GitHub Actions runners
GitHub Actions runners upgraded to Docker 29, which enables containerd image store by default. This causes two problems:
skywalking-infra-e2etool uses Docker SDK API v1.41, causingclient version 1.41 is too olderrors.This PR fixes both issues by:
containerd-snapshotter: false) in all Docker-related CI jobs, restoring the classic overlay2 storage driver and its default ulimits.DOCKER_API_VERSIONfrom the server's supported version so the Docker SDK client negotiates correctly after restart.Affected jobs:
docker(image build),e2e-test,e2e-test-istio,e2e-test-istio-ambient,e2e-test-java-versions.CHANGESlog.
