Research direction

The issue names HostConfig.Binds and compares Docker's --mount and -v behavior when running a container inside another container. Start by tracing how HostConfig.Binds is translated into the Docker API request, then reproduce the reported mount-source-path error. Done means the bind-mount behavior and the cause of the failure are established, with a focused test or documented result.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Is HostConfig.Binds doing a bind mount (--mount) or using volumes (-v)?
