* build: use foreign automake flavor.•••This allows to stop keeping 0-sized files around just for the sake of automake not complaining about them missing. Diego Elio Pettenò2012-03-244-5/+2
* build: use libtool for linking the library, and link lxc-init statically.•••The shared object versioning on the library (soname) was completely wrong, as the ABI doesn't seem to be guaranteed between one version and the other, so proposing all of them as .so.0 is very wrong. Furthermore you generally want lxc-init static so that you don't have to add (or have a compatible version of) libcap and liblxc within a container you want to use lxc-execute with. To solve the issue, use the good old libtool to take care of the library building, and pass -all-static to the lxc-init linking stage. Also drop the manual rpath handling, and leave it to libtool to manage. Diego Elio Pettenò2012-03-242-29/+8

* do check for utmp checking at the right time•••We were doing the check for whether we need to watch utmp from a thread cloned from that which will actually do the utmp watching. As a result, the utmp file was always being watched, even if it didn't need to be. Move the check to the parent thread.

* cgroups: fix broken support for deprecated ns cgroup•••when using ns cgroup, use /cgroup/<init-cgroup> rather than /cgroup/<init-cgroup>/lxc At least lxc-start, lxc-stop, lxc-cgroup, lxc-console and lxc-ls work with this patch. I've tested this in a 2.6.35 kernel with ns cgroup, and in a 3.2 kernel without ns cgroup. Note also that because of the check for container reboot support, if we're using the ns cgroup we now end up with a /cgroup/<container>/2 cgroup created, empty, by the clone(CLONE_NEWPID). I'm really not sure how much time we want to spend cleaning such things up since ns cgroup is deprecated in kernel.

* if lxc-init can't mount /dev/shm, don't fail.•••The 'lxc-init' (a lightweight init process used by lxc-execute in place of upstart etc) tries to mount /dev/shm during startup.

* support proper container reboot•••This patch looks for Daniel's kernel patch allowing the lxc monitor to tell container reboot from shutdown based on the exit signal.

* add lvm support to lxc-create•••1. Some templates copy the cached pristine rootfs using 'cp a b' where b is $lxc_path/$name/rootfs. That doesn't do the right thing if rootfs already exists, as it will when it is an lvm or other mount. So switch to 'rsync a/ b/'. (cp can be made to work too of course). 2. Update lxc-create to support backing stores. For now only lvm is implemented.

* Support nested cgroups•••With this patch, I can start a container 'o1' inside another container 'o1'. (Of course, the containers must be on a different subnet) Detail: 1. Create cgroups for containers under /lxc. 2. Support nested lxc: respect init's cgroup: Create cgroups under init's cgroup. So if we start a container c2 inside a container 'c1', we'll use /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer/lxc/c1/lxc/c2 instead of /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer/c2. This allows a container c1 to be created inside container c1 It also allow a container's limits to be enforced on all a container's children (which a MAC policy could already enforce, in which case current lxc code would be unable to nest altogether). 3. Finally, if a container's cgroup already exists, rename it rather than failing to start the container. Try to WARN the user so they might go clean the old cgroup up. Whereas without this patch, container o1's cgroup would be /sys/fs/cgroup/<subsys>/o1, it now becomes /sys/fs/cgroup/<subsys>/<initcgroup>/lxc/o1 so if init is in cgroup '/' then o1's freezer cgroup would be: /sys/fs/cgroup/freezer/lxc/o1 Changelog: . make lxc-ps work with separate mtab. If cgroups were mounted with -n, and mtab is not linked to /proc/self/mounts, then 'mount -t cgroup' won't show these mounts. So make lxc-ps not use it, but rather use /proc/self/mounts directly. . lxc-ls in the past assumed that a container's cgroup was just '/<name>'. Now it is '/<host-init-cgroup>/lxc/<name>'. Handle that. . first version of this patch was setting clone_children on <path-to-cpusets-cgroup>/<init-cgroup>/lxc, not the parent of that dir. That failed to initialize that cgroup, so tasks could not enter it.

* lxc-ubuntu: use release-updates and release-security•••Particularly for LTS releases, which many people will want to use in their containers, it is not wise to not use -security and -updates. Furthermore the fix allowing ssh to allow the container to shut down is in lucid-updates only. With this patch, after debootstrapping a container, we add -updates and -security to sources.list and do an apt-get upgrade under chroot. Unfortunately we need to do this because debootstrap doesn't know how to.

* lxc-attach: Drop privileges when attaching to container unless requested othe...•••lxc-attach will now put the process that is attached to the container into the correct cgroups corresponding to the container, set the correct personality and drop the privileges. The information is extracted from entries in /proc of the init process of the container. Note that this relies on the (reasonable) assumption that the init process does not in fact drop additional capabilities from its bounding set. Additionally, 2 command line options are added to lxc-attach: One to prevent the capabilities from being dropped and the process from being put into the cgroup (-e, --elevated-privileges) and a second one to explicitly state the architecture which the process will see, (-a, --arch) which defaults to the container's current architecture.

* Move lxc_attach from namespace.c to attach.c and rename it to lxc_attach_to_ns•••Since lxc-attach helper functions now have an own source file, lxc_attach is moved from namespace.c to attach.c and is renamed to lxc_attach_to_ns, because that better reflects what the function does (attaching to a container can also contain the setting of the process's personality, adding it to the corresponding cgroups and dropping specific capabilities).
