This introduces a new lxc-autostart binary (and associated manpage)
which will let you start/shutdown/kill/restart any container that's
marked as lxc.start.auto=1. It respects the lxc.start.delay value,
sorts by lxc.start.order and filters by lxc.group.
By default it'll affect all containers that DO NOT have lxc.group
set. If -g is specified, ONLY containers in those group will be
affected. To have a command applied to all containers, the -a
argument can be used.
A -L flag is also offered for distributions wishing to start the
containers themselves while still using LXC's calculated order and
wait delays. Instead of performing the action, it'll print the container
name and (if relevant for the action) the wait time.

This introduces a new /usr/share/lxc/config directory containing common
configuration snippets.
The two Ubuntu templates are then simplified to just include the
relevant entries avoiding a whole lot of hardcoded cgroup, capabilities
and mount points configuration.
An extra comment is also added at the top of all generated configuration
files telling the user to look at lxc.conf(5) for more information.

This adds an lxc-centos template for crreating CentOS 5+ templates. It
does NOT create CentOS 4 or earlier containers as these are way past
end of life and no longer supported. It is based on the work of
Fajar A. Nugraha <github@fajar.net> who modified an earlier Fedora
template. His work has been brought LARGELY into congruence with
the current Fedora template. It still lacks the distro agnostic
bootstrap and systemd code from the Fedora template but those should
only be relevant with CentOS 7 when that can of worms pops open
sometime next year or so.

Currently, a maximum of one LSM within LXC will be initialized and
used. If in the future stacked LSMs become a reality, we can support it
without changing the configuration syntax and add support for more than
a single LSM at a time to the lsm code.
Generic LXC code should note that lsm_process_label_set() will take
effect "now" for AppArmor, and upon exec() for SELinux.

It uses the newuidmap and newgidmap program to start a shell in
a mapped user namespace. While newuidmap and newgidmap are
setuid-root, lxc-usernsexec is not.
If new{ug}idmap are not available, then this program is not
built or installed. Otherwise, it will be used to support creating,
starting, destroying, etc containers by unprivileged users using
their authorized subuids and subgids.
Example:
usernsexec -m u:0:100000:1 -- /bin/bash
will, if the user is authorized to use subuid 100000, start a
bash shell in a user namespace where 100000 on the host is
mapped to root in the namespace, and the shell is running as
(privileged) root.

1. implement bdev->create:
python and lua: send NULL for bdevtype and bdevspecs.
They'll want to be updated to pass those in in a way that makes
sense, but I can't think about that right now.
2. templates: pass --rootfs
If the container is backed by a device which must be mounted (i.e.
lvm) then pass the actual rootfs mount destination to the
templates.
Note that the lxc.rootfs can be a mounted block device. The template
should actually be installing the rootfs under the path where the
lxc.rootfs is *mounted*.
Still, some people like to run templates by hand and assume purely
directory backed containers, so continue to support that use case
(i.e. if no --rootfs is listed).
Make sure the templates don't re-write lxc.rootfs if it is
already in the config. (Most were already checking for that)
3. Replace lxc-create script with lxc_create.c program.
Changelog:
May 24: when creating a container, create $lxcpath/$name/partial,
and flock it. When done, close that file and unlink it. In
lxc_container_new() and lxcapi_start(), check for this file. If
it is locked, create is ongoing. If it exists but is not locked,
create() was killed - remove the container.
May 24: dont disk-lock during lxcapi_create. The partial lock
is sufficient.

implement c->reboot(c) in the api.
Also if the container is not running, return -2. Currently
lxc-stop will return 0, so you cannot tell the difference
between successfull stopping and noop.
Per stgraber's email:
- Remove lxc-shutdown
- Change lxc-stop so that:
* Default behaviour is to call shutdown(), wait 15s for STOPPED, if
not STOPPED, print a message to the user and call stop() [ NOTE:
actually 60 seconds per followup thread]
* We have a -r option to reboot the container (with proper check that
the container indeed rebooted within the next 15s)
* We have a -s option to shutdown the container without the automatic
fallback to stop()
* Add a -k option allowing a user to just kill a container
(equivalent to old lxc-stop, no shutdown() call and no delay).
and update manpages.

Add a template to create a cirros container. One great thing about
cirros is that the image you download is 3.5M.
Thanks smoser!
Note by default /etc/inittab doesn't have a /dev/console entry, so you
don't get a login on the lxc-start console. Adding
console::respawn:/sbin/getty 115200 console
makes that work, but ctrl-c still gets forwarded to init which then
reboots. So I didn't bother adding console as part of the template
(yet). Instead I simply lxc-start -d, then lxc-console.

1. commonize waitpid users to use a single helper. We frequently want
to run something in a clean namespace, or fork off a script. This
lets us keep the function doing fork:(1)exec(2)waitpid simpler.
2. start a blockdev backend implementation. This will be used for
mounting, copying, and snapshotting container filesystems.
3. implement btrfs, lvm, directory, and overlayfs backends.
4. For overlayfs, support a new lxc.rootfs format of
'bdevtype:<extra>'. This means you can now use overlayfs-based
containers without using lxc-start-ephemeral, by using
lxc.rootfs = overlayfs:/readonly-dir:writeable-dir
5. add a set of simple clone testcases
6. Write a new lxc_clone.c based on api clone.
Still to do (there's more, but off top of my head):
1. support zfs, aufs
2. have clone handle other mount entries (right now it only clones
the rootfs)
3. python, lua, and go bindings (not me :)
4. lxc-destroy: if lvm backing store, check for snapshots of it.
(what about directories which have overlayfs clones?)
Changes since v2:
Initialize random generator when picking new macaddr (reported
by caglar@10ur.org)
Fix wrong use of bitmask flags
On copy-clone of btrfs, create a subvolume
lxc_clone.c: respect the command line usage of the old script
lxc-clone(1): update documentation
Refuse to try changing backing stores expect to overlayfs, as
it is not implemented (yet) anyway.

Commit 69fe23ff added checking for the older docbook2man back into

Fedora when docbook2X is not installed as docbook2man will be found but the
docs don't actually build with that tool.
This change makes it so the docs can be built with either the older
docbook2man or the newer 2X tools by using configure to set the dtd
string to an appropriate value depending on use of docbook2man or
db2x_docbook2man.
Also fixed a small error in lxc-destroy.sgml.in that was noticed
