This patch introduces the --clear-env and --keep-env options for
lxc-attach, that allows the user to specify whether the environment
should be passed on inside the container or not.
This is to be expanded upon in later versions, this patch only
introduces the most basic functionality.

For the lxc-* C binaries, introduce a -P|--lxcpath command line option
to override the system default.
With this, I can

lxc-create -t ubuntu -n r1 -P /home/ubuntu/lxcbase
lxc-start -n r1 -d
lxc-start -n r1 -d -P /home/ubuntu/lxcbase
lxc-console -n r1 -d -P /home/ubuntu/lxcbase
lxc-stop -n r1
all working with the right containers (module cgroup stuff).
To do:
* lxc monitor needs to be made to handle cgroups.
This is another very invasive one. I started doing this as
a part of this set, but that gets hairy, so I'm sending this
separately. Note that lxc-wait and lxc-monitor don't work
without this, and there may be niggles in what I said works

The 3.8 kernel now supporst uid mappings, so I believe it's appropriate
to proceed with this patchset.
The container config supports new entries of the form:
lxc.id_map = U 100000 0 10000
lxc.id_map = G 100000 0 10000
meaning map 'virtual' uids (in the container) 0-10000 to uids
100000-110000 on the host, and same for gids. So long as there are
mappings specified in the container config, then CONFIG_NEWUSER will
be used when the container is cloned. This means that container
setup is no longer done with root privilege on the host, only root
privilege in the container. Therefore cgroup setup is moved from the
init task to the monitor task.
To use this patchset, you currently need to either use the raring
kernel at ppa:serge-hallyn/usern-natty, or build your own kernel
from either git://kernel.ubuntu.com/serge/quantal-userns.git.
(Alternatively you can use Eric's tree at the latest userns-always-map-*
branch at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git
but you will likely want to at least enable tmpfs mounts in user namespaces)
You also need to chown the files in the container rootfs into the
mapped range. There is a utility at
https://code.launchpad.net/~serge-hallyn/+junk/nsexec to do this.
uidmapshift does the chowning, while the container-userns-convert
script nicely wraps that program. So I simply
sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu -n r1
sudo container-userns-convert r1 200000
will create a container which is shifted so uid 0 in the container
is uid 200000 on the host.
TODO: when doing setuid(0), need to only do that if 0 is one of the
ids we map to. Similarly, when dropping capabilities, need to only
not do that if 0 is one of the ids we map to. However, the question
of what to do for 'weird' containers in private user namespaces is
one I'm punting for later.

Ok... Here's the patch again. Since Serge is removing the loglevel
structure member, this patch no longer references that element.
From the original description:
1) Removes run_makedev() and the call to it from conf.c per discussion.
2) Adds an lxc.hook.autodev hook.
Note: This hook is very close (one routine level abstracted) from where
the run_makedev was called. Anyone really rrreeeaaalllyyy needing
MAKEDEV can add it in with a small shim script to do whatever they want
under whatever distro they're using, so no functionality is lost there.
3) Added a number of environment variables for all the hook scripts to
reference to assist in execution. Things like LXC_ROOTFS_MOUNT could be
very useful but others were added as well. Room for more if anyone has
an itch. All in one spot in lxc_start.c.
4) clearenv and putenv( "container=lxc" ) calls were moved to just after
the "start" hook in the container just prior to actually firing up the
container so we could use environment variables prior to that and have
them flushed them before firing up init. Nice side effect is that you
can define environment variables and then call lxc-start and have them
show up in those hooks scripts.
5) I actually DID update the man page for lxc.conf! I guess I lied when
I said I wouldn't get that done.
[... and ...]
I added the rcfile to the lxc_conf structure as suggested and moved the
setenv bundle from lxc-start.c over to start.c just prior to calling
run_lxc_hooks for the pre-start hook.

lxc-start -c makes the named file/device the container's console, but using
this with a regular file in order to get a log of the console output does
not work very well if you also want to login on the console. This change
implements an additional option (-L) to simply log the console's output to
a file.
Both options can be used separately or together. For example to get a usable
console and log: lxc-start -n name -c /dev/tty8 -L console.log
The console state is cleaned up more when lxc_delete_console is called, and
some of the clean up paths in lxc_create_console were fixed.
The lxc_priv and lxc_unpriv macros were modified to make use of gcc's local
label feature so they can be expanded more than once in the same function.
