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
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
above - since start.c is doing lxc_monitor_send_state etc
to the shared abstract unix domain socket.
* Need to handle the cgroup conflicts.

What is lxc:
The container technology is actively being pushed into the mainstream linux
kernel. It provides the resource management through the control groups aka
process containers and resource isolation through the namespaces.
The linux containers, lxc, aims to use these new functionalities to pro-
vide an userspace container object which provides full resource isolation
and resource control for an applications or a system.
The first objective of this project is to make the life easier for the ker-
nel developers involved in the containers project and especially to con-
tinue working on the Checkpoint/Restart new features. The lxc is small
enough to easily manage a container with simple command lines and complete
enough to be used for other purposes.
Using lxc:
Refer the lxc* man pages (generated from doc/* files)
Downloading the current source code:
Source for the latest released version can always be downloaded from
http://lxc.sourceforge.net/download/lxc
You can browse the up to the minute source code and change history online.
http://lxc.git.sourceforge.net
For an even more bleeding edge experience, you may want to look at the
staging branch where all changes aimed at the next release land before
getting pulled into the master branch.
http://github.com/lxc/lxc
For detailed build instruction refer to INSTALL and man lxc man page
but a short command line should work:
./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && sudo make install
preceded by ./autogen.sh if configure do not exist yet.
Getting help:
when you find you need help, you can check out one of the two
lxc mailing list archives and register if interested:
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxc-devel
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxc-users
Portability:
lxc is still in development, so the command syntax and the API can
change. The version 1.0.0 will be the frozen version.
lxc is developed and tested on Linux since kernel mainline version 2.6.27
(without network) and 2.6.29 with network isolation.
It's compiled with gcc, and should work on most architectures as long as the
required kernel features are available. This includes (but isn't limited to):
i686, x86_64, ppc, ppc64, S390, armel and armhf.

Seccomp with LXC
----------------
To restrict a container with seccomp, you must specify a profile which is
basically a whitelist of system calls it may execute. In the container
config file, add a line like
lxc.seccomp = /var/lib/lxc/q1/seccomp.full
I created a usable (but basically worthless) seccomp.full file using
cat > seccomp.full << EOF
1
whitelist
EOF
for i in `seq 0 300`; do
echo $i >> seccomp.full
done
for i in `seq 1024 1079`; do
echo $i >> seccomp.full
done
