With cgroup v1 I'm seeing LXC container startup failures:
$ sudo virt-install --connect lxc:/// --name test-container --memory 128
--boot init=/bin/sh
Starting install...
ERROR error from service:
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.machine1.NoMachineForPID: PID 2145047 does
not belong to any known machine
libvirt 7.0.0 works but 7.1.0+ does not. The root error seems to predate
that, showing up in syslog, but commit 9c1693eff made it fatal:
commit 9c1693eff427661616ce1bd2795688f87288a412

vircgroup: use DBus call to systemd for some APIs
The error comes from virSystemdGetMachineByPID. The PID that shows up in
the above error message does not match the leader PID as reported by
machinectl.
This change fixes the error. Things seem to continue to work with
cgroupsv2 after this change.

Libvirt API for virtualization
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
