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.

Hi, I'm seeing an issue with udev and libvirt-lxc. Libvirt-lxc creates /dev/ptmx as a symlink to /dev/pts/ptmx. When udev starts up, it checks the device type, sees ptmx is 'not right', and replaces it with a 'proper' ptmx. In lxc, /dev/ptmx is bind-mounted from /dev/pts/ptmx instead of being symlinked, so udev sees the right device type and leaves it alone. A patch like the following seems to work for me. Would there be any objections to this? >From 4c5035de52de7e06a0de9c5d0bab8c87a806cba7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ubuntu <ubuntu@domU-12-31-39-14-F0-B3.compute-1.internal> Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 18:15:54 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/1] make ptmx a bind mount rather than symlink udev on some systems checks the device type of /dev/ptmx, and replaces it if not as expected. The symlink created by libvirt-lxc therefore gets replaced. By creating it as a bind mount, the device type is correct and udev leaves it alone.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
