lxc: don't try to hide parent cgroups inside container
On the host when we start a container, it will be placed in a cgroup path of /machine.slice/machine-lxc\x2ddemo.scope under /sys/fs/cgroup/* Inside the containers' namespace we need to setup /sys/fs/cgroup mounts, and currently will bind mount /machine.slice/machine-lxc\x2ddemo.scope on the host to appear as / in the container. While this may sound nice, it confuses applications dealing with cgroups, because /proc/$PID/cgroup now does not match the directory in /sys/fs/cgroup This particularly causes problems for systems and will make it create repeated path components in the cgroup for apps run in the container eg /machine.slice/machine-lxc\x2ddemo.scope/machine.slice/machine-lxc\x2ddemo.scope/user.slice/user-0.slice/session-61.scope This also causes any systemd service that uses sd-notify to fail to start, because when systemd receives the notification it won't be able to identify the corresponding unit it came from. In particular this break rabbitmq-server startup Future kernels will provide proper cgroup namespacing which will handle this problem, but until that time we should not try to play games with hiding parent cgroups.

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description
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.
