The current workflow is to submit patches to the ML, then people will comment on it and eventually Serge or I will give a final Ack (or Nack) and push (or not) to the staging branch. I then send pull requests to Daniel whenever we need a milestone to be released, at that point he pulls from the staging branch into the sourceforge branch and after a quick review, tags the milestone. As we've now started working on 1.0 and I'm planning the final release for February 2014, the next milestone will be 1.0~alpha1 and will likely happen in July/August depending on the amount of changes we land till then. >> Keep in mind that CCing people is what caused that mess to start with >> (that and you not marking the second submit as "v2" which would have >> made it trivial to detect). > > A mailer with proper date and thread-support would also have helped. ;-) > If it helps you maintaining lxc, I can use vX in future. > But please CC me always if you encounter issues caused by one of my patches. > I get a gazillion mail per day, being CC'ed helps a lot to sort the > most important mail out... > >> >>> -- >>> Thanks, >>> //richard >>> >> >> >> -- >> Stéphane Graber >> Ubuntu developer >> http://www.ubuntu.com >> >> >> -- >> Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced >> analytics on semi-structured data.

[lxc-devel] namespaces and lxc
Hello, Question about namespaces and lxc: I see that there is a tool named lxc-unshare, which is (according to https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/lxc.html) for testing and in fact calls the clone() syscall (via lxc_clone()) and not via the unshare() syscall. While looking in the code for namespaces usage, I saw that in lxc_attach_to_ns() there is a call to setns(). But I am not sure as to whether this is used. Usage of cgroups in lxc is known. Regarding namesapces: does lxc support all six namesapaces ? are there examples of *.conf file/links for using namespaces ? is there support for user namespace ?

All namespaces are used. uts, pid, ipc and mounts are always unshared. netns is not unshared if you don't specify any 'lxc.network.type' in your .conf. user is not unshared if you don't list any lxc.id_map entries. Both are described in the lxc.conf(5) man page. > is there support for user > namespace ? Very basic support - for creating a mapped user namespace when starting as the root user - is there. More advanced support for user namespace is in the works. In particular we want unprivileged users to be able to create and start containers in user namespaces, but there is work left to be done. http://s3hh.wordpress.com/2012/10/31/full-ubuntu-container-confined-in-a-user-namespace/ http://s3hh.wordpress.com/2013/03/07/experimenting-with-user-namespaces/ http://s3hh.wordpress.com/2013/02/12/user-namespaces-lxc-meeting/ The last link in particular leads to some discussion of where we want to go and what's left to do. -serge -- Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
