    fix closed fd when they are inherited
    
    This patch fix a problem with the commit d983b93c3ad860fa22ef760ae27a944d6000e35a
    When the lxc daemonize, it closes fd 0, 1 and 2. But these ones are coming from
    inherited fd and they are already in the inherited list of fd. When lxc creates
    some file descriptors, they have the number of the previous inherited file
    descriptor, so they are closed when we close all the inherited file descriptors.
    
    In order to fix that, the lxc_close_inherited_fd function has been implemented
    to close an inherited fd and remove it from the list.

    Remove the a previous cgroup
    
    As a previous run may have created a cgroup but died unexpectedly,
    the cgroup can be still there when we try to launch the container
    again with the same name. This patch removes the directory if it is
    present, if this one is not owned by caller or it is in use (that should
    not happen), the rmdir will fail with the corresponding errno.

    detect a cgroup named 'lxc'
    
    This patch makes lxc to detect a specific cgroup dedicated to lxc
    which is mounted with the lxc name. That allows to mount different
    cgroup in different places with different options (aka subsystems)
    and assign one to be used by lxc. If no such mount point is found,
    the first cgroup mount point is used.

    lxc-execute or lxc-start to fail if cgroup not mounted
    
    Before this patch a container was able to be started
    without mounted cgroup. (only a warning was logged)
    But the lxc-ps is using the /proc/<pid>/cgroup to identify
    the lxc container in which pid is running.
    So to be consistent between all lxc command I force an error
    if cgroup is not mounted at time of lxc-execute or lxc-start.

    Remove install-exec-local rule
    
    Hi Daniel and all,
    
    I am trying to run LXC on the CentOS 5.3 and the Linux kernel 2.6.30.
    I found a problem with running the rpmbuild command.  The error message
    is shown below:
    
    $ rpmbuild -bb lxc.spec

    lxc-fedora fixes
    
    Howdy,
    
    I was playing around with LXC containers this past weekend, and
    noticed a couple of issues with the lxc-fedora script:
    
    #1: Line 96 should be ${ROOTFS}/etc/sysconfig/network instead of
    ${ROOTFS}/sysconfig/network
    
    #2 Line 249 contains a reference to $PKG, which isn't used in the
    program. I adjusted the variable to point to the correct package, and
    use this in the calls to yumdownloader:
    
        PKG="${DISTRO}-release.noarch.rpm"
                       .....
        yumdownloader --destdir="${CACHE}/partial" "${PKG}"
    
    #3 The $CACHE/partial path is escaped unnecessarily:
    
       RPM="rpm --root \"${CACHE}/partial\""
    
    #4 The program assumes yumdownloader will work, which isn't always the
    case. I added an if statement to check the return code:
    
    
       echo "Downloading distribution release file ${PKG}"
       yumdownloader --destdir="${CACHE}/partial" "${PKG}"
       RESULT=$?
    
       if [ "${RESULT}" != "0" ]; then
           echo "Enable to download the distribution release file"
           exit 1
       fi
    
    #5 The package name passed to yumdownloader is incorrect:
    
       yumdownloader --destdir="${CACHE}/partial" "${DISTRO}-release.noarch.rpm"
    
       On Fedora 10 and 11, this evaluates to:
    
       fedora-release.noarch.rpm
    
       When we need it to evaluate to:
    
       fedora-{RELEASE_VER}.release.noarch
    
       This is fixed in the PKG variable listed above.
    
    A patch that addresses these issues is attached.
    
    Thanks,
    - Ryan

    unshare the utsname in all the cases
    
    The current code implies we have to define a utsname in order
    to unshare it. This problematic in case of system container because
    we want them to set their hostname. As the utsname namespace is
    a COW, we can safely unshare it in all the cases.
