lxcfs

Introduction

FUSE filesystem for LXC, offering the following features:

• a cgroupfs compatible view for unprivileged containers
• a set of cgroup-aware files:
• cpuinfo
• meminfo
• stat
• uptime

Usage

The recommended command to run lxcfs is:

sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/lxcfs
sudo lxcfs -s -f -o allow_other /var/lib/lxcfs

• -s is required to turn off multi-threading as libnih-dbus isn't thread safe.
• -f is to keep lxcfs running in the foreground
• -o allow_other is required to have non-root user be able to access the filesystem
• -d can also be passed in order to debug lxcfs

In order to use lxcfs with systemd-based containers, you can either use LXC 1.1 in which case it should work automatically, or otherwise, copy the lxc.mount.hook file (once built) from this tree to /usr/share/lxc/hooks/lxcfs, make sure it is executable, then add the following two lines to your container configuration:

autodev = 1
kmsg = 0
include = /usr/share/lxcfs/00-lxc.conf
