Fron c3bd0019c0e on instead of creating the following path for cgroups: /sys/fs/cgroupX/$name.libvirt-$driver we generate rather more verbose one: /sys/fs/cgroupX/$driver-$id-$name.libvirt-$driver where $name is optional and included iff contains allowed chars. See original commit for more reasoning. Now, problem with the original commit is that we are unable to start any LXC domain after it. Because when starting LXC container, the CGroup layout is created by our lxc_controller process and then detected and validated by libvirtd. The validation is done by trying to match detected layout against all the possible patterns for cgroup paths that we've ever had. And the commit in question forgot to update this part of the code. Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@xxxxxxxxxx> --- I am really surprised how long this bug went unnoticed. Is anybody using LXC?
