Hi guys,


Hi and sorry for not replying earlier.

I marked this series as RFC to discuss some points. I'm interested in
enhancing this specific part of LXC. So, some questions that I would
like to hear as a feedback from community:
1. I decided to use a tar to compress all CRIU img files into a single
file. Any other suggestions?
2. If no is the answer to question above, is there a consensus on
preferring to use command line calls or libraries? I would like to use
libtar for instance. I personally think that this approach is ugly.
Not sure if I'm able to do that. The same for CRIU.

I remember that for CRIU, back when we were trying to do that, the issue
was that the commands were not atomic, did not properly report error
messages and maybe something more along the lines.  Either there was no
library interface or it was not MT-safe, basically there were couple of
issues like that which we were not able to deal with.

I do not really remember all the details.  Maybe Michal does as I think
he suggested the idea back then.  I Cc'd him.  In the worst scenario we
will need to figure this all out again ;)
