The glibc ones cannot handle ptys opened in a devpts not mounted at

Changelog:
   Oct 17: Per Eli Qiao, use VIR_ALLOC_N when appropriate, make
           sure to check return values, and follow coding style
	  convention.
	  Change lxcGetTtyGid() to return -1 on error, otherwise
	  return gid in passed-in argument.

Hmm. This gets called once per lxc guest, instead of once per libvirtd process, even though the gid won't change in the meantime.

Furthermore, we have _already_ hardcoded this to 5, based on the options we gave to mount("devpts") - either we need to fix that mount call (better), or we can skip this function altogether (assuming that our hard-coding of 5 is correct, there's no need to requery it, although that does sound like a worse solution). For that matter, the whole point of the mount("devpts",...",gid=5") designation is that the new pty will be owned by gid 5, without needing to fchown() it. Are there kernels that are new enough to support newinstance mounting, yet old enough to not honor gid=5? That would be the only case where we would have to chown in the first place. But if all kernels new enough to support newinstance mounting correctly honor the gid=5 option, then we don't even have to do chown() calls [but we still have to fix the hard-coding of gid=5 in the mount() option].

+        if (fchmod(*ttymaster, S_IRUSR|S_IWUSR|S_IWGRP)<  0)
+            goto cleanup;

Likewise, I think this fchmod() is useless; the mode=0620 in the mount option should have already set this up.

+        goto cleanup;
+    }

Wasteful.  PATH_MAX is MUCH bigger than we need.

+
+    snprintf(*ttyName, PATH_MAX, "/dev/pts/%d", ptyno);

Instead, I'd just do this as:

virAsprintf(ttyName, "/dev/pts/%d", ptyno);

Also, do we want this to be the name of the pty, _as seen from the guest after the fs pivot is complete_, or do we want this to be the name of the pty, as seen from the host prior to the pivot, in which case it would be some derivative of "%s/dev/pts/%d", root->src, ptyno?
