Hi,

To further the bug report, I installed fedora 20, tried the container again, it fails with not understanding how to deal with sys or proc mount points, libvirt version was too low. I then updated the system to latest virt repo which is the same version number as debian's 1.2.9. tried again, fails in the same way as it does on debian, so thats good / bad news, at least we are consistent!

I have now installed a debian system at jessie level with kernel 3.14.2 (from d-i usb install), got my test container working with idmap: good result!

Upgraded all packages to sid, container still starts: good result!

Updated to linux-image-amd64 (brings in linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64 == 3.16.7 , no idea why the kernel team has changed their package names recently), container fails to start.

Looking back at the fedora installation, it too is a 3.16 kernel. I am rather surprised the fedora folks haven't noticed, I doubt fedora 21 will work with idmap libvirt_lxc either.

I posted on libvir mailing list [1] about possible issues with kernel / libvirt needing to be synced for mounting proc, but nobody replied.

So in conclusion, seems the kernel did break somewhere after 3.14.2. I will try later kernels but fishing in the dark as to where to look for the relevant changes, git bisect is a little beyond me.

Do I open a bug with the kernel or should this bug just be re-assigned ?

Regards,

Adrian
