Hi there!
Indeed we're developing Vasum to provide "graphical" Linux containers for Tizen (or any other Linux distribution).
It has a rich C/Dbus API and uses LXC under the hood.

The problem with Docker, LXD, libvirt is that they concentrate on the server use case. So as long as you are OK with that I guess you can use them without a problem. All needed kernel features are switched on.

On Tizen we have "apps" that have "permissions" enforced by Cynara. This complicates the installation process. - Security Manager had to integrate with Vasum (master-slave mode) to enable app installation inside containers. - "Smack namespaces" are pending integration to the kernel. Every container will have a separate label mapping.


Currently we're working on:
- replacing LXC with our lxcpp library
- integrating with Wayland
- conforming to the Open Container Initiative

Bob,

initial investigation on use of Name spaces has been done by Samsung.
It is based on lxc.

What support (if any) is missing for Tizen 2.4 and Tizen 3.0 to be able to support LXC or even Docker?

I know that there have been efforts in this direction in the past. Just wondering about the current status and any plans/roadmap to support Linux containers?

Cheers,
Bob Summerwill
