at http://www.Leidinger.net/FreeBSD/current-patches/jail.diff I have some
changes which should apply to RELENG_7(_0) and HEAD which allow access to
/dev/io (if configured appropriately, see the included man-page change).
This is needed to run a X server in a jail. You may also need to load
manually (or via the loader) the kernel module which is normally loaded by
the X server (in my case (a Radeon card) this means to have
radeon_load="YES" in loader.conf). AFAIR the X server works without this,
but probably without some acceleration. I haven't tested any 3D stuff.
Thank you very much for providing your work in this area. I would
really like to test your patch, but I currently have very little spare
time left by my job. So I will only cheer you up :).
Thanks. :)
You also need to setup /etc/devfs.rules (this is a copy of my one, it
contains more than is needed to run the X server, so you can trim this if
you want):

[...]
---snip---
You also need to make sure those rules are applied to your jail
(jail_<jailname>_devfs_ruleset="devfsrules_jail_desktop").
Do you plan to document this else where, maybe in the jail chapter of
the handbook? Otherwise I will merely bookmark your mail.
What you need or not depends upon your usage scenario. I don't think
this belongs into the man page. If I document this in the handbook or
not, I haven't thought about (somehow I think I will not have the time
to do it). If someone takes my mail (after the code is committed),
adds some sentences and wants to commit this into the handbook, I
happily review the text.
Bye,
Alexander.
