Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] virt-login-shell joins users into lxc container.

From: Dan Walsh <dwalsh(a)redhat.com&gt; Openshift wants to have their gears stuck into a container when they login to the system. virt-login-shell will join a running gear with the username of the person running it, or attempt to start the container if it is not running. (Currently containers do not exist if they are not running, so I can not test this feature. But the code is there). This tool needs to be setuid since joining a container (nsjoin) requires privs. The root user is not allowed to execute this command. When this tool is run by a normal user it will only join the "users" container. Only users who are listed as valid_users in /etc/libvirt/virt-login-shell.conf are allowed to join containers using this tool. By default no users are allowed. --- .gitignore | 1 + libvirt.spec.in | 3 + mingw-libvirt.spec.in | 5 + po/POTFILES.in | 1 + src/libvirt_private.syms | 1 + src/util/virutil.c | 7 + src/util/virutil.h | 1 + tools/Makefile.am | 30 ++++- tools/virt-login-shell.c | 312 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ tools/virt-login-shell.conf | 24 ++++ tools/virt-login-shell.pod | 62 +++++++++ 11 files changed, 446 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 tools/virt-login-shell.c create mode 100755 tools/virt-login-shell.conf create mode 100644 tools/virt-login-shell.pod
