Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 0/7] Series short description

The following patches fix logging for the lxc controller. The lxc
controller makes use of the libvirt logging module, but because it
doesn't re-initialize the logging configuration the messages are
currently going nowhere.
There are a couple of options in fixing this. The lxc controller could
use libvirtd's logging configuration exactly, or it adopt a more
independent mode of logging to the container log file. After talking
with Daniel Veillard a while back, it seemed clear that both behaviors
are desirable. I resolved this by adding a lxc.conf file for the lxc
driver, with a boolean variable to toggle between modes.
This sounds like a good approach - it is definitely useful to be able to
send LXC controller logs to a different place than the daemon logs, not
least to avoid totally mixed-up/corrupt log messages since you won't be
getting synchronization between libvirtd & LXC
