[libvirt] lxc: shutdown $domain broken in libvirt 1.2.3

We recently ran into libvirt lxc shutdown failing because of mount namespaces not being available: # virsh -c lxc:/// start test01 Domain test01 started # virsh -c lxc:/// list Id Name State ---------------------------------------------------- 9336 test01 running # virsh -c lxc:/// shutdown test01 error: Failed to shutdown domain test01 error: Mount namespaces are not available on this platform: Function not implemented /var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log: 2014-09-03 15:50:50.682+0000: 3030: error : virProcessRunInMountNamespace:999 : Mount namespaces are not available on this platform: Function not implemented We're running Debian wheezy with stock libc6 2.13-38, a custom 3.12.15 kernel (with namespace support) and libvirt 1.2.3. The patch in this previous thread fixes shutdown for us and we'd like to see it merged upstream: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-May/msg00175.html Thanks, Steve
