Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] LXC: create directory /dev/shm automatically

Now we mount /dev as tmpfs and haven't created directory /dev/shm,so the glibc api such as shm_open/sem_open will create files under dir /dev.(since /dev is mounted as tmpfs) Through these api still useable in container,but this cause directory /dev looks a little chaos. This patch create directory /dev/shm automatically,the files created by shm_open/sem_open will stay in this directroy.
