From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange(a)redhat.com>
If no <interface> elements are included in an LXC guest XML
description, then the LXC guest will just see the host's
network interfaces. It is desirable to be able to hide the
host interfaces, without having to define any guest interfaces.
This patch introduces a new feature flag <privnet/> to allow
forcing of a private network namespace for LXC. In the future
I also anticipate that we will add <privuser/> to force a
private user ID namespace.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Add support
for <privnet/> feature. Auto-set <privnet> if any <interface>
devices are defined
* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Honour request for private network
namespace
NB: this was ACKed way back in January, but I forgot to push
it then. Pushing it now - this re-post is just to remind folks
where it came from
