| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 1 LXC is a userspace interface for the Linux kernel containment features. |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 2 Through a powerful API and simple tools, it lets Linux users easily |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 3 create and manage system or application containers. |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 4 |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 5 Current LXC uses the following kernel features to contain processes: |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 6 |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 7 - Kernel namespaces (ipc, uts, mount, pid, network and user) |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 8 - Apparmor and SELinux profiles |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 9 - Seccomp policies |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 10 - Chroots (using pivot_root) |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 11 - Kernel capabilities |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 12 - CGroups (control groups) |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 13 |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 14 LXC containers are often considered as something in the middle between a |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 15 chroot and a full fledged virtual machine. |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 16 The goal of LXC is to create an environment as close as possible to a |
| Hans-G?nter@24868 | 17 standard Linux installation but without the need for a separate kernel. |
