Bug Description

Cgroup namespaces are a new kernel feature which allows virtualizing a container's /proc/self/cgroups and the root of future cgroupfs mounts, to make the container appear as though it is in the / cgroup. This is one of the pieces needed to be able to run, for instance, docker in a lxd container.

Cgroup namespaces are implemented by a patchset which is currently in linux-next. A patchset ported to the master-next branch of the xenial kernel tree is at http://people.canonical.com/~serge/patches.v2/

Thank you.
