Details

Description:

Just before v3.0.0 release, PAM module pam_cgfs was moved from lxcfs to lxc:
https://github.com/lxc/lxc/pull/2148
https://github.com/lxc/lxcfs/pull/233

The module can be built by including
`--enable-pam` and `--with-pamdir=/usr/lib/security`
arguments for the configure script, and adding PAM as a package dependency.

Module is useful for deploying unprivileged containers. When included in `/etc/pam.d/system-login` it makes specified controllers in the cgroup hierarchy writable by unprivileged user. Note that the inclusion should remain optional.

Another option is to package the PAM module separately.

Additional info:
* lxc 1:3.0.0-1
