   2
   3 ## Introduction
   4 FUSE filesystem for LXC, offering the following features:
   5  - a cgroupfs compatible view for unprivileged containers
   6  - a set of cgroup-aware files:
   7    - cpuinfo
   8    - meminfo
   9    - stat
  10    - uptime
  11
  12 ## Usage
  13 The recommended command to run lxcfs is:
  14
  15     sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/lxcfs
  16     sudo lxcfs -s -f -o allow_other /var/lib/lxcfs
  17
  18  - -s is required to turn off multi-threading as libnih-dbus isn't thread safe.
  19  - -f is to keep lxcfs running in the foreground
  20  - -o allow\_other is required to have non-root user be able to access the filesystem
  21  - -d can also be passed in order to debug lxcfs
