[pve-devel] [PATCH v2 container 1/2] Add module for reading state changes from monitor socket

[Fabian Ebner]

Will be used to monitor state changes on container startup.

New in v2.

I hard-coded the name of the abstract UNIX socket instead of
trying to re-implement lxc/monitor.c's lxc_monitor_sock_name
function. For us, is it true that the lxcpath is always '/varl/lib/lxc'?
Otherwise this won't always work.
