Wed May 9 15:49:40 UTC 2012
From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange at redhat.com>
Introduce a new syntax for filesystems to allow use of a RAM
filesystem
<filesystem type='ram'>
<source usage='1024'/>
<target dir='/mnt'/>
</filesystem>
The usasge is in KB to limit consumption of host memory.
* docs/formatdomain.html.in: Document new syntax
* docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng: Add new attributes
* src/conf/domain_conf.c: Parsing/formatting of RAM filesystems
* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Mounting of RAM filesystems
