[Bug 1124526] [NEW] potential race in commands.c / lxc-info

[Serge Hallyn]

Public bug reported:

There have been reports that two racing lxc-infos can result in one of
the lxc-infos being hung.  I've tried to reproduce with the script below
- so far with no success, but that doesn't mean the race isn't real.

#!/bin/sh

if [ $(id -u) -ne 0 ]; then
	echo "run as root"
	exit 1
fi

if [ "x$1" = "x" ]; then
	echo "give name of container to play with as arg 1"
	exit 1
fi

(lxc-start -n $1 -d; lxc-info -n $1) &
(lxc-stop -n $1; lxc-info -n $1)

** Affects: lxc (Ubuntu)
