Public bug reported:

Host:
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=15.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=wily
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 15.10"

lxc version: 1.1.4-0ubuntu1

In a LXC container running Ubuntu 15.10, install upstart-sysv to replace
systemd. Using FUSE then causes almost all processes in the container to
be killed.

The following steps reproduce the problem using sshfs:

# create a wily container and attach to it
sudo lxc-create -t download -n wily -- -d ubuntu -r wily -a amd64
sudo lxc-start -n wily
sudo lxc-attach -n wily

# inside the container, install upstart-sysv and reboot
apt-get update && apt-get -y install upstart-sysv
reboot

# on the host, reattach to the container
sudo lxc-attach -n wily

# back in the container, install ssh and sshfs
apt-get -y install openssh-server sshfs

# create an ssh key pair in /root/.ssh
ssh-keygen

# set up passwordless ssh
mkdir ~ubuntu/.ssh
cat /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~ubuntu/.ssh/authorized_keys
eval $(ssh-agent)
ssh-add /root/.ssh/id_rsa

# take a note of the running processes and their PIDs
ps axjf

# run sshfs
mkdir /fuse
sshfs ubuntu@localhost:/ /fuse

# we are kicked out of the container
# run ps again in the container
sudo lxc-attach -n wily -- ps axjf

# a whole bunch of processes are now gone. the getty processes now have
new PIDs, indicating they have been restarted.


Other debugging performed:
- On a 14.10 host with lxc version 1.1.0~alpha2-0ubuntu3.3, the problem does 
not occur. FUSE works fine.
- On the same 14.10 host with lxc upgraded to 1.1.5-0ubuntu3~ubuntu14.04.1, the 
problem occurs.
- On a 15.10 host, when running a wily container without upstart, the problem 
does not occur.
- On a 15.10 host, when running a trusty container, the problem does not occur.
- The problem can't be reproduced outside a container (15.10 host, install 
upstart-sysv, then use FUSE)
