Can configfs for lio can handle multiple containers making changes
concurrently and independently?

Not to my knowledge. Neither sysfs nor configfs are namespace aware.

Should be doable for configfs, as this is a stand-along 'filesystem' 
which could be made namespace-aware.

The implications of this, however, will be challenging as quite some 
internal structures using configfs are currently programmed for a
single user.

Still, interesting project, and one should be looking into it.

Cheers,

Hannes
