be enabled and disabled dynamically while the system is running. The
existing DOM0_TBUFCONTROL hypercall is used, and three new operations
have been added: enable, disable, and set_size. This is to address
concerns that use of the trace buffers impacts system performance.
The initial value of opt_tbuf_size is set to zero, so that trace
buffers remain disabled by default. They can be enabled as they used
to be, by adding tbuf_size= to the xen command line at boot time. They
can also be turned on and off any time when the system is running. The
size of the trace buffer allocation can also be changed dynamically
while the system is running. The trace buffers may be completely
deallocated by setting the size to zero. No change in buffer size can
be done while tracing is enabled;
Other Changes made:
- Update the constants in tools/xentrace/formats to match those in
public/trace.h
- libxc functions for enable/disable, get/set size
Still left to do:
- remove all ifdef's for trace buffers and the 'trace' build option
- xm command to do enable/disable trace buffers and get/set size

Also removed some ugly tailing space.

recreation semantics.
Remove the unpause at the end of xc_linux_restore, and move it to
XendDomainInfo. This is necessary because xenstored now allocates the domain
path when the domain is introduced, which means that the new domain cannot
start running until that introduce is performed and the new devices
configured.
Give restore a separate completion phase in which domain details are stored.
This is required because the domain path is no longer available until after
the introduceDomain call.
TODO: Split the domain introduction into two so that the domain path is
available earlier. At the moment, the domain <-> store channel details are
passed in to xenstored when the domain is introduced, but in the case of
restore it is necessary to wait until the restore is completed before the
channel MFN is available.
Change the interface between XendDomainInfo and XendCheckpoint/image to not
have hideous callbacks through setConsoleRef and setStoreRef. Instead,
image.createImage explicitly returns those values, and XendCheckpoint passes
them through to completeRestore.
Move the purging of the domain path corresponding to a new domain from Xend
to xenstored, since xenstored is now in charge of this path. With the domain
path creation moved to xenstored, Xend cannot remove the path, because watches
may have fired on it already.
Fix the printf statement in xenstored in verbose mode that details the
messages being written. This statement was printing the buffer using %s, but
this buffer has an explicit length field, so we were seeing garbage after the
correct details.

that loop completely -- the xc_init_store, initDomainStore calls can all go.
Have xenstored understand where the local domain information goes. Xend no
longer has to generate a path and pass it to xenstored through
xs_introduce_domain -- we just allow xenstored to generate the path, and then
call GetDomainPath later. There is still some work required to tidy this up.
Change the uuid module to generate uuids as lists of bytes, not in the
stringified form. Added a unit test for that module.
Change the semantics of Xend restart, relying on these changes to the
xenstored semantics and earlier changes to add an opaque handle to the
hypervisor's domain-specific data block. The semantics are now clearer, as
Xend can validate whether the details in the store match the current live
domain.
Added a usage statement to xenstored.

Moved 'n_vcpu' field from shared_info to start_info. Really it
ought to disappear altogether as the info can be derived from
xenstore.
Fix a weird bug in XendDomainInfo where 'vcpus' information for
a domain defaults to floating point value 1.0 rather than integer
1. This looks like a Python bug to me, but in any case it is
'fixed' by explicitly converting the default value to an integer.
