been tested (perhaps since the un-Twisting?). This particular problem
was that one function was being called with self instead of the right
argument and another function's return value was being used when it
didn't actually return anything.
This patch also improves the error handling a bit by making sure we
don't thrown an exception on a log statement with a None value. In
general, one should always use the % formatter instead of concatination
for strings in Python (even though this is not what this patch does).

Without this, xend will not spawn a new device model process after the reboot.

This patch remembers the device model pid across xend restarts and
avoids creating duplicate device model processes.
Also, device models don't inherit socket fds from xend (which are closed
on exec now), which used to prevent xend restarting.

If we define "vif" in the config file, image.py will raise error "vmx:
missing vbd configuration". The reason is "vif" is dealt with as a "vbd"
device.
This patch fixes this issue by dealing with "vbd" and "vif " separately,
removing "macaddr" arg and parsing mac address from "vif" instead.
Also, the vbd doesn't have to be a file anymore, but can be a physical
disk partition.

It does a number of things:
* It implements the standardized options proposed via my RFC for xm
* It restructures the calling of these functions to be function pointers out
of a dictionary, instead of subclasses found through inspection
* It consolidates all help info, making it easier to see that the help
screen looks consistent across commands. (Per command help isn't yet in
this patch just global help)
* It moves object importing into the functions that require them only,
allowing commands like "xm help" to be runable as non root
* It adds command aliasing to provide backwards compatibility with many
commands (i.e. xm balloon)
* It provides more useful error messages is most fail cases
* It implements a short help by default (which takes < 24 screen lines) as
requested by Mark W at OLS
* It attempts to trap more exceptions than before and provide useful errors
based on them (this requires more testing)
This patch makes no changes to any other elements of xen/xm, and works with
all other objects and libraries as is.

1. Converts the shutdown driver and xend to use the store instead of
control messages,
2. Includes Anthony's xenstore notification code, and
3. Changes xend so that sysrq's are no longer sent as "special case"
shutdown messages. Store keys are cheap, so making the sysrq
delivery less obscure is good.
I think I have made all of the appropriate modifications to Xend, but
it is complex, so I may have missed something. Comments are welcome.

three patches to fix a problem with Xend starting consoled. consoled
depends on xenstored to be running and xenstored is started on demand in
Xend. The patches change xenstored to manage its own pidfile, and have
xend start actually start up xenstored.
and changes xm to simply exec /usr/libexec/xen/xc_console.
I've done a pretty good amount of testing and this seems to clear up all
of the Xend console issues in bugzilla.
This is a pretty big change to Xend though with a lot of deleted code so
I'd appreciate if people more familiar with the Xend codebase could look
through it critically.
In addition to the patch, the following files are no longer used:
tools/python/xen/util/console_client.py
tools/python/xen/xend/XendConsole.py
tools/python/xen/xend/server/SrvConsole.py

Note: Because there is no way to set a watch on a non-existent key,
this patch includes a workaround to account for the fact that dom0's
store keys are not initialized by the tools before it boots.

- Enforce the number of CPUs dom0 will take. See the new variable
"dom0-cpus" in xend-config.sxp (you will want to set this variable to
1 on SMP systems)
- Balloon out dom0 memory when creating domU, if there is not enough
free memory. The lowest level we will balloon out is configured via
the new variable "dom0-min-mem" in xend-config.sxp
I still have a doubt: where to put the code to enforce dom0-cpus. At
the moment I put it into
python/xen/xend/server/SrvDaemon.py, and hopefully that is resonable
enough. Any comment?

When a dom runs on multiple physical cpus, the CPU field doesn't have
much meaning. The suggested fix was to replace the value with '-'.
