Added autotools magic to replace custom check scripts. The previous
checks have been ported to autoconf, and some additional ones have
been added (plus the suggestions from running autoscan). Two files are
created as a result from executing configure script, config/Tools.mk
and config.h.
conf/Tools.mk is included by tools/Rules.mk, and contains most of the
options previously defined in .config, that can now be set passing
parameters or defining environment variables when executing configure
script.
config.h is only used by libxl/xl to detect yajl_version.h.
[ tools/config.sub and config.guess copied from
autotools-dev 20100122.1 from Debian squeeze i386,
which is GPLv2.
tools/configure generated using the included ./autogen.sh
which ran autoconf 2.67-2 from Debian squeeze i386. autoconf
is GPLv3+ but has a special exception for the autoconf output;
this exception applies to us and exempts us from complying
with GPLv3+ for configure, which is good as Xen is GPL2 only.

Move the sxp producing code off into a separate file. It is supported
for legacy reasons and needn't be updated other than the improve
compatibility with xm.
libxl_domain_config is not currently generated by the IDL (adding the
necessary support for Array types is on my to do list) so hand code
the json generation function for now.
Since this rather directly exposes a libxl data structure it's not
clear what sort of forward compatibility guarantees we can
make. However it seems like it should be as stable as libxl's own API
(which we are looking to stabilise)

specific types.
In 23887:a543e10211f7 libxl.idl became libxl_types.idl (to allow for

The latter is GPL which makes the whole of mini-os GPL rather than BSD
as intended. In tree users are all GPL or GPL-compatible but we should
fix this so that mini-os is BSD. Do so by using the same BSD
sys/queue.h as we use in libxl.
Tested with the builtin mini-os test app and qemu stubdomain, both of which
appear to still function as expected.
Move tools/libxl/external and the associated sed script to
tools/include/xen-external to allow more sensible access from mini-os.
Also add s/NULL/0/ in the sed script due to NULL not always being
defined in stubdom code when mini-os/wait.h is included.
As well as the obvious ABI changes there are a few API updates
associated with the change:
- struct rw_semaphore.wait_list is unused
- remove_waiter needs to take the wait_queue_head
The latter requires a qemu update, so there is also a QEMU_TAG
update in this changeset.
I sprinkled some extra-emacs local variables around the files I edited
which didn't have them.
I think this should be backported to the stable branches since
external users of mini-os may have been mislead into thinking they
could safely link mini-os against GPL-incompatible code.

GCC and C99 allow declarations to be mixed with code. This is a good
idea because:
* It allows variables to be more often initialised as they are
declared, thus reducing the occurrence of uninitialised variable
errors.
* Certain alloca-like constructs (arrays allocated at runtime on the
stack) can more often be written without a spurious { } block.
Such blocks are confusing to read.
* It makes it easier to write and use macros which declare and
initialise formulaic variables and do other function setup code,
because there is no need to worry that such macros might be
incompatible with each other or have strict ordering constraints.

We would like some linked list macros which are (a) well known to be

We also provide some simple perlery to arrange to add the libxl_

_libxl_list.h in our public header file without clashing with anyone
else who is also using another version of queue.h.

PREPEND_LIB: add libraries to the search path before xen

PREPEND_INCLUDES: add headers to the search path before xen

APPEND_LIB: add libraries to the search path at the end
(after all xen installation folders have been added).
APPEND_INCLUDES: add libraries to the search path at the end

Two functions are provided. TYPE_gen_json exposes an interface which is
compatible with the YAGL generator infrastructure. TYPE_to_string uses this to
produce a pretty printed string.
The TYPE_gen_json functions are defined in a new header libxl_json.h which is
not exposed via libxl.h due to the use of YAGL datatypes to avoid poluting the
namespace us libxl users which don't use the library themselves. If a libxl
user is interested in integrating at the YAGL level then it should #include
this file itself.

In particular if binary A uses libB and libB uses libC entirely
internally then A does not need to link against libC only libB.
However when linking binary A the linker does need to have visibility
of the libraries which libB links against (libC in this example). For
out of tree uses this is achieved without fuss due because the
libraries are installed in a standard path. However in the case of
in-tree users the linker needs a hint in the form of the -rpath-link
option. Therefore a new class of build variable, $(SHLIB_FOO), is
introduced which includes the linker options needed to link against a
library which uses libFOO. The intention is that $(LDLIBS_bar) will
include the $(SHLIB_foo)s which it uses where necessary rather
requiring that users are aware of this.
For the python extensions this change appears particularly large since
previously each of python bindings were linked against the union of
all possible libraries used by all bindings instead of just what they
individually needed.
This change removes a dependency on libdl.so from nearly everything
in the system, only libxenctrl actually uses it.
In the context of xl/libxl the intention of libxl is to remove any
need for a user of libxl to know about libxenstore or libxenctrl,
however in the current build it is xl which links against those
libraries rather than libxl (which only links against libc). After
this change libxl correctly depends on the libraries it uses and xl
does not depend on libraries which it is not support to be required to
know about. Note that xl does depend on libxenctrl.so since it uses
xtl_* directly.

Building in a tree with read-only source files failed because the flex/
bison generated files are left in place.
All of the source files (instead of all of the object files) were
depending on libxl.h (in particular forcing the needless re-generation
of the flex/bison generated files).
For _libxl_types.[ch] a single non-pattern rule was used. For non-
pattern rules with multiple targets, other than for pattern ones, the
body gets executed once for each target, causing problems when building
with -j<n>, <n> >= 2. Convert this rule to a pattern one.
The flex/bison generated headers pointlessly depended on the
corresponding source files. Use multiple-target pattern rules instead.
It would also have been nice if the minimal flex/bison versions needed
to successfully build libxl were documented: neither flex 2.5.31 nor
bison 2.1 (as found e.g. on SLE10) is sufficient.

I chose the name "_destroy" rather than "_free" because the destructor
functions will free only the members of a type recursively but will
not free the actual type structure itself. The allocation of the type
is typically done by the caller and may not be a single allocation,
e.g. lists/arrays of types or embedded in other structures etc.
The exceptions to this rule are libxl_string_list_destroy and
libxl_key_value_list_destroy but I'm not 100% convinced they are
exceptions (since they are kind-of opaque) and I couldn't see a
cleanerway to express this concept. I have made a best effort attempt
to implement these functions sanely but since as far as I can tell
nothing in the current code base ever sets
libxl_domain_create_info.{xsdata,platformdata} I'm flying somewhat
blind.

The libxl interface types are represented by a simple python data
structure (which could be parsed from a bespoke language in the
future).
This will allow the autogeneration of functions to free the component
members of the libxl types. In the future it may also enable auto
generation of type marshalling code for language bindings.
The generated file should be identical to before with the exception of
the "DO NOT EDIT" header.
It was unfortunately necessary to add explcit an dependency on
_libxl_types.h (indirectly via libxl.h) to all C files since the
autogenerated dependencies are not available in time.
