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.

longs. Thi sensures appropriate alignment for architectures
that require it, and also allows us to naturally support up
to 4096 event channels per 64-bit guest.
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.

add_memory_region(0, PFN_PHYS(max_pfn), E820_RAM);
Since max_pfn is (rightly) an unsigned long, we overflow for the current
definition of PFN_PHYS. Attached is my preferred solution as it will
hopefully avoid similar situations that may come up in the future.

it is more easily accessible by kernels.

drivers better follow the Linux driver model. Changes include:
* Rename xenbus_register functions to more closely match what's used
with other buses. Adjust callers
* There's no need to wait for the first vbd of vif and do a timeout if
they fail, device probing is async
* Add sysfs attributes for examining type and nodename
* Set device of gendisk so /sys/block/foo/device points to the right
place
* Set device of net_device so that /sys/class/net/foo/device points to
the right place

tools. /dev/xen/evtchn is now used by daemons to connect to
remote domains: the advantage is that the local ports are garbage
collected automatically if the daemon dies. xen no longer
constructs end-to-end event-channel port pairs -- it allocates an
unbound port in new domU and writes that port to xenstore. It is
then picked up by teh appropriate daemon which does interdomain bind
via /dev/xen/evtchn.

Make xenstored use tdb, transactions can soft-fail (EAGAIN)
Transactions no longer take root dir, no longer lock & block: commit can fail spuriously with EAGAIN, not ETIMEDOUT.
Speeds up transactions by over 1000 times, should be NFS safe.
New program: xs_tdb_dump to dump raw TDB contents.
Don't do failure testing: we are no longer robust against all ENOMEM 8(
Introduce "struct node" which contains perms, children and data.
Make struct xs_permissions unpadded, so we can write to tdb w/o valgrind complaints.
Gently modify TDB to use talloc, not do alloc on tdb_delete.
Fix up transaction users for new semantics.
Don't need a transaction around a single read in xen/i386/kernel/smpboot.c.
Python: transaction_start() returns True/False rather than raising exception on EAGAIN.
Fix usage comment on xs_transaction_end().
Include stdarg to xs_tdb_dump so it compiles.
