This adds support for channel declarations of the form: channel = [ "name=...,connection=...[,path=...][,backend=...]" ] where 'name' is a label to identify the channel to the frontend. If 'connection = pty' then the channel is connected to a pty in the backend domain If 'connection = socket' then the channel is connected to a Unix domain socket given by 'path = ...' in the backend domain. This patch also adds the command: xl channel-list <domain> which allows the state of channels to be queried. In particular if 'connection=pty' this will show the path of the pty slave device.

xen-bugtool =========== The xen-bugtool command line application will collate the Xen dmesg output, details of the hardware configuration of your machine, information about the build of Xen that you are using, plus, if you allow it, various logs. The information collated can either be posted to a Xen Bugzilla bug (this bug must already exist in the system, and you must be a registered user there), or it can be saved as a .tar.bz2 for sending or archiving. The collated logs may contain private information, and if you are at all worried about that, you should not use this tool, or you should explicitly exclude those logs from the archive. xen-bugtool is wholly interactive, so simply run it, and answer the questions.
