There is a book, "The Definitive Guide to the Xen Hypervisor" by David
Chrisnall:

As I''m sure you''ve experienced with Linux, books are obsolete
by the
time they hit the presses; but it should at least introduce you to the
concepts.

One warning: I believe the book has an "example scheduler".  However:
* As written in the book, it doesn''t work (several people have come to
the list for help debugging it)
* Scheduling is a terrible place to dive in.  If it''s broken your
machine will often simply not boot; opportunties for nasty race
conditions and deadlock abound.

Or, let us know what you think you might want to try to do, and we can
point you to the appropriate part of the code tree. :-)

I am just trying to understand a lot of Xen specific things.
