[PATCH 0/2] reset xenstore watches to fix kexec in Xen PVonHVM guests
The following series improves kexec in a Xen PVonHVM guest.
It is available via git:
git://github.com/olafhering/linux.git xen-kexec-XS_RESET_WATCHES-3.0
A new xenstored command XS_RESET_WATCHES has been added in
xen-unstable.hg changeset 23839:42a45baf037d. The command removes all
watches and transactions for the guest. The following patches make use
of the new command to wipe all existing watches during startup.

[PATCH] xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches from old kernel
...it is rebuilt from scratch, so
the missing unregister is not an issue in that case.
With this change the xenstored is instructed to wipe all active watches
for the guest. However, a patch for xenstored is required so that it
accepts the XS_RESET_WATCHES request from a client (see changeset
23839:42a45baf037d in xen-unstable.hg). Without the patch for xenstored
the registration of watches will fail and some features of a PVonHVM
guest are not available. The guest is still able to boot, but repeated
kexec boots will fail.
