Hi,     I use follow code get xenstore ring and event channel, then i wrapped writing and reading function to operate it ,but it came to oops:     struct xenstore_domain_interface {     char req[XENSTORE_RING_SIZE]; /* Requests to xenstore daemon. */     char rsp[XENSTORE_RING_SIZE]; /* Replies and async watch events. */     XENSTORE_RING_IDX req_cons, req_prod;     XENSTORE_RING_IDX rsp_cons,

The entries in xenstore have permission attributes. The attributes can be easily altered by xenstore-chmod, however, I cannot find a easy way to see them. I''ve modified xenstore_client.c to raise a new utility. The utility checks the permission and makes an easy-look output. Please tell me any suggestions. Thanks.

Hello, I noticed a strace delay when running "virsh list" on my Xen-4.1.3 test server. On further investigation I noticed that in XenStore there were multiple /vm/$UUID entries suffixed by -$VERSION, especially I hat 16 entries for my dom0. For each reboot of the host I get a new entry. After disabling Xend I get the following output after a reboot: > root at xen5:~# xenstore-ls

Package: xenstore-utils Version: 4.0.1-2 all it says is: "Description: Xenstore utilities for Xen This package contains the Xenstore utilities." Wow, i never would have guessed that a package called xenstore-utils might contain Xenstore utilities. I'm glad that's cleared up! that just leaves a few tiny, niggling questions: 1. WTF are the Xenstore utilities? 2. What are

Hi, I'm trying to use virDomainInterfaceAddresses to get interface info for XEN DOMs but keep getting following error: libvirt: Domain Config error : this function is not supported by the connection driver: virDomainInterfaceAddresses I tried recompiling libvirt with ./configure --with-interface --with-network and it all went fine but still no luck. Am i missing something? Thanks,

Hi : As I want to know the information of the VMs that currently runing on the same physical machine, I''d like to get those VM''s information from xenstore, such as macaddress. Indeed, what I want is IP address, so, if guest can write things to xenstore, I''d like it write its IP address into xenstore and let domain0 reads it directly. So, can anybody tell me whether a PV

I''ve seen some people asking why exposing xenstore attributes via sysfs could be useful. Here''s why I would really like to see such a patch make it into Xen: I''ve been working on getting domU''s to know enough about themselves to be manageable. I require a 128-bit UUID for each domU, and I require that each domU be able to determine its own UUID in userspace.

Hi, I want to know how everything communicates with XenStore. Do domUs use the front-end/back-end driver to dom0 and then the back-end driver contacts xenstored? In particular, how do the xenstore-* commands work on a dom0 and domU? And when should unix-domain sockets be used to communicate with xenstored?

Is it possible to create a custom directory tree inside Xenstore using any of the Xenstore-utilities?? For example, "/local/domain/0/Customdir". Thx, Venkat _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

Hi, I am using xen-4.1-testing with Linux 3.4.3. The hotplug script xencommons echoes that xenstore is not restartable. Can anyone tell me the exact reason why it is not restartable. I tried to restart xenstore by killing the xenstore and restarting it with xencommons but after that VM creation doesn''t work. I used to do the same with the setting <xen-3.4+Linux-2.6.18> and it used

I understand that "xenstore-chmod XENSTOREPATH perm" will allow xenstore access to each other domains according to the permissions set. But if I need to permit access to a specific domain which will avoid a global permit access, is there a way?

Hi,     I am tring to write xenstore some information ,so that a guest can read, if i simply xenstore-write /foo "123" in domain 0, guest have not the permission to read this ,and guest domain number are dynamic, so i can not write a program to write /local/domain/X, which X is the domain id i want to export information to, can i ?     So, is there a path (a static path,without domain

I''m looking at building a xenstore-based watchdog, as described at http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2005-07/msg00597.html However, being somewhat new to xenstore, I''d appreciate some pointers. - What portions of the xenstore namespace should I use? I''m looking for at least two settings writable by the DomUs: A flag to enable/disable the watchdog
