Hi
I want to write a module for a Xen DomU but in order to enable some
functionality I might need, I want to understand how Xenbus and Xenstore
are implemented in kernel.
I want two domains (let's say Dom1 and Dom2) insert a module (lets say
mymodule.ko) and in kernel space exchange some information.
I want this module to use Xenbus but I dont understand exactly what each
file of the kernel source tree directory /Linux/drivers/xen/xenbus is for.
Specifically, what functionality do xenbus_xs.c, xenbus_client.c and
xenbus_comms.c implement?
Thanks
