The solution we envision looks like this: - xenbus adds a hotplug environment variable to its devices which indicates the path in the store where the device configuration information is stored - we implement a simple tool to read/write values in the store from the command line - xend puts the additional device configuration information in the store as seperate nodes - we extend the hotplug script to read device configuration information out of the store using the path from the environment variable and then use this information to run the right script with arguments We'll also use something similar to fix file: support and use the hotplug infrastructure to effectively move file: setup out of xend into the backend domain. christian _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
