[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH v3 2/5] tools/xenstore: add documentation for new set/get-feature commands
Add documentation for two new Xenstore wire commands SET_FEATURE and
GET_FEATURE used to set or query the Xenstore features visible in the
ring page of a given domain.
Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>

V2:
- remove feature bit (Julien Grall)
- GET_FEATURE without domid will return Xenstore supported features
(triggered by Julien Grall)
V3:
- clarify that guest only sees a copy of features (Julien Grall)
- add remark that SET_FEATURE will be rejected after INTRODUCE of a
domain (Julien Grall)
