[libvirt] [PATCH] libxl: add support for soft reset
Posted by Jim Fehlig 5 years, 5 months ago 
The pvops Linux kernel implements machine_ops.crash_shutdown as

static void xen_hvm_crash_shutdown(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
        native_machine_crash_shutdown(regs);
        xen_reboot(SHUTDOWN_soft_reset);
}

but currently the libxl driver does not handle the soft reset
shutdown event. As a result, the guest domain never proceeds
past xen_reboot(), making it impossible for HVM domains to save
a crash dump using kexec.

This patch adds support for handling the soft reset event by
calling libxl_domain_soft_reset() and re-enabling domain death
events, which is similar to the xl tool handling of soft reset
shutdown event.

I'm not sure why I have this useless local. I've squashed the below diff into my 
local branch.

Thanks, but I found this didn't compile with Xen 4.6, our minimum supported Xen 
version. Soft reset was introduced in 4.7. I've sent a V2, which includes some 
cleanups to the libxlDomainShutdownThread function. Thanks for looking at it if 
you have time
