[PATCH] tools/xenstore: don't let special watches be children of /
Posted by Juergen Gross 3 years, 9 months ago 
When firing special watches (e.g. "@releaseDomain"), they will be
regarded to be valid children of the "/" node. So a domain having
registered a watch for "/" and having the privilege to receive
the special watches will receive those special watch events for the
registered "/" watch.

Fix that by calling the related fire_watches() with the "exact"
parameter set to true, causing a mismatch for the "/" node.

Can I ask you to use my Amazon email instead:

Sorry about the inconsistency. I work on Xen as part of my job, but I decided to use Gmail for posting on xen-devel, because I heard that it's a pain to make Amazon mail work properly with external mailing lists.
