* NMI: Command line parameter for watchdog timeoutAndrew Cooper2012-03-081-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | Introduce a command parameter to set the watchtog timeout. Manually specifying "watchdog_timeout=<seconds>" on the command line will also turn the watchdog on. For consistency, move opt_watchdog into nmi.c along with opt_watchdog_timeout. Signed-off-by: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> Committed-by: Keir Fraser <keir@xen.org>

* xl: Add defaultbridge config option for xl.confStefan Bader2012-02-131-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently guests created with the xl stack will have "xenbr0" written as their default into xenstore. It can be changed in the individual guest config files, but there is no way to have that default globally changed. Add a config option to xl.conf that allows to have a different default bridge name.

* xl: use json output by defaultIan Campbell2012-02-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the sxp producing code off into a separate file. It is supported for legacy reasons and needn't be updated other than the improve compatibility with xm. libxl_domain_config is not currently generated by the IDL (adding the necessary support for Array types is on my to do list) so hand code the json generation function for now. Since this rather directly exposes a libxl data structure it's not clear what sort of forward compatibility guarantees we can make. However it seems like it should be as stable as libxl's own API (which we are looking to stabilise) (Gratuitous string.h include needed for memset in libxl_util.h) Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com> Acked-by: Ian Jackson <Ian.Jackson@eu.citrix.com> Committed-by: Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@eu.citrix.com>

* xl: allow enable automatic fallback to ACPI events if PV control not available.Ian Campbell2012-01-311-4/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a -F (fallbacks) option to xl destroy|reboot to cause an ACPI shutdown or reset event to be sent to the guest in the event that the guest does not support the PV control interface. This is not the default because the response to these triggers is an guest-internal configuration.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | send_trigger already included all the operations covered by button_press. Rework send_trigger to take an enum instead of a string.

BTW: the xm man page seems not to be in sync with xm sched-sedf -h regarding the time units. I used milliseconds in the xl implementation. Only minimal semantical checks of parameters.
