Hi,

Its my understanding that virtual interfaces(vif, vbd...) are created by xapi toolstack when a vm is installed i.e basically xapi toolstack controls creation/deletion of interfaces in dom0 when VM's come and go. Is it true that xapi toolstack runs in domU as well since interfaces are created there for netfront drivers? If I were to create a temp device under /sys/bus/xen-backend/devices/(this is where I see vif, vbd and other devices are present in dom0), I believe I have to modify xapi toolstack is that correct?

Thanks
