Re: [Xen-devel] watches not working from domU userspace

It seems like this would add a lot of overhead.  Xenstore commands are
typically only a couple hundred bytes and since they are synchronous
(per client and excluding watches), this would leave a lot of the page
 unused.  Moreover, for transient clients, such as xenstore-{read, 
write,
rm}, the extra setup/teardown would also add to the cost.
 
 
 Those overheads will certainly be insignificant. Far more important 
concerns are a clean design and small (as possible) implementation, 
with as little code/logic duplication as possible.
 Implementing a proxy xenstored in the kernel for the use of userland 
code is not a nice solution. :-)
