Re: [Xen-devel] [RFC] Is this process running on which machine?

Hi, Ewan and all

Thank you for your comments.
I remake my scripts.

I tested on dom0,domU,HVM(x86),native.
Are there any other comments or suggestions?

=================================================================
#!/bin/bash

if [ -d /proc/xen ] ; then
        if $(grep -q control_d /proc/xen/capabilities); then
                echo "this is dom0."
        else
                echo "this is domU."
        fi
else
        IS_X86HVM="$(strings /proc/acpi/dsdt | grep int-xen)"
        if [ x"${IS_X86HVM}" != x ]; then
                echo "this is x86 hvm machine"
        else
                echo "this is native machine"
        fi
fi
=================================================================

Best Regards,

Akio Takebe
