With the upstream qemu the plan is to use QMP to communicate with qemu
from libxl. Anthony Perard posted an early version of his patch to do
this yesterday.

For the qemu-xen tree most such communication is done via xenstore and
there is no current plan to integrate with the monitor (nor any need
AFAIK).

What are you trying to achieve?

Ian.
