Hi all,

I just wondered why two empty xenstored folder /var/lib/xenstored and
/var/run/xenstored  be created when source make and copy to
dist/install.
The pids are stored in /var/run/xenstored and the store data is stored in /var/lib/xenstored.

xenstored always has to be running so these directories will be filled with something very soon after install.

Unless there's a compelling reason not to do so, I think it's okay to assume the existance of /var/{lib,run}/xenstored and have the install script make it.

Regards,

Anthony Liguori

How about remove them from source making and create them when 1st
xenstrored start, if not other special files generated in those folder?
So we don't need to add more in /var.
Any comments? :)

Thanks,
Yongkang You(Kangkang)
