Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Change xs_read_watch interfaces to support variable arguments

[Anthony Liguori <aliguori@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I should mention that I ran the xenstore testsuite (which rocks btw) and 
tested the block devices and network devices.  I haven't tested blktap 
and vtpm but the changes are identical (and I don't have any test cases 
for those).
