It's certainly possible, I've used this code as the basis for a new driver, which is similar to the vbd driver. The driver starts fine but I am unable to have it participate in a domain save/restore. I guess that this is because xend is not aware of the new driver and the open devices supported by this driver and hence the driver does not receive resume calls when the domain is restored..

Is there any way that a new driver can make it's existance known to xend?

Thanks a lot!

This seems to be good for setting up block and network driver. But can the
same code used for new drivers?

BTW: why do you call your repository evilman? ;-)

I found from xen block and network driver that xenstore seems to need

But the python code seems to be complicated.

Is there any complete tutorial or manual on how to use xenstore?
Check out the tools/migrate/buscreate.c tool in
http://www.distlab.dk/hg/index.cgi/xen-evilman.hg , it creates a
domain with disk and network access, without needing python.
