Steven Smith, who originally wrote XenBus code has now updated it as a part of a larger patch. It's possible that the problem will go away then. We are currently working on checking that in.

I'll report back when that happens.

Melvin,


Did you or anyone else on the Xen distribution list make any progress
with bug 647: "Creation of Mini-OS domain causes certain xm commands

to

hang"?


Gregor said that he would be looking into this. I am not sure if he has
made any progress.


After starting mini-OS and running "xm list" it seems as if the

function

"domains" in XMLRPCServer.py is entered, but never returns.


Yup that is where the hang happens. BTW, if you don't initialize xenbus
this problem does not happen the last time I tried. So I think it is a
locking issue in the mini-os xenbus code.

Cheers,
Aravindh
