At the client (xm) the code is in xen/xm/shutdown.py. This just sends simple
messages to Xend (the server). In Xend there is some marshalling, but
eventually the call pops out in xen/xend/XendDomainInfo.py:shutdown, with the
reason set to "reboot". This makes a request to the domain to shut itself
down, and the shutdown the proceeds asynchronously.
When the domain finally shuts down, a watch is fired which comes into
XendDomainInfo.refreshShutdown, and Xend handles the cleanup and reboot from
there.
There is no C code explicitly about rebooting -- this is handled by Xend as a
cleanup of one domain, and creation of a new one in its place.
HTH,
Ewan.
