[Xen-devel] xm shutdown timeout

[John Levon <levon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

xend has a timeout such that if an 'xm shutdown' request does not result
in the domain shutting down within a certain time period, the domain is
violently destroyed.

This seems like a strange choice - if the domain isn't responding
properly to such requests, then it must be in a buggy state, and should
surely be preserved for administrator action (dumping core, destroying,
whatever).

Is there any other purpose to this timeout?

thanks
john
