Subject: Mouse Click and Context Switch Question
To: xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


Hello
I am starting a research project which involves using Xen. Basically
we would like to monitor the input to an application running in the
guest OS . Specifically, we need to be able to figure out when an
input was made via a mouse click and what the coordinates of the mouse
pointer were on that click. If I understand correctly, on a mouse
click, an interrupt occurs which gets handled by the Xen VMM --- is
there a way of figuring out at the Xen VMM level what the coordinates
of the click are when this interrupt occurs ?
I understand this would also involve figuring out when a context
switch occurs to that particular application so that we can grab the
right mouse click. Is there an easy way to figure this context switch
out ?

I would appreciate if you could guide me with the above queries and
also which files in the Xen source I should be looking at to achieve
this task.
Thank you very much for your help
Sujata
