Hi *,

Whats the recommended way of executing periodic tasks in Xen? I can
stick stuff in the scheduler loop, but if there's a neater way of
doing this I'd prefer that. I think I should be able to write a
function, and have Xen invoke it periodically (via a timer interrupt
or some other event?) but I'm not sure about the details. Thoughts?

Also, is there any way of delegating such a periodic task within Xen
to a specific core/processor in the system?

TIA,
Diwaker
