[Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC v3 00/28] libxl: Cancelling asynchronous operations

[Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is v3 of my work-in-progress series to support cancellation of
long-running libxl operations.

Changes from v2 are very minor: one bugfix, and comment and style
changes.

I have rebased this onto current xen.git#master (not #staging).  I
have compiled it and smoke tested it: it can do xl create and xl
destroy (of a PV guest) and xl list.  I have not executed the
cancellation paths AT ALL.  I am hoping for testing support from the
consumers - primarily XenServer.

As a result this patch series SHOULD NOT BE APPLIED.

I have gone through the replies to v2 and in each case made all the
changes which were suggested, or made my own responses.  I'm afraid I
haven't necessarily waited for each little subthread to a come to a
conclusion.  Changes from those ongoing threads will be incorporated
in future version(s).

The list of patches is very similar to last time.  Notably, "libxl:
cancellation: Make spawns cancellable" has been dropped (see my
email <21786.60220.577051.878861@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>).

Thanks,
Ian.
