[Xen-devel] [PULL 7/8] xen: domainbuild: reopen libxenctrl interface after forking for domain watcher.



From: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@xxxxxxxxxx>

Using an existing libxenctrl handle after a fork was never
particularly safe (especially if foreign mappings existed at the time
of the fork) and the xc fd has been unavailable for many releases.

Reopen the handle after fork and therefore do away with xc_fd().
