[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2] xenstore: add memory allocation debugging capability



Add support for debugging memory allocation statistics to xenstored.
Specifying "-M <file>" on the command line will enable the feature.
Whenever xenstored receives SIGUSR1 it will dump out a full talloc
report to <file>. This helps finding e.g. memory leaks in xenstored.

To be applied on top of my "xenstore: fix memory leak of xenstored"
series. In fact this patch was used to find the problem the series
fixed and I used it to verify the patches are working.
