That would mean hardware domain.

But Olaf needs to know if some of the services like xenconsoled or
xenstored should be started, and if some of the special file systems
should be mounted, right? Those aren't tied to hardware in anyway. In my
view that's the responsibility of the toolstack control domain.

Can you point me to the start of your discussion with Olaf so that I can
check what the disagreement between you and Olaf is about?

Wei.
