[Xen-devel] Xen Development and Debugging

[Ahmed Moneeb Azab <amazab@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I am new to Xen and I need to do some changes/additions to both the 
hypervisor and the kernel code for research purposes. I have two inquiries:
1- What is the best way to do development for Xen? what I am thinking 
about now is to update the code, then rebuild the xen hypervisor and 
compile a new kernel for testing. Is there any way more practical to 
test my updates more quickly?
2-I want to capture some events that occur inside the hypervisor. My 
initial thought was to generate a custom signal and raise it withing the 
hypervisor module. I would then read this signal from a Dom-0 or user 
level application. Again, is there any more practical method, or is 
there any mechanism for event handling already implemented in the Xen code?
Thanks.
