[Xen-devel] Reg domU shutdown

[Sandesh <sandesh.ahiremath@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
  I have a doubt about the way shutdown of domU is achieved.
When a 'xm shutdown domid' is done, it ensures that domU is shutdown
normally. How does the hypervisor send this event to domU. 

I could not find it in domain_shutdown func, all i could see is that is
just removes the domU context from the scheduler runqueue.

I also looked at the xen drivers in domU kernel source. There i found
cpu_die func in drivers/xen/core/smpboot.c and am assuming this might be
the one invoked for shuting down domU. 
 Please tell me if my understanding is correct. I dont know where else
to look for???

Thanks, 
  Sandesh
