Re: [Xen-devel] Q: How to find own domid or uuid from domU?

Good! I've been strapped for time, but will eventually get around to it perhaps. Mike Day's been doing excellent work on it.

I think it would be nice if the attribute were called uuid and not vm with "/vm/" prepended. I suppose it's fine to keep "vm" as a shortcut, but a separate UUID attribute is more important, IMHO.

Peace.

We have a sysfs framework for Xen (xen_sysfs.c) submitted from IBM and in our tree. Having a uuid attribute in there sounds fine to me -- feel free to make a patch! You can get the uuid from xenstore as Gerd described, or add a version hypercall to grab it.
