[SPAM] Re: [Xen-devel] XAPI source code

Hi Dave,
 
Nice to receive your indications.
 
Following your suggestions, The xapi has worked on a non-XCP platform. After copying some scripts and excute files to the new host from the XCP, many basic functions such as "xe sr-create" can work well. However, when I tried to start a HVM(windowxp), the "xe vm-start" hanged up and output nothing. I can not find any obvious indications in the xensource.log. Below is the  xensource.log.

Cheers,
Jay

This contains code to store a "redo log" directly on a shared block device. If this is enabled and the Pool master crashes, none
of the metadata updates will be lost.

This is a combination of an IDL for the XenAPI and a database schema for the metadata.

It originally stood for 'xen in userspace'. It's a hypercall simulator-- it allows the toolstack to be run inside a small VM without talking to a real hypervisor or starting real domains. It allows large pools to be simulated efficiently without having to nest hypervisors.

> 4 stats

This isn't very important. We use this to compute simple aggregate statistics e.g. the length of the 'blackout' interval during a live migrate. I'm not sure how useful these numbers really are.
 
> 5 rpc-light

In xen-api-libs.hg this provides a nice way to autogenerate value marshalling/unmarshalling code directly from ocaml datatypes (via ocamlp4). There are currently JSON and XMLRPC 'backends' and it's easy to add new ones.

> 6 rss

An unused module which can generate RSS feeds.

> 7 xb (I think the xapi needs not to talk to xenbus directly)

This is used by the 'xs' library to talk to xenstore. Note that xapi doesn't use libxenstore.

> 8 xsrpc (why it writes some "rpc" keys to path of "domain/<domid>" in the xenstore?)

This is an old prototype of a xenstore RPC mechanism. In future we'll probably add backends to 'rpc-light' instead of using this module. That way it's easier to change the concrete data format (e.g. to use shared memory or something)
