I'm not sure I quite understood what you meant, so apologies if this is old 
news to you.  From the arch reboot code, you can call:

HYPERVISOR_sched_op(SCHEDOP_shutdown | (SHUTDOWN_reboot << 
SCHEDOP_reasonshift))

Which will cause Xend to destroy your domain and then rebuild it.  Similarly, 
you can notify when you want to halt and when you want to explicitly crash.

Cheers,
Mark
