Interactions with other daemons

Please specify kind of interaction, e.g. exec, sockets, DBUS, etc - Dickon

xenmgr interacts with the following daemons on system:

  • database daemon (dbd) for config storage. Via DBUS only.
  • xenvm for all low level vm operations / domain creation / shutdown etc. Via DBUS and textual vm config files in /tmp/xenmgr-xenvm-$UUID
  • input daemon for handling on-boot authentication screen, vm focus switching, screen lock, seamless mouse configuration. Via DBUS.
  • network daemon to notify it about state for vms marked with "provides-network-backend" property. Via DBUS (over v4v into network domain)
  • surfman to query it for list of passthrough GPU devices if using PVMs ("get_vgpu_mode" surfman RPC). Via DBUS.
