Re: [Xen-devel] watches not working from domU userspace

It seems like this would add a lot of overhead. Xenstore commands are
typically only a couple hundred bytes and since they are synchronous

write,
rm}, the extra setup/teardown would also add to the cost.
Those overheads will certainly be insignificant. Far more important
concerns are a clean design and small (as possible) implementation,
with as little code/logic duplication as possible.
Implementing a proxy xenstored in the kernel for the use of userland
code is not a nice solution. :-)
