Dear Anthony,
I looked at http://hg.codemonkey.ws/libxend, looks real nice. Is it
complete ?
Just missing a few functions to access the VCPU information.. I have no
plans to implement an interface to VNET.
I'm hoping it can be used as a backend for libvir. If you haven't
checked libvir out, you should.
If i may ask what other work you are doing on xen ? I see xenfs there
as well. I hope you won't mind sharing about your work.
Oh, I've got a fair bit of hg repositories there. xenfs is a FUSE
filesystem that exposes a /proc like interface for Xen.

And thanks for the pointer to XendClient.py.

http://hg.codemonkey.ws/libxend
Is pretty close to exhaustive except for scheduler operations and VNET
operations. Check out XendClient.py, that's the closest thing to
a full
list.
