Hi,
I'm giving Vixen a try by following the instructions in
https://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/xsa254/README.vixen
Debian jessie, xen 4.8.1 packages from jessie-backports with XSAs
applied.
I finally got a guest booted although its networking doesn't work.
Every time I've started a guest and had it crash it's left behind a
domain called "(null)" and a matching qemu process so I assume
that's the device model. I thought that was just because the guest
was failing to start.
Now that I have one which boots, even when I shut it down cleanly
there's still a domain left behind:
$ sudo xl list
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
Domain-0 0 2048 2 r----- 104114.0
(null) 17 1 2 --ps-d 14.2
$ ps awux | grep qemu
root 3310 1.2 1.2 430648 24676 ? SLl 22:48 0:06 /usr/local/lib/xen/bin/qemu-system-i386 -xen-domid 17 -chardev socket,id=libxl-cmd,path=/var/run/xen/qmp-libxl-17,server,nowait -no-shutdown -mon chardev=libxl-cmd,mode=control -chardev socket,id=libxenstat-cmd,path=/var/run/xen/qmp-libxenstat-17,server,nowait -mon chardev=libxenstat-cmd,mode=control -nodefaults -no-user-config -name debtest1 -display none -serial pty -boot order=c -smp 2,maxcpus=2 -netdev type=tap,id=net0,ifname=vif17.0-emu,script=no,downscript=no -machine xenfv -cdrom /var/lib/xen/pvshim-sidecars/debtest1.iso -m 2552
If I kill the qemu process then the domain does away.
Is this expected? It doesn't seem workable if so.
Cheers,
Andy

Usually this means there is a dangling backend that wasn't properly
terminated. It would be useful to xenstore-ls the domain and see
which backend is not in a disconnected state.

After halting that:
$ sudo xl list
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
Domain-0 0 2048 2 r----- 104246.6
(null) 19 1 2 --ps-d 86.6
$ sudo xenstore-ls
tool = ""
xenstored = ""
local = ""
domain = ""
0 = ""
control = ""
feature-poweroff = "1"
feature-reboot = "1"
feature-suspend = "1"
domid = "0"
name = "Domain-0"
device-model = ""
vm = ""
libxl = ""
$ sudo xenstore-ls /local/domain/19
xenstore-ls: xs_directory (/local/domain/19): No such file or directory

There is a bug in the dm wrapper that would cause QEMU to become
orphaned. An updated version will be provided.
