It's certainly possible, I've used this code as the basis for a new 
driver, which is similar to the vbd driver. The driver starts fine but I 
am unable to have it participate in a domain save/restore. I guess that 
this is because xend is not aware of  the new driver and the open 
devices supported by this driver and hence the driver does not receive 
resume calls when the domain is restored..

Is there any way that a new driver can make it's existance known to xend?
