Hello,
I wonder why USB backend does not use XenBus. (in xen unstable).
Network backend and Block backend do use XenBus.
And USB backend seems to have much in common with them. (Rings,
event channels,etc).
Is it a task to be done in the future, or is there some
architectural or other
reason that XenBus will not be used by USB backend at all ?
Can someone elaborate on it in 2-3 sentences (or more, if he likes) ?
TIA,
MR

Hi Mark,
The USB stuff will use the Xenbus / Xenstore stuff once it's been updated.
It's just not been switched over yet. This'll go in the same time as the
Linux 2.6 USB virtualisation support is added (the current drivers won't work
in 2.6).
Cheers,
Mark
