val immediate : client -> (handle -> 'a Lwt.t) -> 'a Lwt.t

Access xenstore with individual operations.

val transaction : client -> (handle -> 'a Lwt.t) -> 'a Lwt.t

Access xenstore with a single transaction. On conflict the operation will be repeated.

val wait : client -> (handle -> 'a Lwt.t) -> 'a Lwt.t

Wait for some condition to become true and return a value. The function argument should throw Eagain if the condition is not met, and the condition will be re-evaluated when paths change.

val directory : handle -> string -> string list Lwt.t

directory h path returns the directory listing of path.

val read : handle -> string -> string Lwt.t

read h path returns the value at path or raises Enoent.

val write : handle -> string -> string -> unit Lwt.t

write h k v writes v at k.

val rm : handle -> string -> unit Lwt.t

rm h k removes the node k.

val mkdir : handle -> string -> unit Lwt.t

mkdir h k creates the node k with an empty value.

val setperms : handle -> string -> Xs_protocol.ACL.t -> unit Lwt.t

setperms h k acl sets the permissions of k to acl.

val debug : handle -> string list -> string list Lwt.t

val getdomainpath : handle -> int -> string Lwt.t

getdomainpath domid returns the local directory of domain domid.

val watch : handle -> string -> Xs_protocol.Token.t -> unit Lwt.t

watch h path token registers a manual watch at path with token.

val unwatch : handle -> string -> Xs_protocol.Token.t -> unit Lwt.t

unwatch h path token unregisters a manual watch at path with token.

val introduce : handle -> int -> nativeint -> int -> unit Lwt.t

introduce h domid store_mfn store_port called by a toolstack to signal the construction of a new domain.

val set_target : handle -> int -> int -> unit Lwt.t
