The pvops Linux kernel implements machine_ops.crash_shutdown as
static void xen_hvm_crash_shutdown(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
native_machine_crash_shutdown(regs);
xen_reboot(SHUTDOWN_soft_reset);
}
but currently the libxl driver does not handle the soft reset
shutdown event. As a result, the guest domain never proceeds
past xen_reboot(), making it impossible for HVM domains to save
a crash dump using kexec.
This patch adds support for handling the soft reset event by
calling libxl_domain_soft_reset() and re-enabling domain death
events, which is similar to the xl tool handling of soft reset
shutdown event.
