I just added the following:

there is also a new "virsh reboot" command to test it. However there when trying it I saw that the guest OS shutdown in reboot mode:
------------------------ Turning off quotas: Unmounting pipe file systems: Please stand by while rebooting the system... md: stopping all md devices. md: md0 switched to read-only mode. Restarting system. . ------------------------
but the domain was not relaunched by default. I guess this also requires to set up specific xenstore attributes so that the domain is actually restarted. So not completely done yet.
You are probably aware of this but FYI... I used virDomainReboot() with success when the domain was created with "xm create" and "on_reboot = 'restart'" in domain config file. Looking at virDomainParseXMLDesc() in xml.c I see we are not accounting for a <on_reboot> element (or on_crash, on_poweroff) in the XML. Are you working on this Daniel or should I take a stab at it? I'm guessing you just want elements like <on_reboot>restart</on_reboot> <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> <on_crash>restart</on_crash> Same goes turning sxp to XML in xend_parse_sexp_desc() in xend_internal.c.
