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.
