It may happen (especially when VM doesn't close cleanly and needs to be
killed) that qubesdb-daemon will not notice VM shutdown immediately.
Normally it would stop after 60s timeout, but speed it up in case of
system shutdown
QubesOS/qubes-issues#1425
When user logins, login script will try to connect all guid to all the
running VMs. If VMs are still booting at this stage, will never
automatically get its guid (until user tries to start some program
there). This can for example lead to lack of nm-applet icon.
Mostly done. Things still using xenstore/not working at all:
- DispVM
- qubesutils.py (especially qvm-block and qvm-usb code)
- external IP change notification for ProxyVM (should be done via RPC
service)
Forking daemon after initializing hypervisor connection can cause
problems (and actually does in case of libvirt).
To notify systemd when daemon is ready use notify socket (previously it
was termination of parent process).
It is common for both dom0 and VM, and also quite linux-specific
(other OSes will need other implementation). So move to linux-specific
repo (not dom0-specific).
