So basically, the xenstore++ is in a stripped down secured domain and someone with role-based access privileges communicates with xenstore ++ to connect a resource to a domain. Xenstore++ checks the permissions and sets up the connection where the protocol description to use is an attribute of the resource class. The protocol is policed and if it's violated then either the resource provider (BE) or consumer (FE) or both get blown away.
There can be generic mechanisms in xenstore++ for colouring resources and grouping roles etc to do fancy MAC stuff.
...or something like that.
Harry.
Hmm... this is not how I see xenstore today. Did you discuss what it takes to implement the "++"? (especially the part where you suggest moving xenstore in its on secured domain sounds very interesting)
No. I didn't discuss what it would take to implement it.
Personally I'd start by defining a fault-tolerant cluster architecture and then build it inside that. That would be a fair bit of work up-front but I think a lot of the significant use-cases demand it and it would have a discriminating impact on the implementation.
Would this be a non-intrusive change to Xen?
Probably not with my approach :-)
