In tools/xenstore there are living xenstored and xenstore clients.
They are no longer sharing anything apart from the "xenstore" in their
names.

Move the xenstored sources into a new directory tools/xenstored while
dropping the "xenstored_" prefix from their names. This will make it
clearer that xenstore clients and xenstored are independent from each
other.

In term of naming, I would prefer if we follow what was done for the console. I.e:

xenstore/client: All the clients
xenstore/daemon: C Xenstored

This would avoid the one character difference between the two directories.

Yes, that would be the alternative (apart from renaming the xenstore directory
to something different, e.g. xs-clients).

xs-clients would be OK. I guess you didn't suggest xenstore-clients because it is too long?

I was more thinking about path name completion when typing. Using xs-clients
would allow to use the <tab> after the second character already. :-)



The reason I was leaning towards my solution was that the clients are meant to
be used with any xenstored implementation. This wouldn't be reflected by using
a common tools/xenstore parent directory for the clients and C xenstored.

You have a point. I was also trying to avoid to have too many directoy in tools. But we already have 'qemu-trad' and 'qemu-upstream'...


In the end I could live with your proposal, too.

My main concern with your proposal was the one character difference in the name. xenstored and xs-clients/xenstore-clients would work for me.

Okay, thanks.

With above reasoning I'm leaning towards xs-clients.
