[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 4/6] libxl: allow creation of domains with a specified or random domid

[Paul Durrant <pdurrant@amazon.com>]

This patch adds a 'domid' field to libxl_domain_create_info and then
modifies do_domain_create() to use that value if it is valid. Any valid
domid will be checked against the retired domid list before being passed
to libxl__domain_make().
If the domid value is invalid then Xen will choose the domid, as before,
unless the value is the new special RANDOM_DOMID value added to the API.
This value instructs libxl__domain_make() to select a random domid value,
check it for validity, verify it does not match a retired domain, and then
pass it to Xen's XEN_DOMCTL_createdomain operation. If Xen determines that
it co-incides with an existing domain, a new random value will be
selected and the operation will be re-tried.

NOTE: libxl__logv() is also modified to only log valid domid values in
      messages rather than any domid, valid or otherwise, that is not
      INVALID_DOMID.
