Thanks for the RRD library link -- I hadnt seen this before and it looks very useful for Xen tracing in MirageOS! A few questions while reading through the source:
- Rrd_io just exposes a single Resource_closed exception and no other values. That's perhaps easier to encode in the return value?
- Rrd_reader is functorized on its transport mechanism (for Gnt selection). This should mean that the library can compile as a stub domain on Mirage, as well as using the /dev/gnt* interfaces on Linux. Is the current usecase to run in dom0 or a separate RRD domain?
- Have you considered using vchan to let other tools capture the rrd stream more easily?
best,
Anil
