Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Add xen-guest-agent and daemon
Date: Wed,  8 Jan 2025 14:12:48 -0600
This train adds the necessary Rust packages requried to build the
xen-guest-agent package, builds it, and defines a service-type for
running it as a daemon.

The guest agent allows the virtualizing host (Xen) to receive
information about the running OS guest and the host to send graceful
versions of commands to the guest.

The service-type is mutually exclusive with the xe-guest-utilities
service-type and daemon introduced in issue #72249.

Karl Hallsby (7):
  gnu: Add rust-uname-0.1.
  gnu: Add rust-xenstore-sys-0.3
  gnu: Add rust-xenstore-sys-0.2
  gnu: Add rust-xenstore-rs-0.7
  gnu: Add rust-xenstore-rs-0.6
  gnu: Add xen-guest-agent.
  services: Add xen-guest-agent-service-type.

Applied, thanks!

As mentioned before, it would be great if you could see what it would
take to write a system test (and thus, a way to boot Xen) so that these
services don’t bitrot.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
