Bug Description

On a Xen host it is possible to have guests started via libvirt or xl directly running in parallel. In that case "xl list -l" has a bug which causes it to report an error and fail to process any guest.

On the other side libvirt does not try the xen:/// uri to find Xen guests started via libvirt. And so those won't get shutdown properly either.

Fix this on both sides by changing xen-init-list to process only domains started by the xl toolstack and on the other side add the xen uri to the list of uris in the libvirt upstart script.

---------------
libvirt (1.2.8-0ubuntu10) utopic; urgency=medium

  * libvirt-bin.upstart: delay start until rc finished
    This give hypervisors more time to finish their setup (LP: #1377900).
  * libvirt-bin.upstart: add xen:/// uri to the list (LP: #1377960)

---------------
xen (4.4.0-0ubuntu9) utopic; urgency=low

  * debian/scripts/xen-init-list: Modify code to only list domains started
    by the xl command (when using libxl). Also working around a bug in the
    "list -l" command of the xl toolstack which causes it to fail if there
    are domains running which are not created by xl (like via libvirt)
    (LP: #1377960).
