I see your patch is handling this issue but maybe was not meant to be
upstreamed,
so I would like to ask if you are willing to make it upstream-able or if it’s
not planned
to do so.
Right now I do not have the time to work on this.
First there need to be an agreement about how the timeout needs to be
configured.

Hello everyone,
Following our earlier discussion, we learned that there is already a
solution to fix the LIBXL hotplug timeout issue. Currently, we have two
options:
1. Xenstore Key/Value Approach: This is implemented in the patch
"libxl.LIBXL_HOTPLUG_TIMEOUT.patch". This method does not require
recompiling libxl. It involves setting up a key/value in Xenstore before
domain creation. The patch can be viewed here:
[https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory/xen/libxl.LIBXL_HOTPLUG_TIMEOUT.patch?expand=1].
2. Configuration via 'xl.conf': We can make "LIBXL_HOTPLUG_TIMEOUT"
configurable through the 'xl.conf' file.
I propose we have a discussion to determine the most suitable approach.
Once we reach the best solution, we can move forward with the
implementation/upstream.
Your feedback, suggestions, or any improvements would be greatly
appreciated.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Regards,
Divin
