libxen-dev: Public headers and libs for Xen

 This package contains the public headers and static libraries for Xen.
 .
 The libxenlight library is intended as a common base for all Xen toolstack
 developers. The libxlutil library contains additional helpers which may
 be useful to toolstack developers.
 .
 The libxenstore library allows userspace processes to interact with
 the XenStore database. Command line tools for accessing xenstore are
 provided is via the xenstore-utils package.
 .
 Most of the other included libraries are internal, and intended for
 use by the Xen toolstack, rather than directly.

 Documentation for the Xen hypervisor and surrounding software,
 including descriptions of the hypercall interfaces and of some
 of the library APIs.
 .
 You do not need this package for the primary manpages for the
 Xen control utilities, as those are in the xen-utils-common package.

xen-hypervisor-4.17-amd64: Xen Hypervisor on AMD64

 The hypervisor is the "core" for Xen itself. It gets started by the boot
 loader and controls cpu and memory, sharing them between your
 administrative domain (Domain 0) and the virtual guest systems.

xen-hypervisor-4.17-amd64-dbg: debug symbols for Xen Hypervisor on AMD64

 This package provides the detached debug symbols for the Xen hypervisor.

xen-hypervisor-4.17-arm64: Xen Hypervisor on ARM64

 The hypervisor is the "core" for Xen itself. It gets started by the boot
 loader and controls cpu and memory, sharing them between your
 administrative domain (Domain 0) and the virtual guest systems.

xen-hypervisor-4.17-arm64-dbg: debug symbols for Xen Hypervisor on ARM64

 This package provides the detached debug symbols for the Xen hypervisor.

xen-hypervisor-4.17-armhf: Xen Hypervisor on ARMHF

 The hypervisor is the "core" for Xen itself. It gets started by the boot
 loader and controls cpu and memory, sharing them between your
 administrative domain (Domain 0) and the virtual guest systems.

xen-hypervisor-4.17-armhf-dbg: debug symbols for Xen Hypervisor on ARMHF

 This package provides the detached debug symbols for the Xen hypervisor.

xen-hypervisor-common: Xen Hypervisor - common files

 The configuration which arranges for an installed hypervisor to be booted
 as default, with the right command line arguments passed to both
 hypervisor and host (Domain 0) kernel.
 .
 This package is only required on the host system (Domain 0) and not on the
 virtual guest systems (Domain U).

xen-system-amd64: Xen System on AMD64 (metapackage)

 This package depends on the latest Xen hypervisor for use on AMD64 and the
 Xen utils.

xen-system-arm64: Xen System on ARM64 (metapackage)

 This package depends on the latest Xen hypervisor for use on ARM64 and the
 Xen utils.

xen-system-armhf: Xen System on ARMHF (metapackage)

 This package depends on the latest Xen hypervisor for use on ARMHF and the
 Xen utils.

xen-utils-4.17: Xen administrative tools

 The userspace tools to manage a system virtualized through the Xen virtual
 machine monitor.
 .
 qemu-utils and seabios are needed for "Xen HVM" (amd64)

xen-utils-4.17-dbg: debug symbols for xen-utils-4.17

 This package provides debug symbols for the xen-utils binaries as well as
 detached debug symbols for the `shim' used for booting PV guests in an HVM
 container.

xen-utils-common: Xen administrative tools - common files

 The userspace tools to manage a system virtualized through the Xen virtual
 machine monitor.
 .
 This package is only required on the host system (Domain 0) and not on the
 virtual guest systems (Domain U).

xen-utils-common-dbgsym: debug symbols for xen-utils-common
xenstore-utils: Xenstore command line utilities for Xen

 This package contains command line utilities for interacting with
 XenStore.
 .
 XenStore is a shared database used for interdomain communication of
 configuration and status information. It is accessible to all domains
 running on the same Xen host. See https://wiki.xen.org/wiki/XenStore for
 more information.
 .
 In the common case these tools are used by the Xen toolstack running in
 domain0 (or a driver domain) however they may also be used in a guest
 domain to support local scripting which wants to communicate via XenStore.
