+Description: If running under Xen:
+ All bits in Xen's start-flags are represented as
+ boolean files, returning '1' if set, '0' otherwise.
+ This takes the place of the defunct /proc/xen/capabilities,
+ which would contain "control_d" on dom0, and be empty
+ otherwise. This flag is now exposed as "initdomain" in
+ addition to the "privileged" flag; all other possible flags
+ are accessible as "unknownXX".
