We do already have a tools/ directory, as it happens. It has two things in it... Personally I think tools/ ought to be for the set of things that we build if you --enable-tools in configure and which we document in docs/tools. tools/i386/qemu-vmsr-helper.c fits in that idea of what the directory is for. tools/ebpf/ does not, but I don't know enough about what it's for to suggest a better home for it. We might at some point want to tidy up the qemu-io.c, qemu-bridge-helper.c, etc that currently live in the top level directory so they go in tools/ instead. thanks -- PMM
