For example XCP 1.1 (which is similar to XenServer 5.6 SP2): xen-3.4.pq.hq - patch queue against tag RELEASE-3.4.2 in xen-3.4-testing.hg: http://xenbits.xen.org/hg/XCP/1.1/xen-3.4.pq.hg/ and: qemu-xen-3.4.pq.hg - patch queue against c/s 284d056851f7 of qemu-xen-unstable.hg: http://xenbits.xen.org/hg/XCP/1.1/qemu-xen-3.4.pq.hg/ and: dom0 kernel: http://xenbits.xen.org/hg/XCP/1.1/linux-2.6.32.pq.hg/ XenServer 6.0 and XCP 1.5 are based on Xen 4.1.x, but still using Xenlinux 2.6.32 dom0 kernel.> Specifically looking for something more accurate then major.minor. > Also having accurate Linux kernel versions would be great also.
