Hi all,
I recently upgraded my Xen 3.2.1 to 3.3.1 on Centos 5.2. Everything seems to
have gone pretty smoothly except I have a few issues. My system specs are:
4GB RAM
Q6600 quad core Intel CPU
P5E-VM DO Q35 Intel mobo (VT-d enabled)
Skystar2 DVB PCI card passed through to HVM DomU
HVM Windows XP SP3 DomU
1. When I restart my DomU, it shuts down and turns into Domain-Unnamed but
doesn''t restart. I did notice it restarts when using a stubdom however.
I suspect it may have to do with the VT-d PCI passthrough device though.
2. I was able to configure my DomU HVM to use a stubdom, but my passthrough PCI
device wil not show in the DomU. Does Xen support VT-d passthrough when using a
stubdom?
3. With my 3.2.1 install, I couldn''t use vcpu=2 for my HVM DomU,
because RTSP streaming would fail. Someone mentioned to use timer_mode=1 but
from what I read this is the default now in the newer releases. RTSP streaming
now works with vcpu=2 however there is a slight stuttering with the audio that I
cannot seem to get rid of. I''m having trouble figuring out how to set
the CPUID to a dual core instead of a dual cpu, can someone send me an example
of a dual-core cpuid config for my hvm config? I''m hoping the CPUID may
solve this stuttering audio issue.
4. What are the latest GPLPV drivers to use with a non-stubdom DomU? Are the
GPLPV drivers still required with stubdom?
Thanks in advance.
