Hi All, What''s the minimum gcc version needed for building xen 1.1? Gcc version 2.95 is giving me parse errors. I couldn''t find this documented anywhere... Steve -- Stephen G.

Use 1.2 - it supposedly fixes this as well as other issues. On Thu, 15 Jan 2004 stevegt@TerraLuna.Org wrote:> Hi All, > > What''s the minimum gcc version needed for building xen 1.1?

How is 1.2''s runtime stability?

According to Keir it is the most stable baseline right now. I''ll be doing a trial deployment at work, giving each developer his own sandboxed Linux instance, so I''m hoping it is rock-solid. If you''re sitting on the fence, I can let know in a couple of weeks. In the meantime, one would hope that others chime in. -Kip On Thu, 15 Jan 2004 stevegt@TerraLuna.Org wrote:> How is 1.2''s runtime stability? > > On Thu, Jan 15, 2004 at 06:37:03PM -0800, Kip Macy wrote: > > Use 1.2 - it supposedly fixes this as well as other issues. > > > > On Thu, 15 Jan 2004 stevegt@TerraLuna.Org wrote: > > > > > Hi All, > > > > > > What''s the minimum gcc version needed for building xen 1.1?

> How is 1.2''s runtime stability?We intend to officially release 1.2 in the next few days, along with an updated demo CD. The only thing that was holding us back was the lack of python user space tools for virtual disk management, but Mark Williamson has just completed these. We''re short of proper user documentation for all the new domain control tools, but there are enough comments in the example scripts to figure things out, as well as documentation strings in the python library. I haven''t heard of any stability issues, and I can think of at least a couple of bugs that are fixed in 1.2.

Debian woody stock packages.Grr.. This looks due to our cheesy strategy of copying the gcc stock stdarg.h into the Xen tree (so that we can then specify -nostdinc and not get other random ''standard'' headers pulled in). I guess the stdarg.h packaged with various versions of gcc are mutually incompatible. Can you try building with 2.95 again, but first copy /usr/include/stdarg.h to xen/include ? If that works then I can make a suitable fix to copy in an approriate stdarg.h. -- Keir ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.

I''ve pushed a suitable fix for 1.2 and 1.3 (the current unstable release). -- Keir ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
