[Fedora-xen] Forward-ported Xen dom0 kernel patches for Linux 2.6.29 and 2.6.30 available
Hello! For reference here are the latest Xenlinux 2.6.18 forward-ported patches to standard/kernel.org Linux 2.6.29 and 2.6.30. Forward-porting has been done by Novell for OpenSUSE. Novell also has a forward-port to 2.6.27 for SLES11. See this thread for the latest patches: http://www.nabble.com/2.6.30-dom0-Xen-patches-td24293721.html Patches for 2.6.29 and 2.6.30 available here: http://code.google.com/p/gentoo-xen-kernel/downloads/list Also available here: http://x17.eu/xen/ Someone interested in building Xen dom0 capable kernel for F11, based on these patches? These patches are still more stable and mature than the pv_ops dom0 code.. Also, these patches have the full Xen feature set (pv_ops still lacks some features). If you have any problems with these patches, please post to xen-devel mailinglist. -- Pasi

Thanks, William
