-
- If you are upgrading from official xen 2.0.6 packages (or unofficial 2.0.7
- ones) be careful: manual intervention is needed before you can boot into your
- new Xen 3.0 system. In particular you *must* upgrade both your Domain 0
- kernel and your unprivileged domains ones with a xen-flavored version of
- Linux 2.6.12. Instructions for how to do so are provided in the
- README.Debian file, as they are useful for new users of Xen too.
-
- Also please note that Xen 2.0.6 has a bug and before getting removed
doesn''t
- shutdown your domains. This, together with the fact that xen-utils for Xen
- 3.0 is incompatible with the 2.0 hypervisor means that you won''t be
able to
- control your domains after upgrading, other than through the network. So
- please shut them all down before upgrading to this packages.
-
- If you want to be really sure that nothing will go wrong please reboot into
- a normal Linux system before upgrading, upgrade from there, build the new
- kernels, and only then start your new Xen 3.0 system.
-
- On the good news side: Xen 3.0 is able to automatically baloon down your
- Domain 0 to the value specified in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp. For it to be
- able to do so, just remove your "dom0_mem=" option from the xen
kernel line in
- your grub.conf, and also the "mem=" option from your linux module
line.

-Xen for Debian
---------------
-
-* About /lib/tls:
-
- Since Xen guest machines have to work in non-contiguous areas of memory,
- they cannot support a segmented glibc efficiently. If your glibc is
- segmented Xen will have to emulate the support, with a high performance
- penalty. To solve this problem you just have to execute this command:
-
- mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.disabled
-
- Unfortunately we cannot do this ourselves when you install Xen or at any
- other time, without breaking the Debian Policy and thus provoke the Wrath of
- the Gods. We know that this solution is not optimal, especially because
- every time you upgrade the glibc package /lib/tls will be restored, and
- you''ll have to
-
- rm -rf /lib/tls.disabled
- mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.disabled
-
- again. We''ll be working towards a better solution, but for now this
is it.
- Please remember to always keep your system tls disabled.
-
-
-* About the kernel:
-
- Unfortunately for now we cannot provide precompiled Linux Kernels with the
- xen patch applied and configured to work in a Domain 0 or in an unprivileged
- domain. The only thing we can give you is the patch, which is included in
- the linux-patch-xen package. You are expected to install this package,
- download a 2.6.12 kernel from kernel.org (this is the version supported by
- xen right now. The patch will make it a 2.6.12.6+xen kernel) and roll your
- own kernel.
-
- After you''ve done so you can add a section similar to this one to
your
- /boot/grub/menu.lst file in order to boot your xen system. (Only grub is
- supported on Xen systems, if you''re a LILO fan we''re
sorry, there''s no way
- you can use Xen without switching, and probably there will never be)
-
- title Debian Xen+GNU/Linux
- root (hd0,0)
- kernel /boot/xen.gz
- module /boot/xen-linux-2.6.12.6xeno003 root=/dev/sda1 ro
console=tty0
- boot
-
- Of course you have this example supplying your own kernel path and root
- device in the module line in order to have a working Xen system after a
- reboot.
-
- We will provide a "roll your own xen kernel" manual and example
config files
- later on. We also hope to be able to provide complete Xen kernels, sooner or
- later, so don''t despair! (Well, do, since in the meantime you have
to do it
- yourself anyway, if you want to try Xen... But don''t give up now,
compiling
- a kernel is not hard, and trying Xen is worth learning how to do it!)
-
-Kindly yours,
-
-Guido Trotter, for the Debian Xen Team.

-xen (3.0.1-0tha3) unstable; urgency=low
-
- * updated to testing changeset 8743 (xen 3.0.1 + some patches)
- * added bash to dependencies, because some scripts actually needs it
- (even if only "/bin/sh" is set as interpreter in those scripts,
so a
- better solution would be if upstream removes the bashisms at all).
- thx for the report by Paul Wagland <xen+paul@kungfoocoder.org>.
- * changed hotplug/udev dependency to: "hotplug | udev
(>=0.059)", because
- older udev versions doesn''t work with xen and then hotplug is
needed.
- * changed debian/libxen3.0.install a bit, so that it will install
- the svmloader (for amd''s pacifica) in future. so when svm support
is
- available in the stable xen upstream (most likely in 3.0.2) it will gets
- installed without further changes needed in the install-file.
- * xendomains should get stopped before xend, even in a .prerm file ;-P
- (but maybe there is a better solution, because the domUs doesn''t
really
- needed to be stopped on an upgrade).

-xen (3.0.1-0tha2) unstable; urgency=low

-
- * NEW UPSTREAM: xen-3.0.1 (in fact testing changeset 8738)
- * changed all python2.3 dependencies to just python,
- because this should help ubuntu users to use this package.
- * removed /usr/local/sbin from xen.install, because now all binaries
- are installed in /usr/sbin & /usr/bin instead (thx to upstream).
- * added /usr/include/xen/linux/*.h in libxen-dev.install

-xen (3.0.0-0tha13) unstable; urgency=low
-
- * NEW UPSTREAM: xen-3.0.0 + testing (changeset 8270)
- * fixed a critical bug in this package for amd64. libraries are not
- supposed to exist in /lib64 or /usr/lib64. Installing them in /lib or
- /usr/lib is the correct location, even on amd64 machines.
- Before -tha13 a libc6 upgrade will fail because of libraries in the
- wrong location. This is a xen package issue as well as an libc6 issue,
- but I can only fix the xen related ;-)
- * removed the useless "sarge is not allowed to use udev"
dependency,
- because even if udev is too old in sarge, not allowing an installation
- of udev will make xen not installable with for example gnome at the same
- time. If udev is too old, xen will automaticly use hotplug, so this
- dependency can safely be removed.

-xen (3.0.0-0tha12) unstable; urgency=low
-
- * The "hmm, there is always something to fix" release...
- * changed the depends for udev to udev (>=0.059), because udev on
- sarge is too old for xen and if udev is installed it makes hotplug
- not working as fallback. So on sarge udev is not allowed to be installed
- when xen is going to be installed anyway. (thx to Alvaro del Castillo for
- the report!)
- * Change the year in the changelog from 2005->2006 for entries from now
on.
- * changed the kernel mirror from http://www.kernel.org to
- ftp://ftp.de.kernel.org, because the main mirror is sometimes really slow
- for european users. If someone want''s to change that again, please
edit
- Config.mk
- * removed debian/TODO, because it was very old and not up-to-date...

-
- * NEW UPSTREAM: xen-3.0.0 + testing (changeset 8269)
- This should fix some minor problem of the 3.0.0 release, see upsream
- changelog for details. Xen''s project leader (Ian Pratt) advises to
use
- testing for production systems at the moment, so I switched my
- xen3-stable release to testing for now.
- If you have build your own kernels for xen, then please rebuild it
- with the new linux-patch-xen to have the testing fixes in your kernel
- and so that hypervisor and dom0/domU kernel matches the changeset.
- * NEW: Binary images are available for dom0/domU kernels.
- You don''t have to (but still can) compile your own kernel.
- Just install "linux-xen0-2.6" with apt-get from the same
repository you
- got this package from and follow the instructions that will get shown.
- The kernel images are available for i386, i386-pae and amd64. They are
- available at least in sid and sarge. etch might have a not working
- "make-kpkg" at the moment, so there is probably no kernel image
for etch
- at the moment (should change in future of course).
- The kernel images are not tested as well as the xen packages, so please
- let me know if you have any problems with the new kernel images at all.

- change on debhelper/dh_install in sid/unstable. d''oh!
- * added bash to build-depencies, because of some bashisms in configure
- scripts in upstream (thx to Saku Ytti)
- * changed the handling of excludes for amd64 a bit to include all python
- files for amd64.
- * bridge-utils is now recommend not only suggested.
- * added libncurses5-dev to depencies as suggested by dpkg-shlibdeps
- (needed for xenmon.py ?)
- * the kernel-patch now will create a amd64 and i386 subdir and patch
- script. the diff is the same for both architectures (thx to Saku Ytti

- * the linux-patch-xen package is now useable. The upstream version for

- The EXTRAVERSION (currently ".6-xen") gets stripped off, because

EXTRAVERSIONS.
- But the linux-patch-xen patch patches a vanilla 2.6.12 kernel to
2.6.12.6-xen,
- even if EXTRAVERSION doesn''t reflect that correctly.
- With make-kpkg you can add the EXTRAVERSION again with the flag:
- --append-to-version .6-xen

+xen-3.0 (3.0.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ If you are upgrading from official xen 2.0.6 packages (or unofficial 2.0.7
+ ones) be careful: manual intervention is needed before you can boot into your
+ new Xen 3.0 system. In particular you *must* upgrade both your Domain 0
+ kernel and your unprivileged domains ones with a xen-flavored version of
+ Linux 2.6.12. Instructions for how to do so are provided in the
+ README.Debian file, as they are useful for new users of Xen too.
+
+ Also please note that Xen 2.0.6 has a bug and before getting removed
doesn''t
+ shutdown your domains. This, together with the fact that xen-utils for Xen
+ 3.0 is incompatible with the 2.0 hypervisor means that you won''t be
able to
+ control your domains after upgrading, other than through the network. So
+ please shut them all down before upgrading to this packages.
+
+ If you want to be really sure that nothing will go wrong please reboot into
+ a normal Linux system before upgrading, upgrade from there, build the new
